Mark Webber on a cybernetics visionary who believes man and machin e will become one Friday October 17, 2003 The Guardian Erkki Kurenniemi is preparing for the year 2060, when he believes that computers will be a ble to simulate the brains of all humankind. When the computer develops it s own consciousness and emotions, our bodies and minds will become redunda nt. Having first embraced cybernetics in the late 1960s, when he began to build some of the earliest interactive computer instruments, Kurenniemi ha s for many years been avidly documenting almost his every movement in not ebooks, photographs, audio and videotapes in order to make it possible for a human life to be reconstructed in the future. The films of Finnish dire ctor Mika Taanila give us precious glimpses into a lost era of idealistic thought and innovation. Topics that might easily be dismissed as kitsch od dities are treated with respect for their achievements and aspirations. Fo r Future Is Not What It Used to Be (one of three of his films touring the UK together this autumn), he finds a truly visionary subject in Kurenniem i, a scientist, artist, musician, film-maker, theorist and all-round cyber netic pioneer. In an early recording, Kurenniemi predicts: “In the early 2 1st century, people and computers will begin to merge into hyperpersonas. It will be hard to say where man ends and machine begins.” In 1961-62, a t the request of a professor, Kurenniemi started to create an electronic m usic studio at Helsinki University, building primitive computer processors from circuits and transistors. After eventually dropping out, he built hi s first synthesiser – the Andromatic – as a commission for Swedish avant-g arde composers Leo Nilsson and Ralph Lundsten. Towards the end of the de cade, as the hippy movement became more influential, Kurenniemi’s love of technology was diverted into creating instruments that would demonstrate t he love and togetherness of society. He believed in primary experience abo ve secondary observation, and his next innovation was the Electric Quarte t (1968). This “mutual instrument”, all jack plugs, curly cables and flash ing lights, was collectively operated by several musicians at the same tim e. In archival footage in Taanila’s film, a bowl-headed, serious young ma n with a goatee beard introduces a 1960s music programme similar to The Fa st Show’s Jazz Club sketch. In the background, three men sit cross-legged around the electronic brain, tugging at tiny joysticks, as the presenter a usterely reads a statement: “Young people find the existing system defecti ve. Underground’s efforts and ideas, which may seem quite odd, have a clea r function. We want to show that these notions are as rational as the poli tical decisions of this day and age.” In 1969, Kurenniemi built the Dimi -A, a small music processor that could memorise and repeat up to 500 actio ns. Controlled by a hand- held stylus on a flat, open circuit, it looks lik e a flattened Stylophone. It was the first of his instruments to go into commercial production, through the company Digelius Electronics. This was followed two years later by the video, or optical, organ, which is operate d by a conventional keyboard. The Dimi-O synthesiser, connected to a monit or and video camera, is able to scan a moving image and reinterpret it as electronic impulses that modulate the sound output. The system is demonstr ated in footage from a TV science programme in a spectacularly modern way, using expressive dance and video feedback; it all looks like a crazy fus ion of Blue Peter and Tomorrow’s World. The Dimi-O was also used in an exp erimental production of Samuel Beckett’s Act Without Words II at the Unive rsity of Oslo in 1972. A third machine brings to mind the Orgasmatron fro m Woody Allen’s Bananas. Colloquially referred to as the “love machine”, i ts technical title was the Dimi-S, or Sexophon. A series of diodes and se nsors connect three or four people to the machine by “handcuffs”. The soun ds are created by the participants touching each other, with the variation s in sensitivity regulating the output. It’s Musical Twister; gropes and g iggles. With clothing being a too-efficient insulator, more satisfying mus ic could be created by scantily clad (or nude) participants. The music p roduced on these and other instruments was built on a foundation of primit ive sequencers, not unlike the bass stations in which acid house was creat ed 20 years later (just add percussion and away you go). Kurenniemi’s repu tation as a musician was not helped by an almost complete lack of availabl e recordings. This problem was recently addressed with the release of a 12 -track CD of electronic and tape compositions, called Recordings 1963-73, that shows Kurenniemi to be an unacknowledged contemporary of John Cage, P ierre Schaeffer and Karlheinz Stockhausen. It also positions him as a dir ect precursor of Finnish avant-garde duo Pan Sonic, who have been active i n trying to gain recognition for such early, obscure works. Digelius fail ed to capitalise on Kurenniemi’s technical innovations, and following the company’s bankruptcy, Kurennemini worked in industrial robotics for many y ears. Later TV footage from the 1980s shows him predicting the ubiquity of home computers and our future reliance on technology. In 1983, he’s seen playing his favourite computer game in his office: “It’s a peaceful war ga me.” Kurenniemi continued to believe in the advancement of the human race through science, and his idealistic aspiration for the future is that ev eryone will start to “make science, rather than endlessly watching sports on TV”, working collectively to solve problems, for the good of the whole planet. His interests lie in the unsolved questions that will really chang e man’s view of his place in the universe, such as colonisation of the moo n and Mars. “If we are going to make war, better to do it in space. The so lar system will not be cramped.” For the “manic registration project”, w hich has occupied Kurenniemi most recently, he claims to have been taking 20,000 photographs per year, “and I should perhaps double that to some 100 per day”. Each is touched up and filed on a hard drive for future referen ce. Piles of scrapbooks keep every sales receipt, tram ticket, stamp, and magazine cutting. “If freezing and reviving a body can’t be done biologic ally, let’s store the mind and the consciousness in bytes. It makes sense to have a backup by registering everything: images, sounds and thoughts. In 50 years from now, they can be fed into a pocket computer.” Considering himself part of one of the last generations that medical science will be unable to save biologically, his obsessive documentation will provide the raw data with which to preserve and construct his “virtual persona” at any point in the future. Returning to his ideological roots at the end of t he film, Kurenniemi speculates on a time in the future when people, facing another 100,000 years of uneventful life, will having nothing to do but make inter-active video art, compose music and study old archives, like th e one he is creating, “…or maybe they’ll just watch porn.” Three Fi lms by Mika Taanila, including Future Is Not What It Used to Be, tours unt il November 6.

In the background, three men sit cross-legged aroun d the electronic brain, tugging at tiny joysticks, as the presenter aus terely reads a statement: “Young people find the existing system defect ive. Underground’s efforts and ideas, which may seem quite odd, have a clear function. We want to show that these notions are as rational as t he political decisions of this day and age.” In 1969, Kurenniem i built the Dimi-A, a small music processor that could memorise and rep eat up to 500 actions. Controlled by a hand- held stylus on a flat, open circuit, it looks like a flattened Stylophone. It was the first of his instruments to go into commercial production, through the company Dige lius Electronics. This was followed two years later by the video, or optical, organ, which is operated by a conventional keyboard. The Dimi -O synthesiser, connected to a monitor and video camera, is able to scan a moving image and reinterpret it as electronic impulses that mod ulate the sound output. The system is demonstrated in footage from a TV science programme in a spectacularly modern way, using expressive danc e and video feedback; it all looks like a crazy fusion of Blue Peter an d Tomorrow’s World. The Dimi-O was also used in an experimental product ion of Samuel Beckett’s Act Without Words II at the University of Oslo in 1972. A third machine brings to mind the Orgasmatron from Woody Allen’s Bananas. Colloquially referred to as the “love machine”, its B Rtechnical title was the Dimi-S, or Sexophon. A series of diodes and s ensors connect three or four people to the machine by “handcuffs”. The sounds are created by the participants touching each other, with the va riations in sensitivity regulating the output. It’s Musical Twister; gr opes and giggles. With clothing being a too-efficient insulator, more s atisfying music could be created by scantily clad (or nude) participant s. The music produced on these and other instruments was built on a foundation of primitive sequencers, not unlike the bass stations in B Rwhich acid house was created 20 years later (just add percussion and away you go). Kurenniemi’s reputation as a musician was not helped by a n almost complete lack of available recordings. This problem was recent ly addressed with the release of a 12-track CD of electronic and tape c ompositions, called Recordings 1963-73, that shows Kurenniemi to be an unacknowledged contemporary of John Cage, Pierre Schaeffer and Karlhein z Stockhausen. It also positions him as a direct precursor of Finnish a vant-garde duo Pan Sonic, who have been active in trying to gain recogn ition for such early, obscure works. Digelius failed to capitalise on Kurenniemi’s technical innovations, and following the company’s bank ruptcy, Kurennemini worked in industrial robotics for many years. Later TV footage from the 1980s shows him predicting the ubiquity of home co mputers and our future reliance on technology. In 1983, he’s seen playi ng his favourite computer game in his office: “It’s a peaceful war game .” Kurenniemi continued to believe in the advancement of the human race through science, and his idealistic aspiration for the future is that everyone will start to “make science, rather than endlessly wat ching sports on TV”, working collectively to solve problems, for the go od of the whole planet. His interests lie in the unsolved questions tha t will really change man’s view of his place in the universe, such as c olonisation of the moon and Mars. “If we are going to make war, better to do it in space. The solar system will not be cramped.” For t he “manic registration project”, which has occupied Kurenniemi most rec ently, he claims to have been taking 20,000 photographs per year, “and I should perhaps double that to some 100 per day”. Each is touched up a nd filed on a hard drive for future reference. Piles of scrapbooks keep every sales receipt, tram ticket, stamp, and magazine cutting. “If freezing and reviving a body can’t be done biologically, let’s stor e the mind and the consciousness in bytes. It makes sense to have a bac kup by registering everything: images, sounds and thoughts. In 50 years from now, they can be fed into a pocket computer.” Considering himself part of one of the last generations that medical science will be unabl e to save biologically, his obsessive documentation will provide the ra w data with which to preserve and construct his “virtual persona” at an y point in the future. Returning to his ideological roots at th e end of the film, Kurenniemi speculates on a time in the future when p eople, facing another 100,000 years of uneventful life, will having not hing to do but make inter-active video art, compose music and study old archives, like the one he is creating, “…or maybe they’ll just w atch porn.” Three Films by Mika Taanila, including Future Is Not What It Used to Be, tours until November 6.

Is it chilly? We (Peter and Wylie) took the 10pm speed boat from Thong Nai Pan on the north end of Koh Phagnan down to Haad Rin beach where we la unched an amphibious assault on what looked like somthing from Apacalypse Now. Imagine sort of a cross between a Wagnerian assault met with USO Tra nce party but instead of bombs and shells booming and flashing it was bass thumping and lights and fireworks. Along a 500m beachfront were no less than a dozen different bars each sporting their own indoor and outdoor sou nd systems. Roughly half of these were trance in its various denominations . There was TranceCore or Hard trance, the were three psytrance bars and there was House and Reggae and Hip Hop and Drumb and Base too. It was a cornicopia or virtual smorgesborg of dance music. The denizens comprised 5-6000 Aussies (45%) Euro trash (30%) and Thais (10-15%) in my estimation . Like New York I was the only American I saw. This was eerie because mo st of these people, boyz and girlz, dressed just like American surfers/tra ncers yet when they replied to my greeting, it was in German or Danish but mostly Australian. This party was so big that one could not possibly swe ep every bar and meet everyone. On the down side this made it a little imp ersonal and everyone was a litle stand offish (especially the white girls) . Though i saw a bunch of people tripping and several people ODing on appa rently acid or more likely Fungi, I failed to “get sorted” and after s everal attempts gave up. It was a much more alcohol based and a less psyc helic type party. This made it less intimate and “spiritual” if you know what I mean (I can’t belive I am witing this). As Mr. Machinelf was not pres ent I felt a call to duty and had my faced painted a la flourescent and do nned several Shamistic devices. This enticed many Aussies to take my pict ure (and a few Euros) but after that they that were done with me and my da ncing with their women was frowned upon. It was interesting to see such a h uge party but the vibe wasn’t as cool as our New York parties or even as c ool as Woodstock 94. Of course, some of this may be attributed to my bein g alone, not knowing anyone, and most likely being comfused with a drunken Aussie. I wish we could have all been there (i.e., except Kelly, Lisa, a nd NanOUCH! just kidding). It was fun to see all the drunken Aussies whic h with enough alcohol, drop the “u”. They are predominantly good natured surfer types that engage in horseplace and fall off tables and chairs and throw beer, water and sand on their good natured wormen who fight back in like manner. Then there were the local girlsprobably half of which were semi-professionalof which by default I shared many a dance. However, an d this is KEY, one must with care be aware of traces of an adams apple. E ven this is not sure-fire test in identifying a Lady-Boy. If their should ers exceed in girth their waist and they walk with an exagerated gaitRUN ! Or you know dow what ever you really want to do… Like all great outdo or trance parties, the best was the following dawn and morning. This weed ed out the non-trancers and really snotty Eurotrash. With this came the c razy uninhibited signs of exhuberance, affection and glee. The scene was u nbelievably beautiful with the sunrise casting light on the clouds above w hile itself was blocked by storm clouds. There was a heavy, warm and welc oming rain that only fueled the well kindled vibe. After which the sun bro ke out, it rained again and the sun came again and it rained with the sun out and people were swimming in the tourquoise surf …..It was great! Thi s continued until this sober trance warrior limped homeward at around 11am leaving two separate trance parties going the distance under prime conditi ons. This is your foreign correspondant wylie on the BWN “Brainmachines Wor ld News” -this has been a syndicated wylie transmission He Guys, I am back fro another installment. Well it is official both Peter and I h ave been slightly sausaged from the Sausage Monster. From Samui to Koh Ph gnan to Koh Tau it is very cheap to rent motor bikes which is the best way to get around. On Samui the fist night we rented Honda 4 stroke enduro bik es and the next morning we headed off to the mountain trails. I have to s ay Pete was a trooper and plowed right along on some fromidable climbs and mud pits, ruts, jumps, and deep sliding hills. Hats off Pete! At the to p of the Mountain there was waterfall and we stopped at at place called Unc le Min’s Magic Gardin where we got drinks and went swimming with a bunch of little local kids. They teased and taunted poor Pete taking his clothes a nd pulling the hair on his back. Apparently they had never seen a hairy ba ld white man like Petey beforewhich made me wonder what Gym teachers and for that matter refridgerator repair men look like in Thailand. Surroundin g the falls were strewn a memorable collection of buddhist (and multi-armed Hindu-esque) statues. THis was a great place to visit, swim and hang out. If I had a digital camera perhaps I would have attached some photos. We w ere able to descend the mountain, get to a gas station and have the mud cak ed bikes hosed off and return them just in time. This was a goood thing be cause we found out later that in the contract it specified that were not al lowed to take the bikes to the mountains. Ooops. The next day I rented tim e at a real motocross track by the hour on a really cherry ’91 Honda CR250 elsinore two stroke. After a half hour I was beginning for mercy but the t rack waas good an dI caught some nice air. Don’t worry mom they had all t he gear including helmet, boots and body armor . Alls i broke was two clu tch levers (right Tony?) Up to this point there were no injuries. On Koh Phagnan, our accomidations were on the North East of the Island. The only way to get there was by speed boat, or 4wd cab or dirt bike over the mounta in trails which were washed out roads with ruts and bumps and mud and slid ing sand. Petey and I again rented two 250 4 stoke enduro bikes. Petey’s had a rack and he bungied all his stuff down. I, with shorts on had all my stuff including guitar on my backand we set off. Of Course we didn’t k now that we would be going over the heavy duty mountain trails. I tried to jump a rut as I was being cut off by a jeep going tyhe other way. I slipp ed on the sand and sausaged my right knee! ( and broke the brake lever)!! Ater that we didn’t have any problems on Koh Phagnan. I met this crazy guy Marcos from Californai and we had som,e sixk rallies through the woods at night. WE were the fastest dudes on that Island. Tahiland is a GREAT! palsto rent good cheap bikes and ride of some really good challenging trails . But start slow, wear shoes and longt pants, ask for helmets, and go slow down the hills. Otherwise go Nuts! and Beware of the Sausage Monster!!! Oh yeah we had more of the same on Koh Tau. Except finally there was some good snorkeling sites at hard to get places on the Island. (More on diving and snorkeling later) I had a 4 stroke enduro and Petey got the 2 stroke honda 200cc. Poor Petey got bit by the bike as it had a “power surge” and he was left with a sausaged elbow. He is now on the road to recovery.

One day I went to war with Planet Earth. I p lundered the Mother. I raped her fertile fields. I enslaved her children, p luged extension cords into their hearts.

Th ere I felt The original orgasm. In an endless instant light was expanding ecstacy God faster than faster. I heard my heart beat for the first time. I saw it beat with every bolt of lightning every belt of laughter every eart h-creature’s cycle-sustaining-breathing-circulation. I heard my heart beat for the last time when it pum-pumped with every thought She had. Then, I c ould not know if this light’s source was I or Her. The lady planet had tr iumphed. She killed Me by reclaiming the hands, conqured my destructive pli ght by letting the suicidal tactic run it’s course.

#3297 Sat, 14 Feb 2004 20:14:01 Sat, 14 Feb 2004 20:14:01 A Special Game Made for Tonight Trancespotting version 6.0 Fun for the whole family! For Trancers 18 and up! Players: 2-200 Next game: TONIGHT! 50 archetypes and counting! Rules: Print out, take to party, cross off each Archetype as you encounter them, only one cross-off allowed per person, i.e. someone can’t count as an Armchair Trance Head AND a Freaker… The trancespotter who finds the most Archetypes wins.. and the Winner is my guest at an upcoming party (organizer must be willing) If you have Archetypes to add, email me. More fun categories listed at /goatrash 1 The African American (not to be confused with Blacks not from the U.S.) is a rare breed at trance parties. Those who are there have had to confound stereotypes and forge their own identities. 1 The American usually is a freak within their own society, therefore associates with an inherently non american dance culture, Often drinks, wears baseball hats, and has weird behavioral disorders. Unbelievably egotistical compared to other cultures. In the US the Americans are the ones who start drama and fights. This category is very broad and may encompass many of the species related here. 1 The Angry Upstart is usually young, will bad mouth parties, tries to find and slay the status quo… always holding out until they actually throw a party themselves. This short phase is always grown out of. Or beaten out of. These young pups are the constant heel biters of the Old Timer. 1 Armchair Tranceheads never go to parties anymore. Many are active on email lists. Like to listen to music at home where they have full control. If they get out (doubtful they imeediately convert to PsySnob (see below). See also Old Timer. 1 The Artist pours their lives out on the canvas, and doesn’t blink an eye when their creations get stolen. See also the Crazy Man and Woman 1 The Burner, if a newbie is usually at a trance party by mistake because “Trance Sucks” See the American, Techiem, Yuppie and the Costume Buffoon. 1 Bottom Fisher – that guy with the broom isn’t stupid, neither are the people who hang out after a party gets busted to help “clean up” when the lights go on! Benefits greatly from the Yuppie, and the Drinker. 1 The Cokehead is the bane of the trance scene, luring well heeled Yuppies into their clutches. When they get Djs on coke, you’ll notice the sets being always cut short and the music gets more repetitive. Some are into the Progressive mold. They have almost single handedly ruined several Organizers. See also the Talker. 1 The Communists are trancers who have decided to move in together in start a trance commune, a trance kibbutz if you will. Where piles of moldy Philip K. Dick novels meet weird art made of chocolate. Their endeavors are great news to Slackers everywhere. Once their dream commune happens, their events so are so warm and intimate that you don’t see them for weeks at a time. Prone to three day parties. Examples: CCC, Studio 1 The Cop (if under 100 people) is only there to help, can be ameliorated with a Logic Bomb CD or maybe by a friendly neighborhood Cokehead. Usually too busy chasing Ravers to give any thought to trance people. (if over 100 people) your worst nightmare. Because once you get a hundred people, statistics dictate that you will get at least a couple Naked Guys, Freakers, and OD’ers. 1 The Costume Buffoon only goes out when they have a costume. Are into “themes.” Build up huge collections of costumes. Would be great bank robbers. Can re-enter a party if kicked out. Sometimes have more than just water in their water guns. No one recognizes them when out of costume. See also Burners. 1 The Crazy Woman trance parties are unusual in that a crazy woman can enter the party and feel right at home, and no one realizes how nuts she is until the music stops (sometimes before) usually just a phase for most women. At some point there is a psychic/psychotic break with reality, and the woman has a very public nervous breakdown, sometimes but not always fuelled by taking too many ds. Prone to wailing and sometimes violence. Sometimes cursed with the Cassandra complex. Usually they are attractive. 1 The Crazy Man in a male dominated society, has a huge support system and is called “Gifted” for being so “out there.” A double standard, yes, but quite convenient whilst taking many many trance maidens to bed – or trying to. Trancers are advised to steer clear should they become angry and violent. 1 The Cult Leader is usually older, sometimes followed around by an entourage of young nubile New Agers, and tries to throw inherently illogical aphorisms in your face to confuse you (e.g. You are Nothing. Nothing is Everything, etc etc) will keep at it for hours until you sheepishly submit to their will. Then, you are pretty much done for as their hands slide down your pants. There’s usually one in every local scene. Usually goes through a d Nerd phase to aid in their brainwashing techniques (see the “Collector” subset.) See also the Old Timer. 1 The Day Tripper only goes to outdoor events, will drive hours to get to outdoor parties, and has a carload of camping gear. The elite have whole tents and are always ready for the next Rainow Gathering or outdoor festival (see Hippies) 1 DJ/d dealer is almost everyone at some point or another… They all want to “take you on a journey.” The higher levels can start revolutions. 1 The Drinker will save the Organizers by buying a lot of drinks from the bar, giving the bartneder somthing to do besides slug water bottles all night. The poorer elements (or, at parties with no alcohol allowed) will bring their own flasks or bottles of vodka. Many recovering K-heads become Drinkers. Drinkers are easily spotted, they are the ones rolling around on the floor or picking up other people and twirling them around (see OD’ers and Naked Guys) They are also the ones you can take home to have sex with. There’s weird irony becauser the founder of AA was a proponent of l. Should stores of l rise to late 90s levels the drinkers will become almost extinct. 1 The d Nerd knows the difference between 2Ci and 2CB. Loves 2cb. There are actually about twenty different subspecies of this subgroup detailed in the last issue of Tripzine, ranging from the Collector to the Thrill Seeker. (Courtesy of Fire, Earth Erowid) Usually friends with the Hacker and the Techie. Often called in to help the Freaker and/or the OD’er. 1 Fire Spinners – Covered in oil and leather these artistic beasts come bearing the flame and are often half naked. Likes to spin fire in the middle of the dance floor so they can feed their egos. Typical attention whores that make everyone stop and watch them instead of other dancers or the dj. Seen inside circles of people these leather-bound bastards are the “breakers” of the psy scene. (submitted by Josh at Init String) 1 The Dancer spends the whole party on the dancefloor, nonstop movement. If the Organizer and the DJ get everyone to become a Dancer, they will have done their jobs well.. A serious Dancer dances so much so that they forget how to speak english, or whatever language it is that they used to speak. And if they do manage to speak no one wants to talk to them because all they are supposed to do is dance, and there are so many of the ‘never-dancers’ tripping out on them, that if the dancer stops, a whole bunch of sid just went to waste. (Submitted by Jehan) 1 The DJ Groupie usually seen in the DJ booth, always waiting around for their idol to play, gives them cherrful pep talks no matter how bad the set went.

Commonly seen walking around and bitching about the sound system or the fact that the music isn’t dark/full/progressive/tech/glitch/polka trance enough for their selective taste. Most likely to hate 90% of what he/she hears and then bitch about it on a mailing list afterwards. The never smiling psy snobs are notorious for being the most un-friendly assholes on the dance floor. (submitted by Josh at Init String) Secret Tactics – Psy Snobs creatures can be very complex. They will sometimes apear to be just enjoying the music. Lying in wait as to ambush one of their unsuspecting friends. The friend dances up and says “the music’s great, huh?”. the psy/snob returns with “na, I don’t really like it” now the friends stumbles away confused by the negative effect his seemingly positive friend just had on them. The psy/snob has developed an ability to pretend to be positive while spewing negative crap at every body else. Go against the psy/snob and they will scream about how negative you are…….. (submitted by leafsunbear at yahoo) There are two major subsets of the Psy Snob, the Trainwreckspotter and the Track Nerd: 1 PsySnob Subspecies #1: The Trainwreckspotter waits around and listen for “train wrecks” in between tracks played by another DJ. Then, when they hear one, get a pained look on their face and shake their head, and tell everyone withing range how much better they could do. The dirtier elements of this subgroup can’t really speak cause they have been chewing their cheeks to threads for the past 2 hours.when they come up and ask for us to play “kll..ein, aaarber dukttooor” (if they are, say, Danish) and when you turn them down and say no. they don’t understand what you say and just reply with “cool” 1 PsySnob Subspecies #2: The Track Nerd knows every track, every year of release, which album or compilation it appears on, and which label published it. Is amazed when he/she shows up to a party and “hears a track they don’t recognize.” Is usually bombarded with questions by his/her friends such as “what track is this?” and “what compilation did this come out on?” Loves dancing and listening to the music, but sometimes has a hard time staying focused when an unreleased and/or recent relase is played that he/she has never heard before. Upon hearing it, the track nerd morphs into the QUESTIONER and asks all present “what track is this?” (anonymous) 1 The Raver you can spot these people a mile away, they have no fluoro pn them, and will show up if there absolutely is nothing else going on that weekend. Their subsets are the Thug, the Candy Raver and the Hardcore Head. All should be avoided for various reasons. Basically the thugs and hardcore heads will steal your bag or tag your lobby, and the Candy Ravers, well, they will kill you with kindness. 1 The Russian is a bit confused… new country, so many possibilities. Tends to be technologically adept. Forget the rude and boorish stereotype, 99% of Russians in trance are the nicest people you will ever meet. And the most idealistic, a carryover from communism. Some say they are genetically designed to be dark and brooding. The biggest surprise: they rarely drink. A subset is a dark squatter type who only listens to Parasense. All bets are off, however, when mixed with the Israeli. A Russian Israeli when not in jail or being deported is a wild child, often the grease that greases the serotonin levels of a crowd. A theoretical poster child for white supremacists in the Pacific Northwest, the Russian Israeli when on the skids is kicked like a football between the US amd Israel. 1 The Slacker only goes to free parties. If not kicked out the Slacker will stay at your house for daayyyyys. Sometimes they get smart at their slacking and learn to cook for you. Too lazy to actually have seen the movie. The Uber Slackers are from Austin. 1 The Sleeper, can be found awake usually at the beginning of the party, or when there is some technical faliure with the sound and the party temporarily ceases to exist. The sleeper is notorious for falling asleep in the mostly highly trafficed areas of the party, and often in ways that makes you wonder if they are even alive. The most intruiging quality of a Sleeper, is that often at the end of a party you will spot them sleeping, and you will smirk…. you will then get on with your after party plans, and go through hell and high water to get there, and when you get there, the Sleeper is already there! Sleeping! The Sleeper is notorious for one other thing… when they are not sleeping they are often the most viscious talkers. (see Talker) Submitted by Jehan 1 The Straightedge – not very common at trance parties, like the African American. Not related to the Straightedge punks in the 80s, straightedge trance heads find creative things to do with their brains, like producing “psychedelic” music for people on ds to dance to, er, never mind. They are to psy-trance what New Agers are to Goa. Closely related to Armchair Tranceheads and Progressives. 1 The Talker, is the bane of any l or ayawasca trip. Though trance parties generally have a lot of talkers, often in the darkest areas, waiting for a stray tripper to come their way… however a real Talker can only be found out in one way… when you encounter a person who talks alot, and is talking to you to the point where all you see is there mouth moving and the sounds may as well be a skipping track, suddenly walk away from the person, after a few steps, look back, if he or she is still talking and doesnt even notice that you are gone, then yes, you have just enountered a real Talker. Never ever tell a Talker to be quiet. They will be back before you know it in double force, sometimes after popping another E.

First seen in Toronto and MIT, who knows, everyone may become a Techie in the furture. 1 The Traitor *WAS* a goa/psy-trance DJ but now plays Progressive House. The worst of the lot. Kill them. Make sure to make recent converts from the Dark Side happy or they may defect, loudly complaining how many ds everyone is on and how difficult it is to get laid and how “they all suck” because “they don’t like my tracks.” 1 The polar opposite of a Traitor (an immigrant rather than an emigre if you will) is the Twilo Reject, a pill popping house head who somehow got to a party and tripped full on and has now found their new religion. Still has all their spandex shirts. These types are best fed a steady diet of Progressive until they are ready to make the psychedelic leap. 1 The Vigilante are that rarest of trancers, ones who embrace violence as a legitimate means. Will try to play cop when somthing gets stolen. Not afraid to get violent with purse thieves. Sometimes makes web sites about thugs. Having read too many comic books in their youth, Vigilantes have low life expectancies. Nevertheless they are effective at keeping “bad elements” out. Usually the one who duct tapes the Freaker to a tree 1 The VJ – Typically seen behind a computer screen mixing video and clicking on software the entire party. Drinks heavily and never socializes or dances. (submitted by Josh at Init String) 1 The Yuppy comes to parties, drinks, buys other people’s drinks, drinks some more.

At some poin t there is a psychic/psychotic break with reality, and the woman has a very public nervous breakdown, sometimes but not always fuelled by taking too m any ds. Prone to wailing and sometimes violence. Sometimes c ursed with the Cassandra complex. Usually they are attractive. The Crazy Man in a male dominated society, has a huge support system and is called “Gifted” for being so “out th ere.” A double standard, yes, but quite convenient whilst taking many many trance maidens to bed – or trying to. Trancers are advised to s teer clear should they become angry and violent. GCult Leader is usually older, sometimes followed around by an en tourage of young nubile New Agers, and tries to throw inhe rently illogical aphorisms in your face to confuse you (e.g. You are Nothin g.

He wants to find recruite rs who can help locate subjects who have done E but very little of any other d. Here is the kind of recruiter that John is looking for: In par ticular, then, we are looking for additional recruiters (who will be paid for any time they work on this project) who: 1. Reside in a metropo litan area of 500,000 or greater and that has a sizable Rave/E scene. 2. Has excellent knowledge of the E scene and the people involved . 3. Has reason to believe that there are fair numbers of young Ecs tasy users who have minimal to no exposure to other ds or alcohol. 4. Is interested in working as a part-time recruiter for this neurocog nitive and psychological study of Ecstasy users. 5. Affiliation wit h a college or university (as a student, post-doc, or other) is helpful BU T NOT NECESSARY. 6. Would like to help out on a cool project that, hopefully, will provide some real information on the persisting concerns o ver long-term consequences from E use… 7. MUST REPLY to me ASAP: No later than Friday, February 21, 2004. Many many thanks for your help. Potential recruiters may also email me with any/all questions…All that I need at this juncture is to secure a letter of intent from suitabl e additional recruiters… -John (johnhalpern at hms.harvard) Joh n H. Halpern, M.D. Instructor in Psychiatry Harvard Medical School Associ ate Director of Substance Abuse Research Biological Psychiatry Laboratory Alcohol and d Abuse Research Center McLean Hospital 115 Mill Street Bel mont, MA 02478-9106 Jehan Leaves, Finally! I just got a job as the 1st A ssistant Director (one step below the director) for a film being shot in London. And then I have to head the whole post production department (edi ting etc) in Bombay. its not Hollywood… its a joint British & India n production with a budget of 5 million pounds…. (and I also was told th at Elizabeth Hurley is acting in it… which I am not that pleased about because it means that it must be a quite a commercial film… but hey… )So I should be leaving NYC around March 15th, head to India for a month of pre-production, then London for 2 months to shoot the film (and hang ou t with Dino Psaras who I found out is a good friend of an ex-girlfriend of mine, dj Domino)… then back to Bombay to Edit the film, by the time i t is done it will be Oct-Nov, then I will go to Goa for the season. And t hen return to NYC next spring… (My employer is constantly producing fi lms in US, UK & India, so I should be moving between these three places fo r a while) So what about Sound Species? Sound Species continues here in NY, the other members, including new people that will be a part, will co ntinue to do parties here, plus supported by any new connections, artists, dj etc… that I happen to meet on my travels. Basically Sound Species is soon to be more than just NYC, plus Knobe just made some new bridges wi th people in Japan (he is returning on the 14th and will be playing at the Etnica party). So anyone in London or India over the next 9 months, kee p intouch, and the one place in NYC that I wont be leaving, is this 604 l ist, and I may just pop up for some surprise visits too… I am basicall y here for anohter month. So I’m looking to have a blast!! And hopeful ly will be able to do a party before I leave, if not, well then it will h appen after I leave. Bom Shiva.

