01-16-2010 YogiBogeyBox presents COSMOSIS Live and RASTALIENS DJ set

[YogiBogeyBox]

 

 

As you have learned to expect from YogiBogeyBox events, we are not much for musical discrimination or preferring one style over another as they all have their magic. However, when it comes to classic Goa trance, there is one artist that stands out in our minds above the rest. We are in the clouds about having the legend, COSMOSIS, come to NYC with the unique trance only he produces. Along with RASTALIENS, the Swiss trance wizards, this promises to be an unforgettable night and perhaps our best event yet!

 

 

 

And so here is the lineup:

 

COSMOSIS live (Holoponic Records, U.K)

 

Bill Halsey, the producer behind Cosmosis and Mumbo-Jumbo, is a former professional session guitarist from London who has performed with countless bands, playing Rock, Funk, Jazz, Blues, Pop and Hip-Hip. He has toured throughout Europe, Australasia, and Asia. Bill honed his writing and recording skills while composing and recording pop tracks for over ten years before he began creating pure electronic music. Now he's as much in demand as a composer as he is for live appearances, sharing his particular brand of tongue-in-cheek, full power Psy-Trance on dancefloors across the globe. During the past 12 years, Bill has played Cosmosis' music to ecstatic crowds in such diverse locations as Japan, Taiwan, Brazil, Israel, India, Bali, Germany, Australia, New Zealand, Colombia, United States, Egypt, Switzerland, Sweden, Hungary, Slovakia, Denmark, England, Spain, Ireland, Canada, Serbia, Scotland, Belgium, Finland, Holland, Greece, South Africa, Russia, France, Mexico and Portugal, and continues to play regularly in many of these countries. Bill divides his studio time between scoring music for animation, lazing about in a hammock with his acoustic guitar in the back garden, making full power dance music, and touring Cosmosis worldwide.

RASTALIENS (Phar Psyde Records, Switzerland)

 

Rastalians are Jurgen Kassel and Ralph Knobloch.

Since about 13 years they are DJ´s. After 3 years with dj-ing, Jurgen and Ralph realised, that the records from other people were not enough for them. And look at this, since about 9 years they are producing their own psychedelic trance. Rastalians started in a small cellar with a little soundsystem. At the beginning project just used simple software-synthies and a small sequenzer-programm. Because of their limited possiblities, it was not easy for us to produce a good quality of sound…Hard work and a lot of enthusiasm caused a booking from some friends in Switzerland. They wanted a live-act. Rastalians’ first set, which was played with some quite old synthies, as like Roland 101 and Korg Trident. On a special day, Jurgen and Ralph decided to send our first songs to some differnt labels around the world. Wepacked this CD´s together with all our positive vibrations and what happend: Yaniv, from Hadshot Haheizar released our first two songs. “FREAK BOOSTER” and “UNIDENTIFIED SPECIES”. After playing on many parties around the globe, like Portugal, Netherland, Mexico, Greece, USA, UK,etc. there was time for an album which was released also on Hadshot and more should follow on Boom! Rec.(which released also the 2nd album), Digital Psionics, Ketuh, Glowing Flame, and so on…

[ouroboros]

are there going to be problems with the venue like the alladin party?

 

those security people are out of control, and as you must surely know they ended the party 2 hours early....after turning the music down to half volume for an hour.

 

hello bk as a bad venue no one likes it there.

the "security" people are WAAYYY out of control. and the problems are getting worse each time. Last time i was refused re-entry because i "sighed rudely" at the bouncer. they told me to go stand in a corner and be silent until they said it was ok. it was about 3:30am and FREEZING cold and i did not have my jacket. they refused to tell me how long i had to wait and never let me in again. in the end i finally reached a friend who got my jacket for me and i left.

 

this time my friends were suddenly physically dragged off the dance floor, pulled out side and pushed down the steps outside. they were accused of dealing drugs (which was total BS). after much protesting at the physical treatment they had just been subjected to out of the blue my friends finally agreed to be searched since they had no other option. the search of course turned up nothing since they had not had any contact at ALL with drugs the entire time. never the less they were still refused re-entry even just to get there jackets from the coat check. eventually (after calling the cops and much arguing and yelling) they got someone to fetch the jackets for them and then they left.

 

Basically it's about the worst "security" i've ever seen in my 10 years of psy parties. so far i have never been to that place with out personally witnessing at least 4 separate incidents with them. of those at most one had any even vaguely legitimate reason (like no ID). the rest were purely them antagonising guests and seriously abusing there position.

optix...i hear ya man. while i personally never had a problem with the security, i see how they are. they are rude, pushy, and they are crazy with the searching. i was going to go to logic bomb last week, but dint because i was sick....didnt really bother me though cuz i really dont like going there. not only thet, but the place isnt even that good. the upstairs is ok, the sound system is no where near as good as they claim, and downstairs is just awful. it smells like a damp musky basement (because thats exactly what it is) and the sound system down there is just plain shitty.
