Do you know the guide to electronic music by ishkur? This is very cool. Someone must do something like this for psychedelic trance. :D

(Maybe not in flash. HTML5, CSS3 and JavaScript do it better ;) )

I'm in for this!

 

If someone wants to develop this, I'd like to help. We could find a way to sync the information on the PDF to automatically update the web guide.

Module Virus is not Twilight. It's UK style psytrance/full on (or Doof as I call it).

UK style has characteristics from full on, darkpsy and prog as well, there are no climaxes and few, almost zero melodies.

Ok, I'll rectify it ;)

 

EDIT : All right, I replaced it by "The Colour Of Time" from Tryambaka. You can re-download the PDF.

Very good introduction. Generally thorough and largely correct. It's inevitable that you'll get a lot of comments about various details - can't do anything about that, but no one would deny that this is a solid document by someone who knows their stuff.

I see you added my album "Elysium - Dance For The Celestial Beings" to the "Natural (Psy)trance. I am not sure it's correct according to your own categorizing saying:

"style whose sounds are entirely or partly derived from conventional instruments and not of electronic sounds"

 

95% % of all sounds on that album is made from synthesizers and only very few samples are from natural instruments. I do see your point but not really sure my album fit the category :)

Hi everyone,

 

I need your help :)

 

sam-weneedyou.jpg

 

I need a listing of labels for each sub-style and then integrate them into the pdf.

Just one constraint is imposed: no more than 3 labels for each sub-style ;)

 

For now I've already some of them :

  • Old School Goa : Dragonfly and DAT
  • New School Goa : Suntrip, Neogoa and Timewarp
  • Nitzhogoa : Sita
  • Full-On : Kinematic and Vertigo
  • Psycore : Horrordelic
  • Forest : Parvati, Forestdelic and Sanaton
  • Twilight/South Af Twilight : Nexus Media, Timecode and MMD
  • Hi-Tech : Noise Poison, Osom Music and Kamino
  • Psyprog : Iono Music and Ovnimoon
  • Dark Psyprog : Zenon and Cosmic Conspiracy
  • Suomisaundi : 6-Dimension Sound and Antiscarp
  • Psybreaks : Broken Robot
  • Psybient : Ultimae and Altar
  • Experimental : Psy-Harmonics

Phonokol for old school, it was a big label, actually the label that got me into goa trance but obviously there were plenty of important labels (Matsuri, Blue room, etc.)

 

Iboga should be mentioned somewhere, I guess in psyprog?