My old roomate Lisa Spudic (not my ex gf Lisa Renko) is putting this all together and as usual putting her financial neck on the line, this time for a Party (it’s her first, really, since we and her still-bf Ethan first went to Save the Robots in ’95 to hear Gula and Miko play goa trance.) All in the name of achieving my personal dream: taking back the old Twilo space for the Psy-Trance community. I write this not as a favor to Lisa or Steve-O or Suzie or Jen or Guilleaume or Gavin or anyone. Just for my own personal circle berjherk. So if you care to help an old trance geezer wetly realize his dreams, everyone come out and show your support for psy-trance entering the 21st Century in style. There is so much work being done to make this a success – so many surprises I can’t name, but a big Gong comes to mind, Return to the Source style (who’s coming, if we succeed Friday!) Spirit is the most awesome venue for a any psy-trance event. One of Alex Grey’s most psychedelically spiritual works hangs in the foyer, and he’s taking over the top floor very soon as a way station the upstate Chapel of the Sacred Mirrors. Spirit as a venue has struggled a bit, finding its way since it opened in late November. The owner needs to see trance people filling up the venue. Then he’s realize he doesn’t have to suck the House Music cock in order for a “holistic” venue to succeed. Back in the day when I went to Twilo I always fantasized about a strong trance party in these walls, and now is our chance. If you hate progressive and are poor, save your strength. But if you are either, then please come! The house guys and their crowd will man the decks until around 2am, then Gavin, then Atmos live and Noma live through the morning! There will also be Drew Hannah, local gong egalo-revolutionary web himalayanvoices (resonant meditation close to Bryant Park!) and brainmachines. Everyone is welcome!

#3310 Fri, 5 Mar 2004 14:25:46 -0800 Fri, 05 Mar 2004 22:25:45 Bcc: Fri, 05 Mar 2004 17:25:45 From: “Ari D” arid69 at hotmailtext of interview with Talamasca TripOutNY meets DJ Lestat a.k.a. Talamasca Talamasca is the creation of one DJ Lestat, an acclaimed trance producer based in Paris, France. DJ Lestat began spinning trance-core records in 1992 and produced his first tracks as Talamasca in 1996. Now a family man and studio wizard on weekdays, he has become a favourite in the worldwide trance party scene during the weekends. Frequent travels have brought him to events in many cities and remote rural gatherings around the globe. In keeping with the good vibes of mutual support among the psytrance artists, he has collaborated on projects with leading producers like Nomad, Oforia, Spiral Trax labels, and tracks on scores of compilations easily found in anyones collection. And recently, DJ Lestat started up his own label called Mind Control. He is known for treating his audiences with intense signature journeys into melodic psychedelic trance. In anticipation of the Talamasca performance this weekend, here are some insights he has shared with us today. 1. Where are you right now and whats going on around you? Ok, lets begin it… actually I am home, in Paris, and many things are moving around me as you say!!! Some very good things….like a new to make my own….. not because we had an argument, like everybody will believe in the beginning, but because Christ of went to live in Ibiza, and we decided that because we had now different tastes, it is better to do or own compilations on our own labels, but we keep collaborating together in and if they receive some cooler ones he will send to mind control which is the name of this new label I am talking about… so everything is fine!!! 2. What has your tour schedule been like? Any memorable events you have played at recently? My schedule is quite busy… every week end in a different country, sometimes twice a week…..it doesnt leave you so much time to see your family (I have a wife and a kid….) and to make the music… (which take some time too!!!! specially if I want to play 100% unreleased like it will happen next week in your country… 😉 Now, to say that one party was much memorable than another, it is quite hard…..every single country is different….I remember when I played in Portland (Oregon) last summer…it was not really crowded but I felt that the people wanted to hear new music, and this gives you sometimes more energy that a 10000 people party where everybody is far from you….. 3. Where have you played in the States before, and how do you see the past/future development of the trance scene in this country from your point of view? Ohohoh… I love this question because I had this discussion with almost all the promoters with who I spoke in the US…which means in New York, Boston Dallas, Houston, and Portland…my point of view is that in your country, as long as you will not have an American band, respected all over the world in the same level as the big names of the scene, there will not be any reason for a major company, or a good distribution company to make a good promotion on it with the medias…. all kind of electronic music are coming form your country except trance…which is also another reason I think….and also the fact that English and American people are used to understand since they are kids the lyrics of the songs at the radio which is not the case in Europe because we have your songs at the radio (lol…) so, me, when I was kid, anyway I was not understanding a world of what I was listening, like 90% of European people I think… so the lyrics became much less important in the way of listening music… all together, I think it will give another 5 years to the American trance scene to begin to explode….and we speak here about a beginning.. I think now, it is still trying to find a good way to follow…but believe me, all the trance labels and artists are waiting for the USA to wake up!!! 4. To those who havent heard your music yet, how do you describe your sound? I like it…ehehe….it is very hard for an artist to speak about his own music without any demonstration track….but I would say that I classify myself in the dance floor music more than trance or goa trance, or any trance related name…my goal when I make music is simple…to make the people dance with a smile…there are many ways to do…I prefer the harmonic way…. I explain myself…when I was listening heavy metal when I was young, I hated electronic music because I was thinking that it was more noise than music…. I have a classical music experience with some years practicing piano, and I didnt understand this music…..when I heard trance, near 1992, I realised that it was possible to make real music with electronics, but not only…the infinity of possible sounds convinced me that this was the music for the future…and I promised myself to stay always more musical than noisy… 5. About the music you produce, how would you describe your creative process in writing the tracks? There are two ways for me…..or I begin by anything, like kick and baseline, and then I just add sequences, loops and effects, until I will have enough to build the track… or I know before beginning the track what I want (like in my Zodiac album concept) and then the process is more governed by the idea I have of the track I want to make…. I think you can compare it to the painter in front of his empty canvass….. There are no rules…… 6. What sort of equipment goes into making your live performances? Do you have a preference to DJ vs. Live PA? You have to understand first that I am working exclusively audio in my own studio I am using the pulsar audio card and software, with cubase sx, and of course a lot of plug-ins…so it is not really possible to do a 100% real live when I play in parties, because you can not rent a pulsar, and I will not move my studio every weekends…..so I found another way….some sequences of every tracks I play are configured with my master keyboard (the Nordlead) and then, I can affect any button of the Nordlead to any VST button, simply, I can move the equalisation of a sequence with the button of the cut off on the Nordlead…. you are following me? But the fact that my live acts are most of the time 100% unreleased, (except if I promote a new album…of course…) are compensating it…. Now, between live and dj, I don tknow… it is different…for big parties, I think live is better because you show your new music to the people, everybody knows it is yours, which normally is suppose to make you proud, and it is better promotion… But for more private parties, or not so crowded, or in little clubs, I think dj is much better, because you can change your set depending on the mood of the people…. the live is fixed in the computer, if people dont like it, you cannot change… dj you can….so you see, it depends on the party…. 7. How has your third album, Zodiac been received world-wide and what led you to make this concept album? It was a good response in the world…As expected….the idea of this album was coming from a very simple fact…. I wanted to find a kind of excuse to make some different tracks…. at the beginning I wanted to do the planets, but then I thought that the 12 signs will be more personal to anyone, and it was more a challenge, because everybody knows the meaning of each sign, even if like me you dont believe at all in astrology…. 8. Imagine your ultimate dream performance where and what kind of party would it be? What a question!!!! It would be I think somthing like Jean Michel Jarre…. I mean somthing BIG with millions of people in a very historic place and of course: FREE!!!!!!!!!!! But I would not say this is my ultimate dream because it is possible…. so what would I do after?? ehehe… 9. Whats the must hear track/album of the moment for you right now? You mean one of my tracks which are the most played or what I am listening the most??? Lets answer both….. for my track, for sure the most played this year was Aries, form Zodiac, the one with the guitar…. now, about what I am listening, it is more ambient music…. I spend enough time in the studio all day long, + the week ends in parties all around, always with this boom-boom story to not listen this home…. so we are speaking here about Schpongle of course, and all the music of this kind…. 10. Finally, anything to say to the heads youre about to rock in NYC? Yes……excuse my bad English and keep dancing!!!!!

#3311 Sat, 6 Mar 2004 22:08:12 Sat, 6 Mar 2004 22:08:12 Soular Records/Himalayan Voices Benefit NYC March 13 SOULAR d: Soular Records full on psychedelic trance benefit for Himalayan Voices with Spectra sound at the beautiful luxurious skylit Heaven & Earth Center in midtown Manhattan March 13th 10pm-8am Deeper in Zen (Soular Records, San Francisco) – Recently releasing their second full length CD, “Insight”, Deeper in Zen is whipping up a thundering storm of psychedelia for the dancefloor. Twisting minds and vibrating bodies of trancers looking for a real dose of full on madness. Deeper in Zen started in New York in 2000 and although he has relocated to the west coast of late, there is still an unmistakeable edge grinded from years of nurturing in the New York Trance scene. Jay (Soular Records LIVE CT/FL) Jay has been producing slamming tracks for several years now, and in 2003 he began performing live with Atmos in January and at Omnifestival in June. Come hear Jay play LIVE his newly crafted minimal progressive opus! Onnomon (Soular Records, Philadelphia) – Slated for his first full length CD to be released in late April on Soular Records, Onnomon has been writing trance for over 3 years. After playing numerous outdoor festivals last summer on the east coast and New Years in the UK, Onnomon is quickly gaining international recognition. His unique blend of hypnotic psychedelic groove and sublime sound design will make you search high and low for the nearest Pez dispenser. Alien Blue (NYC) Marisa straight outta Westchester will start the evening off with achey breaky choons in her inimitable way! Sexy down-tempo beats to start the night off……. Primate (NYC) You’ve seen dreadhead Jason suspended from hooks native American Indian style…… and tonight he is blasting the decks! Suspension pictures are here at web bmezine/ritual/risc001 This suspension will be featured in National Geographic, most likely toward the midsummer. Dragonlotus (Dragontribe/Gemini, NJ) Born In South Africa raised in Jersey, Kamal has been promoting psychedelic electronic music and culture since its roots in New York from the Acid Phizx Trance gatherings to all the shit going down now including his own family of psytrance in America. You will find this guy setting up sound systems and teaching the new order to the new breed, and always banging out the best of psytrance in all its styles. krsnalotus at aol web geminidj, Machinelf (Devotional Ministry of Trance, New York/Texas) Machinelf has been with the NYC trance scene since before Day 1. He’s continued to mimic the trance carrier wave’s ups and downs, co-founding the Devotional Ministry of Trance and numerous email discussion groups. To call him a quack for trying to be the obstetrician for the trance baby’s birth would be misguided. His preferred style is Parasense type full-on and mushroomy Paps-style morning shamanics; tonight he’s dropping the soundtracks for flights into hyperspace with a soular d edge. wrought with sexual appeal, tapestries that ooze spirituality and dark stand alone string art are all gateways into this artist’s soul.

#3312 Mon, 8 Mar 2004 18:28:31 Mon, 8 Mar 2004 18:28:30 Interview with Deeper in Zen meets Deeper in Zen by Machinelf Where are you right now and whatE280 99s going on around you? Living just north of San Francicso in Tiburon b y the bay. How was the transition from New York to San Francisco? Well it was interesting in the respect to the trance community and having to ma ke friends with a whole new group of people. I think we kinda took for gr anted the connections we had with the trance community in New York. All of the sudden we are standing in a party in and we donE280 99t know anybody. But it has been good overall. Met a lot of great peop le and there are plenty of trance producers out here as well to collaborat e with. How do you see the past/future development of the trance scene in this country from your point of view? Like most people, I dream of trance becoming a more predominant force in America, but I cant say I w ould hold my breath for it. I am still blown away that it is not a larger community here in the States. Places like Mexico, where people have a mu ch lower standard of living on average, will have 2000 to 4000 people show up for an outdoor party. Here, we are overjoyed if 600 to 700 show up a t an outdoor. Are we apathetic? Too mesmerized by MTV and their latest E2809CtrendE2809D. I am not sure. Maybe there are too many E280 9CcowboysE2809D in America, and as any good cowboys says, E2809Ctha t real men dont danceE2809D. Or maybe the typical attitude of Americans is that, E2809Cif it ain’t from around here, it ain’t no g oodE2809D. But the promising sign is that are more and more people in t he U.S. making trance music, so maybe that will help to boost the scene. People invite their friends to come hear them play, etc. But a lingering thought is still in my mind, if there are scores of E2809ChippiesE2 809D that follow bands like Phish, String Cheese Theory etc. that are on that E2809CpsychedelicE2809D vibe, why dont they more inte rest in electronic dance music? How was Japan? Japan was amazing, I w as really surprised at how westernized it has become. Maybe in my mind I had pictured it with more traditional architecture, but that is only in pl aces like Kyoto. The party was up in the mountains about 3 hours from Tok yo. It was half way up on the side of this mountain next to a river. Rea lly beautiful spot. The Japanese love trance and went at it hardcore, the y never stopped dancing or smiling. To those who havent heard your music yet, how do you describe your sound? I would have to say it is bit towards the dark feel . It is funny I don’t think i intentionally make it dark, but sometimes it is perceived that way. Since the majority of the samples in the tracks a re pretty positive and are about expanding consciousness/awareness I guess it is that yin/yang thing. Although I love to dance to be happy, at time s I also like to confront the intensity and fear that resides in us all th at we sometimes suppress. Or if and when we do let it out, it often comes out in negative and destructive ways. So finding a constructive and positi ve outlet for this powerful source of energy that resides in us all, is wh at I try to do in creating music. Although I have written some more E2 809Cmorning tranceE2809D lately since I seemed to get frequently sche duled to play just as the sun comes at outdoor parties. About the music y ou produce, how would you describe your creative process in writing the tr acks? I take in the largest lungful of d smoke I can handleE280A6E2 80A6. wait 7 minutes and then let Elves start working through me. Just kidding. Actually now, I am mostly nspired by other psytrance tracks tha t I hear. Ill hear a bass line that catches my ear in one track percussion in another, leads from another and that will get the creative juices flowing. Then with that in mind I sit down and go at it. I usual ly like long stretches so I generally will go at it about 8 to 10 hours at a time. It is to hard for me to come in to work on music for just an hou r or two and really get into the flow. How has your second album, E280 9CInsightE2809D been received world-wide? INSIGHT has been doing well, I had a friend who just went to a party in GOA on the beach just two week s ago and heard it played. So that is pretty inspiring. Imagine you r ultimate dream performanceA6 where and what kind of party would it b e? Oh, a dreamE280A6E280A6E280A6E280A6 Hmmm, probably someplac e exotic, like a small tropical Island, with waterfalls to play in when it gets hot, beaches with white sand to dance in, smiling faces, a great sou nd system and magical food of the gods for all! Whats the must hear track/album of the moment for you right now? I have been digging on Vibra lately, and then other various Full On tracks catch my attention her e and there. I havent really listened to much psy-tech or progre ssive lately, but listen to a lot of chillout and downtempo at home. Final ly, anything to say to the heads youre about to rock in NYC? Go od Space, Great Energy, Creative peopleE280A6E280A6.Its gonn a be INTENSE!!

It’s actu ally somthing we’ve been discussing on a local (non-psy) board in LA. How ever, the women (sorry, i gotta draw the line somewhere) in free thing is r eally only attacking the symptoms, not the root cause, of the Sausage Party Syndrome. Yes, in the short term, you can create an artificial balance thi s way, but after a while, if other steps aren’t taken, you’ll be back to sq uare one. The root cause of the problem, to me, seems that the emphasis on what creates a “good” event is very male-oriented. Yes, I realize that the re are women who are ‘ardkore into the latest releases and the most full-on dark, twisted sounds, but contrary to the bleating on this list, they’re not the majority in any scene, from psy-trance to polkak0re. Most of the girls I’ve spoken with, and many of the more “with-it” guys, realize that good music & a good soundsytem should be completely taken for granted when going to a party. That is only the first step, and yet most promoters focus all of their energy on it, and on the rare occassions they get it right, s top there and think their job is over. Bullshit! If you wish to create a h armonious gender balance at your event, it is vital that your organizationa l team is itself gender-balanced. A good balance of guys, gals, sassy fags, and bull dykes will always create a more inspiring shindig than 5 Dudes in Hoodies smoking cigarettes around the coffin. Let the dudes focus on what they’re good at – fucking up the sound balance and ruining the 2am – 4am ti meslot, while the rest work to create a more interactive environment. I kn ow there really isn’t much room for choice in NY, but given the chance, ven ue choice can make or break an event. The sound should be good ‘n proper in the main room, but not bleed into any secondary areas – there should be a reasonably well lighted (not fluorescent, not uv, somthing low-key) and qu iet area where people can congregate and talk. At outdoor events, there sho uld be shelter from the sun & wind, and variation in the surroundings – roc k formations in the desert, clearings in the forest, coral reefs on the oce an floor. A certain promoter in LA has an annoying penchant for large winds wept vistas covered in scrub no more than 2 feet high I no longer attend any of his events. Indoor events should always offer somthing to break up the monotony and allow participation, and an outdoor area should always be available (again, this might not apply in NY, where it is butt-cold 6 mont hs out of the year). Entertainment should not begin and end with the music out here, there has been an upsurge in circus-style festivities. Stiltw alkers, fire-shenanigans (not a good idea indoors, and not a good idea anyw here if they suck, which most do), marching bands, etc. Sixth-Sense did ver y well out here with it’s Psycho Dance Show interlude, somthing which the Dream Theatre has taken to new levels I’m not all that in favor of break ing the dance space at prime-time, but other people don’t seem to mind too much, and both those promoters achieved a good gender balance at all their events. As for lighting, put a bit of effort into it if you’re going to do it at all. NO: Strobe lights, Fog Machines, cheap “Intelligent” lighting, cheesy Dr. Paradise style goa-collages, porn/war/violence video footage. YE S: Well, it’s hard to describe, the good stuff can take on many forms. If y ou can’t afford/be bothered to spend a lot of effort on lighting, make it m inimal – dark dancefloor, low-lit communal areas / chillout room. If your parties become known for DudeVibe, it can be very hard to break the cycle. Take the above things into consideration, but consider changing the name of your team, switching things around can always make a difference. This is just a primer, there are many other things that can be done. However, havin g met you, I think you’re aware of many of these things already. The scene you’re involved in, however, doesn’t seem very open to innovation. When peo ple are too uptight to get down on the dancefloor at an outdoor day party, things are pretty bad. david (L.A.) TripOut meets Deeper in Zen by Mach inelf (Most questions by Ari D.) Where are you right now and what s going on around you? Living just north of San Francicso in Tiburon by t he bay. How was the transition from New York to San Francisco? Well it was interesting in the respect to the trance community and having to make friends with a whole new group of people. I think we kinda took for grant ed the connections we had with the trance community in New York. All of th e sudden we are standing in a party in and we dont know anybody. But it has been good overall. Met a lot of great people an d there are plenty of trance producers out here as well to collaborate wit h. How do you see the past/future development of the trance scene in this country from your point of view? Like most people, I dream of trance beco ming a more predominant force in America, but I cant say I would hold my breath for it. I am still blown away that it is not a larger comm unity here in the States. Places like Mexico, where people have a much lo wer standard of living on average, will have 2000 to 4000 people show up f or an outdoor party. Here, we are overjoyed if 600 to 700 show up at an outdoor. Are we apathetic? Too mesmerized by MTV and their latest E280 9CtrendE2809D. I am not sure. Maybe there are too many E2809Ccowb oysE2809D in America, and as any good cowboys says, E2809Cthat real men dont danceE2809D. Or maybe the typical attitude of Amer icans is that, E2809Cif it ain’t from around here, it ain’t no goodE2 809D. But the promising sign is that are more and more people in the U.S . making trance music, so maybe that will help to boost the scene. People invite their friends to come hear them play, etc. But a lingering thoug ht is still in my mind, if there are scores of E2809ChippiesE2809D t hat follow bands like Phish, String Cheese Theory etc. that are on that E2809CpsychedelicE2809D vibe, why dont they more interest i n electronic dance music? How was Japan? Japan was amazing, I was rea lly surprised at how westernized it has become. Maybe in my mind I had pi ctured it with more traditional architecture, but that is only in places l ike Kyoto. The party was up in the mountains about 3 hours from Tokyo. I t was half way up on the side of this mountain next to a river. Really be autiful spot. The Japanese love trance and went at it hardcore, they neve r stopped dancing or smiling. To those who havent heard your mus ic yet, how do you describe your sound? I would have to say it is very FUL bit towards the dark feel. It is funny I don’t think i intentionally make it dark, but sometimes it is perc eived that way. Since the majority of the samples in the tracks are prett y positive and are about expanding consciousness/awareness I guess it is t hat yin/yang thing. Although I love to dance to be happy, at times I also like to confront the intensity and fear that resides in us all that we so metimes suppress. Or if and when we do let it out, it often comes out in n egative and destructive ways. So finding a constructive and positive outl et for this powerful source of energy that resides in us all, is what I try to do in creating music. Although I have written some more E2809Cmorn ing tranceE2809D lately since I seemed to get frequently scheduled to p lay just as the sun comes at outdoor parties. About the music you produce how would you describe your creative process in writing the tracks? I t ake in the largest lungful of d smoke I can handleE280A6E280A6. wai t 7 minutes and then let Elves start working through me. Just kidding. A ctually now, I am mostly nspired by other psytrance tracks that I hear. Ill hear a bass line that catches my ear in one track, percussio n in another, leads from another and that will get the creative juices flo wing. Then with that in mind I sit down and go at it. I usually like lon g stretches so I generally will go at it about 8 to 10 hours at a time. I t is to hard for me to come in to work on music for just an hour or two an d really get into the flow. How has your second album, E2809CInsightE2 809D been received world-wide? INSIGHT has been doing well, I had a frie nd who just went to a party in GOA on the beach just two weeks ago and hea rd it played. So that is pretty inspiring. Imagine your ultimate dr eam performanceA6 where and what kind of party would it be? Oh, a dre amE280A6E280A6E280A6E280A6 Hmmm, probably someplace exotic, lik e a small tropical Island, with waterfalls to play in when it gets hot, be aches with white sand to dance in, smiling faces, a great sound system and magical food of the gods for all! Whats the must hear track/a lbum of the moment for you right now? I have been digging on Vibra lately, and then other various Full On tracks catch my attention here and there. I havent really listened to much psy-tech or progressive lately, but listen to a lot of chillout and downtempo at home. Finally, anything to say to the heads youre about to rock in NYC?

Where are you right now and whats going on around you? Living just north of San Francicso in Tiburon by the bay. Well it was interesting in the respect to the trance c ommunity and having to make friends with a whole new group of people. I think we kinda took for granted the connections we had with the trance c ommunity in New York. All of the sudden we are standing in a party in and we dont know anybody. But it has been goo d overall. Met a lot of great people and there are plenty of trance p roducers out here as well to collaborate with. How do you see the past/future development of the trance scene in this country from your point of view? Like most peo ple, I dream of trance becoming a more predominant force in America, but I cant say I would hold my breath for it. I am still blown awa y that it is not a larger community here in the States. Places like M exico, where people have a much lower standard of living on average, will h ave 2000 to 4000 people show up for an outdoor party. Here, we are overjoyed if 600 to 700 show up at an outdoor. Are we apathetic? Too mesmerized by MTV and their latest E2809CtrendE2809D. I am not sure. Maybe there are too many E2809CcowboysE2809D in America, and as any good cowboys says, E2809Cthat real men don t danceE2809D. Or maybe the typical attitude of Americ ans is that, E2809Cif it ain’t from around here, it ain’t no goodE280 9D. But the promising sign is that are more and more people in the U .S. making trance music, so maybe that will help to boost the scene. People invite their friends to come hear them play, etc. But a lingering thought is still in my mind, if there are scores of E2809Chipp iesE2809D that follow bands like Phish, String Cheese Theory etc. that a re on that E2809CpsychedelicE2809D vibe, why dont they more interest in electronic dance music? How was Japan? Japan was amazing, I was really surprised at how westernized it has become. Maybe in my mind I had pictured it with more traditional architecture, bu t that is only in places like Kyoto. The party was up in the mountain s about 3 hours from Tokyo. It was half way up on the side of this mo untain next to a river. Really beautiful spot. The Japanese lov e trance and went at it hardcore, they never stopped dancing or smili ng. To those who havent hear d your music yet, how do you describe your sound? ith a maybe bit towards the dark feel. It is funny I don’t think i intentio nally make it dark, but sometimes it is perceived that way. Since the majority of the samples in the tracks are pretty positive and are about ex panding consciousness/awareness I guess it is that yin/yang thing. Al though I love to dance to be happy, at times I also like to confront the in tensity and fear that resides in us all that we sometimes suppress. Or if a nd when we do let it out, it often comes out in negative and destructive wa ys. So finding a constructive and positive outlet for this powerful s ource of energy that resides in us all, is what I try to do in creating mus ic. Although I have written some more E2809Cmorning tranceE280 9D lately since I seemed to get frequently scheduled to play just as the s un comes at outdoor parties. About the music you pr oduce, how would you describe your creative process in writing the trac ks? I take in the largest lungful of D MT smoke I can handleE280A6E280A6. wait 7 minutes and then let Elves start working through me. Just kidding. Actually now, I a m mostly nspired by other psytrance tracks that I hear. IE280 99ll hear a bass line that catches my ear in one track, percussion in anot her, leads from another and that will get the creative juices flowing. Then with that in mind I sit down and go at it. I usually like long stretches so I generally will go at it about 8 to 10 hours at a time. It is to hard for me to come in to work on music for just an hour or two and really get into the flow. How has your second a lbum, E2809CInsightE2809D been received world-wide? INSIGHT has been doing well, I had a friend who just we nt to a party in GOA on the beach just two weeks ago and heard it played.&n bsSo that is pretty inspiring. &n bsImagine your ultimate dream performanceA6 where and what kind o f party would it be?

Twisting minds and vibrating bodies of trancers looking for a real dose of full on madness. Deeper in Zen started in New York in 2000 and although he has relocated to the west coast of late, there is still an unmistakeable edge grinded from years of nurturing in the New York Trance scene. Alpha Channel/Indigom Live (pc) (Soular Records, CT)- J has been producing trance since 2000 as D-Space, working closely with Steve F. (Equisol). In 2003 as J began producing solo material under the project name Alpha Channel. Both D-Space and Alpha Channel have played out live at various gatherings on the East Coast, performing live with Atmos in January and at Omnifestival in June. With the new year, J has focused on his deepest minimal morning trance grooves yet as Indigom. Come hear J play LIVE in the morning his newly crafted minimal progressive opus! Onnomon Live (pc) (Soular Records, Philadelphia) – Slated for his first full length CD to be released in late April on Soular Records, Onnomon has been writing trance for over 3 years. After playing numerous outdoor festivals last summer on the east coast and New Years in the UK, Onnomon is quickly gaining international recognition. His unique blend of hypnotic psychedelic groove and sublime sound design will make you search high and low for the nearest Pez dispenser.

To call him a quack for trying to be the obstetrician for the trance baby’s birth would be misguided. His preferred style is Parasense type full-on and mushroomy Paps-style morning shamanics; tonight he’s dropping the soundtracks for flights into hyperspace with a soular d edge. wrought with sexual appeal, tapestries that ooze spirituality and dark stand alone string art are all gateways into this artist’s soul. Joann is a guiding light in the Philadelphia psychedelic art world. As Equus she has been involved in planning and decorating full-on parties in the Philadelphia area. New to the New York scene, but totally entranced, Equus will morph a lovely art loft into a fantasy world of psychedelic adornments.

Their first compilation was subtitled “Hard Trance / Psychedelic Techno” as the words “Goa” and “Psy” didn’t exist back then. Since then they have released countless CDs on both Phantasm and Psychic Deli (a sub-label). John regularly travels the globe to play – from America to Japan, Mexico to Taiwan and back again. His sets are hard, danceable and above all fun! Mindfield, John Phantasm’s live outfit, is one of the longest running trance acts of the UK. New on Phantasm Records is the debut album by John’s son Eskimo. Eskimo is DJ Junya, which is the son of John Phantasm (also a member of Mindfield)!!

Even though some of the examples given for the various genres don’t fit exactly into the given time line, its a good overview. And besides that, the text information by Ishkur is hilarious! And, I found proof that I’m not alone with my opinion that 95% of the music that is sold as “psytrance” is big piles of shit. Ishkur calls it “PsyTekk”. I tend to disagree – after all, the “psy” stands for psychedelic. And where is that psychedelic pinch modern music that is labelled “psytrance”? Its not there, aye! technotic album, and it was adopted by the goa scene (which is not a bad thing, I’d say goatrancers are amongst the most open-minded music freaks in ! the world). That had happened before, remember Kopfuss Resonator for example). Yet with A lot of “new goa” artists joined the movement, producing sound very similar existing goa artists that delivered brilliant, psychedelic stuff in the past jumped on that train, too! Take Etnica – their “Equator” album was one big movement, their “Chrome” album is one big (stupid) stompment. Post-2000 Psytrance has a depressing tendency to make depressive. Its monotonous, unenlighted, stomping, and samey. Now, people are saying “but its good if a genre evolves!”. Problem is – its history repeating. Listen to 1993/1994 Harthouse & EyeQ stuff. Its no comparison (because its not so fucking dark and depressing as todays “PsyTekk”), but its hard electronic music (which lacks psychedelic components, I want to add). People, I tell you somthing – this stinks! Stop labelling this music as Psytrance! I love Psytrance, and this modern stuff is definitely NOT Psytrance.

I tend to disagree – after all, the “psy” stands for psychedelic. And where is that psychedelic pinch modern music that is labelled “psytrance”? Its no edelic, but rather technotic album, and it was adopted by the goa scene (wh ich is not a bad thing, I’d say goatrancers are amongst the most open-minde d music freaks in ! the world). That had happened before, remember Kopfuss A lot of “new goa” artists joined the movement, producing sound very s en worse, existing goa artists that delivered brilliant, psychedelic stuff in the past jumped on that train, too! Take Etnica – their “Equator” album was one big movement, their “Chrome” album is one big (stupid) stompment. P ost-2000 Psytrance has a depressing tendency to make depressive. Its monoto nous, unenlighted, stomping, and samey. Now, people are saying “but its good if a genre evolves!”. Problem is – its history repeating. Listen t o 1993/1994 Harthouse & EyeQ stuff. Its no comparison (because its not so fucking dark and depressing as todays “PsyTekk”), but its hard electroni c music (which lacks psychedelic components, I want to add). People, I tell you somthing – this stinks! BR!Stop labelling this music as Psytranc e! I love Psytrance, and this modern stuff is definitely NOT Psytrance.&nbs

#3326 Fri, 19 Mar 2004 17:40:17 Fri, 19 Mar 2004 17:40:17 EXTRA Club Arc is officially closing Thought I’d pass the info on. Closing of 6 Hubert Street It is with great sadness that we announce that 6 Hubert Street, the address which houses Arc will cease to be a dance club on the last weekend in April, 2004. The building has been sold, and to our knowledge, will become luxury condominiums. As many of you know this building has housed some of the best and most innovative NYC clubs in the last 25 years. For the next two months we will continue to honor the space, and its history in clubbing and the dance music culture, by bringing back some of its legendary parties. Watch this space for updates to these special events, and for details on our closing weekend. We extend our thanks to all of our club-goers that have graced our Friday Be Yourself parties and our Made Saturdays. Arc has always been about two things equally; the music and the people. And our driving force has been to keep the integrity of underground clubbing alive in New York City. Rest assured that we will keep the parties coming. . . we, in fact, are very excited about the opportunity that this change has brought about, as we are currently working on the next incarnation of Arc that will take undergound clubbing to the next level! Stay tuned for updates. ACKGRO Thought I’d pass the info on.

