My latest psytrance find:

Kamakazi

I saw him play a live morning set at a doof last weekend, and I was so impressed I sought out
one of his EPs at Dark Records

He's a guy from Sydney Australia, with a heavy metal background (which always makes for good solid dark psytrance =D) and his music is awesome, so I was shocked to find out that he's only just starting up! Go son!
 
The compilation "Vibraspirit 23.23" (http://www.discogs.com/release/1055508) is highly recommended... clean - liquidy - crystalline - funky - ecstatic - lysergic - humor & spirit - killer basslines, & melodies like 200 mg of MDMA detonating in your brain!

...really the creme de la creme of full-on psytrance I think.

Trax 4, 5, & 7 are a good place to start...

^ Excellent track, Dalfir!

(+) smooth, slinky, brooding, balanced, self-contained. night time trance that is still suitable for tripping (always refreshing for me, as many parties where i'm from are 80% trauma trance). Really well-chosen sounds, with a stretchy spirally vortex feel. Nice bassline, taut and bouncy.

(-) maybe a little 'linear' sounding? It just kind of moves forward in a straight line... it would be nice to hear some more twists and turns, surprises, little details, etc. It's not a big deal, just trying to balance out my criticism :)
 
Thanks for listening man :P I do agree that our stuff is quite linear, but from a DJ a perspective we like having our stuff build up and break down accordingly in 8 bar blocks, just cuz when that track becomes a means to an end in a DJ set, it can be mixed relatively easily.

Shot again for the feedback, really appreciate it. :D
 
The Nommos- :) Kinda simple but nice feeling....

Has anyone heard the Kindzadza "Unreleased Tracks" thingy? Pretty damn good, but not an inch on Waves from Inner Space. I urge all to hunt this un-release down.

Also enjoying Enthegenics newest album, good to hear they've changed from th real shpongley sound of their debut....

Aye I've been listening to it for a few months now and enjoying it very much!

EDIT: That's not to say I didn't very much enjoy their earlier material. I love a big shpongley sound if it's good enough and I think they stirred the gravy just fine. Can't wait for Shpongle's new album also.

Omg, this guy is awesome.. i love 'dark' psytrance.. they play dark stuff sometimes here at doofs.. but it's usually a variation of stuff, although one of the last good ones i went too they did a 2hour set of dark psytrance, now that was just the best while tripping for me :)
 
^^ Awesome!!
The Sydney psytrance scene has a good healthy dose of dark psy :)
You should come over to tha East siiide! =D
 
Hey guys... I've decided that I want to go to a psytrance party. So I'm going to try go to the next one that's in the L.A. area. Anyone know what the next psytrance events that in SoCal are? Or where to look that info up?

Peace and love!! :) <3

Darkpsy hasn't really gotten its grips into Melbourne yet...I must say, I think the term dark is really innapropriate, when you compare it to, say, really dark music like agrotech/harsh EBM etc. I think its probably just more correctly called psychedelic....

I've been dabbling more in the unmelodic style recently, I should have a track shortly...:)
 
^^ Hmmm yeah I guess it's all relative ain't it?
But in terms of psytrance, I've heard some pretty dark and scary shit before! *droooools*

Agreed. But then you'll have to convince the melodic full-on lovers to admit their music of choice is more euphoric than psychedelic.

What about night-time psy?
