Anoebis Posted August 27, 2008 Share Posted August 27, 2008 Anoebis is a Teacher not a preacher, I Don't think he teaches religion. I really hope hes that kind of awesome kind of teachers who just looks awesome and giefs no homework and tries to indoctrinate all kids into being goa trance slaves. But personally, good luck! Well, I am Christian myself as well, but I teach it indeed, without preaching... in my old school it is a big mix of cultures anyway... it's more a historical and cultural thing mixed up with christian believes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Creationist or a Evolutionist? And i guess being a teacher is your dream as well? -suntrip records doesn't pay enough i guess, with all due respect of course. its nice that somebody practices teaching, we kinda need teachers don't we? On-topic But do we think that music carries a message? i believe that much electronic music doesn't have alot of messages, it's harder to look through. But there are some stories or themes to it, yes. But hardly any message that can be brought forward into Psymusic. Would it be too hard to remix some old Enigma and make it psy-like? of course filtering all those dirty messages out. XD Could be kinda awkward if suddenly in a Christian set; Moaning would pump out of the speakers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rotwang Posted August 27, 2008 Share Posted August 27, 2008 Well, I am Christian myself as well Nice to know I'm not the only one here. On-topic But do we think that music carries a message? i believe that much electronic music doesn't have alot of messages, it's harder to look through. But there are some stories or themes to it, yes. But hardly any message that can be brought forward into Psymusic. I for one like it that way. If I want a message I'll read the news, I listen to music because I want to hear something that sounds good. One thing I like about psytrance is that the samples used tend to be politically and religiously neutral, appealing instead to common spiritual values or just hedonism. That makes it feel more inclusive. There are a few darkpsy artists who like to fill their music with angry politics or horror samples, which I think is a shame - sure as heck isn't the kind of thing I want to hear at a party. They're in the minority though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thorn726 Posted August 27, 2008 Share Posted August 27, 2008 Frikkin AWEsome seems like the tracks i know of are already mentioned... no, We're no alone here! you can like weird crazy music and other stuff and still believe in good ole' Jesus some of it may not be Christian in origin, but i'd bet a ton of Israeli stuff has some sort of religious influence and that's close enough for me, same God just some of us are gentiles ALL music that gets you dancing crazy before God is good. You can make anything His to be ultra weirdo Chritstian about it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sunwolf Posted August 28, 2008 Author Share Posted August 28, 2008 Nice to know there are more Christians around here, and even someone from a goa record label. I totally agree it depends on how you listen to any type of music, not the music itself, as to whether it's healthy or not. And yea I hate when music includes offensive samples. I have no problem with samples about other religions or whatever of course I just ignore them, but some other genres just go way overboard. ALL music that gets you dancing crazy before God is good. You can make anything His to be ultra weirdo Chritstian about it+100 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pedro Posted August 28, 2008 Share Posted August 28, 2008 So, Sunwolf, you are going to introduce your righteous church-folk to the salacious pleasures of goa trance? Or do you mean psy-trance? Probably does not matter I suppose. The key thing is that it seems you want some spiritual message or words in them. But do you really need some silly "Go Jesus go! Rah, rah, rah!" lyrics in the track? Furthermore, the vast majority tracks in psy-trance do not have references to either drugs or to buddhas. You KNOW it as well as we do. So just play tracks that you find enjoyable and that you believe might make those mighty, god-fearing, good folks in your church feel compelled and inspired to wiggle their asses. I suppose if there are enough individuals like you then a new sub-genre might be even in the works - Christan Psy-trance! And we can add this to all the other types of obsequiously religious music such as Christian rock, Christian country and Christian rap. The Lord Jesus would be proud...

Anoebis Posted August 28, 2008 Share Posted August 28, 2008 such as Christian rock, Christian country and Christian rap. The Lord Jesus would be proud... And that made me think of a sample at the end of Rock Bitch Maffia of the Green Nuns: "Jesus didn't dance, but his beat goes on" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rotwang Posted August 28, 2008 Share Posted August 28, 2008 u know what comes from mixing up art and beliefs (it is called PROPAGANDA) Would you dismiss Handel's Messiah as propaganda? How about traditional Sufi music? If you answered "yes", that's your loss. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kryll Posted August 28, 2008 Share Posted August 28, 2008 Would you dismiss Handel's Messiah as propaganda? How about traditional Sufi music? If you answered "yes", that's your loss. are you talking in terms of white and black, and just gave a white example ? i don't think there's alot of grey involved in this in these times it mostly tends to be black, or dark grey *edit* ah yes, forgot to mention.. propaganda doesn't exist much longer than the beginning of 20th century ...

Rotwang Posted August 28, 2008 Share Posted August 28, 2008 And that made me think of a sample at the end of Rock Bitch Maffia of the Green Nuns: "Jesus didn't dance, but his beat goes on" Is that taken from here (start at 4:34)? Damn, I always thought that would make a good trance sample. e: Yes it is, and it seems that psydb is unaware of this. I will let them know.