I’m ecstatic that one of the goa heavyw eights FreeAtmah is here from Goa, India – on the same ticket as Shai; en ding with a truly not-just-pc live morning progressive set with guitars, with artists from all over the country. So much work has been put into thi s production – the communal space is amazing. A lot of you have been the re before the renovation as “Studio 55.” Come support this official rechr istening, this new covenant, this new direction… your patronage will go towards further renovation and artistry and benefit all of the New York trance family. This special night is a moment for celebration as this is th e long awaited maiden voyage of the d Sound System, 4000 watts of self amplified Mackie power (2 big subs and 4 loudspeaker towers) That’s thre e times as much sound as we had in 1999-2001 under the bridge. Suggested Donation: $20, $15 for d members (you can also join the d on the spot for $25), $10 for out of towners (3 hour drive) Half of all proceeds go towards S.E.T.T.ING, a center for cooperative living and art inspired by psychedelic trance music. It’s also upstairs from a Hasidic cookie fact ory, so the whole place smells like.. you guessed it… cookies! Guests are requested to remove their shoes. BYOB – but also bring respectfulness an d responsibility. We are providing our own security – and a strict door p olicy is in effect – no assholes allowed! FreeAtmaah, (Foot Stompin Recor ds, Bombay, India) E28093 Back from India after his smash New York de but with DJ Karan at The Source last year, Assad is back to deliver us to sonic NirvanaE280A6 DJ Freeaatmah set up, co-owned and managed Paradis o Records from 1991- 2003. He has now moved on to start his own new label. Has been on the scene since 1991 organising, promoting and djing. Here to promote his new compilation which will be ready for release in july 2004 . Assad spins a very dark, twisted psychedelic set … a journey from ni ght into twilight… a set of mostly unreleased night tunez moving towards a twilight release. The night tunes make each one of us reach within and explore our deepest darkest side. 1am. DJ Droozi (Bombay/New York) E2 8093 Fresh off an amazing two week engagement with his brother Zeebabla at Thiassos, Samsher Sachdeva spins a set of full on psy trance – concen trating on journey through track selection. Tweakage factor is usually hig h and winding down sounds are common place in his set. Hailing from Bombay India – he got into the trance scene in 1995 and since then has not look ed back. 11pm. Shaikid (Israel/Russia, Omnitribe) is generally acknowledge d as New York’s top DJ. Shai combines many flavors of trance into one po tent brew. Come hear him jam on a truly amazing sound system – the best o n the best! I’ve been anxiously awaiting this one, it’s a “don’t miss” 3 :30am Alpha Channel/M-field 100% LIVE (the whole thing!) (Soular Records, CT) Fresh from a widely lauded performance at the Heaven & Earth Center last month, J is teaming with Rob-ot from and will perform “Dream Chamber” consisting of up tempo trance from “Alpha Channel” (J’s s olo project-2003) and the newly formed “M-field” project (J and Rob’s col laboration material-2004) followed by an hour of down-tempo chillout musi c accompanied by live acoustic and electronic instruments. So unhinge you r mind and body to two hours of a trance journey that takes you from the metamagic of up-tempo night music which will meld semi-transparently into progressive-styled morning trance as the sun rises to finally leave you fl oating freely upon the waves of a premier chillout performance. 6am Rob- ot (Phoenix Family, San Francisco) Rob Watson aka Rob-ot is a native of th e Bay Area. He’s been Djing since early 2000 and has played at numerous underground psy-events in the Bay Area as part of the Phoenix Family crew. He has co-produced many full-on tracks with Dj Random under the name Random Robot, and a few tracks on his own in a more progressive and contemplative style. In 2002 Rob moved to Connecticut for grad school in music and concentrated on that aspect of his life until he met J at a party in Boston, and is now psyched to get back into spinning and produci ng. Rob is a classically trained guitarist and brings a very well develope d ear and sense of balance and musicality to his trance explorations. 5am dj set, 7am live guitar with Alpha Channel (see above) Machinelf (Brai nmachines, Devotional Ministry of Trance, New York/Texas) Machinelf plays a wide range of styles, tonight he is interpreting eastern mysticism throu gh a Western lens.

Guille ame Clave called him one of the best he’s ever seen. Equus (Philadelphia) with sexual appeal, tapestries that ooze spirituality & dark stand alone string art are all g ateways into this artist’s soul. Joanne is a guiding light in the Philadel phia psychedelic art world. As Equus she has been involved in planning & decorating full-on parties in the Philadelphia area. New to the New York scene, but totally entranced, Equus will morph a lovely art loft into a fantasy world of psychedelic adornments.

DINO (Changmian) Boston Perha ps the most experienced and influential member of the Boston psy-trance co mmunity, Dean began holding successful weeklies and all night beach gather ings as early as 1998. It was that year when he and long time friend Dave W est founded Changmian Productions; thus putting Boston on the national “t rance-map”. After three years of successful trance weeklies, Changmian dec ided to shift gears in the fall of 2000 and dedicate itself to propagating only the psychedelic sound. A few months later, “Samsara,”Boston’s first ever all psy-trance weekly, was started at a local bar in Cambridge. After Samsara ended, Dino joined forces with Dave Henshaw and Mathwin to launch Boston’s second all psy-trance weekly, “Anitya”. The storied two year hi story of this event made Boston synonymous with psy-trance. Over the years Dino has become known for his melodic and groovy full-on psy-trance sound . His sets usually don’t exceed 136 BPM, giving the music space to breathe while allowing the listener to hear and feel every nuance. Dino’s divers ity has become one of his finest attributes as a DJ. Whether it be full-on progressive, chill out, or atmospheric drum & bass; Dean’s passion for m usic knows no limits… dave henshaw (changmian) Boston A progressive and hard-trance DJ in his earlier years, Dave wasn’t introduced to the psyched elic sound until he spent 1998 living in Cape Town, South Africa. His firs t interactions with the sound were relatively indifferent and it wasn’t un til his introduction to Dino in the fall fo 2000 that he was able to appre ciate how beautiful, malleable, and adaptive the psychedelic sound could b e. It was albums like Atmos’s “Headcleaner,” Vibrasphere’s “Echo,” and XV Kilist’s self-titled full-length that enamored Dave to no end. He immediate ly joined Changmian Productions and began working at “Samsara.” After that weekly ended, he teamed up with Dino and Mathwin to start “Anitya” – Bost on’s storied two-year all-psy-trance weekly. To this day, (aside from writ ing long winded party reviews and babbling on the lists all the time) Dave continues to refine his musical tastes and DJ skills in order to show how “progressive” and “psychedelic” music can unify, harmonize, and elevate p arties to new heights. Primarily into the “Scandinavian sound” from labels like Iboga, Digital Structures, and Interzone; Dave has been lucky enough to share the stage with many of the DJ’s and artists he respects the most . Expect a very groovy, very danceable, and very ear-friendly set from Bos ton’s propagator of the progressive psychedelic sound. Lauryn Lauryn’s h umble beginnings date back to 1998 when she was single-handedly throwing p arties and producing her own all-trance radio show while a student at Hami lton College in upstate New York. A chance encounter with Ammon EP at Sate llite Records opened her door into the psychedelic world and Lauryn has sin ce, never looked back. Starting in the winter of 2002, Lauryn has played a mazing sets at Boston’s prestiguious psy-weekly, “Anitya”, has served (and continues to serve) as a resident of Sonic Beating’s monthly “Psyforia”, and has played multiple one-offs from Maine to Providence to New York and New Jersey. Still involved in a weekly radio show out of Tufts University, Lauryn is consistently honing and fine-tuning the already impeccable DJ s kills that have made her a Boston crowd-pleaser. Though best known for blow ing up dancefloors with her South African influenced dark funky full on so unds from the likes of Wizzy Noise, Altom, Rinkadink, and Damage, Lauryn h as also been exploring the gentler side of the psychedelic sound. Her lat est mix-CD, “Sub-Liminal” shows this, featuring tracks by Antix, Frogacult Bitmonx and others. BINARY (Sonic Beating/Changmian) Boston, MA Before a nyone even heard the name “Binary” in Boston, the man behind that name was busy producing “Free Update,” an all-psy-trance radio program on a local college station. After honing his skills in the isolated studio, Binary bro ke into the public eye with two ear-popping sets at Boston’s long-standing psy-weekly, “Anitya.” From there, he never looked back. Though “Free Upda te” remains a fixture in Boston radio, Binary has branched out into a high ly skilled and versatile DJ (joined Anitya’s residency in September 2003,) a crafty and intelligent sound engineer, and the founder of his own produ ction company – “Sonic Beating Productions.” Currently serving as the resi dent of his monthly brainchild, “Psyforia;” Binary has played to packed da ncefloors all over the Eastern United States – most notably at last year’s Omni-Dance, where he delivered a full-on set that tossed and crushed the outdoor audience. Though his versatility and musical library have grown e xponentially over the course of the last few years, Binary is most known f or his powerful, intense, and at times overwhelming full-on trance. When B inary gets behind the system, you know you’re in for a good set.

July 2nd at Club Exit Brookyln. MSunday July 4th – American Independence Day -July 9th – DM T Open Air with Kri and Blue Spectral Monkey (Touch Samadhi, North Carolin a) Kri is the dj who never ceases to amaze with his ability to tap into th e moment and play exactly what is fuckin right. Right, that is, if you lik e your Trance tracks like a tidal wave, like a werewolfs howl, like a sand blaster busting open your third eye. As he comes across quiet and somewhat reserved in person, one would not, at first, realize that Kri is on a miss ion, a serious quest to bring Psychedelic Trance music to the people, and to bring the people to a state of enlightenment in the process. Caught up in the party scene of the 90s and gaining a reputation for his skills in m ixing breakbeat and scratching, Kri left it all behind to pursue full-time the haunting promise Goa trance laid out for him. Now, he has single hand edly created a devout Trance family in a tiny, southern town that had pre viously never heard of any such thing, orchestrating parties and gathering s whose emphasis is holistic, about the music and the magic, never getting lost in the hype or the egocentrism of the business. Starting to build a b ody of his own compositions, edgy pieces demanding the listener to recogni ze Trances primal roots, Kri is showing himself as an incredibly dedicate d Goa Trance musician and dj. More and more, his skills are being sought a fter in places all over the country, and I will venture a reason why. To l isten to Kri play is to remember our legacy as spiritual beings with tumul tuous desires, with an innate need to pound our feet into the Earth to rais e our prayers to the heavens…on the dance floor that translates to his creating all-consuming, orgiastic rituals of dance where he pushes you pas t your limits to a place beyond a good party or a great time, but to a plawhere you can capture a glimpse of a future in which the primal and the technological fuse to bring us a passionate and fulfilling existence on a planet that survives. Heavy? Yeah, but so is the Psychedelic Goa Trance ex perience, and heavier still is a night filled with Kris dark, driving trac ks, his momentum slowly building like a panthers body tensing each muscle till its time to strike its prey, and then, youre a goner. -July 17th – E l Nadiv MJuly 26th – Monday – Aldous Huxley’s Birthday -Aug 13th, 2004 Ecli ptic-Trance confirmed at Club Exit Brooklyn ZSunday morning August 29th 9:2 3 am Full Moon MThursday September 16th – Rosh Hashanah -Sept 17th, 2004 Ec liptic-Trance confirmed at club Exit Brooklyn.

While at the University of Texas in the late 80s he took acid for the first time joined the acid house movement, started the Young Anarchist Front, lived in a clothing optional cooperative housing and threw psychedelic music fe stivals on the campus. After several scrapes with the law he graduated an d moved to New York to work in advertising in 1991, where he attended his first raves. In 1995 while rising the corporate ladder selling advertis ing he became disenchanted with yuppiedom so he began to wear weird clothe s and go to clubs and hang out with club kids. He went to i n 1996 and first encountered brain machines and brought 20 glasses back fo r the first commercial psy-trance event in North America, Return to the So urce at Liberty Science Center. Jeff became obsessed with smart ds, al ternative therapies, psychedelics, and neuroscience. He launched brainmac hines in ’97, set up brainmachine installations anywhere someone may b e tripping in New York – and, for a weekend, London. He attended Burning Manin ’98, which shattered his world. In his rapid acquisition of party g ear he threw the seminal Neurotrancemitter and Serotonin Selector parties in ’99. Serotonin Selector landed him in hot water with Sasha & Digwee d, whose main UK manager was angry that S&D’s NY manager was billed as a D J, so the brainmachines were effectively shut out of Twilo. So whereas be fore Jeff saw the psytrancers as somewhat inbred, stale,and unshowered – a sometimes alternative to the monging masses at Twilo – now they seemed t he logical family for him. So he began a long period of proselytization in favor of psy-trance and l and against progressive trance and E. H e also began to dabble in K, which he began to inject intramuscular ly in 1999. He began to don bizarre outfits built on intricate themes. H e appeared on Amercan Journal, MTV, Dutch public TV, BBC, and the Discover y Channel, always as an anonymous talking head discussing psychedelics. A 48 Hours episode was filmed in his apartment. In 1999 he first smoked D MT, which changed his life, affirming his decision to spend his life sprea ding the psychedelic virus throughout the U.S. He renamed himself Machinel f, after the hyperdimensional self transforming machine elves descibed by Terence McKenna regarding his visions while smoking d. In 2000 Machinel f co-founded the Devotional Minsitry of Trance, a religion devoted to the core belief that spiritual enlightenment can come from dancing to trance m usic. With the new alchemy of cutting edge sound technology and ultrapote nt psychedelics, Machinelf and the d organized about 20 outdoor events o ver the next two years. He also did many events in and around strange plac es in New York; for example, he threw the last party at the legendary Psy chedelic Circus in the east village, right before it was to be turned into condos. In 2001 fresh from being laid off at the Economist newspaper an d living with Deeper in Zen, Machinelf continued his experiement in Fight Club style living (before the movie came out) squatted in Tribeca and thre w a lot of parties, but the police raided on June 13 and confiscated $15,0 00 in electronics, nootropics, and lots more. The d sound system was al so confiscated. Machinelf evaded conviction because all the evidence was in his Spacetribe wallet, which also had $1500 and was swiped by one of th e cops. The judge, when determing bail, called the DA a “butthead” and re leased Machinelf on his own recognizance. This coupled with the fact that nothing seized was tested to be illegal, set the stage for Machinelf stay ing out of jail. Plus he and his friend Wylie re-invaded the squat buildi ng and had several in the abandoned top floor penthouse. Although out o f jail, Machinelf was also penniless, 401K’d out, and living in a depresse d jobless dotcom economy. He poured himself into keeping the trance cultu re together, kept doing events, and refined his music. His largest email d iscussion group grew to over 1300 New York trance heads. He began conduct ing workshops and retreats on sacred South American plants and ceremonies, for which he sought a spiritual cure for his d prediliction. His no co st appraoch to events forced him to collaborate; he was the only organizer in New York who did not lose money on a consistent basis; he excelled in aligning causes with artists willing to work for free. Machinelf continue d to sporadically inject K until late 2002; in early 2003 he had a relapse and was found yelling “I am the Machine” on the subway tracks. On certain fronts, Jeff W. completely lost everything to ds and a cultu re built around them. On other fronts, his experiences were priceless. In his wake is a community that has evolved and mutated beyond his wildest d reams – and proved, probably due to the Internet, remarkably resilient. H is recovery was near complete, he got a job, adapted to a harsh economic c limate by cutting costs, moving to Brooklyn, re-entering publishing, start ed to make music, and coordinated the acquisition and rental of the new DM T Sound System. 2004 has proven to be the dawn of a new Golden Age – smar ter, faster, and wiser. His ultimate dream is for an American psy-trance community so developed that psychedelics are unnecessary for one’s mind to be blown. As an organizer, traveller, and DJ, Machinelf’s track selectio n ranges from samples and remixes of Everything Else Besides Trance to unp ublished tracks. His priorities are track selection, mixing and sampling. He approaches DJing as a total experience which includes outlandish outf it(s), live drumming, and, in the old days, what you were taking. His new track which encapsulates a remix of Parasense and Double Doper is called “Orc Messiah” and be vailable free from him after his performance, email m achinelf at brainmachines with your name to reserve a copy.

For a fortnight in New York he’ll be throwing down some dancy psychedelic video for your aural pleasures. He’s been VJing in NYC, Denver, Boulder, Cali, with crews, bands and DJ’s: Harmonic Motion, Metameme, Parliament, Blackalicious, Amon Tobin, DJ3, DJ Green, DJ Dmitry (Colorado), Erotica Exotica, and wherever the party’s hot. Boris produces his own animations and remixes through the evening to the music. Where are you from? Where are you right now? What’s up lately? At the moment I’m transitioning from a nice cozy house in Denver, surrounded by artists studios and warehouses, into a veggie oil powered school bus. I plan on touring this summer and don’t wanna be slowed down by rent and bills. Land pirates and festivals are on the horizon. I was originally born in Leningrad, lived in Italy and Austria for a minute, then arrived in Queens when I was 3. Grew up in Queens, moved to Joisey at about 13, and escaped the rat race at 18 to become a rock climbing/snowboarding bum in Colorado. Lately I haven’t seen the mountains as I used to but its nice to connect with nature every couple of weeks. How are the parties in Colorado? What kind of crazy shit goes on down there? We do everything from break-ins (which has been a bit out of season the last couple of years), to underground parties in wharehouses, to legit venues all over Denver and Boulder, to mountain parties all summer long. Lately I’ve been running with a burning man centric crew, and our next big thing is Apogaea in Dreamtime (pun on our altitude and headspace web apogaea ) which is our regional burn happening July 16-19. Last year our local burn was split between two other huge parties, and it was till great. This year we are combining all three. Last year we had a floating geodesic dome, and a huge tower with a DJ Booth 45 feet up, and this burlesque stage/western camp!! People were going insane! This year promises to be much bigger and have more theme camps. They say that behind California, Colorado is the second most represented state at Burning Man… soo we’ll se what happens. We are a happy, fun community, and enforce a NO BULLSHIT vibe. We don’t tolerate assholes, and they generally don’t even think of showing up to our parties. We put an “out there” vibe out and they just don’t hang with that. We have also had a nice multi-year run of the Art Bus. Every First Friday Denver’s art galleries open their doors till 10ish, and serve free wine and food. We dress up as freakish as the theme that night and pile into a huge school bus to create mayhem at the galleries we choose to raid. Has New York changed since you’ve been back? NY always changes, and that’s how it stays the same. I’d say its a bit cleaner, safer, and mellower. What kind of equipment do you use? Where do you get your source material? LCD Projector, PC Laptop, VJ Mixer (with beat matching controls), DVD/Hard Drive Recorder, MIDI Controller Keyboard, Couple of Camera’s, and my new top secret device a couple of Engineering friends are developing in Colorado: a Video Sequencer. All my harware/software is MIDI controlled. Soon I will have a portable MAC and my rig will be complete. I try to keep it compact so I can take the delicate stuff as carry on and check the tuff gear in when I fly. I’ve been making video’s for a about 6 years, so I have a bunch of source material there, and some of my friends are animators, they give me clips and love it when I rock their shit. Sometimes I’m asked to do a custom show, so I pre-produce whatever they need. I prefer dancy, psychedelic stuff, but I play whatever it takes. Ohhh, I also steal like a mofo if its footage I could never hope to shoot (Ever seen a VJ rent a helicoptor, or grow a plant and point an IMAX camera at it for a month?) VJ Videolicious was all over the place last weekend, will play at Set and Setting tomorrow, the Frying Pan friday, maybe Thiassos, and finally at the Freak Patrol party in the jersey city art lofts.

Teaser flyer h web tranceam.org/goabostonpartyflyer.gif Dino (Changmian) Perhap s the most experienced and influential member of the Boston psy-trance com munity, Dean began holding successful weeklies and all night beach gatheri ngs as early as 1998. It was that year when he and long time friend Dave We st founded Changmian Productions; thus putting Boston on the national “tr ance-map”. After three years of successful trance weeklies, Changmian deci ded to shift gears in the fall of 2000 and dedicate itself to propagating only the psychedelic sound. A few months later, “Samsara,”Boston’s first e ver all psy-trance weekly, was started at a local bar in Cambridge. After Samsara ended, Dino joined forces with Dave Henshaw and Mathwin to launch Boston’s second all psy-trance weekly, “Anitya”. The storied two year his tory of this event made Boston synonymous with psy-trance. Over the years Dino has become known for his melodic and groovy full-on psy-trance sound. His sets usually don’t exceed 136 BPM, giving the music space to breathe, while allowing the listener to hear and feel every nuance. Dino’s diversi ty has become one of his finest attributes as a DJ. Whether it be full-on, progressive, chill out, or atmospheric drum & bass; Dean’s passion for mu sic knows no limits… Dave Henshaw (Changmian) A progressive and hard-tra nce DJ in his earlier years, Dave wasn’t introduced to the psychedelic sou nd until he spent 1998 living in Cape Town, South Africa. His first intera ctions with the sound were relatively indifferent and it wasn’t until his introduction to Dino in the fall fo 2000 that he was able to appreciate ho w beautiful, malleable, and adaptive the psychedelic sound could be. It wa s albums like Atmos’s “Headcleaner,” Vibrasphere’s “Echo,” and XV Kilist’s self-titled full-length that enamored Dave to no end. He immediately join ed Changmian Productions and began working at “Samsara.” After that weekly ended, he teamed up with Dino and Mathwin to start “Anitya” – Boston’s sto ried two-year all-psy-trance weekly. To this day, (aside from writing long winded party reviews and babbling on the lists all the time) Dave continu es to refine his musical tastes and DJ skills in order to show how “progre ssive” and “psychedelic” music can unify, harmonize, and elevate parties t o new heights. Primarily into the “Scandinavian sound” from labels like Ib oga, Digital Structures, and Interzone; Dave has been lucky enough to shar e the stage with many of the DJ’s and artists he respects the most. Expect a very groovy, very danceable, and very ear-friendly set from Boston’s pr opagator of the progressive psychedelic sound. Lauryn (Sonic Beating) La uryn’s humble beginnings date back to 1998 when she was single-handedly th rowing parties and producing her own all-trance radio show while a student at Hamilton College in upstate New York. A chance encounter with Ammon EP at Satellite Records opened her door into the psychedelic world and Lauryn has since, never looked back. Starting in the winter of 2002, Lauryn has played amazing sets at Boston’s prestiguious psy-weekly, “Anitya”, has ser ved (and continues to serve) as a resident of Sonic Beating’s monthly “Psy foria”, and has played multiple one-offs from Maine to Providence to New Y ork and New Jersey. Still involved in a weekly radio show out of Tufts Uni versity, Lauryn is consistently honing and fine-tuning the already impecca ble DJ skills that have made her a Boston crowd-pleaser. Though best known for blowing up dancefloors with her South African influenced dark funky f ull on sounds from the likes of Wizzy Noise, Altom, Rinkadink, and Damage, Lauryn has also been exploring the gentler side of the psychedelic sound. Her latest mix-CD, “Sub-Liminal” shows this, featuring tracks by Antix, Frogacult, Bitmonx and others. Binary (Sonic Beating) Before anyone even h eard the name “Binary” in Boston, the man behind that name was busy produc ing “Free Update,” an all-psy-trance radio program on a local college stat ion. After honing his skills in the isolated studio, Binary broke into the public eye with two ear-popping sets at Boston’s long-standing psy-weekly “Anitya.” From there, he never looked back. Though “Free Update” remains a fixture in Boston radio, Binary has branched out into a highly skilled a nd versatile DJ (joined Anitya’s residency in September 2003,) a crafty an d intelligent sound engineer, and the founder of his own production compan y – “Sonic Beating Productions.” Currently serving as the resident of his monthly brainchild, “Psyforia;” Binary has played to packed dancefloors al l over the Eastern United States – most notably at last year’s Omni-Dance, where he delivered a full-on set that tossed and crushed the outdoor audi ence. Though his versatility and musical library have grown exponentially over the course of the last few years, Binary is most known for his power ful, intense, and at times overwhelming full-on trance. When Binary gets b ehind the system, you know you’re in for a good set.

July 2nd at Club Exit Brookyln. M Sunday July 4th – American Independence Day -JJuly 9th – d Open Air Revival with Kri an d Blue Spectral Monkey (Touch Samadhi, Ashville, North Carolina) Kri is t he dj who never ceases to amaze with his ability to tap into the moment an d play exactly what is fuckin right. Right, that is, if you like your Trantracks like a tidal wave, like a werewolfs howl, like a sandblaster bus ting open your third eye. As he comes across quiet and somewhat reserved in person, one would not, at first, realize that Kri is on a mission, a seri ous quest to bring Psychedelic Trance music to the people, and to bring th e people to a state of enlightenment in the process. Caught up in the part y scene of the 90s and gaining a reputation for his skills in mixing break beat and scratching, Kri left it all behind to pursue full-time the haunti ng promise Goa trance laid out for him. Now, he has single handedly create d a devout Trance family in a tiny, southern town that had previously neve r heard of any such thing, orchestrating parties and gatherings whose emph asis is holistic, about the music and the magic, never getting lost in the hype or the egocentrism of the business. Starting to build a body of his own compositions, edgy pieces demanding the listener to recognize Trances primal roots, Kri is showing himself as an incredibly dedicated Goa Trance musician and dj. More and more, his skills are being sought after in plac es all over the country, and I will venture a reason why. To listen to Kri play is to remember our legacy as spiritual beings with tumultuous desire s, with an innate need to pound our feet into the Earth to raise our praye rs to the heavens…on the dance floor that translates to his creating all -consuming, orgiastic rituals of dance where he pushes you past your limit s to a place beyond a good party or a great time, but to a place where you can capture a glimpse of a future in which the primal and the technologica l fuse to bring us a passionate and fulfilling existence on a planet that survives. Heavy? Yeah, but so is the Psychedelic Goa Trance experience, an d heavier still is a night filled with Kris dark, driving tracks, his mome ntum slowly building like a panthers body tensing each muscle till its tim e to strike its prey, and then, youre a goner. JKri first played in New Yo rk at an outdoor festival by the d and most recently in Jersey City for Omnitribe.

This year the Omnifestival is back with Wizzy Noise live, Mos Mittelstandskinder Ohne Strom live, and Phony Orphants live, plus an Emok dj set. Vitalik will be DJing at Thiassos on Thursday night Where are you from? still figuring that out, but was born on the island called Sahalin, Russia. What’s going on with you lately? learning basics; rediscovering my self through letting go of fears; the hardest part to accept myself as shi tty as I am. Does your name come from Vita, life? that is where I am comi ng from!!! One thing that keeps me going is the believe that there is a wa y to continue our journey into the world beyond what we know with our self ish minds. Trip is beyond psychedelic ds and beyond trance music. Psych edelics opened it up for me and now it’s all about life, experience and sh aring knowledge. When did you first hear trance music? it all started with E as my girlfriend at the time brought me to the S.U.N. Project party at Mars 2112. Where have you played as a DJ? DJing from the mind I’ve stary ted back in 2001 at the fresh open air paties here in Brooklyn. Slowly dis covering myself as a DJ and maybe only now coming to some understanding of this art. I played around, but for real when I was really playing with it only a few times: Neva bar, Roof in Williamsburg, club Mundo, Danny’s lo ft and a gig in Philadelphia for Gaian Mind monthly; Oh and of course my s tudio where I manage to let go quite often. Are you doing a compilation a nytime soon? don’t know much about the future. of course it’d be pleasure t o release somthing interesting and somthing I trully enjoy myself, so I’ m working towards it. From the past, the compilation that I was working on for Midijum Records was put on hold. It was an experimental idea of relea sing USA trance artists with some German acts, but America wasn’t ready fo r the quality that was demanded. Must say that PolarLight Rec., NYC picked up on that and will be releasing somthing fresh from the local artists q uite soon. My knowledge of Russian trance is limited to Parasense, Fungus Funk and Weird Walker. Is there a characteristic in the Russian character that has influenced their flavors of trance? It’s hard for me to talk abo ut it ’cause I found myself in trance here in the states and yet to have experience of the Russian trance scene. From my mind I can say that Russia n wilderness and freshness of the mind was always attracting attention of the world, so it shows in the music that comes from there. Some more proje cts of serious interst are Fuzzion, Neoris, Overlap, Neogen, PPS Project.. .I find a lof of Russian character in myself and maybe the unbreakable wil l is the one to notice. Who are your favorite artists/influences? [trance or not] People around me are of great influence, I learn from each and ever yone I am in contact with. It’s amazing how much we all have in common and how much we resonate. Talking about the trance scene of NYC, you Jeff is one of my heros btw :). From the trance world Pena (flow rec.), Noma (spir al trax), opened up vorite artists, oh too many to type. Labels that released their tunes are MPDQX Label group, Spiral Trax, Spirit Zone, Plusquam, Midijum, Iboga, Na no, Save to Disk, Free Form, What turned you on to psytekk/minimal/progressive sound? What are your thoughts on th is music? Dima turned me on ’cause he’d erase all the other stuff from his hard drive at the time I was starting up as a DJ. Then as I moved towards playing from the heart I found beauty in the progressive trance and a lot of melodies in the minimal what you call psytekk. There are so much going on in my head even if there are not that many crazy sounds flying around. 🙂 Now I’m also collecting some of the faster and fuller tracks for the op en air season. Playing outside is totally different experience and the spe ed limit sign is far below. What are your future plans for Omnitribe? oh w ith this group of people it is impossible to make plans. More like catchin g moment after the moment. Still interested in promoting trance music, so working with labels to bring some fresh releases to the states. Danila at e lekrolust is working with us on that idea, dedicating himself to the se lfless approach to this matter. SUMMER is on the way and for sure will be bringing free parties to NYC. Just today I was exploring new places, think ing of bring sound system right to the footsteps of the bay. waves, sand, isolation, salted breeze and the sound of psychedelia. Who would you most like to book that you haven’t? Oh about booking it is always sweet to drea m, but in reality I’m out of cash, so I’m dreaming of different things at this moment of my life 🙂 Is there anything else you’d like to tell us? A friend of my just came from Peru for a short stay. Very interesting and fr esh things are going on with him. Imagine a healing center on the last poin t of civilization in the rain forest of Iquitos (north of Peru). He has de voted his life on helping people to overcome sickness. He helped this woma n to get over the cancer of the ‘this long thing in human stomach that ref ines food’. IT’s amazing for me ’cause he’s just a guy like you and me with the same abilities and the same understanding of the world, maybe with th e difference that he has switched the focus from himself to the other side . oh might know him, it’s Roman H. at -Friday-Sunday, June 4-6 Echo Lake Af ton, NY omni dance festival 2004 confirmed acts include: wizzy noise live! mittelstandskinder ohne strom (mos) live! phony orphants live! emok dj set + other surprises in the works.

Teaser flyer /goabostonpartyflyer.gif Dino (Changmian) Perhaps the most experienced and influential member of the Boston psy-trance communit y, Dean began holding successful weeklies and all night beach gatherings a s early as 1998. It was that year when he and long time friend Dave West f ounded Changmian Productions; thus putting Boston on the national “trance- map”. After three years of successful trance weeklies, Changmian decided t o shift gears in the fall of 2000 and dedicate itself to propagating only the psychedelic sound. A few months later, “Samsara,”Boston’s first ever a ll psy-trance weekly, was started at a local bar in Cambridge. After Sams ara ended, Dino joined forces with Dave Henshaw and Mathwin to launch Bost on’s second all psy-trance weekly, “Anitya”. The storied two year history of this event made Boston synonymous with psy-trance. Over the years Dino has become known for his melodic and groovy full-on psy-trance sound. His sets usually don’t exceed 136 BPM, giving the music space to breathe, whil e allowing the listener to hear and feel every nuance. Dino’s diversity ha s become one of his finest attributes as a DJ. Whether it be full-on, prog ressive, chill out, or atmospheric drum & bass; Dean’s passion for music k nows no limits… Dave Henshaw (Changmian) A progressive and hard-trance D J in his earlier years, Dave wasn’t introduced to the psychedelic sound un til he spent 1998 living in Cape Town, South Africa. His first interaction s with the sound were relatively indifferent and it wasn’t until his intro duction to Dino in the fall fo 2000 that he was able to appreciate how bea utiful, malleable, and adaptive the psychedelic sound could be. It was alb ums like Atmos’s “Headcleaner,” Vibrasphere’s “Echo,” and XV Kilist’s self -titled full-length that enamored Dave to no end. He immediately joined Ch angmian Productions and began working at “Samsara.” After that weekly ende d, he teamed up with Dino and Mathwin to start “Anitya” – Boston’s storied two-year all-psy-trance weekly. To this day, (aside from writing long wind ed party reviews and babbling on the lists all the time) Dave continues to refine his musical tastes and DJ skills in order to show how “progressive ” and “psychedelic” music can unify, harmonize, and elevate parties to new heights. Primarily into the “Scandinavian sound” from labels like Iboga, Digital Structures, and Interzone; Dave has been lucky enough to share the stage with many of the DJ’s and artists he respects the most. Expect a ve ry groovy, very danceable, and very ear-friendly set from Boston’s propaga tor of the progressive psychedelic sound. Lauryn (Sonic Beating) Lauryn’ s humble beginnings date back to 1998 when she was single-handedly throwin g parties and producing her own all-trance radio show while a student at H amilton College in upstate New York. A chance encounter with Ammon EP at S atellite Records opened her door into the psychedelic world and Lauryn has since, never looked back. Starting in the winter of 2002, Lauryn has playe d amazing sets at Boston’s prestiguious psy-weekly, “Anitya”, has served ( and continues to serve) as a resident of Sonic Beating’s monthly “Psyforia “, and has played multiple one-offs from Maine to Providence to New York a nd New Jersey. Still involved in a weekly radio show out of Tufts Universi ty, Lauryn is consistently honing and fine-tuning the already impeccable D J skills that have made her a Boston crowd-pleaser. Though best known for blowing up dancefloors with her South African influenced dark funky full o n sounds from the likes of Wizzy Noise, Altom, Rinkadink, and Damage, Laur yn has also been exploring the gentler side of the psychedelic sound. Her latest mix-CD, “Sub-Liminal” shows this, featuring tracks by Antix, Froga cult, Bitmonx and others. Binary (Sonic Beating) Before anyone even heard the name “Binary” in Boston, the man behind that name was busy producing ” Free Update,” an all-psy-trance radio program on a local college station. After honing his skills in the isolated studio, Binary broke into the publ ic eye with two ear-popping sets at Boston’s long-standing psy-weekly, “An itya.” From there, he never looked back. Though “Free Update” remains a fi xture in Boston radio, Binary has branched out into a highly skilled and v ersatile DJ (joined Anitya’s residency in September 2003,) a crafty and in telligent sound engineer, and the founder of his own production company – ” Sonic Beating Productions.” Currently serving as the resident of his month ly brainchild, “Psyforia;” Binary has played to packed dancefloors all ove r the Eastern United States – most notably at last year’s Omni-Dance, wher e he delivered a full-on set that tossed and crushed the outdoor audience. Though his versatility and musical library have grown exponentially over the course of the last few years, Binary is most known for his powerful, intense, and at times overwhelming full-on trance. When Binary gets behind the system, you know you’re in for a good set.

