Oopie Posted November 17, 2010 Share Posted November 17, 2010 That's one of my all time fav'es Draeke. Technossomy - VTOL New Born - The Observer Symbiote - Phantasmagoria Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
psyhoe Posted November 17, 2010 Share Posted November 17, 2010 For me it's definitelly: Jörg On Mushroom - The Messenger Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Procyon Posted November 17, 2010 Share Posted November 17, 2010 I may be mistaken, but isn't EPIC trance the definition of 1980's trance? To me, Cosmosis IS goa or psychedelic trance. Anyway, what comes to my mind is Usura - Open Your Mind, Dance2Trance - Power Of American Natives. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JonCrow Posted November 18, 2010 Share Posted November 18, 2010 I dunno about banal definitions but for me the Goa/Psytrance sound or theme is generally synonymous with the word epic. Epic is not only the track itself but the feeling that's arising in our being when listening. Who can place a barrier on what combination of sounds that might be to bring about such a state in the listener. So to pluck a couple of tracks from my limited listening library to contribute to this thread I will post a few very well known tracks that I love for the hell of it: Tandu - The System, Rodeo, Alien Pump Cosmosis - Spores from Space MFG - New Kind of World track Jaia - Brainstorm, Mai Mai Transwave - Cycles of Life Indoor - Shiva Chi A.D. - Eye am the I Doof - Angelina Pleiadians - Maia Sandman - Shockwave Blue Planet Corporation - Crystal Filteria - Daze of our Lives, Sky Input Merrow - Born Underwater, Poseidon Lullaby, Citrus Circus I could go on........ The track slamming into my skull right now on Zirrex - Lost in Time is pretty damn epic: It happens to be the title track 6, Lost in Time on the High Noise Disc. Very nice! Epic is incredibly personal. Not always racing, maximal melodic mentally orgasmic and peaking. I had such an epic experience recently with the downtempo Galaxy Science of Ecstacy when it really clicked into aural gear for me one night. Apologies if I've not danced along with the intended theme of your thread. =) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ormion Posted November 18, 2010 Share Posted November 18, 2010 I don't think anything can top Talamasca-Sinai in terms of epicness. Other nominees are Crop Circles-Lunar Civilization (original and Filteria remix) and Filteria-Galactic Rays & Navigate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drosophila Posted November 18, 2010 Share Posted November 18, 2010 when I think of epic psy-trance I can't help think of millennium type "Israeli" stuff like Infected and Psysex etc. (and later Misted Muppet stuff)... examples: Infected Mushroom - Dracul Infected Mushroom - The Missed Symphony Infected Mushroom - Roll Us A Giant Infected Mushroom - Spaniard Psysex - Dirty 80's (Psysex on Mushroom) Panick - Soul Calibur The Misted Muppet - The Mist The Misted Muppet - Cat Visions Max - Scribble Fox Max - Eternal and definitely also: Jörg On Mushroom - The Messenger Epic Goa - I have a difficult time finding something that tops: Pleiadians - Maia Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JonCrow Posted November 18, 2010 Share Posted November 18, 2010 Yeah! I forgot to post some Infected. I've had some amazing moments with some of their tracks. Also: Koxbox - Space Traveller Koxbox - Neurobic Prometheus - Snakes and Ladders The Delta - Pop, Travelling at the Speed of thought, Thing, Delter Skelter, As a Child I could walk on the Ceiling The whole of RA the 9th is one epic track So many more! Whenever I feel a track to be epic, it's as though something important is happening while I'm listening. When I get that feeling from an artist, album or track I try to save and store it and only play it at certain times or moments so as to not lose that magic from excessive repetition. For that reason I'm kind of glad to have gotten into psytrance a bit later and when I'm a bit older because when you're younger you tend to go a bit crazy and play your favourites over and over again, perhaps ruining them. I don't like some of the old TIP, Tantrance, DTG and Goa-Head compilations in a sense because they have a tendency to tap into some of the same nice classics and I worry about their epicness being ruined for me. Being able to cherry-pick 15+ years of psytrance development for THOSE moments and feelings is pretty exciting! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
draeke Posted November 19, 2010 Author Share Posted November 19, 2010 yeah maybe this topic has a lot of tracks that are repeated on countless topics but i like all the response so far, i wanted to make a best off of long journeys and all this imputs made my selections easier.

Other than that, I have always thought that Domestic Mushroom - Scotch is one of the most epic Psytrance tunes to date. The way the melody comes up...gets me everytime.

travbrad1001 Posted January 7, 2011 Share Posted January 7, 2011 hm, i am not sure... but maybe; Jörg On Mushroom - The Messenger 3's a bunch! I have no idea what "epic" trance means or where it begins/ends, but I too dig Jörg On Mushroom - The Messenger Dancing with Kadafi seems pretty epic to me, but no idea if thats "epic trance" or not.

Jason Pandanandi Posted January 28, 2011 Share Posted January 28, 2011 GNOtR - Ring of Fire Indoor - Shiva Pleiadians - Maia, Headspin Sandman - Bad News (New Way) Xenomorph - Hallucinatory Spheres Hallucinogen - Shamanix all for different reasons. the climaxes of the Sandmana and Xenomorph tracks on here are REALLY epic to me, even if they're a bit understated.