July 2nd at Club Exit Brookyln. M Sunday July 4th – American Independence Day -JJuly 9th – d Open Air Revival with Kri and Blue Spectral Monkey (Touch Samadhi, Ashville, North Carolina) Kri is the dj who never ceases to amaze with his ability to tap into the moment and play exactly what is fuckin right. Rig ht, that is, if you like your Trance tracks like a tidal wave, like a were wolfs howl, like a sandblaster busting open your third eye. As he comes ac ross quiet and somewhat reserved in person, one would not, at first, reali ze that Kri is on a mission, a serious quest to bring Psychedelic Trance m usic to the people, and to bring the people to a state of enlightenment in the process. Caught up in the party scene of the 90s and gaining a reputa tion for his skills in mixing breakbeat and scratching, Kri left it all be hind to pursue full-time the haunting promise Goa trance laid out for him. Now, he has single handedly created a devout Trance family in a tiny, sou thern town that had previously never heard of any such thing, orchestratin g parties and gatherings whose emphasis is holistic, about the music and t he magic, never getting lost in the hype or the egocentrism of the business . Starting to build a body of his own compositions, edgy pieces demanding the listener to recognize Trances primal roots, Kri is showing himself as an incredibly dedicated Goa Trance musician and dj. More and more, his ski lls are being sought after in places all over the country, and I will vent ure a reason why. To listen to Kri play is to remember our legacy as spiri tual beings with tumultuous desires, with an innate need to pound our feet into the Earth to raise our prayers to the heavens…on the dance floor t hat translates to his creating all-consuming, orgiastic rituals of dance w here he pushes you past your limits to a place beyond a good party or a gr eat time, but to a place where you can capture a glimpse of a future in wh ich the primal and the technological fuse to bring us a passionate and ful filling existence on a planet that survives. Heavy? Yeah, but so is the Ps ychedelic Goa Trance experience, and heavier still is a night filled with Kris dark, driving tracks, his momentum slowly building like a panthers bo dy tensing each muscle till its time to strike its prey, and then, youre a goner. JKri first played in New York at an outdoor festival by the d and most recently in Jersey City for Omnitribe. Blue Spectral Monkey Touch Sa madhi /Asheville, NC bio: As a core member of the TOUCH Samadhi family i n Asheville, BSM has been quite busy in his mission to spread the sounds o f psychedelic trance and chillout across the USA. Since 1997, BSM has main tained a rigorous DJ schedule, having performed at over 200 events across 19 states. He is well known for his deeply psychedelic selections and dri ving, twisted night sets that energize any dancefloor.

It was that year when he and long time friend Dave West founded Ch angmian Productions; thus putting Boston on the national “trance-map”. After three years of successful trance weeklies, Changmian decided to shi ft gears in the fall of 2000 and dedicate itself to propagating only the ps ychedelic sound. A few months later, “Samsara,”Boston’s first ever all p sy-trance weekly, was started at a local bar in Cambridge. After Sams ara ended, Dino joined forces with Dave Henshaw and Mathwin to launch Bosto n’s second all psy-trance weekly, “Anitya”. The storied two year hist ory of this event made Boston synonymous with psy-trance. Over the years Di no has become known for his melodic and groovy full-on psy-trance sound.&nb sp;His sets usually don’t exceed 136 BPM, giving the music space to breathe while allowing the listener to hear and feel every nuance. Dino’s diversi ty has become one of his finest attributes as a DJ. Whether it be full-on, progressive, chill out, or atmospheric drum & bass; Dean’s passion for gmian) ce DJ in his earlier years, Dave wasn’t introduced to the psychedelic sound until he spent 1998 living in Cape Town, South Africa. His first interacti ons with the sound were relatively indifferent and it wasn’t until his intr oduction to Dino in the fall fo 2000 that he was able to appreciate how&nbs p;beautiful, malleable, and adaptive the psychedelic sound could be. It was albums like Atmos’s “Headcleaner,” Vibrasphere’s “Echo,” and XV Kilist’s self-titled full-length that enamored Dave to no end. He imme diately joined Changmian Productions and began working at “Samsara.” A fter that weekly ended, he teamed up with Dino and Mathwin to&nbs p;start “Anitya” – Boston’s storied two-year all-psy-trance weekly.&nb sp;To this day, (aside from writing long winded party reviews and babbling on the lists all the time) Dave continues to refine his musical tastes and DJ skills in order to show how “progressive” and “psychedelic” music c an unify, harmonize, and elevate parties to new heights. Primarily int o the “Scandinavian sound” from labels like Iboga, Digital Structures, and Interzone; Dave has been lucky enough to share the stage with many of the D J’s and artists he respects the most. Expect a very groovy, very danceable, and very ear-friendly set from Boston’s propagator of the progressive psyc Lauryn ( -handedly throwing parties and producing her own all-trance radio show whil e a student at Hamilton College in upstate New York. A chance encounter wit h Ammon EP at Satellite Records opened her door into the psychedelic world and Lauryn has since, never looked back. Starting in the winter of 2002, La uryn has played amazing sets at Boston’s prestiguious psy-weekly, “Anitya”, has served (and continues to serve) as a resident of Sonic Beating’s monthly “Psyforia”, and has played multiple one-offs from Maine to Pro vidence to New York and New Jersey. Still involved in a weekly radio show o ut of Tufts University, Lauryn is consistently honing and fine-tuning the a lready impeccable DJ skills that have made her a Boston crowd-pleaser. Thou gh best known for blowing up dancefloors with her South African influenced dark funky full on sounds from the likes of Wizzy Noise, Altom, Rinkadink, and Damage, Lauryn has also been exploring the gentler side of the psy chedelic sound. Her latest mix-CD, “Sub-Liminal” shows this, featurin g tracks by Antix, Frogacult, Bitmonx and others. the man behind that name was busy producing “Free Update,” an all-psy-tranc e radio program on a local college station. After honing his skills in the isolated studio, Binary broke into the public eye with two ear-popping sets at Boston’s long-standing psy-weekly, “Anitya.” From there, he never looke d back. Though “Free Update” remains a fixture in Boston radio, Binary has branched out into a highly skilled and versatile DJ (joined Anitya’s reside ncy in September 2003,) a crafty and intelligent sound engineer, and the fo under of his own production company – “Sonic Beating Productions.” Currentl y serving as the resident of his monthly brainchild, “Psyforia;” Binary has played to packed dancefloors all over the Eastern United States – most not ably at last year’s Omni-Dance, where he delivered a full-on set that tosse d and crushed the outdoor audience. Though his versatility and musica l library have grown exponentially over the course of the last few years, B inary is most known for his powerful, intense, and at times overwhelming fu ll-on trance.

July 2nd at Club Exit Brookyln. M Sunday July 4th – American Independence Day -JJuly 9th – d Open Air Revival with Kr i and Blue Spectral Monkey (Touch Samadhi, Ashville, North Carolina) Kri is the dj who never ceases to amaze with his ability to tap into the momen t and play exactly what is fuckin right. Right, that is, if you like your Trance tracks like a tidal wave, like a werewolfs howl, like a sandblaster busting open your third eye. As he comes across quiet and somewhat reserve d in person, one would not, at first, realize that Kri is on a mission, a serious quest to bring Psychedelic Trance music to the people, and to brin g the people to a state of enlightenment in the process. Caught up in the party scene of the 90s and gaining a reputation for his skills in mixing b reakbeat and scratching, Kri left it all behind to pursue full-time the ha unting promise Goa trance laid out for him. Now, he has single handedly cr eated a devout Trance family in a tiny, southern town that had previously never heard of any such thing, orchestrating parties and gatherings whose emphasis is holistic, about the music and the magic, never getting lost in the hype or the egocentrism of the business. Starting to build a body of his own compositions, edgy pieces demanding the listener to recognize Tran ces primal roots, Kri is showing himself as an incredibly dedicated Goa Tr ance musician and dj. More and more, his skills are being sought after in places all over the country, and I will venture a reason why. To listen to Kri play is to remember our legacy as spiritual beings with tumultuous de sires, with an innate need to pound our feet into the Earth to raise our p rayers to the heavens…on the dance floor that translates to his creating all-consuming, orgiastic rituals of dance where he pushes you past your l imits to a place beyond a good party or a great time, but to a place where you can capture a glimpse of a future in which the primal and the technolo gical fuse to bring us a passionate and fulfilling existence on a planet t hat survives. Heavy? Yeah, but so is the Psychedelic Goa Trance experience and heavier still is a night filled with Kris dark, driving tracks, his momentum slowly building like a panthers body tensing each muscle till its time to strike its prey, and then, youre a goner. JKri first played in Ne w York at an outdoor festival by the d and most recently in Jersey City for Omnitribe.

In Siberia, Mongolia, Uzbekistan, there has always been a strong t radition of healers and healing’s rituals, belonging to all religious syst ems. In the past 70 years these countries have been ruled by communist reg imes and suffered the anti religious campaign of Stalin, but despite the h arshness of this persecution they were able to preserve their spiritual kn owledge and healing mthods.

Through the terrible years of death and persecution of all religious people in Mongolia she survived, finding within herself the str ength to overcome the despair that surrounded her people. After seventy ye ars of Communist rule she is left as the only keeper of the Chod lineage i n Mongolia. Tibetan Master Namkhai Norbu Rinpoche was invited to Mongoli a to give Dzogchen teachings and to advise the Mongolian people during the days of the “reconstruction” of the Buddhist faith. “Chod means cutting through our Ego, it means to confront every circumstance in life with the awareness that Ego is the root of all problems. Developing this capacity, Chod practitioners train their compassion by living in extreme conditions in order to help others. “If during your life, you dedicate yourself to t he Dharma, at death your mind will naturally follow the path of truth… D on’t be attached to what you are leaving behind. We will meet again in the Land of the Dakini. ” -Doljin Kandro Suren NADIA STEPANOVA: BURYATIAN S HAMAN SKU: MY76324; ISBN: 1561763241; CPU: 7-15098-76324-8 30 min. $ 24.9 8 VHS Nadia Stepanova, a Buryatian shaman, brings back to life the ancien t Taiga ritual ceremonies & trance dances of her people.

Nadia Stepanova Ananyeda is a Buryatian lady shaman trying to bring back ritual ceremonie s, trance dances that for centuries have ruled the life in the Taiga. “.. .during all these years there was an attempt to separate the individual fr om his spirituality and as a result many people forgot their soul … I ho pe that our young people will again be aware of spirituality, of the Spiri t of Nature and of the gifts that Mother Nature bestows us. My dream is th at in Time, people will start to understand themselves and to understand o ther people, because when a person realizes the Sacred Spirit within himse lf, he is in touch with Buddha, Jesus, Allah, and this is wonderful.If a p erson prays to his Gods he will never go beyond the limits of self-respect and will never abuse someone else.” HABIBA: A SUFI SAINT FROM UZBEKISTAN SKU: MY76403; ISBN: 1561764035; CPU: 7-15098-76403-0 30 min. $ 24.98 V HS Habiba, a Muslim shamanic healer in Uzbekistan, belongs to the earliest “Chain of Mystic TransmissionE2809D of a Sufi lineage of teachers.

A Muslim country: its spir itual tradition derives from the teachings of all the great religions of t he earth. “Truth, teachings and disciples all together form a hand. When a n ignorant person looks at the hand he might see that each finger is unlik e the other and will not notice the movement of the hand itself. Therefore the task of the teacher is to speak to each person according to the level of his understanding. “People come to me every day asking for help. This is very important.

E2809CForgiveness allowed me to enjoy the autumn of my life. Forgiveness is not merely a word, a prayer pronounc ed with our lips, it is somthing we conquer inside ourself. Forgiveness s et me free; everything gains a less distinctive shape, each thought is sof ter and passing by my heart it doesn’t hurt my feelings. “People now come to me asking for help: I speak to them, my words flow like a river soothi ng their pain. I am amazed, and with my thought I go back to the One who s peaks through my tongue. Many ask for advice as if I might have accumulate d a treasure that I can pull out to relieve other beings.

When the star appears a strong heat falls from above and my e yes are filled with tears. The strength of the star comes down from the sk y until gradually everybody bends to the earth.” “To get in touch with t he spirits of the mountains and to sooth them we use our traditional throa t singing chants whose melodies derive from our contemplation of life, the sound of nature.” WHERE EAGLES FLY (5 tape set of all of the above) SKU: MY76405; ISBN: 1561764051; CPU: 7-15098-76405-4 2 hrs. 30 min. $ 99.98 VHS For more infor mation about Mystic Fire Video’s 140+ spiritual, artistic and avant garde titles, please visit our website to see photos and Quicktime video preview clips: web mysticfire Click the CATALOG button on the upper l eft corner, which will direct you to a page displaying the various area of interest, which you can browse.

Living the firs t inflation from inside the structure is one of those moments. As soon as the structure is inflated enough to pierce it and cut the first entrance, generally less than half a minute after the fan has been turned on, it is possible to get inside comfortably, without crawling and, maybe because of the noticeable expansion of the space, without claustrophobic sensation. From a pranayama perspective it’s witnessing the birth of this structure, disturbingly, from inside the one being born. The first breath, the first i ntake of this big lung, the immaculate inside, the strong smell of plastic everything here screams: primal. It is a very intimate moment. 100% of my field of vision is filled with the structure. Anywhere I look, the stru cture is all I can see. My visual range is suddenly reduced. This immersiv e experience is so intense that I almost have trouble breathing. Technical ly I can inhale but the fact that I am abruptly presented with an unusual and overwhelming context makes me react in a way that reminds me of the fi rst time I went snorkeling. I just have a hard time believing that I can b reathe in such an environment. The panic doesn’t last long. Being isolated in this chamber makes me aware of the slight air movement that I might no t have noticed in a regular situation. Suddenly as my senses are deprived of the usual bombardment of stimuli they grab anything they can and their first self-assigned job is to determine whether the incoming air is cool or warm. I have the feeling of being alternatively hot and cold, very fast. As this temperature issue fades away the air strikes me as being of an unu sual nature. I can feel it. There is a flow. This flow is constant, withou t fluctuations, dead regular and almost imperceptible. This voluntary imm ersion into a closed environment providing a stimulus shortage and immedia tely resulting in awareness enhancement makes this experience the instant- gratification (and disturbing-physical-changes-free) version of Eddie Jess up’s (William Hurt) experiences in Ken Russell’s 1980 movie Altered States . The seam between the two sheets of plastic is my new horizon. During the first inflation of pillow-like structures this horizon is rarely parallel to the ground and as my usual reference points are faded in the backgroun d behind the translucent film I have difficulties maintaining my balance. I readjust my bench mark by focussing on the floor rather than on the hori zon. The kill, usually at the end of the night, is another noticeable mome nt. The party is over, the daylight invades the space through any availabl e hole, the structure has been emptied of every object that seemed worth s aving, it is time to deflate. In an effort to make the best of it and to d o it fast (starting to be pretty tired) I cut the ceiling/roof in the midd le of the structure from side to side. The structure deflates rapidly, fal ling on both my sides at the same pace, letting me emerge from bubble real ity in a venusian way. Time to go to bed. w!

M Sunday July 4th – American Independence Day -aJXX July 9th – d Open Air Revival with Kri and Blue Spectral Mon key (Touch Samadhi, Ashville, North Carolina) Kri is the dj who never cea ses to amaze with his ability to tap into the moment and play exactly what is fuckin right. Right, that is, if you like your Trance tracks like a ti dal wave, like a werewolfs howl, like a sandblaster busting open your thir d eye. As he comes across quiet and somewhat reserved in person, one would not, at first, realize that Kri is on a mission, a serious quest to bring Psychedelic Trance music to the people, and to bring the people to a stat e of enlightenment in the process. Caught up in the party scene of the 90s and gaining a reputation for his skills in mixing breakbeat and scratching Kri left it all behind to pursue full-time the haunting promise Goa tranlaid out for him. Now, he has single handedly created a devout Trance f amily in a tiny, southern town that had previously never heard of any such thing, orchestrating parties and gatherings whose emphasis is holistic, a bout the music and the magic, never getting lost in the hype or the egocen trism of the business. Starting to build a body of his own compositions, e dgy pieces demanding the listener to recognize Trances primal roots, Kri i s showing himself as an incredibly dedicated Goa Trance musician and dj. M ore and more, his skills are being sought after in places all over the cou ntry, and I will venture a reason why. To listen to Kri play is to remembe r our legacy as spiritual beings with tumultuous desires, with an innate n eed to pound our feet into the Earth to raise our prayers to the heavens.. .on the dance floor that translates to his creating all-consuming, orgiast ic rituals of dance where he pushes you past your limits to a place beyond a good party or a great time, but to a place where you can capture a glim pse of a future in which the primal and the technological fuse to bring us a passionate and fulfilling existence on a planet that survives. Heavy? Y eah, but so is the Psychedelic Goa Trance experience, and heavier still is a night filled with Kris dark, driving tracks, his momentum slowly buildi ng like a panthers body tensing each muscle till its time to strike its pre y, and then, youre a goner. Kri first played in New York at an outdoor fes tival by the d and most recently in Jersey City for Omnitribe.

Since a ncient time, all over the world, the “sacred art” of healing has been to a great extent in women’s hands: women, from different religions, have had the duty of maintaining, through rituals and sacred ceremonies an harmonio us link between man, nature and the supernatural world, since, according t o all ancient knowledge, physical and mental health derives from a style o f life that respects nature and, all the more, the supernatural. In Siber ia, Mongolia, Uzbekistan, there has always been a strong tradition of heal ers and healing’s rituals, belonging to all religious systems. In the past 70 years these countries have been ruled by communist regimes and suffere d the anti religious campaign of Stalin, but despite the harshness of this persecution they were able to preserve their spiritual knowledge and heal ing mthods. This special documentary series is a rare and beautiful portr ait of the important E28093 and vanishing E28093 phenomenon of genui ne shamanism. The potential for personal healing and cultural understandi ng, contained within these rare films cannot be overstated. Do yourself t he favor of getting these before they are no longer available!

Doljin Kandro Sure n is a spiritual guide for thousands of people that come to her from thro ughout Mongolia and Russia. As a young girl she understood that the true m eaning of happiness was complete devotion to others, helping the troubled, living among the afflicted she started her long journey as a Chod woman. Through the terrible years of death and persecution of all religious peopl e in Mongolia she survived, finding within herself the strength to overcom e the despair that surrounded her people. After seventy years of Communist rule she is left as the only keeper of the Chod lineage in Mongolia. Ti betan Master Namkhai Norbu Rinpoche was invited to Mongolia to give Dzogch en teachings and to advise the Mongolian people during the days of the “re construction” of the Buddhist faith. “Chod means cutting through our Ego, it means to confront every circumstance in life with the awareness that E go is the root of all problems. Developing this capacity, Chod practitione rs train their compassion by living in extreme conditions in order to help others. “If during your life, you dedicate yourself to the Dharma, at dea th your mind will naturally follow the path of truth… Don’t be attached to what you are leaving behind. We will meet again in the Land of the Daki ni. ” -Doljin Kandro Suren NADIA STEPANOVA: BURYATIAN SHAMAN SKU: MY7632 4; ISBN: 1561763241; CPU: 7-15098-76324-8 30 min. $ 24.98 VHS Nadia Ste panova, a Buryatian shaman, brings back to life the ancient Taiga ritual c eremonies & trance dances of her people. Siberia is the cradle of Shamanis m, which appeared a long time ago at the dawn of mankind but came under as sault in the 30s during Stalin’s anti-religion campaign, when rel igious people were persecuted and killed. Nadia Stepanova Ananyeda is a Bu ryatian lady shaman trying to bring back ritual ceremonies, trance dances that for centuries have ruled the life in the Taiga. “…during all these years there was an attempt to separate the individual from his spirituali ty and as a result many people forgot their soul … I hope that our youn g people will again be aware of spirituality, of the Spirit of Nature and of the gifts that Mother Nature bestows us. My dream is that in Time, peop le will start to understand themselves and to understand other people, bec ause when a person realizes the Sacred Spirit within himself, he is in tou ch with Buddha, Jesus, Allah, and this is wonderful.If a person prays to h is Gods he will never go beyond the limits of self-respect and will never abuse someone else.” HABIBA: A SUFI SAINT FROM UZBEKISTAN SKU: MY76403; IS BN: 1561764035; CPU: 7-15098-76403-0 30 min. $ 24.98 VHS Habiba, a Musl im shamanic healer in Uzbekistan, belongs to the earliest “Chain of Mystic TransmissionE2809D of a Sufi lineage of teachers. Habiba is a Tabib, a Muslim healer, who belongs to a lineage of teachers whose main representa tive is the great master Bahaudin Nacksband. Uzbekistan is a dreamlike lan d of turquoise domes and minarets, a crossroad of western and eastern civi lization along the Silk Road. A Muslim country: its spiritual tradition d erives from the teachings of all the great religions of the earth. “Truth teachings and disciples all together form a hand. When an ignorant perso n looks at the hand he might see that each finger is unlike the other and will not notice the movement of the hand itself. Therefore the task of the teacher is to speak to each person according to the level of his understa nding. “People come to me every day asking for help. This is very importan t. This is the step that opens their hearts, that allows them to surrender to God’s love and compassion. Along the years I have learned that this is the secret of healing.” SAVONIHA: A SIBERIAN OLD BELIEVER SKU #: 76402 30 min. $ 24.98 VHS Savoniha belongs to the “Old Believers”, a sect of th e Russian Orthodox Church who was exiled Siberia, many centuries ago. Al ong the centuries they never ceased to be persecuted, Savoniha, 95 years o ld when this film was made, witnessed Stalin’s anti-religious campaign los ing her father, one of the main spiritual representatives of the Siberian Old Believers. E2809CForgiveness allowed me to enjoy the autumn of my life. Forgiveness is not merely a word, a prayer pronounced with our lips, it is somthing we conquer inside ourself. Forgiveness set me free; every thing gains a less distinctive shape, each thought is softer and passing b y my heart it doesn’t hurt my feelings. “People now come to me asking for help: I speak to them, my words flow like a river soothing their pain. I am amazed, and with my thought I go back to the One who speaks through my tongue. Many ask for advice as if I might have accumulated a treasure that I can pull out to relieve other beings. But I see no bag! I only see a sm all key that allows me to talk like a bird to the sky.” MOON HEART: THE M AGICAL WORLDOF TUVINIAN SHAMANS SKU: MY76404; ISBN: 1561764043; CPU: 7-1509 8-76404-7 30 min. $ 24.98 VHS Moon Heart is a shaman from Tuva, a very powerful healer who speaks to the stars. Tuva is a very ancient country of shamans and throat singers. Tuva lies between the Siberian forests and the central Asian desert, marking the center of Asia. The high Sayan moun tains protected Tuva, keeping it wild and pure. Tuvinian people love natur e and live in harmony, fearing the rage of the powerful spirits of the mou ntain. “To heal a person I invoke his star asking it to come down. When the star appears a strong heat falls from above and my eyes are filled wi th tears. The strength of the star comes down from the sky until gradually everybody bends to the earth.” “To get in touch with the spirits of the mountains and to sooth them we use our traditional throat singing chants whose melodies derive from our contemplation of life, the sound of nature. ” WHERE EAGLES FLY (5 tape set of all of the above) SKU: MY76405; ISBN: 1 561764051; CPU: 7-15098-76405-4 2 hrs. 30 min. $ 99.98 VHS For more information about Myst ic Fire Video’s 140+ spiritual, artistic and avant garde titles, please vi sit our website to see photos and Quicktime video preview clips: w ww.mysticfire Click the CATALOG button on the upper left corner, which will direct you to a page displaying the various area of interest, which you can browse.

Living the first inflation from inside the structure is one of those moments. As soon as the structure is inflated enough to pierce it and cut the first entrance, generally less th an half a minute after the fan has been turned on, it is possible to get i nside comfortably, without crawling and, maybe because of the noticeable e xpansion of the space, without claustrophobic sensation. From a pranayama perspective it’s witnessing the birth of this structure, disturbingly, fro m inside the one being born. The first breath, the first intake of this bi g lung, the immaculate inside, the strong smell of plastic, everything her e screams: primal. It is a very intimate moment. 100% of my field of visio n is filled with the structure. Anywhere I look, the structure is all I ca n see. My visual range is suddenly reduced. This immersive experience is s o intense that I almost have trouble breathing. Technically I can inhale b ut the fact that I am abruptly presented with an unusual and overwhelming context makes me react in a way that reminds me of the first time I went s norkeling. I just have a hard time believing that I can breathe in such an environment. The panic doesn’t last long. Being isolated in this chamber makes me aware of the slight air movement that I might not have noticed in a regular situation. Suddenly as my senses are deprived of the usual bomb ardment of stimuli they grab anything they can and their first self-assign ed job is to determine whether the incoming air is cool or warm. I have th e feeling of being alternatively hot and cold, very fast. As this temperat ure issue fades away the air strikes me as being of an unusual nature. I c an feel it. There is a flow. This flow is constant, without fluctuations, dead regular and almost imperceptible. This voluntary immersion into a clo sed environment providing a stimulus shortage and immediately resulting in awareness enhancement makes this experience the instant-gratification (an d disturbing-physical-changes-free) version of Eddie Jessup’s (William Hur t) experiences in Ken Russell’s 1980 movie Altered States. The seam betwe en the two sheets of plastic is my new horizon. During the first inflation of pillow-like structures this horizon is rarely parallel to the ground a nd as my usual reference points are faded in the background behind the tra nslucent film I have difficulties maintaining my balance. I readjust my be nch mark by focussing on the floor rather than on the horizon. The kill, u sually at the end of the night, is another noticeable moment. The party is over, the daylight invades the space through any available hole, the stru cture has been emptied of every object that seemed worth saving, it is tim e to deflate. In an effort to make the best of it and to do it fast (starti ng to be pretty tired) I cut the ceiling/roof in the middle of the structu re from side to side. The structure deflates rapidly, falling on both my s ides at the same pace, letting me emerge from bubble reality in a venusian way. Time to go to bed.

M Sunday July 4th – American Independenc e Day -aJXX July 9th – d Open Air Revival with Kri and Blue Spectral Mo nkey (Touch Samadhi, Ashville, North Carolina) Kri is the dj who neverases to amaze with his ability to tap into the moment and play exactly wha t is fuckin right. Right, that is, if you like your Trance tracks like a t idal wave, like a werewolfs howl, like a sandblaster busting open your thi rd eye. As he comes across quiet and somewhat reserved in person, one woul d not, at first, realize that Kri is on a mission, a serious quest to brin g Psychedelic Trance music to the people, and to bring the people to a sta te of enlightenment in the process. Caught up in the party scene of the 90s and gaining a reputation for his skills in mixing breakbeat and scratchin g, Kri left it all behind to pursue full-time the haunting promise Goa tra nce laid out for him. Now, he has single handedly created a devout Trance family in a tiny, southern town that had previously never heard of any suc h thing, orchestrating parties and gatherings whose emphasis is holistic, about the music and the magic, never getting lost in the hype or the egoce ntrism of the business. Starting to build a body of his own compositions, edgy pieces demanding the listener to recognize Trances primal roots, Kri is showing himself as an incredibly dedicated Goa Trance musician and dj. More and more, his skills are being sought after in places all over the co untry, and I will venture a reason why. To listen to Kri play is to rememb er our legacy as spiritual beings with tumultuous desires, with an innate need to pound our feet into the Earth to raise our prayers to the heavens. ..on the dance floor that translates to his creating all-consuming, orgias tic rituals of dance where he pushes you past your limits to a place beyon d a good party or a great time, but to a place where you can capture a gli mpse of a future in which the primal and the technological fuse to bring u s a passionate and fulfilling existence on a planet that survives. Heavy? Yeah, but so is the Psychedelic Goa Trance experience, and heavier still i s a night filled with Kris dark, driving tracks, his momentum slowly build ing like a panthers body tensing each muscle till its time to strike its pr ey, and then, youre a goner. Kri first played in New York at an outdoor fe stival by the d and most recently in Jersey City for Omnitribe.

M Sunday July 4th – American Indep endence Day -aJXX July 9th – d Open Air Revival with Kri and Blue Spect ral Monkey (Touch Samadhi, Ashville, North Carolina) Kri is the dj who ne ver ceases to amaze with his ability to tap into the moment and play exact ly what is fuckin right. Right, that is, if you like your Trance tracks li ke a tidal wave, like a werewolfs howl, like a sandblaster busting open yo ur third eye. As he comes across quiet and somewhat reserved in person, on e would not, at first, realize that Kri is on a mission, a serious quest t o bring Psychedelic Trance music to the people, and to bring the people to a state of enlightenment in the process. Caught up in the party scene of t he 90s and gaining a reputation for his skills in mixing breakbeat and scr atching, Kri left it all behind to pursue full-time the haunting promise G oa trance laid out for him. Now, he has single handedly created a devout T rance family in a tiny, southern town that had previously never heard of a ny such thing, orchestrating parties and gatherings whose emphasis is holi stic, about the music and the magic, never getting lost in the hype or the egocentrism of the business. Starting to build a body of his own composit ions, edgy pieces demanding the listener to recognize Trances primal roots Kri is showing himself as an incredibly dedicated Goa Trance musician an d dj. More and more, his skills are being sought after in places all over the country, and I will venture a reason why. To listen to Kri play is to remember our legacy as spiritual beings with tumultuous desires, with an i nnate need to pound our feet into the Earth to raise our prayers to the he avens…on the dance floor that translates to his creating all-consuming, orgiastic rituals of dance where he pushes you past your limits to a place beyond a good party or a great time, but to a place where you can capture a glimpse of a future in which the primal and the technological fuse to b ring us a passionate and fulfilling existence on a planet that survives. H eavy? Yeah, but so is the Psychedelic Goa Trance experience, and heavier st ill is a night filled with Kris dark, driving tracks, his momentum slowly building like a panthers body tensing each muscle till its time to strike its prey, and then, youre a goner. Kri first played in New York at an outd oor festival by the d and most recently in Jersey City for Omnitribe.

Many thanks Alexandra Bruce Product Manager Mystic Fire Video, Inc. 631-668-4644 alexandra at mysticfire TripOutNY meets Infected Mushroom By Ari ( ar id at djcentral ) So several months after the release of Converting Veget arians album, how has it been received? The album was received very well w orld-wide, much better then we expected… it sold double then the previou s CDs. That album had a new direction compared to your previous work. Did your fans “get it”? Well, some did and some didn’t… but in general it w as a huge success for us, because we gathered new fans that never heard ab out infected before. And, the “old school” fans liked it in the end too. How did you pick the artwork of Converting Vegetarians album cover? We just looked at some work of a lot of artists that make weird stuff and that pi cture got us, can’t explain much why… we just found it really interestin g. So you will be spending some time at home in Israel over the next coupl e of months. Does this mean the next album is in the works? Yep, we made a little break in order to finish the upcoming album. It’s impossible to p erform all the time and produce as well… so we had to make this break. Who manages you and for how long? Do you plan to release your next album o n B.N.E.? Our booking agents are devided in two: one is for the US and Nor th America which is “Coast To Coast”, an agency managed by Ron Rivlin. Th e other is Eyal Yankovich (Hommega) that manages the rest of the world. O ur label is B.N.E from the beginning and the next album will on it as well . We feel at home with B.N.E., they push us really well, and the sales ar e increasing each year. So, no complaints. 🙂 You have collaborated with so many different artists, there’s too many to name. How do you like the experience of working with other artists, and which ones did you like wor king with the most? We love to collaborate with different artists because t hey always bring fresh ideas and some more laughter into the studio, that is always good … for us the most challenging artist to work with was Sim on Posford (Aka. Spongle, Hallucinogen) because we have a lot of respect f or his work. What does each of you contribute creatively when working on n ew tracks in the studio? Well Duvdev is in charge of the coffee and me (Er ez) is responsible of the snacks. 🙂 You have played in the United States many times before. Do you find that the psytrance movement here is chang ing with each of your visits? Absolutely, the trance scene in the states is growing massively, and we like it because there are more and more fresh s cenes each time! How do you like New York? You’ve had time to check thing s out a bit, haven’t you? New York is our favorite city in the world, beca use you can do anything you want, any time! You can buy any equipment you want, any time, and at the best price and deliver it to your hotel room.. . plus 2 eggs in the morning… this exists only in New York.! Any predic tions about your performance here this week? Will we hear tracks from the upcoming album? We haven’t preformed in New York for about 2 years, and we are expecting a serious party! The live act will be completely new with some additional remixes from the Converting Vegetarians album. Where is e ach of you from in Israel? What are the trance scene and the party scene in general like in Israel these days, with all that constant turmoil going on? Both of us are from the north of Israel. The trance scene in Israel i s HUGE, you can almost call it mainstream. And because the parties here a re so great; for example, a 60,000 people party in the University of Tel-A viv in the middle of the day… (full on rocking!), you can’t really feel the stress of the situation when you are having fun at a party like that! How old is each of you? Married? Kids? Duvdev 29, Divorced, No Kids. Er ez 23, Girlfriend, No Kids… Before recognition, what did you all do for a living? Before, Duvdev was working in a Steel Factory, and me (Erez) work ing in a computer shop, as computer engineer. Every DJ/performer has that one stupid moment on stage they’ll always remember. Care to share yours? It was in Switzerland, in front of 5,000 people, the computer crashed in th e middle of the live show, and the backup too! And there was a compete sil ence for about 5 minutes, until the computer was restarted. I played the s ynths during these never ending 5 minutes and Duvdev was hitting the compu ter so that it will restart faster… Not much fun…. What else are you into besides the music? We like to EAT, Play PlayStation2, See movies… an d Duvdev is usually getting drunk in some pubs, finding himself in unknown apartments… 🙂 What’s the “must hear” track of the moment for you right now? Astrix – Coolio, J.views – Muse Breaks, Violet Vision – Your Voice, S ub6 – What’s in Your Mind, Skazi – I Wish Remix (by Infected) See you soo n!

Right, that is, if you like your Trance tracks like a tidal wave, like a werewolfs howl, like a sandblaster busting open your third eye. As he comes across quiet and somewhat reserved in person, one would not, at fi rst, realize that Kri is on a mission, a serious quest to bring Psychedelic Trance music to the people, and to bring the people to a state of enlighte nment in the process. Caught up in the party scene of the 90s and gaining a reputation for his skills in mixing breakbeat and scratching, Kri left it all behind to pursue full-time the haunting promise Goa trance laid out for him. Now, he has single handedly created a devout Trance family in a tiny, southern town that had previously never heard of any such thing, orchestra ting parties and gatherings whose emphasis is holistic, about the music and the magic, never getting lost in the hype or the egocentrism of the busine ss. Starting to build a body of his own compositions, edgy pieces demanding the listener to recognize Trances primal roots, Kri is showing himsel f as an incredibly dedicated Goa Trance musician and dj. More and more his skills are being sought after in places all over the country, and I w our legacy as spiritual beings with tumultuous desires, with an innate nee d to pound our feet into the Earth to raise our prayers to the heavens…on the dance floor that translates to his creating all-consuming, orgiastic r ituals of dance where he pushes you past your limits to a place beyond a go od party or a great time, but to a place where you can capture a glimpse of a future in which the primal and the technological fuse to bring us a pass ionate and fulfilling existence on a planet that survives.

This he d erived from basic physical principles like cause and effect eg. a pool cue ball hitting a strip ball and it going into a pocket. As purely biologica l agents, it just doesn’t make moral sense to behave if you can get away wi th it. Therefore humans need the threat of punishment to behave in Hobbes’ view. Psychedelic News Finally the shipment of Mushroom Magazine’s Tra ncers Guide to the Galaxy came in – in a big box from Germany labelled MUS HROOM magazine. Oh great.

Right, that is, if you like your Trance tracks like a tidal wave, l ike a werewolfs howl, like a sandblaster busting open your third eye. As h e comes across quiet and somewhat reserved in person, one would not, at fi rst, realize that Kri is on a mission, a serious quest to bring Psychedeli c Trance music to the people, and to bring the people to a state of enligh tenment in the process. Caught up in the party scene of the 90s and gainin g a reputation for his skills in mixing breakbeat and scratching, Kri left it all behind to pursue full-time the haunting promise Goa trance laid ou t for him. Now, he has single handedly created a devout Trance family in a tiny, southern town that had previously never heard of any such thing, or chestrating parties and gatherings whose emphasis is holistic, about the mu sic and the magic, never getting lost in the hype or the egocentrism of th e business. Starting to build a body of his own compositions, edgy pieces demanding the listener to recognize Trances primal roots, Kri is showing h imself as an incredibly dedicated Goa Trance musician and dj. More and mor e, his skills are being sought after in places all over the country, and I will venture a reason why. To listen to Kri play is to remember our legac y as spiritual beings with tumultuous desires, with an innate need to poun d our feet into the Earth to raise our prayers to the heavens…on the danfloor that translates to his creating all-consuming, orgiastic rituals of dance where he pushes you past your limits to a place beyond a good par ty or a great time, but to a place where you can capture a glimpse of a fu ture in which the primal and the technological fuse to bring us a passiona te and fulfilling existence on a planet that survives. Heavy? Yeah, but so is the Psychedelic Goa Trance experience, and heavier still is a night fi lled with Kris dark, driving tracks, his momentum slowly building like a p anthers body tensing each muscle till its time to strike its prey, and the n, youre a goner. Kri first played in New York at an outdoor festival by t he d and most recently in Jersey City for Omnitribe. Blue Spectral Monkey Touch Samadhi /Asheville, NC bio: As a core member of the TOUCH Samadhi family in Asheville, BSM has been quite busy in his mission to spread the sounds of psychedelic trance and chillout across the USA. Since 1997, BSM has maintained a rigorous DJ schedule, having performed at over 200 event s across 19 states. He is well known for his deeply psychedelic selection s and driving, twisted night sets that energize any dancefloor.

Right, that is, if you like your Trance tracks like a tid al wave, like a werewolfs howl, like a sandblaster busting open your thir d eye. As he comes across quiet and somewhat reserved in person, one woul d not, at first, realize that Kri is on a mission, a serious quest to bri ng Psychedelic Trance music to the people, and to bring the people to a s tate of enlightenment in the process. Caught up in the party scene of the 90s and gaining a reputation for his skills in mixing breakbeat and scra tching, Kri left it all behind to pursue full-time the haunting promise Go a trance laid out for him. Now, he has single handedly created a devout T rance family in a tiny, southern town that had previously never heard of any such thing, orchestrating parties and gatherings whose emphasis is ho listic, about the music and the magic, never getting lost in the hype or the egocentrism of the business. tarting to build a body of his own compo sitions, edgy pieces demanding the listener to recognize Trances primal r oots, Kri is showing himself as an incredibly dedicated Goa Trance musici an and dj. More and more, his skills are being sought after in places all over the country, and I will venture a reason why. To listen to Kri play is to remember our legacy as spiritual beings with tumultuous desires, wi th an innate need to pound our feet into the Earth to raise our prayers t o the heavens…on the dance floor that translates to his creating all-co nsuming, orgiastic rituals of dance where he pushes you past your limits to a place beyond a good party or a great time, but to a place where you can capture a glimpse of a future in which the primal and the technologic al fuse to bring us a passionate and fulfilling existence on a planet tha t survives. Heavy? Yeah, but so is the Psychedelic Goa Trance experience, and heavier still is a night filled with Kris dark, driving tracks, his momentum slowly building like a panthers body tensing each muscle till its time to strike its prey, and then, youre a goner. Kri first played in Ne w York at an outdoor festival by the d and most recently in Jersey City for Omnitribe. Blue Spectral Monkey Touch Samadhi /Asheville, NC bio: As a core member of the TOUCH Samadhi family in Asheville, BSM has been quite busy in his mission to spread the sounds of psychedelic trance and chillout across the USA. Since 1997, BSM has maintained a rigorous DJ sc hedule, having performed at over 200 events across 19 states. He is well known for his deeply psychedelic selections and driving, twisted night se ts that energize any dancefloor. Expect squishy, chunky grooves that stom p spiral staircases down into the earth, and then shoot you through slipp ery wormholes out into the deepest reaches of the galaxy, and beyond… – July 14th – Wednesday – GoaTrash2.0 Downstairs at Karma, 51 1st Ave b/w 3rd & 4th 10pm-4am, free, ID 21+ This week: DJs IcyCoil and Entheologi c /goatrash2.gif (web tranceam.org/goa trash2.gif) /goatrash2back.gif (web brain machines/goatrash2back.gif) -July 17th – El Nadiv -JQJuly 23 NC Dar k Soho Touch Samadhi outdoor festival web deerfields (web dee rfields/) the touch samadhi arts and music festival july 23-25 2004 neptunalia feast of the sun day out of time!

He has now moved on to start his own new label. Has be en on the scene since 1991 organising, promoting and djing. Here to promo te his new compilation which will be ready for release in July 2004. As sad spins a very dark, twisted psychedelic set … a journey from night i nto twilight… a set of mostly unreleased night tunez moving towards a twilight release.

Free Aatmah has played in Bombay and is a partner at Paradiso de Anjuna in Goa: DISCOGRAPHY Dj Asad a.k.a. Asad Zaidi, ‘dj freeaatm ah’ 7, Jo – Liza, 30 Sasmira Marg, PARADISO RECS. Worli, paradise at anjuna. 009122 2498 4128 Asad a.k.a Dj FREEAATMAH (33) was born and brought up in the city of Mum bai. Dj Asad began as early as 1986 (at a time when even the word Dee-ja y seemed to be alien in India), starting with commercial dance and then e xperimenting with rock, acid rock, retro and funk, progressing to acid ho use and garage by the late 80’s. He then discovered Techno, progressing to Psy, Acid and Goa Trance during the course of the 90’s. Asad along with two of his friends, Jeh and Whosane! have played an important role in set ting up the Goa trance scene, right from its infancy. The success of ‘Pa radiso de Anjuna’, a name known to all trance freaks and travelers in Goa and the world over, is proof of this. Together they have changed the way people party. Though being labeled as a purist, Asad appreciates and ret ains an extremely wide taste in music. He is open to spinning any kind of music so long as he likes it, regardless of how it is classified. Asad h eads the Paradiso team, which is the only professional Tranceparty organi zer and a record label in India. Asad has a great amount of experience on h is side which till date consists of parties worldwide, in U.S.A, Mauritiu s, all over Asia and India, to name a few. He has been an active part of ‘The Audiophile’ and the ‘Paradiso’ team along with DJ Whosane and Jeh Wa dia. This group set up and managed more than ten hip nightclubs in Mumbai city, ever since their first in 1991. He has channeled all this energies towards the growth of Psy and Goa trance scene in India and has thus bee n instrumental in taking the vibe to all major cities in the country. He has succeeded in giving the trance scene a very acceptable face in this o rthodox society. Ever since he visited Goa in 1991, he has been going back faithfully, every year to spin and collect new music because of Goa’s uni que energy. For him, his set should tell a story, slowly building up into full-fledged cosmic dance ritual ending with sounds that transcends one back to reality. Channeling the flow of cosmic energy, combining it with that of his and then sharing it with the crowd is what he looks to achiev e through his music. It is most important for him to awaken the love of t he universe in each individual. It is the whole spiritually enriching exp erience that he looks to share. It is about awakening the inner being in each individual thus creating a positive change. He believes that, throu gh this form of dynamic meditation he can create a change in the way peop le live their lives. It is in this form of music that thousands of peopl e can come together to achieve that level of consciousness, where the ind ividual dancer disappears and only the dance remains. People must step ou t o their misery and celebrate the greatness of life. This concept is app lied in organizing the trance Ganesh Visarjan Procession, the brainchild of DJ Asad. Thousands of people from all walks of life gather and dance t hrough the streets, a distance of 2 km covered in 7 hours. This has become an out of the ordinary gathering since the past 4 years. Anything that h e starts to do, is with the intention of making it happen as an ongoing p rocess. The trance scene at the Razzberry Rhinoceros, a popular nightclub in Mumbai, is yet another example of his dedication. Here, his team and he started and groomed the trance scene from infancy, focusing on encoura ging local and international talent. It is now globally known for the sam e. Now working on selective events and with select organizers so as to ma ke time to work on his psychedelic trance tracks (some in collaboration w ith renown psychedelic artists) in his personal home studio. Spinning regu larly to crowds of 1000 and more, DJ Asad does not disappoint. He is a we ll-known name in the trance circuit in India and his name attracts partyg oers. He is respected and loved by DJs and Artists from all over the worl d and he continues to grow and carry the positive vibe with him. Asad mix es CD’s and DAT, external FX and prefers to use Pioneer CDJ mixing consol es.

(Manna is a bibli cal term meaning “Bread of/from God”, believed by some scholars to symboli ze entheogenic Fungi or some type of psychedelic.) Even old New York w as once Nieuw Amsterdam. Also the fairy tail ‘Little Red Riding Hood’ was originally called ‘Little Red-Cap’. This most beautiful girl in the woods was given a bright red velvet cap by her grand mother (she’s the shroom). On Her way to bring wine to her Granny a big badass wolf tries to tempt her to stray from the path (wolves and Amanita bear strong correlations cr oss-continentally, Huichol indians have shamanism centered around this cor respondence). Anyway stuff happens, “the better to see you with” etc etc. And the wolf eats Red-Cap. ((((eeeeat the shroooom….))) Enter the Hun ter who cuts open the wolf’s stomach freeing her. So now Ganny enjoys her wine which had to be in the stomach first.

Funtheogenic Facts From Evan – Babes on Broomsticks The word E2809CwitchE2809D comes from an old Saxon word wica, meaning E2809Cwise oneE2809D. It is to the wise ones that the community tur ned to for many reasons, such as spiritual guidance and even for informat ion about what the future might bring. The witch, not unlike the Shaman, w as the central figure of the community and that is why she turns up in our traditions and folklore. On the eve of Samhain (what we now call Hallo ween) the witches would gather to perform the rites of divination. They wo uld prepare a hallucinogenic E2809CFlying OintmentE2809D to aid them in their journey. There are many recipes for this ointment all having a b ase of Belladonna or Mandrake, both highly psychoactive plants producing v isions and encouraging astral projection or ‘flight’ of the soul. The ointment was rubbed all over the body, especially in places where the skin tissue is rich in capillaries. The mucous membrane of the genitals was the preferred location. The ointment was applied to a broom handle then rubbe d on and inserted into the vagina. This is where we came up with the pictu re of witches flying on broomsticks. Think about that next time you watc Editorial I wanna go out right here and say t hat if anyone wants to do another weekly party (besides Thursdays and Wedn esdays at Thiasos and Karma respectively, with Seho on Wednesday being dar g aggro syle trance), please have the intelligence, crativity and compassi on to do it NOT at a place where there’s already a weekly. Like, don’t co me into Karma and try to pull a weekly there every Tuesday and sending it out on trance lists. Mindlessly doing another event at a location where there already is a successful/established event – and promoting it to as m any lists that will take it – is just wrong. It was done with Opium Den a while back and it sank. You know – “hey Wednesday is cool, and I don’t wa nt to look around for a venue for myself, so let’s just start one on Tuesda y at the same spot” Get some fucking creativity people! Why start your we ekly off on the wrong foot by double booking or booking at an extant locat ion? The World is your Oyster, this is not a zero sum game of one finite pie. There is no formula that will guarantee that people will come. I am not the official arbiter of what is right, but it doersn’t take a yogi to discern that throwing an event at a place called Karma will not necessari ly bring you good Karma.

Machinelf (d) opens Mo rning sets: Stas (Omnitribe) celebrates his birthday Luis (Dreamcatcher) T o be confirmed: Indra: (cross your fingers -see below, Indra is the brother of the vedic fire god Agni) Special Guest – Agni Agni is one of the most important of the Vedic gods. He is the god of fire, the messenger of the g ods, the acceptor of sacrifice. Agni is in everyone’s hearth; he is the vi tal spark of life, and so a part of him is in all living things; he is the fire which consumes food in peoples’ stomachs, as well as the fire which consumes the offerings to the gods. He is the fire of the sun, in the ligh tening bolt, and in the smoke column which holds up the heavens. The stars are sparks from his flame. He was so important to the ancient Indians that 200 hymns in the Rig Veda are addressed to him, and eight of its ten book s begin with praises dedicated to him. Agni is closely associated with In dra, and is sometimes said to be his twin brother. Thus Dyaus Pita and Prt hivi are named as two of his parents. But he has many more. Sometimes Kasy apa and Aditi are his parents; another time he is the son of a queen who k eeps his birth secret from her king. He was born, like Indra, in full powe r and vigor. Agni is also said to be the son of ten mothers who are all si sters; these are the ten fingers of man. Another story tells that he consu med his parents when he was born, as they could not provide for him; this is symbolic of the fire born when two sticks are rubbed together which qui ckly are burned up by it. Dawn and Night are his sisters, his wife is Svah a, and he is the father of Karttikeya. When Agni is described in anthropom orphic form, he sometimes has two faces which are smeared with butter. He has seven fiery tongues and sharpened, golden teeth. He is red in color, w ith black eyes and wild, black hair. He has seven arms and three legs, and seven rays of light emanate from his body. He either rides on a ram, or o n a chariot, pulled by goats or sometimes parrots. Agni loves all his wors hipers equally, and so is loved in turn by all of them. He visits everyone ‘s hearth, no matter if they are rich or poor. He is the mediator between the gods and mankind. He is a great consumer of Soma. When people use fire they must face it toward the proper direction for different uses. When f acing East, the fire should be used for sacrifices to the gods; when facin g South, the fire should be used for sacrifices to the Manes or spirits of the dead; a cooking fire should always face toward the West. The proper o ffering to Agni, and hence all the gods, is ghee, which is clarified butter . Agni also had the power to impart immortality on mortals, as well as rem ove all sins at the time of one’s death. In later times, Agni’s worship f ell off dramatically. He became an incarnation of either Shiva or Brahma. Eventually he has come only to be called on by lovers, and by men who wish to increase their virility. But that doesn’t mean ass grabbers won’t get publicly humiliated.

Word about E’s benefit s quickly spread beyond the therapeutic community. In addition, Sasha has created and self-tested hundreds of other psychoactive chemicals. Ann Shul gin, Sasha’s partner is a lay therapist who conducted psychedelic therapy before 1985, when E was effectively made illegal when it was reclassifi ed as a Schedule I d.

The neighbors are warned, our neural synapses are at the ready. It’s going to be a most excellent showcase for t he boston trance people, I’m going to pull out all the stops to get as man y New Yorkers as possible to fill the sizable space. Discounts will be giv en to Bostonians who make it down. Also I’m trying to hook up a charter b us from Fung Wah so you can have a dj entertain you on the way down. Flyer s will be up there in a couple of weeks, we also will have a another comma nd live performance from Jay Indigom (D-Space Studios/Alpha Channel/M-fiel d). Lauryn, Dino and Binary are already confirmed, and hopefully Goldilock s and Ammon EP are down to be down. There will be plenty of time for ever yone to play, any djs from the new england area email dino. And Bob the Z iatrance wizard is going to do tapestry art. If there are any weird crazy Boston artists that we can wrap this event around, please notify me and/or Dino. Fire is out b/c we’re indoors but what i’d love would be for examp le some weird MIT cyborgs with their battlebots. or somthing. And maybe fluorescent blue blood. Dino (Changmian) Perhaps the most experienced and i nfluential member of the Boston psy-trance community, Dean began holding s uccessful weeklies and all night beach gatherings as early as 1998. It was that year when he and long time friend Dave West founded Changmian Produc tions; thus putting Boston on the national “trance-map”. After three year s of successful trance weeklies, Changmian decided to shift gears in the f all of 2000 and dedicate itself to propagating only the psychedelic sound. A few months later, “Samsara,”Boston’s first ever all psy-trance weekly, w as started at a local bar in Cambridge. After Samsara ended, Dino joined forces with Dave Henshaw and Mathwin to launch Boston’s second all psy-tra nce weekly, “Anitya”. The storied two year history of this event made Bos ton synonymous with psy-trance. Over the years Dino has become known for h is melodic and groovy full-on psy-trance sound. His sets usually don’t exc eed 136 BPM, giving the music space to breathe, while allowing the listene r to hear and feel every nuance. Dino’s diversity has become one of his fi nest attributes as a DJ. Whether it be full-on, progressive, chill out, or atmospheric drum & bass; Dean’s passion for music knows no limits… Dave Henshaw (Changmian) A progressive and hard-trance DJ in his earlier years, Dave wasn’t introduced to the psychedelic sound until he spent 1998 livin g in Cape Town, South Africa. His first interactions with the sound were r elatively indifferent and it wasn’t until his introduction to Dino in the fall fo 2000 that he was able to appreciate how beautiful, malleable, and adaptive the psychedelic sound could be. It was albums like Atmos’s “Headc leaner,” Vibrasphere’s “Echo,” and XV Kilist’s self-titled full-length tha t enamored Dave to no end. He immediately joined Changmian Productions and began working at “Samsara.” After that weekly ended, he teamed up with Di no and Mathwin to start “Anitya” – Boston’s storied two-year all-psy-tranc e weekly. To this day, (aside from writing long winded party reviews and b abbling on the lists all the time) Dave continues to refine his musical ta stes and DJ skills in order to show how “progressive” and “psychedelic” mu sic can unify, harmonize, and elevate parties to new heights. Primarily in to the “Scandinavian sound” from labels like Iboga, Digital Structures, and Interzone; Dave has been lucky enough to share the stage with many of the DJ’s and artists he respects the most. Expect a very groovy, very danceab le, and very ear-friendly set from Boston’s propagator of the progressive psychedelic sound. Lauryn (Sonic Beating) Lauryn’s humble beginnings dat e back to 1998 when she was single-handedly throwing parties and producing her own all-trance radio show while a student at Hamilton College in upst ate New York. A chance encounter with Ammon EP at Satellite Records opened her door into the psychedelic world and Lauryn has since, never looked ba ck. Starting in the winter of 2002, Lauryn has played amazing sets at Bost on’s prestiguious psy-weekly, “Anitya”, has served (and continues to serve ) as a resident of Sonic Beating’s monthly “Psyforia”, and has played mult iple one-offs from Maine to Providence to New York and New Jersey. Still i nvolved in a weekly radio show out of Tufts University, Lauryn is consisten tly honing and fine-tuning the already impeccable DJ skills that have made her a Boston crowd-pleaser. Though best known for blowing up dancefloors with her South African influenced dark funky full on sounds from the likes of Wizzy Noise, Altom, Rinkadink, and Damage, Lauryn has also been explor ing the gentler side of the psychedelic sound. Her latest mix-CD, “Sub-Li minal” shows this, featuring tracks by Antix, Frogacult, Bitmonx and other s. Binary (Sonic Beating) Before anyone even heard the name “Binary” in Bo ston, the man behind that name was busy producing “Free Update,” an all-ps y-trance radio program on a local college station. After honing his skills in the isolated studio, Binary broke into the public eye with two ear-pop ping sets at Boston’s long-standing psy-weekly, “Anitya.” From there, he n ever looked back. Though “Free Update” remains a fixture in Boston radio, Binary has branched out into a highly skilled and versatile DJ (joined Ani tya’s residency in September 2003,) a crafty and intelligent sound enginee r, and the founder of his own production company – “Sonic Beating Producti ons.” Currently serving as the resident of his monthly brainchild, “Psyfor ia;” Binary has played to packed dancefloors all over the Eastern United S tates – most notably at last year’s Omni-Dance, where he delivered a full- on set that tossed and crushed the outdoor audience. Though his versatili ty and musical library have grown exponentially over the course of the last few years, Binary is most known for his powerful, intense, and at times overwhelming full-on trance. When Binary gets behind the system, you know y ou’re in for a good set. PLUS: Ammon EP & Goldilocks Live Morning set by Jay Indigom (D-Space Studios/Alpha Channel/M-field) Jay is back Alpha Cha nnel/M-field 100% LIVE (the whole thing!) (Soular Records, CT) Fresh fr om a widely lauded performance at the Heaven & Earth Center in February an d d’s Full Moon celebration at SETTIng in May, J will project up tempo t rance from “Alpha Channel” (J’s solo project-2003) and the newly formed “M -field” project (J and Rob’s collaboration material-2004) followed by an ho ur of down-tempo chillout music accompanied by live acoustic and electroni c instruments. So unhinge your mind and body to two hours of a trance jour ney that takes you from the metamagic of up-tempo night music which will m eld semi-transparently into progressive-styled morning trance as the sun r ises to finally leave you floating freely upon the waves of a premier chil lout performance. Studio 55 (i.e. home of Cata, Evan, Raffi, Zhenya and Ke nya) has been renovated repainted and refurnished and may heretofore be re ferred to as “S.E.T.T.ING”. The gathering on friday is intended to be a re action to the full moon, a congregation of deemsters, a chance to hear p sy trance on a top notch sound system, and, very specifically, to cooperat ively create a safe, clean and sacred environment, so that future avenues for love and entheospace may present themselves to us. Please remember th at the S.E.T.T.ING is a home for 5 people, so we implore you to help us ke ep it a clean home: please dispose butts in ashtrays, respect people’s per sonal belongings and artwork, respect women and children, respect and bewa re of the fact that ds and alcohol have the power to severely fuck you up and turn you into a babbling morron with rude behavior. Extra ways to help create the S.E.T.T.ING include bringing art, deco, party supplies, fl uoro-materials, food drink, plants or flowers. -August 11th – Wednesday – GoaTrash2.0 Downstairs at Karma, 51 1st Ave b/w 3rd & 4th 10pm-4am, free, ID 21+ /goatrash2.gif /goatra sh2back.gif -Aug 13th, 2004 Ecliptic-Trance confirmed at Club Exit Brookly n Ecliptic-Trance Presents: Chapter IV – The Doors Of Perception- 08.13.20 04 at “Club Exit” Brooklyn, NYC.

It is to the wise ones that the co mmunity turned to for many reasons, such as spiritual guidance and even for information about what the future might bring. The witch, not unlike the Shaman, was the central figure of the community and that is why she tu rns up in our traditions and folklore. On the e ve of Samhain (what we now call Halloween) the witches would gather to perf orm the rites of divination. They would prepare a hallucinogenic E2809CF lying OintmentE2809D to aid them in their journey. There are many recipe s for this ointment all having a base of Belladonna or Mandrake, both highl y psychoactive plants producing visions and encouraging astral projection o r ‘flight’ of the soul. &nbs

One of the biggest rock tours of the ’90s is finding this decade a lot less h ospitable. This year’s Lollapalooza tour, which was to feature acts includi ng Morrissey, Modest Mouse, PJ Harvey, and jam-band the String Cheese Inci dent, has been canceled due to poor ticket sales, according to a statement from promoters posted on the tour’s official website. ‘My heart aches al ong with the bands, and all of our employees, whose hard work developed on e of the most exciting and important tours that this nation was to see. My heart is broken,’ tour cofounder (and Jane’s Addiction frontman) Perry F arrell said in a statement. Another cofounder, William Morris Agency agent Marc Geiger, blamed the cancellation of the tour, which had been on hiatus from 1998 to 2002, on hard times for the concert industry as a whole. ‘I am in utter disbelief that a concert of this stature, with the most excit ing line-up I’ve seen in years did not galvanize ticket sales,’ he said i n a statement. ‘Many summer tours are experiencing weak ticket sales.’ A ll tickets sold from this year’s festival will be refunded, according to t he festival’s website. This year’s Lollapalooza was to be the first to be d ivided into two days at each stothe second day was to be headlined by t he String Cheese Incident, an act far removed from the festival’s alt-rock roots. ‘It’s risky it’s a real left turn,’ Farrell told EW last mont h.

Is the evil Leprechaun going to pop out and blow somebody’s head off. I couldn’ t make this stuff up. More muckraking to come… I got mugged for all I h ad this Saturday afternoon on my way to the deli, if anyone can help me fi nancially click here.

The d Fire Festival went off without a hitch with a lot of Burning Man people, even though I got mugged later that day in the area. We’re going to sit on our laurels for awhile and plan, until full moon in late July for a Philly 60 4 event and an indoor fundraiser in early August for the Goa Boston event a nd the Ecliptic Trance afterparty/Indian Independence Day. Now is a great time to join! The only psy-trance events this week in NYC are Goa Trash 2 on Wednesday and Thiasos Thursday. I will be stuck in NYC this weekend. Look to NYC604 and Safetydance for OT (offtrance)events. If anyone has a particularly sweet spot for a fundraiser on Friday email me privately. Goa Trash 2 this Wednesday June 23rd is at Karma, free, 1st ave between 3rd and 4th. This week, Gosha (Alphatrance) makes a rare appearance on the d ecks, he was one of ther first Russian psy-trance DJs in NYC. Plus Luis ( Influx) and Ogg Modd (Trance Warriors/d) and Machinelf. Last week peopl e got started around 11; by 12:30 the place had 50 people. The party goe s until 4 every week, but around 3am they close the upstairs and use the s eparate floor gate entrance accessible from the front sidewalk. They dont let anyone in after 3:30am so don’t get there late. This week is a 100% Jeff benefit until I raise $400, then back to 50% Luis benefit. Goa Tra sh is looking for 1-2 top name DJs to play in late June/early July. Must have some sort of following that will stay up late on a weeknight.

In Europe and the Middle East, there are plants which cont ain harmaline and d: Syrian Rue and the Giant River Reed. Although ther e is currently no direct evidence it is possible that these were combined to potentiate the d. Syrian Rue itself is quite interesting. Seeds of Syr ian Rue are made into a red dye which is used by middle eastern carpet wea vers for coloring Persian Rugs. It has been said that the hallucinogenic p roperties of a brew made from these seeds may be responsible for the legen ds about flying carpets. Perhaps the red dye doubled as a beverage, and th e patterns on the carpets were actually maps into a magical world. These s eeds also contain Harmaline. The Giant River Reed is significant as well; i t’s considered the best reed to use for musical instruments, and is the re ed traditionally used in the construction of Pan Pipes. And its roots cont ain d. Berserk The word “berserk” comes from the Norse word for bear skin worn by some Viking warriors in ritual fits of rage and frenzy owing to their consumption of the hallucinogenic mushroom Fly Agaric. They would p illage and rape vilages while under the psychomimetic influence of the dru g. This foaming-at-the-mouth Vikings were known as berzerkers. Red Bull The name of Red Bull, the popular energy beverage marketed as some kind of elixer that “gives you wings” is taken from a name for the Amanita mushroo m (Soma). In both Hindu and European lore, Fly Agaric is likened to a bul l, it’s skin is like the ‘hide of a bull’ and it breaks through the ground surface as a bull horns. And both Europeans and ancient Hindus refer to it as “Red Bull.” In Mandala IX 97.13 of the Rg Veda we find a reference to Soma as the “red bull.” If my memory serves me there are two bulls in red and white that make the shape of a mushroom cap on the Red Bull can.

The neighbors are warned, our neural synapses are at the ready. It’s going to be a most excel lent showcase for the boston trance people, I’m going to pull out all the stops to get as many New Yorkers as possible to fill the sizable space. Di scounts will be given to Bostonians who make it down. Also I’m trying to hook up a charter bus from Fung Wah so you can have a dj entertain you on the way down. Flyers will be up there in a couple of weeks, we also will ha ve a another command live performance from Jay Indigom (D-Space Studios/Al pha Channel/M-field). Lauryn, Dino and Binary are already confirmed, and hopefully Goldilocks and Ammon EP are down to be down. There will be plen ty of time for everyone to play, any djs from the new england area email d ino. And Bob the Ziatrance wizard is going to do tapestry art. If there a re any weird crazy Boston artists that we can wrap this event around, plea se notify me and/or Dino. Fire is out b/c we’re indoors but what i’d love would be for example some weird MIT cyborgs with their battlebots. or som ething. And maybe fluorescent blue blood. Dino (Changmian) Perhaps the mos t experienced and influential member of the Boston psy-trance community, D ean began holding successful weeklies and all night beach gatherings as ea rly as 1998. It was that year when he and long time friend Dave West found ed Changmian Productions; thus putting Boston on the national “trance-map” . After three years of successful trance weeklies, Changmian decided to sh ift gears in the fall of 2000 and dedicate itself to propagating only the psychedelic sound. A few months later, “Samsara,”Boston’s first ever all p sy-trance weekly, was started at a local bar in Cambridge. After Samsara ended, Dino joined forces with Dave Henshaw and Mathwin to launch Boston’s second all psy-trance weekly, “Anitya”. The storied two year history of this event made Boston synonymous with psy-trance. Over the years Dino has become known for his melodic and groovy full-on psy-trance sound. His sets usually don’t exceed 136 BPM, giving the music space to breathe, while al lowing the listener to hear and feel every nuance. Dino’s diversity has be come one of his finest attributes as a DJ. Whether it be full-on, progress ive, chill out, or atmospheric drum & bass; Dean’s passion for music knows no limits… Dave Henshaw (Changmian) A progressive and hard-trance DJ in his earlier years, Dave wasn’t introduced to the psychedelic sound until he spent 1998 living in Cape Town, South Africa. His first interactions wi th the sound were relatively indifferent and it wasn’t until his introduct ion to Dino in the fall fo 2000 that he was able to appreciate how beautif ul, malleable, and adaptive the psychedelic sound could be. It was albums like Atmos’s “Headcleaner,” Vibrasphere’s “Echo,” and XV Kilist’s self-tit led full-length that enamored Dave to no end. He immediately joined Changm ian Productions and began working at “Samsara.” After that weekly ended, h e teamed up with Dino and Mathwin to start “Anitya” – Boston’s storied two -year all-psy-trance weekly. To this day, (aside from writing long winded party reviews and babbling on the lists all the time) Dave continues to ref ine his musical tastes and DJ skills in order to show how “progressive” an d “psychedelic” music can unify, harmonize, and elevate parties to new hei ghts. Primarily into the “Scandinavian sound” from labels like Iboga, Digi tal Structures, and Interzone; Dave has been lucky enough to share the sta ge with many of the DJ’s and artists he respects the most. Expect a very g roovy, very danceable, and very ear-friendly set from Boston’s propagator of the progressive psychedelic sound. Lauryn (Sonic Beating) Lauryn’s hu mble beginnings date back to 1998 when she was single-handedly throwing pa rties and producing her own all-trance radio show while a student at Hamil ton College in upstate New York. A chance encounter with Ammon EP at Satel lite Records opened her door into the psychedelic world and Lauryn has sinc e, never looked back. Starting in the winter of 2002, Lauryn has played am azing sets at Boston’s prestiguious psy-weekly, “Anitya”, has served (and continues to serve) as a resident of Sonic Beating’s monthly “Psyforia”, a nd has played multiple one-offs from Maine to Providence to New York and N ew Jersey. Still involved in a weekly radio show out of Tufts University, Lauryn is consistently honing and fine-tuning the already impeccable DJ sk ills that have made her a Boston crowd-pleaser. Though best known for blow ing up dancefloors with her South African influenced dark funky full on so unds from the likes of Wizzy Noise, Altom, Rinkadink, and Damage, Lauryn h as also been exploring the gentler side of the psychedelic sound. Her lat est mix-CD, “Sub-Liminal” shows this, featuring tracks by Antix, Frogacult Bitmonx and others. Binary (Sonic Beating) Before anyone even heard the name “Binary” in Boston, the man behind that name was busy producing “Free Update,” an all-psy-trance radio program on a local college station. Afte r honing his skills in the isolated studio, Binary broke into the public e ye with two ear-popping sets at Boston’s long-standing psy-weekly, “Anitya .” From there, he never looked back. Though “Free Update” remains a fixtur e in Boston radio, Binary has branched out into a highly skilled and versa tile DJ (joined Anitya’s residency in September 2003,) a crafty and intell igent sound engineer, and the founder of his own production company – “Soni c Beating Productions.” Currently serving as the resident of his monthly brainchild, “Psyforia;” Binary has played to packed dancefloors all over th e Eastern United States – most notably at last year’s Omni-Dance, where he delivered a full-on set that tossed and crushed the outdoor audience. Th ough his versatility and musical library have grown exponentially over the course of the last few years, Binary is most known for his powerful, inte nse, and at times overwhelming full-on trance. When Binary gets behind the system, you know you’re in for a good set. PLUS: Ammon EP & Goldilocks L ive Morning set by Jay Indigom (D-Space Studios/Alpha Channel/M-field) Jay is back Alpha Channel/M-field 100% LIVE (the whole thing!) (Soular Record s, CT) Fresh from a widely lauded performance at the Heaven & Earth Cen ter in February and d’s Full Moon celebration at SETTIng in May, J will project up tempo trance from “Alpha Channel” (J’s solo project-2003) and t he newly formed “M-field” project (J and Rob’s collaboration material-2004 ) followed by an hour of down-tempo chillout music accompanied by live aco ustic and electronic instruments. So unhinge your mind and body to two hou rs of a trance journey that takes you from the metamagic of up-tempo night music which will meld semi-transparently into progressive-styled morning trance as the sun rises to finally leave you floating freely upon the wave s of a premier chillout performance. Studio 55 (i.e. home of Cata, Evan, R affi, Zhenya and Kenya) has been renovated repainted and refurnished and m ay heretofore be referred to as “S.E.T.T.ING”. The gathering on friday is intended to be a reaction to the full moon, a congregation of deemsters, a chance to hear psy trance on a top notch sound system, and, very specif ically, to cooperatively create a safe, clean and sacred environment, so t hat future avenues for love and entheospace may present themselves to us. Please remember that the S.E.T.T.ING is a home for 5 people, so we implor e you to help us keep it a clean home: please dispose butts in ashtrays, r espect people’s personal belongings and artwork, respect women and childre n, respect and beware of the fact that ds and alcohol have the power to severely fuck you up and turn you into a babbling morron with rude behavio r. Extra ways to help create the S.E.T.T.ING include bringing art, deco, party supplies, fluoro-materials, food drink, plants or flowers. -Augus t 11th – Wednesday – GoaTrash2.0 Downstairs at Karma, 51 1st Ave b/w 3rd & 4th 10pm-4am, free, ID 21+ /goatrash2.gif web brain machines/goatrash2back.gif -Aug 13th, 2004 Ecliptic-Trance confirmed a t Club Exit Brooklyn Ecliptic-Trance Presents: Chapter IV – The Doors Of P erception- 08.13.2004 at “Club Exit” Brooklyn, NYC.

I always thought that some people can be helped, saved, whatever, I gave him so many chances. I even made him a web site when he was drunk at my house /yac In retrospect, i should have followed the three strikes you’re out rule. He had been weekly fucking me up somehow, I cut him off a month ago. he had been bragging about how he had invested a lot of time and energy into the trance market, and he threatened new people, new djs because he said he had “seniority.” One weekend I got three! complaints from women that he was grabbing them, making them feel uncomfortable. He fried half the d SOund System when he did a Pine Barrens party. He lied to my roomate and others and held an afterparty with at least 20 people at my house – while I was gone. The last open air party he grabbed my underwear while I was DJing. We got in a scuffle, he tried to break my finger. So many bad things have happened with people when they drink, not that that is any excuse – hello MALCOLM – but Yacc was rarely drunk. Yac is incorrigible, incongruous with us. The laundry list of bad things he has done would take pages. Let’s move on… but never forget. Because one day he will be out again, trying to get back in. Don’t do it. ] Hi, everyone. This is Valerie, and until about 5 o’clock in the morning on Saturday the 20th of June I was Yac’s girlfriend. We lived together for 2 years. On Saturday, at the loft, he got trashed and accused me of embarasing him in front of someone. He hustled me into the doorway, pushed me up against the wall, and started scratching, choking, and biting me. He bit me so hard that the place where he bit me is now swollen and black and blue. When people came down the stairs and tried to calm him down, he pulled a knife on someone. I slipped out and took the subway home. When I got home, he was already there. When I made it clear that I didn’t want him there anymore, he started beating me and punching me in the face. When I tried to call the police, he pulled out the phone wire. While he was in the other room I had to go over the fire escape to the street to call the police. When the police arrived, he first refused to open the door, then got out the same way I did (over the fire escape), and ran. I have two black eyes, a swollen jaw, scratches all over my face and chest, and fingerprint bruises on my upper arms and on my neck. Yac, although he has exhibited violent behavior before, miraculously has never been arrested for a violent crime. {ed. note – the first time the violence was against me. He’s been arrested, and since he is currently on probation, I don’t think they will let him out any time soon. I am writing this e-mail in case he does get out. First of all, I’m afraid of him and worried about what he might do to me, so I want everyone to know that if anything happens to me, he’s to blame. Second of all, I want everyone in the Trance community, especially the girls, to know this about him. I’m just sorry I can’t tell everyone in the world. Thank you, everyone, for your attention.

Evan’s Funtheo genic Facts Piss Drunk When you here a Brit describe being drunk as being ” pissed” or even Americans when we say “piss drunk” you are here hearing a very interesting etymological link. The expression comes from the use of Amanita Fungi in which the active chemicals remain intact though expel led urine which is frequently drunken to aquire the d’s effects. The O ldest Entheogen The earliest evidence of brewing is beer residue found insi de Sumerian pottery from 3500 – 3100 BCE. These are the same dates for th e developement of the first written language, cuneiform, by the Sumerians. The oldest known recipe, a recipe for beer, appears on a cuneiform tablet in an epic poem to Ninkasi, the Sumerian goddes of beer. Alchohol is know n for being a favorite inebriant among writers and poets, perhaps it is po ssible that we owe the advent of written language itself to the world’s fi rst drunks.

It’s going to be a most excellent showcase for the Boston trance people, I’m going to pull out al l the stops to get as many New Yorkers as possible to fill the sizable spa ce. Discounts will be given to Bostonians who make it down. Also I’m tryi ng to hook up a charter bus from Fung Wah so you can have a dj entertain y ou on the way down. Flyers will be up there in a couple of weeks, we also w ill have a another command live performance from Jay Indigom (D-Space Stud ios/Alpha Channel/M-field). Lauryn, Dino and Binary are already confirmed and hopefully Goldilocks and Ammon EP are down to be down. There will b e plenty of time for everyone to play, any djs from the new england area e mail dino. And Bob the Ziatrance wizard is going to do tapestry art. If t here are any weird crazy Boston artists that we can wrap this event around please notify me and/or Dino. Fire is out b/c we’re indoors but what i’d love would be for example some weird MIT cyborgs with their battlebots. o r somthing. And maybe fluorescent blue blood. Dino (Changmian) Perhaps t he most experienced and influential member of the Boston psy-trance commun ity, Dean began holding successful weeklies and all night beach gatherings as early as 1998. It was that year when he and long time friend Dave West founded Changmian Productions; thus putting Boston on the national “tranc e-map”. After three years of successful trance weeklies, Changmian decided to shift gears in the fall of 2000 and dedicate itself to propagating onl y the psychedelic sound. A few months later, “Samsara,”Boston’s first ever all psy-trance weekly, was started at a local bar in Cambridge. After Sa msara ended, Dino joined forces with Dave Henshaw and Mathwin to launch Bo ston’s second all psy-trance weekly, “Anitya”. The storied two year histor y of this event made Boston synonymous with psy-trance. Over the years Din o has become known for his melodic and groovy full-on psy-trance sound. Hi s sets usually don’t exceed 136 BPM, giving the music space to breathe, wh ile allowing the listener to hear and feel every nuance. Dino’s diversity has become one of his finest attributes as a DJ. Whether it be full-on, pr ogressive, chill out, or atmospheric drum & bass; Dean’s passion for music knows no limits… Dave Henshaw (Changmian) A progressive and hard-trance DJ in his earlier years, Dave wasn’t introduced to the psychedelic sound until he spent 1998 living in Cape Town, South Africa. His first interacti ons with the sound were relatively indifferent and it wasn’t until his int roduction to Dino in the fall fo 2000 that he was able to appreciate how b eautiful, malleable, and adaptive the psychedelic sound could be. It was a lbums like Atmos’s “Headcleaner,” Vibrasphere’s “Echo,” and XV Kilist’s se lf-titled full-length that enamored Dave to no end. He immediately joined Changmian Productions and began working at “Samsara.” After that weekly en ded, he teamed up with Dino and Mathwin to start “Anitya” – Boston’s storie d two-year all-psy-trance weekly. To this day, (aside from writing long wi nded party reviews and babbling on the lists all the time) Dave continues to refine his musical tastes and DJ skills in order to show how “progressi ve” and “psychedelic” music can unify, harmonize, and elevate parties to n ew heights. Primarily into the “Scandinavian sound” from labels like Iboga Digital Structures, and Interzone; Dave has been lucky enough to share t he stage with many of the DJ’s and artists he respects the most. Expect a very groovy, very danceable, and very ear-friendly set from Boston’s propa gator of the progressive psychedelic sound. Lauryn (Sonic Beating) Laury n’s humble beginnings date back to 1998 when she was single-handedly throw ing parties and producing her own all-trance radio show while a student at Hamilton College in upstate New York. A chance encounter with Ammon EP at Satellite Records opened her door into the psychedelic world and Lauryn ha s since, never looked back. Starting in the winter of 2002, Lauryn has pla yed amazing sets at Boston’s prestiguious psy-weekly, “Anitya”, has served (and continues to serve) as a resident of Sonic Beating’s monthly “Psyfor ia”, and has played multiple one-offs from Maine to Providence to New York and New Jersey. Still involved in a weekly radio show out of Tufts Univer sity, Lauryn is consistently honing and fine-tuning the already impeccable DJ skills that have made her a Boston crowd-pleaser. Though best known fo r blowing up dancefloors with her South African influenced dark funky full on sounds from the likes of Wizzy Noise, Altom, Rinkadink, and Damage, La uryn has also been exploring the gentler side of the psychedelic sound. H er latest mix-CD, “Sub-Liminal” shows this, featuring tracks by Antix, Fro gacult, Bitmonx and others. Binary (Sonic Beating) Before anyone even hear d the name “Binary” in Boston, the man behind that name was busy producing “Free Update,” an all-psy-trance radio program on a local college station . After honing his skills in the isolated studio, Binary broke into the pu blic eye with two ear-popping sets at Boston’s long-standing psy-weekly, ” Anitya.” From there, he never looked back. Though “Free Update” remains a fixture in Boston radio, Binary has branched out into a highly skilled and versatile DJ (joined Anitya’s residency in September 2003,) a crafty and intelligent sound engineer, and the founder of his own production company – “Sonic Beating Productions.” Currently serving as the resident of his mon thly brainchild, “Psyforia;” Binary has played to packed dancefloors all o ver the Eastern United States – most notably at last year’s Omni-Dance, wh ere he delivered a full-on set that tossed and crushed the outdoor audienc e. Though his versatility and musical library have grown exponentially ov er the course of the last few years, Binary is most known for his powerful intense, and at times overwhelming full-on trance. When Binary gets behi nd the system, you know you’re in for a good set. PLUS: Ammon EP & Goldil ocks Live Morning set by Jay Indigom (D-Space Studios/Alpha Channel/M-field ) Jay is back Alpha Channel/M-field 100% LIVE (the whole thing!) (Soular Records, CT) Fresh from a widely lauded performance at the Heaven & Ear th Center in February and d’s Full Moon celebration at SETTIng in May, J will project up tempo trance from “Alpha Channel” (J’s solo project-2003) and the newly formed “M-field” project (J and Rob’s collaboration materia l-2004) followed by an hour of down-tempo chillout music accompanied by li ve acoustic and electronic instruments. So unhinge your mind and body to t wo hours of a trance journey that takes you from the metamagic of up-tempo night music which will meld semi-transparently into progressive-styled mo rning trance as the sun rises to finally leave you floating freely upon th e waves of a premier chillout performance. Studio 55 (i.e. home of Cata, E van, Raffi, Zhenya and Kenya) has been renovated repainted and refurnished and may heretofore be referred to as “S.E.T.T.ING”. The gathering on frid ay is intended to be a reaction to the full moon, a congregation of deem sters, a chance to hear psy trance on a top notch sound system, and, very specifically, to cooperatively create a safe, clean and sacred environment so that future avenues for love and entheospace may present themselves t o us.

The neighbors are war ned, our neural synapses are at the ready. It’s going to be a most excellen t showcase for the Boston trance people, I’m going to pull out all the sto ps to get as many New Yorkers as possible to fill the sizable space. Disco unts will be given to Bostonians who make it down. Also I’m trying to hoo k up a charter bus from Fung Wah so you can have a dj entertain you on the way down. Flyers will be up there in a couple of weeks, we also will have a another command live performance from Jay Indigom (D-Space Studios/Alpha Channel/M-field). Lauryn, Dino and Binary are already confirmed, and hop efully Goldilocks and Ammon EP are down to be down. There will be plenty of time for everyone to play, any djs from the new england area email dino . And Bob the Ziatrance wizard is going to do tapestry art. If there are any weird crazy Boston artists that we can wrap this event around, please notify me and/or Dino. Fire is out b/c we’re indoors but what i’d love wo uld be for example some weird MIT cyborgs with their battlebots. or somth ing. And maybe fluorescent blue blood. Dino (Changmian) Perhaps the most e xperienced and influential member of the Boston psy-trance community, Dean began holding successful weeklies and all night beach gatherings as early as 1998. It was that year when he and long time friend Dave West founded Changmian Productions; thus putting Boston on the national “trance-map”. After three years of successful trance weeklies, Changmian decided to shift gears in the fall of 2000 and dedicate itself to propagating only the ps ychedelic sound. A few months later, “Samsara,”Boston’s first ever all psy- trance weekly, was started at a local bar in Cambridge. After Samsara end ed, Dino joined forces with Dave Henshaw and Mathwin to launch Boston’s se cond all psy-trance weekly, “Anitya”. The storied two year history of thi s event made Boston synonymous with psy-trance. Over the years Dino has be come known for his melodic and groovy full-on psy-trance sound. His sets us ually don’t exceed 136 BPM, giving the music space to breathe, while allow ing the listener to hear and feel every nuance. Dino’s diversity has becom e one of his finest attributes as a DJ. Whether it be full-on, progressive chill out, or atmospheric drum & bass; Dean’s passion for music knows no limits… Dave Henshaw (Changmian) A progressive and hard-trance DJ in hi s earlier years, Dave wasn’t introduced to the psychedelic sound until he spent 1998 living in Cape Town, South Africa. His first interactions with the sound were relatively indifferent and it wasn’t until his introduction to Dino in the fall fo 2000 that he was able to appreciate how beautiful, malleable, and adaptive the psychedelic sound could be. It was albums lik e Atmos’s “Headcleaner,” Vibrasphere’s “Echo,” and XV Kilist’s self-titled full-length that enamored Dave to no end. He immediately joined Changmian Productions and began working at “Samsara.” After that weekly ended, he t eamed up with Dino and Mathwin to start “Anitya” – Boston’s storied two-ye ar all-psy-trance weekly. To this day, (aside from writing long winded par ty reviews and babbling on the lists all the time) Dave continues to refine his musical tastes and DJ skills in order to show how “progressive” and “psychedelic” music can unify, harmonize, and elevate parties to new height s. Primarily into the “Scandinavian sound” from labels like Iboga, Digital Structures, and Interzone; Dave has been lucky enough to share the stage with many of the DJ’s and artists he respects the most. Expect a very groo vy, very danceable, and very ear-friendly set from Boston’s propagator of the progressive psychedelic sound. Lauryn (Sonic Beating) Lauryn’s humbl e beginnings date back to 1998 when she was single-handedly throwing parti es and producing her own all-trance radio show while a student at Hamilton College in upstate New York. A chance encounter with Ammon EP at Satellit e Records opened her door into the psychedelic world and Lauryn has since, never looked back. Starting in the winter of 2002, Lauryn has played amazi ng sets at Boston’s prestiguious psy-weekly, “Anitya”, has served (and con tinues to serve) as a resident of Sonic Beating’s monthly “Psyforia”, and has played multiple one-offs from Maine to Providence to New York and New Jersey. Still involved in a weekly radio show out of Tufts University, Lau ryn is consistently honing and fine-tuning the already impeccable DJ skill s that have made her a Boston crowd-pleaser. Though best known for blowing up dancefloors with her South African influenced dark funky full on sound s from the likes of Wizzy Noise, Altom, Rinkadink, and Damage, Lauryn has also been exploring the gentler side of the psychedelic sound. Her latest mix-CD, “Sub-Liminal” shows this, featuring tracks by Antix, Frogacult, B itmonx and others. Binary (Sonic Beating) Before anyone even heard the nam e “Binary” in Boston, the man behind that name was busy producing “Free Up date,” an all-psy-trance radio program on a local college station. After h oning his skills in the isolated studio, Binary broke into the public eye with two ear-popping sets at Boston’s long-standing psy-weekly, “Anitya.” From there, he never looked back. Though “Free Update” remains a fixture i n Boston radio, Binary has branched out into a highly skilled and versatil e DJ (joined Anitya’s residency in September 2003,) a crafty and intellige nt sound engineer, and the founder of his own production company – “Sonic Beating Productions.” Currently serving as the resident of his monthly bra inchild, “Psyforia;” Binary has played to packed dancefloors all over the E astern United States – most notably at last year’s Omni-Dance, where he de livered a full-on set that tossed and crushed the outdoor audience. Thoug h his versatility and musical library have grown exponentially over the co urse of the last few years, Binary is most known for his powerful, intense and at times overwhelming full-on trance. When Binary gets behind the sy stem, you know you’re in for a good set. PLUS: Ammon EP & Goldilocks Live Morning set by Jay Indigom (D-Space Studios/Alpha Channel/M-field) Jay i s back Alpha Channel/M-field 100% LIVE (the whole thing!) (Soular Records, CT) Fresh from a widely lauded performance at the Heaven & Earth Center in February and d’s Full Moon celebration at SETTIng in May, J will pro ject up tempo trance from “Alpha Channel” (J’s solo project-2003) and the newly formed “M-field” project (J and Rob’s collaboration material-2004) f ollowed by an hour of down-tempo chillout music accompanied by live acoust ic and electronic instruments. So unhinge your mind and body to two hours of a trance journey that takes you from the metamagic of up-tempo night mu sic which will meld semi-transparently into progressive-styled morning tra nce as the sun rises to finally leave you floating freely upon the waves o f a premier chillout performance. Studio 55 (i.e. home of Cata, Evan, Raff i, Zhenya and Kenya) has been renovated repainted and refurnished and may heretofore be referred to as “S.E.T.T.ING”. The gathering on friday is int ended to be a reaction to the full moon, a congregation of deemsters, a chance to hear psy trance on a top notch sound system, and, very specifica lly, to cooperatively create a safe, clean and sacred environment, so that future avenues for love and entheospace may present themselves to us. Pl ease remember that the S.E.T.T.ING is a home for 5 people, so we implore y ou to help us keep it a clean home: please dispose butts in ashtrays, resp ect people’s personal belongings and artwork, respect women and children, respect and beware of the fact that ds and alcohol have the power to se verely fuck you up and turn you into a babbling morron with rude behavior. Extra ways to help create the S.E.T.T.ING include bringing art, deco, par ty supplies, fluoro-materials, food drink, plants or flowers. -August 1 1th – Wednesday – GoaTrash2.0 Downstairs at Karma, 51 1st Ave b/w 3rd & 4th 10pm-4am, free, ID 21+ /goatrash2.gif web brainmac hines/goatrash2back.gif -Aug 13th, 2004 Ecliptic-Trance confirmed at C lub Exit Brooklyn Ecliptic-Trance Presents: Chapter IV – The Doors Of Perc eption- 08.13.2004 at “Club Exit” Brooklyn, NYC.

The expression comes from the use of A manita Fungi in which the active chemicals remain intact though expelle d urine which is frequently drunken to aquire the d’s effects. DI V The Oldest Entheogen The earliest evidence of brewing is beer residue found inside Sumerian pottery from 3500 – 3100 BCE. These are the same dates for the developement of the first written language, cuneiform, by the Sumerians. Th e oldest known recipe, a recipe for beer, appears on a cuneiform tablet in an epic poem to Ninkasi, the Sumerian goddes of beer. Alchohol is know n for being a favorite inebriant among writers and poets, perhaps it i s possible that we owe the advent of written language itself to t he world’s first drunks. STR ONGBelladonna Atropa Belladonna aka Deadly Nightshade, known throughout ages for its hallucinogenic and sometimes deadly eff ects, is currently used by optometrists as eye drops which enlarge the pupil. This effect was known in Italy hundreds of yeras ago and was used by women there so their eyes may appear big and thus attractive. small amounts of Belladonna was eaten to make the cheeks rosy too.

#3400 Fri, 2 Jul 2004 00:17:44 Fri, 2 Jul 2004 00:17:44 From: A small victory against thugs Trevor/Troll was arrested at 9:50pm tonight in Union Square I just got back from the 9th precinct. Gilmore Trevor AKA Troll was the thug who sucker punched me at the MLK party in January after being confronted for stealing. I am pressing charges for assault and getting an order of protection (200 feet) tomorrow morning. It’s kind of nice with two cretins (Yac and Troll – with names like those…) on the Shitlist in jail, and Saddam too. Three’s a charm. My shoulder is still damaged six months later. I can’t reach around all the way around my back, and that’s my punching arm. I really was gonna let this go but when I confronted him about it at the Marijuana Rally two months ago he blew a kiss at me and said he did it because he “felt like it” and was trying to break my arm, and wants to finish the job. We’ll see. original story “groups.yahoo/group/SafetyDance/message/1340groups.yahoo/group/SafetyDance/message/1340 party flyer web tranceam.org/mlk.gif web tranceam.org/mlk.gif …and the aftermath web tranceam.org/goatrashimage009.gifweb tranceam.org/goatrashimage009.gif /shitlist i forgot, in addition to YAC and TROLL in jail, there’s also a RUDY (the guy who graffed”Fuck You” my apt. bldg) . So theoretically in a jail somewhere there are 3 dudes names YAC. TROLL, and RUDY. What a rogue’s gallery. Maybe they will be joined by BARF, GOBLIN, and ASSHOLE and they wll get a spoon in their mouths, get killed by a Level 7 Paladin, and wiped, respectively. Or maybe they will just rape each other. What a bad mental visual…

Fire is out b/c we’re indoors but wha t i’d love would be for example some weird MIT cyborgs with their battlebo ts. or somthing. And maybe fluorescent blue blood. Dino (Changmian) Perh aps the most experienced and influential member of the Boston psy-trance c ommunity, Dean began holding successful weeklies and all night beach gathe rings as early as 1998. It was that year when he and long time friend Dave West founded Changmian Productions; thus putting Boston on the national ” trance-map”. After three years of successful trance weeklies, Changmian de cided to shift gears in the fall of 2000 and dedicate itself to propagatin g only the psychedelic sound. A few months later, “Samsara,”Boston’s first ever all psy-trance weekly, was started at a local bar in Cambridge. Afte r Samsara ended, Dino joined forces with Dave Henshaw and Mathwin to launc h Boston’s second all psy-trance weekly, “Anitya”. The storied two year h istory of this event made Boston synonymous with psy-trance. Over the year s Dino has become known for his melodic and groovy full-on psy-trance soun d. His sets usually don’t exceed 136 BPM, giving the music space to breath e, while allowing the listener to hear and feel every nuance. Dino’s diver sity has become one of his finest attributes as a DJ. Whether it be full-o n, progressive, chill out, or atmospheric drum & bass; Dean’s passion for music knows no limits… Dave Henshaw (Changmian) A progressive and hard-t rance DJ in his earlier years, Dave wasn’t introduced to the psychedelic s ound until he spent 1998 living in Cape Town, South Africa. His first inte ractions with the sound were relatively indifferent and it wasn’t until hi s introduction to Dino in the fall fo 2000 that he was able to appreciate how beautiful, malleable, and adaptive the psychedelic sound could be. It was albums like Atmos’s “Headcleaner,” Vibrasphere’s “Echo,” and XV Kilist ‘s self-titled full-length that enamored Dave to no end. He immediately jo ined Changmian Productions and began working at “Samsara.” After that weekl y ended, he teamed up with Dino and Mathwin to start “Anitya” – Boston’s s toried two-year all-psy-trance weekly. To this day, (aside from writing lo ng winded party reviews and babbling on the lists all the time) Dave conti nues to refine his musical tastes and DJ skills in order to show how “prog ressive” and “psychedelic” music can unify, harmonize, and elevate parties to new heights. Primarily into the “Scandinavian sound” from labels like Iboga, Digital Structures, and Interzone; Dave has been lucky enough to sh are the stage with many of the DJ’s and artists he respects the most. Expe ct a very groovy, very danceable, and very ear-friendly set from Boston’s propagator of the progressive psychedelic sound. Lauryn (Sonic Beating) Lauryn’s humble beginnings date back to 1998 when she was single-handedly throwing parties and producing her own all-trance radio show while a studen t at Hamilton College in upstate New York. A chance encounter with Ammon E P at Satellite Records opened her door into the psychedelic world and Laur yn has since, never looked back. Starting in the winter of 2002, Lauryn ha s played amazing sets at Boston’s prestiguious psy-weekly, “Anitya”, has s erved (and continues to serve) as a resident of Sonic Beating’s monthly “P syforia”, and has played multiple one-offs from Maine to Providence to New York and New Jersey. Still involved in a weekly radio show out of Tufts U niversity, Lauryn is consistently honing and fine-tuning the already impec cable DJ skills that have made her a Boston crowd-pleaser. Though best kno wn for blowing up dancefloors with her South African influenced dark funky full on sounds from the likes of Wizzy Noise, Altom, Rinkadink, and Damag e, Lauryn has also been exploring the gentler side of the psychedelic soun d. Her latest mix-CD, “Sub-Liminal” shows this, featuring tracks by Antix Frogacult, Bitmonx and others. Binary (Sonic Beating) Before anyone even heard the name “Binary” in Boston, the man behind that name was busy prod ucing “Free Update,” an all-psy-trance radio program on a local college st ation. After honing his skills in the isolated studio, Binary broke into t he public eye with two ear-popping sets at Boston’s long-standing psy-week ly, “Anitya.” From there, he never looked back. Though “Free Update” remai ns a fixture in Boston radio, Binary has branched out into a highly skilled and versatile DJ (joined Anitya’s residency in September 2003,) a crafty and intelligent sound engineer, and the founder of his own production comp any – “Sonic Beating Productions.” Currently serving as the resident of hi s monthly brainchild, “Psyforia;” Binary has played to packed dancefloors all over the Eastern United States – most notably at last year’s Omni-Danc e, where he delivered a full-on set that tossed and crushed the outdoor au dience. Though his versatility and musical library have grown exponential ly over the course of the last few years, Binary is most known for his pow erful, intense, and at times overwhelming full-on trance. When Binary gets behind the system, you know you’re in for a good set. PLUS: Goldilocks T BA Live Morning set by Jay Indigom (D-Space Studios/Alpha Channel/M-field) Jay is back Alpha Channel/M-field 100% LIVE (the whole thing!) (Soular Re cords, CT) Fresh from a widely lauded performance at the Heaven & Earth Center in February and d’s Full Moon celebration at SETTIng in May, J w ill project up tempo trance from “Alpha Channel” (J’s solo project-2003) a nd the newly formed “M-field” project (J and Rob’s collaboration material- 2004) followed by an hour of down-tempo chillout music accompanied by live acoustic and electronic instruments. So unhinge your mind and body to two hours of a trance journey that takes you from the metamagic of up-tempo n ight music which will meld semi-transparently into progressive-styled morn ing trance as the sun rises to finally leave you floating freely upon the waves of a premier chillout performance. Studio 55 (i.e. home of Cata, Eva n, Raffi, Zhenya and Kenya) has been renovated repainted and refurnished a nd may heretofore be referred to as “S.E.T.T.ING”. The gathering on friday is intended to be a reaction to the full moon, a congregation of deemst ers, a chance to hear psy trance on a top notch sound system, and, very sp ecifically, to cooperatively create a safe, clean and sacred environment, so that future avenues for love and entheospace may present themselves to us. Please remember that the S.E.T.T.ING is a home for 5 people, so we im plore you to help us keep it a clean home: please dispose butts in ashtray s, respect people’s personal belongings and artwork, respect women and chi ldren, respect and beware of the fact that ds and alcohol have the power to severely fuck you up and turn you into a babbling morron with rude beh avior. Extra ways to help create the S.E.T.T.ING include bringing art, de co, party supplies, fluoro-materials, food drink, plants or flowers. -A ugust 11th – Wednesday – GoaTrash2.0 Downstairs at Karma, 51 1st Ave b/w 3r d & 4th 10pm-4am, free, ID 21+ /goatrash2.gif web b rainmachines/goatrash2back.gif -Aug 13th, 2004 Ecliptic-Trance confirm ed at Club Exit Brooklyn Ecliptic-Trance Presents: Chapter IV – The Doors Of Perception- 08.13.2004 at “Club Exit” Brooklyn, NYC.

Right, that is, if you like your Trance tracks like a tidal wave, like a werewolfs howl, like a sandblaster busting open your third eye. As he c omes across quiet and somewhat reserved in person, one would not, at first realize that Kri is on a mission, a serious quest to bring Psychedelic T rance music to the people, and to bring the people to a state of enlighten ment in the process. Caught up in the party scene of the 90s and gaining a reputation for his skills in mixing breakbeat and scratching, Kri left it all behind to pursue full-time the haunting promise Goa trance laid out f or him. Now, he has single handedly created a devout Trance family in a ti ny, southern town that had previously never heard of any such thing, orche strating parties and gatherings whose emphasis is holistic, about the music and the magic, never getting lost in the hype or the egocentrism of the b usiness. Starting to build a body of his own compositions, edgy pieces dem anding the listener to recognize Trances primal roots, Kri is showing hims elf as an incredibly dedicated Goa Trance musician and dj. More and more, his skills are being sought after in places all over the country, and I wi ll venture a reason why. To listen to Kri play is to remember our legacy a s spiritual beings with tumultuous desires, with an innate need to pound o ur feet into the Earth to raise our prayers to the heavens…on the dance floor that translates to his creating all-consuming, orgiastic rituals of dance where he pushes you past your limits to a place beyond a good party or a great time, but to a place where you can capture a glimpse of a futur e in which the primal and the technological fuse to bring us a passionate and fulfilling existence on a planet that survives. Heavy? Yeah, but so is the Psychedelic Goa Trance experience, and heavier still is a night fille d with Kris dark, driving tracks, his momentum slowly building like a pant hers body tensing each muscle till its time to strike its prey, and then, youre a goner. Kri first played in New York at an outdoor festival by the d and most recently in Jersey City for Omnitribe.

New Scientist vol 182 issue 2453 – 26 June 2004, page 42 A mind-altering substance used in shamanistic ritu als may hold clues to dreaming and a natural way of alleviating depression but could also trigger schizophrenic hallucinations. Lisa Melton investig ates IN THE brightly lit chapel, the ceremony is due to begin. Dennis McK enna lines up with 500 others to sip the sacrament. It takes 45 minutes be fore it hits him. Then, eyes closed, he finds himself hovering above the A mazon basin, aware of the massive forests and the meandering rivers beneat h. A giant vine winds up towards him and he hurtles down it, shrinking as he goes until the leaves themselves seem the size of trees. Shrinking furt her, he finds himself surrounded by a new forest made up of molecules enga ged in photosynthesis. McKenna, an ethnobotanist from the University of Mi nnesota in Minneapolis, is high on ayahuasca. Ayahuasca is not the latest party d but a foul-tasting plant concoction Amazonian people have been downing for centuries. It is the stuff of legends, credited with sending people on the most incredible trips. Today this bitter tea, also known as hoasca, has become the sacramental ritual of two modern religions in Brazi l; one of them, the Unio do Vegetal (UDV) church, has invited McKenna, an expert on psychoactive plants, and other research teams, to scrutinise thi s sacred brew. Their fascination with ayahuasca stems from a little-known mind-altering compound called dimthyltryptamine, or d, a substance the sacred tea contains by the bucketload. When it comes to psychedelic compou nds, d is in a league of its own, as the only hallucinogen our body prod uces naturally. Scientists have found d pretty much everywhere they’ve looked in animals, plants and fungi. But despite its ubiquity, d’s role remains a mystery. Some believe it fuels vivid dreams, mystical revelation s and religious exaltation, as well as playing a part in memory. The more sinister possibility is that over-producing d could tip a person over th e edge into insanity, inducing the psychotic symptoms of schizophrenia. Mc Kenna and his colleagues hope the tripping churchgoers could help them fin d the answers. d doesn’t hang around long enough for people to study it easily. It acts rapidly and is broken down swiftly by the enzyme monoamine oxidase (MAO). Normally if you eat or drink it, d doesn’t stand a chanc e of getting into the brain as MAO in the gut breaks it down. Cocktail ef fect Shamans, McKenna discovered, overcame this problem by carefully combi ning plants in the ayahuasca brew. One is the Psychotria viridis bush, whi ch is packed with d. The other is the vine Banisteriopsis caapi, which c ontains harmine, one of the most effective MAO inhibitors. By inactivating MAO with the vine bark, d can be absorbed from the gut and crosses the blood-brain barrier to trigger a psychedelic response. It turns out that harmine-like compounds are also ubiquitous in our bodies. This led some re searchers to suggest that maybe our bodies regulate the levels of d in t he same way as in the tea, sometimes boosting its activity by knocking out MAO so it can fulfil some sort of physiological role. Pharmacologist Jord i Riba from the University of Barcelona, Spain, has been trying to work ou t what that physiological role might be, using brain scans to study its ef fect on brain activity. His preliminary results are tantalising, showing a reas lighting up that are related to memory. Riba believes d may be invo lved in retrieving facts and experiences. “When you give people ayahuasca, they re-experience memories that are there already. It’s like pressing a random access button to your stored memories,” he says. Jace Callaway from the University of Kuopio in Finland has another idea. He suggests that en dogenous d and harmine-like substances may play a role in generating dre am imagery. “We experience psychedelic states on a regular basis while dre aming,” he says. But while its natural role is still uncertain, a more unn atural role is coming to the fore. The effects produced by psychedelic dru gs are strikingly similar to the symptoms of psychosis. In the 1950s, thes e similarities led to the suggestion that psychoactive compounds like d were the cause of schizophrenia. According to the theory, an enzymatic di sturbance in the body could lead to overproduction of hallucinogenic compo unds. And if MAO activity is low, as suspected in people with schizophreni a, the compounds would linger and the hallucinations they trigger seep int o everyday existence. But researchers had always failed to detect consiste nt differences in d levels between patients and controls. “I spent my yo uth collecting and analysing gallons of urine from people with schizophren ia,” recalls Robin Murray from the Institute of Psychiatry in London. “The endogenous d hypothesis of schizophrenia was never disproved but was ju st overtaken by the dopamine theory, which was more immediately plausible. ” But the theory is enjoying somthing of a comeback. Alicia Pomilio, an organic chemist, and Jorge Ciprian-Ollivier, a psychiatrist, at the Univer sity of Buenos Aires in Argentina realised that the church congregation me mbers could help them to look for the signature of d in the urine using gas chromatography and mass spectrometry. Once they knew what to look for, they were able to detect traces in the urine of patients with active schi zophrenia but not in controls. It is not clear whether people with schizop hrenia are producing too much d, or too little MAO the result would be t he same. But the discovery is exciting in that it paves the way to finding new ds to treat schizophrenia. But if d might be the cause of one me dical problem, it could be the cure for others. McKenna has found that d exerts its effect by attaching mainly to one particular type of serotonin uptake site called 5-HT2A, as do other psychedelic ds such as l, psi locybin and mescaline. Serotonin is a mood-altering neurotransmitter, also known to influence sleep, appetite, aggression and love. The newest class of antidepressant ds, including Prozac, are thought to work by blockin g the uptake of serotonin into nerve cells. Callaway’s recent studies sugg est that ayahuasca might have some of the effects of antidepressant ds nature’s very own Prozac. He measured serotonin levels in rats after givin g them ayahuasca and says the levels of the neurotransmitter “go through t he roof”. After drinking hoasca tea users report a feel-good effect that c an last for days. Callaway found that hoasca drinkers had a greater than n ormal density of serotonin uptake sites on their blood platelets, where th ey are easier to measure than in the brain. People seem to respond, he say s, by creating more receptors. When they are not getting a buzz from the t ea, the additional receptors hunger for more serotonin, pushing the body t o produce more. But does the brain bump up its number of serotonin uptake sites too? Using a brain imaging technique that labels serotonin receptors Callaway has now tested one person, and found signs of a similar upregul ation in a serotonin-rich region of the brain. Of course, this observation needs following up, but it’s an encouraging sign. “It’s a true tonic effe ct,” says Callaway. The sacred tea “apparently does what antidepressants f ail to do. It could lead to long-term plastic changes in the brain without having to pop a pill every day.” Charles Grob, a psychiatrist at the Uni versity of California, Los Angeles, School of Medicine, reckons that this sustained effect on mood makes ayahuasca a good candidate for treating add ictions as well as alleviating depression. People with serious alcohol pro blems and mood disorders were transformed by the church. All religions boa st life-changing stories, but Grob believes the tea itself is important. T here is already one centre in Peru testing ayahuasca in clinical trials fo r d abuse. But the researchers are proceeding cautiously. Many people h ave been taking the hallucinogen within the supportive setting of the UDV for 30 years with seemingly no adverse side effects. But it is not always so. “If the tea is not properly prepared, or in the hands of an individual without the appropriate support, the consequences can be negative,” says Grob. Even in the highly controlled lab setting it can trigger twitching, vomiting and diarrhoea. Useful if you are an Amazonian hunter wanting to r id your gut of parasites, perhaps, but not exactly convenient if you are w earing your best party gear.

The neighb ors are warned, our neural synapses are at the ready. It’s going to be a mo st excellent showcase for the Boston trance people, I’m going to pull out all the stops to get as many New Yorkers as possible to fill the sizable s pace. Discounts will be given to Bostonians who make it down. Also I’m tr ying to hook up a charter bus from Fung Wah so you can have a dj entertain you on the way down. Flyers will be up there in a couple of weeks, we also will have a another command live performance from Jay Indigom (D-Space St udios/Alpha Channel/M-field). Lauryn, Dino and Binary are already confirm ed, and hopefully Goldilocks and Ammon EP are down to be down. There will be plenty of time for everyone to play, any djs from the new england area email dino. And Bob the Ziatrance wizard is going to do tapestry art. If there are any weird crazy Boston artists that we can wrap this event arou nd, please notify me and/or Dino. Fire is out b/c we’re indoors but what i ‘d love would be for example some weird MIT cyborgs with their battlebots. or somthing. And maybe fluorescent blue blood. Dino (Changmian) Perhaps the most experienced and influential member of the Boston psy-trance comm unity, Dean began holding successful weeklies and all night beach gatherin gs as early as 1998. It was that year when he and long time friend Dave Wes t founded Changmian Productions; thus putting Boston on the national “tra nce-map”. After three years of successful trance weeklies, Changmian decid ed to shift gears in the fall of 2000 and dedicate itself to propagating o nly the psychedelic sound. A few months later, “Samsara,”Boston’s first ev er all psy-trance weekly, was started at a local bar in Cambridge. After Samsara ended, Dino joined forces with Dave Henshaw and Mathwin to launch Boston’s second all psy-trance weekly, “Anitya”. The storied two year hist ory of this event made Boston synonymous with psy-trance. Over the years D ino has become known for his melodic and groovy full-on psy-trance sound. His sets usually don’t exceed 136 BPM, giving the music space to breathe, while allowing the listener to hear and feel every nuance. Dino’s diversit y has become one of his finest attributes as a DJ. Whether it be full-on, progressive, chill out, or atmospheric drum & bass; Dean’s passion for mus ic knows no limits… Dave Henshaw (Changmian) A progressive and hard-tranDJ in his earlier years, Dave wasn’t introduced to the psychedelic soun d until he spent 1998 living in Cape Town, South Africa. His first interac tions with the sound were relatively indifferent and it wasn’t until his i ntroduction to Dino in the fall fo 2000 that he was able to appreciate how beautiful, malleable, and adaptive the psychedelic sound could be. It was albums like Atmos’s “Headcleaner,” Vibrasphere’s “Echo,” and XV Kilist’s self-titled full-length that enamored Dave to no end. He immediately joine d Changmian Productions and began working at “Samsara.” After that weekly ended, he teamed up with Dino and Mathwin to start “Anitya” – Boston’s stor ied two-year all-psy-trance weekly. To this day, (aside from writing long winded party reviews and babbling on the lists all the time) Dave continue s to refine his musical tastes and DJ skills in order to show how “progres sive” and “psychedelic” music can unify, harmonize, and elevate parties to new heights. Primarily into the “Scandinavian sound” from labels like Ibo ga, Digital Structures, and Interzone; Dave has been lucky enough to share the stage with many of the DJ’s and artists he respects the most. Expect a very groovy, very danceable, and very ear-friendly set from Boston’s pro pagator of the progressive psychedelic sound. Lauryn (Sonic Beating) Lau ryn’s humble beginnings date back to 1998 when she was single-handedly thr owing parties and producing her own all-trance radio show while a student a t Hamilton College in upstate New York. A chance encounter with Ammon EP a t Satellite Records opened her door into the psychedelic world and Lauryn has since, never looked back. Starting in the winter of 2002, Lauryn has p layed amazing sets at Boston’s prestiguious psy-weekly, “Anitya”, has serv ed (and continues to serve) as a resident of Sonic Beating’s monthly “Psyf oria”, and has played multiple one-offs from Maine to Providence to New Yo rk and New Jersey. Still involved in a weekly radio show out of Tufts Univ ersity, Lauryn is consistently honing and fine-tuning the already impeccab le DJ skills that have made her a Boston crowd-pleaser. Though best known for blowing up dancefloors with her South African influenced dark funky fu ll on sounds from the likes of Wizzy Noise, Altom, Rinkadink, and Damage, Lauryn has also been exploring the gentler side of the psychedelic sound. Her latest mix-CD, “Sub-Liminal” shows this, featuring tracks by Antix, F rogacult, Bitmonx and others. Binary (Sonic Beating) Before anyone even he ard the name “Binary” in Boston, the man behind that name was busy produci ng “Free Update,” an all-psy-trance radio program on a local college stati on. After honing his skills in the isolated studio, Binary broke into the public eye with two ear-popping sets at Boston’s long-standing psy-weekly, “Anitya.” From there, he never looked back. Though “Free Update” remains a fixture in Boston radio, Binary has branched out into a highly skilled an d versatile DJ (joined Anitya’s residency in September 2003,) a crafty and intelligent sound engineer, and the founder of his own production company – “Sonic Beating Productions.” Currently serving as the resident of his m onthly brainchild, “Psyforia;” Binary has played to packed dancefloors all over the Eastern United States – most notably at last year’s Omni-Dance, where he delivered a full-on set that tossed and crushed the outdoor audie nce. Though his versatility and musical library have grown exponentially over the course of the last few years, Binary is most known for his powerf ul, intense, and at times overwhelming full-on trance. When Binary gets be hind the system, you know you’re in for a good set. PLUS: Goldilocks TBA Live Morning set by Jay Indigom (D-Space Studios/Alpha Channel/M-field) Ja y is back Alpha Channel/M-field 100% LIVE (the whole thing!) (Soular Recor ds, CT) Fresh from a widely lauded performance at the Heaven & Earthnter in February and d’s Full Moon celebration at SETTIng in May, J will project up tempo trance from “Alpha Channel” (J’s solo project-2003) and the newly formed “M-field” project (J and Rob’s collaboration material-200 4) followed by an hour of down-tempo chillout music accompanied by live ac oustic and electronic instruments. So unhinge your mind and body to two ho urs of a trance journey that takes you from the metamagic of up-tempo nigh t music which will meld semi-transparently into progressive-styled morning trance as the sun rises to finally leave you floating freely upon the wav es of a premier chillout performance. Studio 55 (i.e. home of Cata, Evan, Raffi, Zhenya and Kenya) has been renovated repainted and refurnished and may heretofore be referred to as “S.E.T.T.ING”. The gathering on friday is intended to be a reaction to the full moon, a congregation of deemsters a chance to hear psy trance on a top notch sound system, and, very speci fically, to cooperatively create a safe, clean and sacred environment, so that future avenues for love and entheospace may present themselves to us. Please remember that the S.E.T.T.ING is a home for 5 people, so we implo re you to help us keep it a clean home: please dispose butts in ashtrays, respect people’s personal belongings and artwork, respect women and childr en, respect and beware of the fact that ds and alcohol have the power to severely fuck you up and turn you into a babbling morron with rude behavi or. Extra ways to help create the S.E.T.T.ING include bringing art, deco, party supplies, fluoro-materials, food drink, plants or flowers. -Augu st 11th – Wednesday – GoaTrash2.0 Downstairs at Karma, 51 1st Ave b/w 3rd & 4th 10pm-4am, free, ID 21+ /goatrash2.gif web brai nmachines/goatrash2back.gif -Aug 13th, 2004 Ecliptic-Trance confirmed at Club Exit Brooklyn Ecliptic-Trance Presents: Chapter IV – The Doors Of Perception- 08.13.2004 at “Club Exit” Brooklyn, NYC.

Right, that is, if you like your Trance tracks like a tidal wave, like a werewolfs howl, like a sandblaster busting open your third eye. As he come s across quiet and somewhat reserved in person, one would not, at first, r ealize that Kri is on a mission, a serious quest to bring Psychedelic Tranmusic to the people, and to bring the people to a state of enlightenmen t in the process. Caught up in the party scene of the 90s and gaining a re putation for his skills in mixing breakbeat and scratching, Kri left it al l behind to pursue full-time the haunting promise Goa trance laid out for him. Now, he has single handedly created a devout Trance family in a tiny, southern town that had previously never heard of any such thing, orchestr ating parties and gatherings whose emphasis is holistic, about the music an d the magic, never getting lost in the hype or the egocentrism of the busi ness. Starting to build a body of his own compositions, edgy pieces demand ing the listener to recognize Trances primal roots, Kri is showing himself as an incredibly dedicated Goa Trance musician and dj. More and more, his skills are being sought after in places all over the country, and I will venture a reason why. To listen to Kri play is to remember our legacy as s piritual beings with tumultuous desires, with an innate need to pound our feet into the Earth to raise our prayers to the heavens…on the dance flo or that translates to his creating all-consuming, orgiastic rituals of danwhere he pushes you past your limits to a place beyond a good party or a great time, but to a place where you can capture a glimpse of a future i n which the primal and the technological fuse to bring us a passionate and fulfilling existence on a planet that survives. Heavy? Yeah, but so is th e Psychedelic Goa Trance experience, and heavier still is a night filled w ith Kris dark, driving tracks, his momentum slowly building like a panther s body tensing each muscle till its time to strike its prey, and then, you re a goner. Kri first played in New York at an outdoor festival by the d and most recently in Jersey City for Omnitribe.

New Scientist vol 182 issue 2453 – 2 6 June 2004, page 42 A mind-altering substance used in shamanistic rituals may hold clues to dreaming and a natural way of alleviating depression bu t could also trigger schizophrenic hallucinations. Lisa Melton investigate s IN THE brightly lit chapel, the ceremony is due to begin. Dennis McKenn a lines up with 500 others to sip the sacrament. It takes 45 minutes befor e it hits him. Then, eyes closed, he finds himself hovering above the Amaz on basin, aware of the massive forests and the meandering rivers beneath. A giant vine winds up towards him and he hurtles down it, shrinking as he goes until the leaves themselves seem the size of trees. Shrinking further he finds himself surrounded by a new forest made up of molecules engaged in photosynthesis. McKenna, an ethnobotanist from the University of Minne sota in Minneapolis, is high on ayahuasca. Ayahuasca is not the latest pa rty d but a foul-tasting plant concoction Amazonian people have been do wning for centuries. It is the stuff of legends, credited with sending peo ple on the most incredible trips. Today this bitter tea, also known as hoa sca, has become the sacramental ritual of two modern religions in Brazil; one of them, the Unio do Vegetal (UDV) church, has invited McKenna, an exp ert on psychoactive plants, and other research teams, to scrutinise this s acred brew. Their fascination with ayahuasca stems from a little-known min d-altering compound called dimthyltryptamine, or d, a substance the sac red tea contains by the bucketload. When it comes to psychedelic compounds d is in a league of its own, as the only hallucinogen our body produce s naturally. Scientists have found d pretty much everywhere they’ve loo ked in animals, plants and fungi. But despite its ubiquity, d’s role rem ains a mystery. Some believe it fuels vivid dreams, mystical revelations a nd religious exaltation, as well as playing a part in memory. The more sin ister possibility is that over-producing d could tip a person over the e dge into insanity, inducing the psychotic symptoms of schizophrenia. McKen na and his colleagues hope the tripping churchgoers could help them find t he answers. d doesn’t hang around long enough for people to study it eas ily. It acts rapidly and is broken down swiftly by the enzyme monoamine ox idase (MAO). Normally if you eat or drink it, d doesn’t stand a chance o f getting into the brain as MAO in the gut breaks it down. Cocktail effec t Shamans, McKenna discovered, overcame this problem by carefully combinin g plants in the ayahuasca brew. One is the Psychotria viridis bush, which is packed with d. The other is the vine Banisteriopsis caapi, which cont ains harmine, one of the most effective MAO inhibitors. By inactivating MA O with the vine bark, d can be absorbed from the gut and crosses the blo od-brain barrier to trigger a psychedelic response. It turns out that har mine-like compounds are also ubiquitous in our bodies. This led some resea rchers to suggest that maybe our bodies regulate the levels of d in the same way as in the tea, sometimes boosting its activity by knocking out MA O so it can fulfil some sort of physiological role. Pharmacologist Jordi R iba from the University of Barcelona, Spain, has been trying to work out w hat that physiological role might be, using brain scans to study its effec t on brain activity. His preliminary results are tantalising, showing area s lighting up that are related to memory. Riba believes d may be involve d in retrieving facts and experiences. “When you give people ayahuasca, th ey re-experience memories that are there already. It’s like pressing a ran dom access button to your stored memories,” he says. Jace Callaway from th e University of Kuopio in Finland has another idea. He suggests that endog enous d and harmine-like substances may play a role in generating dream imagery. “We experience psychedelic states on a regular basis while dreami ng,” he says. But while its natural role is still uncertain, a more unnatu ral role is coming to the fore. The effects produced by psychedelic ds are strikingly similar to the symptoms of psychosis. In the 1950s, these s imilarities led to the suggestion that psychoactive compounds like d wer e the cause of schizophrenia. According to the theory, an enzymatic distu rbance in the body could lead to overproduction of hallucinogenic compound s. And if MAO activity is low, as suspected in people with schizophrenia, the compounds would linger and the hallucinations they trigger seep into e veryday existence. But researchers had always failed to detect consistent differences in d levels between patients and controls. “I spent my youth collecting and analysing gallons of urine from people with schizophrenia, ” recalls Robin Murray from the Institute of Psychiatry in London. “The en dogenous d hypothesis of schizophrenia was never disproved but was just overtaken by the dopamine theory, which was more immediately plausible.” But the theory is enjoying somthing of a comeback. Alicia Pomilio, an org anic chemist, and Jorge Ciprian-Ollivier, a psychiatrist, at the Universit y of Buenos Aires in Argentina realised that the church congregation membe rs could help them to look for the signature of d in the urine using gas chromatography and mass spectrometry. Once they knew what to look for, th ey were able to detect traces in the urine of patients with active schizop hrenia but not in controls. It is not clear whether people with schizophre nia are producing too much d, or too little MAO the result would be the same. But the discovery is exciting in that it paves the way to finding ne w ds to treat schizophrenia. But if d might be the cause of one medic al problem, it could be the cure for others. McKenna has found that d ex erts its effect by attaching mainly to one particular type of serotonin up take site called 5-HT2A, as do other psychedelic ds such as l, psiloc ybin and mescaline. Serotonin is a mood-altering neurotransmitter, also kn own to influence sleep, appetite, aggression and love. The newest class of antidepressant ds, including Prozac, are thought to work by blocking t he uptake of serotonin into nerve cells. Callaway’s recent studies suggest that ayahuasca might have some of the effects of antidepressant ds nat ure’s very own Prozac. He measured serotonin levels in rats after giving t hem ayahuasca and says the levels of the neurotransmitter “go through the roof”. After drinking hoasca tea users report a feel-good effect that can last for days. Callaway found that hoasca drinkers had a greater than norm al density of serotonin uptake sites on their blood platelets, where they are easier to measure than in the brain. People seem to respond, he says, by creating more receptors. When they are not getting a buzz from the tea, the additional receptors hunger for more serotonin, pushing the body to p roduce more. But does the brain bump up its number of serotonin uptake sit es too? Using a brain imaging technique that labels serotonin receptors, C allaway has now tested one person, and found signs of a similar upregulati on in a serotonin-rich region of the brain. Of course, this observation ne eds following up, but it’s an encouraging sign. “It’s a true tonic effect, ” says Callaway. The sacred tea “apparently does what antidepressants fail to do. It could lead to long-term plastic changes in the brain without ha ving to pop a pill every day.” Charles Grob, a psychiatrist at the Univer sity of California, Los Angeles, School of Medicine, reckons that this sus tained effect on mood makes ayahuasca a good candidate for treating addict ions as well as alleviating depression. People with serious alcohol proble ms and mood disorders were transformed by the church. All religions boast life-changing stories, but Grob believes the tea itself is important. Ther e is already one centre in Peru testing ayahuasca in clinical trials for d rug abuse. But the researchers are proceeding cautiously. Many people have been taking the hallucinogen within the supportive setting of the UDV for 30 years with seemingly no adverse side effects. But it is not always so. “If the tea is not properly prepared, or in the hands of an individual wi thout the appropriate support, the consequences can be negative,” says Gro b. Even in the highly controlled lab setting it can trigger twitching, vom iting and diarrhoea. Useful if you are an Amazonian hunter wanting to rid your gut of parasites, perhaps, but not exactly convenient if you are wear ing your best party gear.

I’m based out of for the most part. I feel that psychedelic trance should be psychedelic and should put you into a trance. I like to dance really hard. I like hard music with a lot of energy. My formative experiences lead me to believe that you can a lways go higher. I hope this cd takes you higher. I first met the Machin e Elf in 2001 when he invited me to stay with him in a squat in Tribeca. I repaid him by boring a hole in the wall into the next unit, which, alth ough vacant, contained a manequin, a harpoon (decorative i’m sure) and a bunch of sweaters. Wiley actually created the hole initially, with a pla stic head. I just sorta squared it out into a doorway approximately two fe et wide and 6 feet tall. When the Machine Elf awoke from his slumber he w as not pleased. I patched this breach into the next unit with some wallboa rd, spackle, and paint. You could hardly tell there was ever a hole beca use in addition to my Trance Music Production Skills, I’m a damn good she etrocker/ spackler. Now, in my efforts to clear my karma with the Elf, i’ ve decided to commemorate this occasion with this limited edition CD and a commemorative coin a la Franklin Mint. Enjoy and don’t forget that Jef f works hard for YOU! Peace Aaron- oCeLoT vs vectorSelector… Ed. not e – if you’ve ever heard what he did before, I can’t believe the same per son made the two.

Its dimensions were huge, much bigge r than needed for two tablets. The evidence that Moses was leading an Am anita mushroom cult is overwhelming and is expounded in great detail in t he amazing book Magic Fungi in Religion and Alchemy. Apparently he w as so secretive and protective of his stash that he had killed anyone who dared to even touch the ark let alone see what was inside. If someone w as helping carry the ark and it started to fall down from the surface it was carried on, and he ran to prevent it from falling, even he was killed . Eleusis The Greek Empire was one of if not the most successful civil ization in all history, thriving for 3000 years. At the core of the soci ety were the rites of spring and the Mysteries of Eleusis. Every year a parade would end at a temple in Eleusis were selected initiates would en ter and partake of a potion called the Kykeon. One theory suggests that this brew contained ergotized rye which causes hallucinogenic effects che mically related to l. For thousands of years, every spring this ritual t ook place and initiates include a very long list of enlightened minds fr om the era; Socrates, Plato, Aristotle are just a few. The Rites of Ele usis stood as the spiritual foundation for the success of Greek thought a nd Empire. The fact is that if you were initiated into the secrets you c ould not tell a single soul about what exactly occured in the temple or w hat ingredients were in the Kykeon, or you would punished by death.

The neighbors are warned, our neural synapses are at the ready. It’s going to be a most ex cellent showcase for the Boston trance people, I’m going to pull out all the stops to get as many New Yorkers as possible to fill the sizable spac e. Discounts will be given to Bostonians who make it down. Also I’m tryi ng to hook up a charter bus from Fung Wah so you can have a dj entertain you on the way down. Flyers will be up there in a couple of weeks, we also will have a another command live performance from Jay Indigom (D-Space St udios/Alpha Channel/M-field). Lauryn, Dino and Binary are already confi rmed, and hopefully Goldilocks and Ammon EP are down to be down. There w ill be plenty of time for everyone to play, any djs from the new england area email dino. And Bob the Ziatrance wizard is going to do tapestry ar t. If there are any weird crazy Boston artists that we can wrap this event around, please notify me and/or Dino. Fire is out b/c we’re indoors but what i’d love would be for example some weird MIT cyborgs with their batt lebots. or somthing. And maybe fluorescent blue blood. Dino (Changmian ) Perhaps the most experienced and influential member of the Boston psy-tr ance community, Dean began holding successful weeklies and all night beach gatherings as early as 1998. It was that year when he and long time frie nd Dave West founded Changmian Productions; thus putting Boston on the na tional “trance-map”. After three years of successful trance weeklies, Ch angmian decided to shift gears in the fall of 2000 and dedicate itself to propagating only the psychedelic sound. A few months later, “Samsara,”Bo ston’s first ever all psy-trance weekly, was started at a local bar in Cam bridge. After Samsara ended, Dino joined forces with Dave Henshaw and Ma thwin to launch Boston’s second all psy-trance weekly, “Anitya”. The sto ried two year history of this event made Boston synonymous with psy-tranc e. Over the years Dino has become known for his melodic and groovy full-o n psy-trance sound. His sets usually don’t exceed 136 BPM, giving the mus ic space to breathe, while allowing the listener to hear and feel every n uance. Dino’s diversity has become one of his finest attributes as a DJ. Whether it be full-on, progressive, chill out, or atmospheric drum & bassDean’s passion for music knows no limits… Dave Henshaw (Changmian) A progressive and hard-trance DJ in his earlier years, Dave wasn’t intro duced to the psychedelic sound until he spent 1998 living in Cape Town, So uth Africa. His first interactions with the sound were relatively indiffe rent and it wasn’t until his introduction to Dino in the fall fo 2000 tha t he was able to appreciate how beautiful, malleable, and adaptive the ps ychedelic sound could be. It was albums like Atmos’s “Headcleaner,” Vibra sphere’s “Echo,” and XV Kilist’s self-titled full-length that enamored Da ve to no end. He immediately joined Changmian Productions and began worki ng at “Samsara.” After that weekly ended, he teamed up with Dino and Math win to start “Anitya” – Boston’s storied two-year all-psy-trance weekly. To this day, (aside from writing long winded party reviews and babbling o n the lists all the time) Dave continues to refine his musical tastes and DJ skills in order to show how “progressive” and “psychedelic” music can unify, harmonize, and elevate parties to new heights. Primarily into the “Scandinavian sound” from labels like Iboga, Digital Structures, and Int erzone; Dave has been lucky enough to share the stage with many of the DJ ‘s and artists he respects the most. Expect a very groovy, very danceable and very ear-friendly set from Boston’s propagator of the progressive p sychedelic sound. Lauryn (Sonic Beating) Lauryn’s humble beginnings d ate back to 1998 when she was single-handedly throwing parties and produc ing her own all-trance radio show while a student at Hamilton College in upstate New York. A chance encounter with Ammon EP at Satellite Records o pened her door into the psychedelic world and Lauryn has since, never loo ked back. Starting in the winter of 2002, Lauryn has played amazing sets at Boston’s prestiguious psy-weekly, “Anitya”, has served (and continues to serve) as a resident of Sonic Beating’s monthly “Psyforia”, and has pl ayed multiple one-offs from Maine to Providence to New York and New Jersey . Still involved in a weekly radio show out of Tufts University, Lauryn i s consistently honing and fine-tuning the already impeccable DJ skills th at have made her a Boston crowd-pleaser. Though best known for blowing up dancefloors with her South African influenced dark funky full on sounds from the likes of Wizzy Noise, Altom, Rinkadink, and Damage, Lauryn has a lso been exploring the gentler side of the psychedelic sound. Her latest mix-CD, “Sub-Liminal” shows this, featuring tracks by Antix, Frogacult, Bitmonx and others. Binary (Sonic Beating) Before anyone even heard the name “Binary” in Boston, the man behind that name was busy producing “Fr ee Update,” an all-psy-trance radio program on a local college station. A fter honing his skills in the isolated studio, Binary broke into the publ ic eye with two ear-popping sets at Boston’s long-standing psy-weekly, “A nitya.” From there, he never looked back. Though “Free Update” remains a fixture in Boston radio, Binary has branched out into a highly skilled and versatile DJ (joined Anitya’s residency in September 2003,) a crafty and intelligent sound engineer, and the founder of his own production company – “Sonic Beating Productions.” Currently serving as the resident of his monthly brainchild, “Psyforia;” Binary has played to packed dancefloors a ll over the Eastern United States – most notably at last year’s Omni-Danc e, where he delivered a full-on set that tossed and crushed the outdoor a udience. Though his versatility and musical library have grown exponenti ally over the course of the last few years, Binary is most known for his powerful, intense, and at times overwhelming full-on trance. When Binary gets behind the system, you know you’re in for a good set. PLUS: Goldil ocks TBA Live Morning set by Jay Indigom (D-Space Studios/Alpha Channel/ M-field) Jay is back Alpha Channel/M-field 100% LIVE (the whole thing!) (Soular Records, CT) Fresh from a widely lauded performance at the H eaven & Earth Center in February and d’s Full Moon celebration at SETT Ing in May, J will project up tempo trance from “Alpha Channel” (J’s solo project-2003) and the newly formed “M-field” project (J and Rob’s collab oration material-2004) followed by an hour of down-tempo chillout music ac companied by live acoustic and electronic instruments. So unhinge your mi nd and body to two hours of a trance journey that takes you from the meta magic of up-tempo night music which will meld semi-transparently into prog ressive-styled morning trance as the sun rises to finally leave you float ing freely upon the waves of a premier chillout performance. Fluro Robot ic Art and Installations by Bob (Ziatrance) His robot can kick your robo t’s ass (By Dave Hanshaw) Growing up in the sands of New Mexico, Bob now makes his home in the peaceful confines of Boston. Known primarily for his internet radio station, Zia-Trance; Bob made a massive splash into Beant own’s visual scene this past winter at Psyforia, the city’s long-standing monthly party. An astonishing display of handmade iconographic flouresce nt tapestries lit up the dancefloor as Blue Spectral Monkey poured mayhem through the Sonic Beating Sound Pump. Ears and eyes were united in bliss ful indulgence! From there, Bob moved onto showing three-dimensional piec es motorized pieces, and was quickly named Psyforia’s resident deco artis t. Soon after, he did installations at both installments of Boston’s “Cen tral Psy,” and then another in the 2004 Omni-Dance Pavillion. Production increased and public interest in his work followed suit. His use of ligh t, motors, motion, and mechanical devices set his work apart from those f ocused on stationary installations. His creativity, versatility, and insa tiable desire for intensity always inspire those who view his pieces. Ton ite, we welcome Boston’s Visual Brahman to New York for another eye-poppi ng psychedemechanical visual installation! Studio 55 (i.e. home of Cata, Evan, Raffi, Zhenya and Kenya) has been renovated repainted and refurnish ed and may heretofore be referred to as “S.E.T.T.ING”. The gathering on f riday is intended to be a reaction to the full moon, a congregation of DM Teemsters, a chance to hear psy trance on a top notch sound system, and, very specifically, to cooperatively create a safe, clean and sacred envir onment, so that future avenues for love and entheospace may present themse lves to us. Please remember that the S.E.T.T.ING is a home for 5 people, so we implore you to help us keep it a clean home: please dispose butts in ashtrays, respect people’s personal belongings and artwork, respect wom en and children, respect and beware of the fact that ds and alcohol ha ve the power to severely fuck you up and turn you into a babbling morron w ith rude behavior. Extra ways to help create the S.E.T.T.ING include br inging art, deco, party supplies, fluoro-materials, food drink, plants or flowers. -August 11th – Wednesday – GoaTrash2.0 Downstairs at Karma, 51 1st Ave b/w 3rd & 4th 10pm-4am, free, ID 21+ / goatrash2.gif (web tranceam.org/goatrash2.gif) web brainm achines/goatrash2back.gif (web tranceam.org/goatrash2back .gif) -Aug 13th, 2004 Ecliptic-Trance confirmed at Club Exit Brooklyn Ecliptic-Trance Presents: Chapter IV – The Doors Of Perception- 08.13.20 04 at “Club Exit” Brooklyn, NYC.

Right, that is, if you like your Trance tracks like a tidal wave, like a werewolfs howl, like a sandblaster bustin g open your third eye. As he comes across quiet and somewhat reserved in person, one would not, at first, realize that Kri is on a mission, a serio us quest to bring Psychedelic Trance music to the people, and to bring th e people to a state of enlightenment in the process. Caught up in the par ty scene of the 90s and gaining a reputation for his skills in mixing bre akbeat and scratching, Kri left it all behind to pursue full-time the hau nting promise Goa trance laid out for him. Now, he has single handedly cr eated a devout Trance family in a tiny, southern town that had previously never heard of any such thing, orchestrating parties and gatherings whos e emphasis is holistic, about the music and the magic, never getting lost in the hype or the egocentrism of the business. Starting to build a body of his own compositions, edgy pieces demanding the listener to recognize Trances primal roots, Kri is showing himself as an incredibly dedicated Goa Trance musician and dj. More and more, his skills are being sought af ter in places all over the country, and I will venture a reason why. To l isten to Kri play is to remember our legacy as spiritual beings with tumu ltuous desires, with an innate need to pound our feet into the Earth to r aise our prayers to the heavens…on the dance floor that translates to h is creating all-consuming, orgiastic rituals of dance where he pushes you past your limits to a place beyond a good party or a great time, but to a place where you can capture a glimpse of a future in which the primal and the technological fuse to bring us a passionate and fulfilling existence on a planet that survives. Heavy? Yeah, but so is the Psychedelic Goa Tr ance experience, and heavier still is a night filled with Kris dark, driv ing tracks, his momentum slowly building like a panthers body tensing eac h muscle till its time to strike its prey, and then, youre a goner. Kri f irst played in New York at an outdoor festival by the d and most recent ly in Jersey City for Omnitribe. Blue Spectral Monkey Touch Samadhi /Ash eville, NC bio: As a core member of the TOUCH Samadhi family in Ashevil le, BSM has been quite busy in his mission to spread the sounds of psyche delic trance and chillout across the USA. Since 1997, BSM has maintained a rigorous DJ schedule, having performed at over 200 events across 19 sta tes. He is well known for his deeply psychedelic selections and driving, twisted night sets that energize any dancefloor.

The documentary “Carlos C astaneda: Enigma of a Sorcerer,” (movies2.nytimes/gst/movies/m at the Two B oots Pioneer Theater in the East Village, struggles with that question bu t ultimately declines to answer it. Directed by Ralph Torjan, once a memb er of Castaneda’s inner circle of students, this digital video documentar y piles up plenty of evidence that Don Juan, the Yaqui shaman from Mexico who supposedly trained Castaneda in the ancient Indian ways of accessing alternative realties, was a complete invention on Castaneda’s part. Ma ny of Don Juan’s “teachings,” the film suggests, were drawn from previously published academic articles, and little in Castaneda’s account of his fa bled apprenticeship to the master checks out when compared to the availab le facts. Castaneda, who died in 1998, used the celebrity his best-selli ng book earned him to establish his own personality cult. He surrounded h imself with servile followers and made a habit of seducing female recruit s. One of his former lovers bluntly characterizes the group around him as “Carlos’s private harem.” But as painfully aware of Castaneda’s shortco mings as he is, Mr. Torjan makes no secret of having been deeply affected by his time with him. He tries to reclaim what he can from his former gu ru, offering testimony from several ex-members of the Castaneda cult abou t the profound, positive effect Castaneda’s teachings had on their lives. Unfortunately the explanations get very fuzzy at this point, and it beco mes hard to tell just what Castaneda was advocating, apart from the liber al use of psychedelic ds. Trying to recreate that experience, Mr. To rjan has framed his talking-head interviews against an annoyingly persist ent psychedelic background, generated by the popular music visualization program G-Force. It’s not easy to concentrate on what’s being said when p ulsating colors and geometric patterns are radiating from the speakers’ h eads. But maybe that’s what Castaneda himself was counting on, as he rode the vague ramblings of a probably fictional teacher to what was, and rem ains, an international reputation as a modern prophet.

Maybe one of these days I’ll make a Day-Glo press pass. Goa Gil’s bu ddy Cap’n Crunch is in town! if anybody can put him up call him at 209-9 93-1556; he is wildly averse to cigarette smoke but I’m gonna try to get him into the now well established Goa Trash at Karma Wednesday and/or Thi asos Thursday (which is free again!) This is all very funny because Cap’ n Crunch has given speeches at conventions in ritzy hotels in Goa to India n businessmen looking to cash in on the Goa tourist dollar, and here he is! I am the sole vendor of Astrid’s former crony Aaron Ocelot’s wicked new CD, ultrapsychedelic and crunchy. $10 inc. postage; I will refund yo ur money (less postage) for a thousand word testimonial to the first five respondents. I volunteered to do this because frankly the tracks are so sick that someone has to get this out.

I’m based out o f for the most part. I feel that psychedelic trance should be psychedelic and should put you into a trance. I like to dance really hard. I like hard music with a lot of energy. My formative experiences le ad me to believe that you can always go higher. I hope this cd takes you higher. I first met the Machine Elf in 2001 when he invited me to stay wi th him in a squat in Tribeca. I repaid him by boring a hole in the wall i nto the next unit, which, although vacant, contained a manequin, a harpoo n (decorative i’m sure) and a bunch of sweaters. Wiley actually created t he hole initially, with a plastic head. I just sorta squared it out into a doorway approximately two feet wide and 6 feet tall. When the Machine E lf awoke from his slumber he was not pleased. I patched this breach into the next unit with some wallboard, spackle, and paint. You could hardly tell there was ever a hole because in addition to my Trance Music Product ion Skills, I’m a damn good sheetrocker/ spackler. Now, in my efforts to clear my karma with the Elf, i’ve decided to commemorate this occasion wi th this limited edition CD and a commemorative coin a la Franklin Mint. Enjoy and don’t forget that Jeff works hard for YOU! Peace Aaron- oCeLo T vs vectorSelector… (Ed. note – if you’ve ever heard what he did befor e, I can’t believe the same person made the two. To say there has been a lot of improvement is an understatement. Buy it and you will be The Shit . Come by early and hear it Wednesday at Goa Trash if you’re skeptical. Your world will be rocked) Psychedelic News Trance Business recov ering After some very difficult Years for nearly everyone that is doing bu siness in the Trance Scene finally the Scene is recovering!

Its dimensions were huge, much bigger than nee ded for two tablets. The evidence that Moses was leading an Amanita mush room cult is overwhelming and is expounded in great detail in the amazing book Magic Fungi in Religion and Alchemy. Apparently he was so se cretive and protective of his stash that he had killed anyone who dared t o even touch the ark let alone see what was inside. If someone was helpi ng carry the ark and it started to fall down from the surface it was carr ied on, and he ran to prevent it from falling, even he was killed. Ele usis The Greek Empire was one of if not the most successful civilization in all history, thriving for 3000 years. At the core of the society were the rites of spring and the Mysteries of Eleusis. Every year a parade w ould end at a temple in Eleusis were selected initiates would enter and p artake of a potion called the Kykeon. One theory suggests that this brew contained ergotized rye which causes hallucinogenic effects chemically r elated to l. For thousands of years, every spring this ritual took plac e and initiates include a very long list of enlightened minds from the er a; Socrates, Plato, Aristotle are just a few. The Rites of Eleusis stoo d as the spiritual foundation for the success of Greek thought and Empire . The fact is that if you were initiated into the secrets you could not tell a single soul about what exactly occured in the temple or what ingre dients were in the Kykeon, or you would punished by death.

The neighbors are warned, our neural synapses are at the ready. It’s goi ng to be a most excellent showcase for the Boston trance people, I’m goin g to pull out all the stops to get as many New Yorkers as possible to fil l the sizable space. Discounts will be given to Bostonians who make it dow n. Also I’m trying to hook up a charter bus from Fung Wah so you can hav e a dj entertain you on the way down. Flyers will be up there in a couple of weeks, we also will have a another command live performance from Jay I ndigom (D-Space Studios/Alpha Channel/M-field). Lauryn, Dino and Binary are already confirmed, and hopefully Goldilocks and Ammon EP are down to be down. There will be plenty of time for everyone to play, any djs from the new england area email dino. And Bob the Ziatrance wizard is going to do tapestry art. If there are any weird crazy Boston artists that we ca n wrap this event around, please notify me and/or Dino. Fire is out b/c we’re indoors but what i’d love would be for example some weird MIT cybor gs with their battlebots. or somthing. And maybe fluorescent blue blood . Dino (Changmian) Perhaps the most experienced and influential member of the Boston psy-trance community, Dean began holding successful weeklies a nd all night beach gatherings as early as 1998. It was that year when he and long time friend Dave West founded Changmian Productions; thus puttin g Boston on the national “trance-map”. After three years of successful t rance weeklies, Changmian decided to shift gears in the fall of 2000 and dedicate itself to propagating only the psychedelic sound. A few months l ater, “Samsara,”Boston’s first ever all psy-trance weekly, was started at a local bar in Cambridge. After Samsara ended, Dino joined forces with D ave Henshaw and Mathwin to launch Boston’s second all psy-trance weekly, “Anitya”. The storied two year history of this event made Boston synonym ous with psy-trance. Over the years Dino has become known for his melodic and groovy full-on psy-trance sound. His sets usually don’t exceed 136 B PM, giving the music space to breathe, while allowing the listener to hea r and feel every nuance. Dino’s diversity has become one of his finest at tributes as a DJ. Whether it be full-on, progressive, chill out, or atmos pheric drum & bass; Dean’s passion for music knows no limits… Dave Hens haw (Changmian) A progressive and hard-trance DJ in his earlier years, Dave wasn’t introduced to the psychedelic sound until he spent 1998 livin g in Cape Town, South Africa. His first interactions with the sound were relatively indifferent and it wasn’t until his introduction to Dino in the fall fo 2000 that he was able to appreciate how beautiful, malleable, a nd adaptive the psychedelic sound could be. It was albums like Atmos’s “H eadcleaner,” Vibrasphere’s “Echo,” and XV Kilist’s self-titled full-lengt h that enamored Dave to no end. He immediately joined Changmian Productio ns and began working at “Samsara.” After that weekly ended, he teamed up with Dino and Mathwin to start “Anitya” – Boston’s storied two-year all-p sy-trance weekly. To this day, (aside from writing long winded party revi ews and babbling on the lists all the time) Dave continues to refine his musical tastes and DJ skills in order to show how “progressive” and “psyc hedelic” music can unify, harmonize, and elevate parties to new heights. Primarily into the “Scandinavian sound” from labels like Iboga, Digital S tructures, and Interzone; Dave has been lucky enough to share the stage wi th many of the DJ’s and artists he respects the most. Expect a very groov y, very danceable, and very ear-friendly set from Boston’s propagator of the progressive psychedelic sound. Lauryn (Sonic Beating) Lauryn’s h umble beginnings date back to 1998 when she was single-handedly throwing parties and producing her own all-trance radio show while a student at Ha milton College in upstate New York. A chance encounter with Ammon EP at S atellite Records opened her door into the psychedelic world and Lauryn has since, never looked back. Starting in the winter of 2002, Lauryn has pla yed amazing sets at Boston’s prestiguious psy-weekly, “Anitya”, has serve d (and continues to serve) as a resident of Sonic Beating’s monthly “Psyf oria”, and has played multiple one-offs from Maine to Providence to New Y ork and New Jersey. Still involved in a weekly radio show out of Tufts Un iversity, Lauryn is consistently honing and fine-tuning the already impec cable DJ skills that have made her a Boston crowd-pleaser. Though best kn own for blowing up dancefloors with her South African influenced dark fun ky full on sounds from the likes of Wizzy Noise, Altom, Rinkadink, and Da mage, Lauryn has also been exploring the gentler side of the psychedelic sound. Her latest mix-CD, “Sub-Liminal” shows this, featuring tracks by Antix, Frogacult, Bitmonx and others. Binary (Sonic Beating) Before anyo ne even heard the name “Binary” in Boston, the man behind that name was b usy producing “Free Update,” an all-psy-trance radio program on a local c ollege station. After honing his skills in the isolated studio, Binary br oke into the public eye with two ear-popping sets at Boston’s long-standin g psy-weekly, “Anitya.” From there, he never looked back. Though “Free Up date” remains a fixture in Boston radio, Binary has branched out into a h ighly skilled and versatile DJ (joined Anitya’s residency in September 20 03,) a crafty and intelligent sound engineer, and the founder of his own production company – “Sonic Beating Productions.” Currently serving as th e resident of his monthly brainchild, “Psyforia;” Binary has played to pa cked dancefloors all over the Eastern United States – most notably at las t year’s Omni-Dance, where he delivered a full-on set that tossed and cru shed the outdoor audience. Though his versatility and musical library ha ve grown exponentially over the course of the last few years, Binary is m ost known for his powerful, intense, and at times overwhelming full-on tr ance. When Binary gets behind the system, you know you’re in for a good s et. PLUS: Goldilocks TBA Live Morning set by Jay Indigom (D-Space Stud ios/Alpha Channel/M-field) Jay is back Alpha Channel/M-field 100% LIVE (the whole thing!) (Soular Records, CT) Fresh from a widely lauded pe rformance at the Heaven & Earth Center in February and d’s Full Moonlebration at SETTIng in May, J will project up tempo trance from “Alpha C hannel” (J’s solo project-2003) and the newly formed “M-field” project (J and Rob’s collaboration material-2004) followed by an hour of down-tempo chillout music accompanied by live acoustic and electronic instruments. So unhinge your mind and body to two hours of a trance journey that takes you from the metamagic of up-tempo night music which will meld semi-trans parently into progressive-styled morning trance as the sun rises to finally leave you floating freely upon the waves of a premier chillout performa nce. Fluro Robotic Art and Installations by Bob (Ziatrance) His robot can kick your robot’s ass (By Dave Hanshaw) Growing up in the sands of New Mexico, Bob now makes his home in the peaceful confines of Boston. Known primarily for his internet radio station, Zia-Trance; Bob made a massive splash into Beantown’s visual scene this past winter at Psyforia, the ci ty’s long-standing monthly party. An astonishing display of handmade icon ographic flourescent tapestries lit up the dancefloor as Blue Spectral Mo nkey poured mayhem through the Sonic Beating Sound Pump. Ears and eyes we re united in blissful indulgence! From there, Bob moved onto showing thre e-dimensional pieces motorized pieces, and was quickly named Psyforia’s r esident deco artist. Soon after, he did installations at both installment s of Boston’s “Central Psy,” and then another in the 2004 Omni-Dance Pavi llion. Production increased and public interest in his work followed suit . His use of light, motors, motion, and mechanical devices set his work apart from those focused on stationary installations. His creativity, ver satility, and insatiable desire for intensity always inspire those who vie w his pieces. Tonite, we welcome Boston’s Visual Brahman to New York for another eye-popping psychedemechanical visual installation! Studio 55 (i .e. home of Cata, Evan, Raffi, Zhenya and Kenya) has been renovated repai nted and refurnished and may heretofore be referred to as “S.E.T.T.ING”. The gathering on friday is intended to be a reaction to the full moon, a congregation of deemsters, a chance to hear psy trance on a top notch s ound system, and, very specifically, to cooperatively create a safe, clean and sacred environment, so that future avenues for love and entheospace m ay present themselves to us. Please remember that the S.E.T.T.ING is a h ome for 5 people, so we implore you to help us keep it a clean home: plea se dispose butts in ashtrays, respect people’s personal belongings and ar twork, respect women and children, respect and beware of the fact that dr ugs and alcohol have the power to severely fuck you up and turn you into a babbling morron with rude behavior. Extra ways to help create the S.E. T.T.ING include bringing art, deco, party supplies, fluoro-materials, food drink, plants or flowers. -August 11th – Wednesday – GoaTrash2.0 Do wnstairs at Karma, 51 1st Ave b/w 3rd & 4th 10pm-4am, free, ID 21+ /goatrash2.gif (web tranceam.org/goatrash2.g if) /goatrash2back.gif (/goatrash2back.gif) -Aug 13th, 2004 Ecliptic-Trance confirmed at Cl ub Exit Brooklyn Ecliptic-Trance Presents: Chapter IV – The Doors Of Per ception- 08.13.2004 at “Club Exit” Brooklyn, NYC.

Right, that is, if you l ike your Trance tracks like a tidal wave, like a werewolfs howl, like a s andblaster busting open your third eye. As he comes across quiet and some what reserved in person, one would not, at first, realize that Kri is on a mission, a serious quest to bring Psychedelic Trance music to the peopl e, and to bring the people to a state of enlightenment in the process. Ca ught up in the party scene of the 90s and gaining a reputation for his sk ills in mixing breakbeat and scratching, Kri left it all behind to pursue full-time the haunting promise Goa trance laid out for him. Now, he has single handedly created a devout Trance family in a tiny, southern town t hat had previously never heard of any such thing, orchestrating parties a nd gatherings whose emphasis is holistic, about the music and the magic, never getting lost in the hype or the egocentrism of the business. Starti ng to build a body of his own compositions, edgy pieces demanding the lis tener to recognize Trances primal roots, Kri is showing himself as an inc redibly dedicated Goa Trance musician and dj. More and more, his skills ar e being sought after in places all over the country, and I will venture a reason why. To listen to Kri play is to remember our legacy as spiritual beings with tumultuous desires, with an innate need to pound our feet int o the Earth to raise our prayers to the heavens…on the dance floor that translates to his creating all-consuming, orgiastic rituals of dance whe re he pushes you past your limits to a place beyond a good party or a gre at time, but to a place where you can capture a glimpse of a future in wh ich the primal and the technological fuse to bring us a passionate and fu lfilling existence on a planet that survives. Heavy? Yeah, but so is the Psychedelic Goa Trance experience, and heavier still is a night filled wi th Kris dark, driving tracks, his momentum slowly building like a panther s body tensing each muscle till its time to strike its prey, and then, yo ure a goner. Kri first played in New York at an outdoor festival by the D MT and most recently in Jersey City for Omnitribe. Blue Spectral Monkey Touch Samadhi /Asheville, NC bio: As a core member of the TOUCH Samadhi family in Asheville, BSM has been quite busy in his mission to spread th e sounds of psychedelic trance and chillout across the USA. Since 1997, B SM has maintained a rigorous DJ schedule, having performed at over 200 ev ents across 19 states. He is well known for his deeply psychedelic selec tions and driving, twisted night sets that energize any dancefloor.

Cheap Indian clothes Hello, this is Stefan. My guru, Ammachi, is in NY at the Manhattan Center this weekend (Sat/Sun/Mon 17/18/19) and I would like to invite everyone to come and meet her. Many of you know her, but for those who don’t, this is a page from her website that tells about Amma and her mission. ammachi.org/amma/index Amma is often refered to as the hugging guru. I have witnessed her hug and speak to thousands of people for hours and days on end without any break for food, drink or to even stand up! Many people view her actions and abilities as miraculous. She is an Indian woman but does not seek to convert anyone and her mission is not sectarian. Her goals are humanitarian. Here is a link about meeting her personally: ammachi.org/amma/meeting-amma She does not impose any religion and people of all faiths come to spend time in her presence and the positive environment that surrounds her. There is music, wonderful food, guided meditations by Amma, a market with many unique items, and of course, everyone gets a hug from Amma and a mantra specifically chosen by her! There is no charge for admission. I wont hesitate to say that this woman has been an extremely positive role model for me and I feel very lucky that she gives so much attention to New York. She consistantly visits, year after year and gives NY 3 full days, quite possibly with no sleep! Here is a quote that expresses why I am so inspired by Ammachi: Once a press reporter asked Amma how was it possible for her to embrace each and every one in the same loving way, even if they were diseased or unpleasant. Amma replied, When a bee hovers over a garden of varied flowers, what it beholds is not the difference between the flowers but the honey within them. Similarly, Amma sees the same Supreme Self in each and every one. The gathering runs almost 24 hours a day and it is a very welcoming environment. details: ammachi.org/tours/amma-tours/new-york Thank you for your attention, hope this wasn’t too long…:) Feel free to call me with any questions, or if you want me to show you around!

I’m based out of for the most part. I feel that psychedelic trance should be psychedelic and should put you into a trance. I like to dance really hard. I like hard music with a lot of energy. My formative experiences lea d me to believe that you can always go higher. I hope this cd takes you hi gher. I first met the Machine Elf in 2001 when he invited me to stay with him in a squat in Tribeca. I repaid him by boring a hole in the wall into the next unit, which, although vacant, contained a manequin, a harpoon (de corative i’m sure) and a bunch of sweaters. Wiley actually created the hol e initially, with a plastic head. I just sorta squared it out into a doorw ay approximately two feet wide and 6 feet tall. When the Machine Elf awoke from his slumber he was not pleased. I patched this breach into the next unit with some wallboard, spackle, and paint. You could hardly tell there was ever a hole because in addition to my Trance Music Production Skills, I’m a damn good sheetrocker/ spackler. Now, in my efforts to clear my kar ma with the Elf, i’ve decided to commemorate this occasion with this limit ed edition CD and a commemorative coin a la Franklin Mint. Enjoy and don’ t forget that Jeff works hard for YOU! Peace Aaron- oCeLoT vs vectorSele ctor… (Ed. note – if you’ve ever heard what he did before, I can’t belie ve the same person made the two. To say there has been a lot of improveme nt is an understatement. Buy it and you will be The Shit. Come by early a nd hear it Wednesday at Goa Trash if you’re skeptical. Your world will be rocked) Psychedelic News News from Ecliptic Trance – Rinkadink out, Joti i n! Ladies and Gentleman it is with a sad and grave heart that we must annou nce as soon as we could that Vana, “Rinkadink” will not be coming to play at this show. I would like to share with you the long and ridiculous story of this drama because we believe that honesty is our #1 priority and also our top virtue. So here goes: The booking process started back in late M arch into early April 2004. At that time Rinkadink did not have a visa to enter the US. We started the process giving us about 5 months +/- to compl ete it. After working closely with Shane Gobi (Alchemy Label Manager) and Sophie of Alchemy, along with Vana himself. We setup his interview for a t ourist visa… As this was denied, We staright away went for an artist vis a classification. Everyone at Alchemy worked overtime and much information was transmitted between the 2 bodies. I have paid here 100$ for his Artis t Visa application and $400 to lawyers (who owed me a favour or it would h ave been much more) that effectivly sped up the process of his handling. W ith all this going on, we were still unable to prove to the US Government that Vana will not stay more then 3 days here and that his interest is not to work illegally in some deli in new york or plant bombs somewhere… ex cuse my sarcasm, but this is their general point of view since 9/11/2001. We are truly dissapointed as it would take 4 months to have Rinkadink even be qualified to re-try his application. We have exhausted all the options and smuggling him in a trunk from Canada was also brought up and quickly dismissed. We realize that people were waiting for him to make his mar k on NYC, but at this time it is out of our hands. We do not intend to lea ve a hole in the lineup so with no further delay, we are proud to present: *** JOTI SIDHU AKA PSYCHAOS – LIVE! *** Joti is one of the pioneers of trance and is soon coming out with a new Psychaos album. I would to pers onally thank Shane Gobi of Alchemy Records for seriously dealing with this bullshit on a daily basis for the past 5 months. Show must go on. Here i s a message from Mr. Shane Gobi – Alchemy Records Manager: “hI Firstly i w ould like to apologise for rinkadinks show been canseled, as much as vana would have loved to come, its been an impossible task, so much time and en ergy wasted in trying to make this happen, but it was not meant to be, Alc hemy Records would like to thank Gadi for all his time and effort over the last five months, and we would like to wish him all the best with this eve nt, ………… with Joti at hand, im sure its going to be no problem A ll the best Alchemy Records crew” for more disussion read here: f orum.isratrance/viewtopic.php/topic/35597/forum/28 -gadi at ecliptic-tran Reviews/Photos/Videos I ran into the old owner of 48 Bowery (the blond e chinese guy) with all his asian pals at the anniversary party for Alladi n Project at Club Hard. Man that was way the hell out there. Got to Orga smateria by 3:45 and it took awhile to cool off the speakers to play. The NYPD had came in 2am but there were still a lot of people there.

Dino (Changmian) Perhaps the most experienced and influential member of the Boston psy-trance community, Dean began holding successful weeklies a nd all night beach gatherings as early as 1998. It was that year when he a nd long time friend Dave West founded Changmian Productions; thus putting Boston on the national “trance-map”. After three years of successful tranweeklies, Changmian decided to shift gears in the fall of 2000 and dedi cate itself to propagating only the psychedelic sound. A few months later, “Samsara,”Boston’s first ever all psy-trance weekly, was started at a loca l bar in Cambridge. After Samsara ended, Dino joined forces with Dave Hen shaw and Mathwin to launch Boston’s second all psy-trance weekly, “Anitya” . The storied two year history of this event made Boston synonymous with psy-trance. Over the years Dino has become known for his melodic and groov y full-on psy-trance sound. His sets usually don’t exceed 136 BPM, giving the music space to breathe, while allowing the listener to hear and feel e very nuance. Dino’s diversity has become one of his finest attributes as a DJ. Whether it be full-on, progressive, chill out, or atmospheric drum & bass; Dean’s passion for music knows no limits… Dave Henshaw (Changmian) A progressive and hard-trance DJ in his earlier years, Dave wasn’t introdu ced to the psychedelic sound until he spent 1998 living in Cape Town, Sout h Africa. His first interactions with the sound were relatively indifferen t and it wasn’t until his introduction to Dino in the fall fo 2000 that he was able to appreciate how beautiful, malleable, and adaptive the psyched elic sound could be. It was albums like Atmos’s “Headcleaner,” Vibrasphere ‘s “Echo,” and XV Kilist’s self-titled full-length that enamored Dave to n o end. He immediately joined Changmian Productions and began working at “S amsara.” After that weekly ended, he teamed up with Dino and Mathwin to st art “Anitya” – Boston’s storied two-year all-psy-trance weekly. To this da y, (aside from writing long winded party reviews and babbling on the lists all the time) Dave continues to refine his musical tastes and DJ skills i n order to show how “progressive” and “psychedelic” music can unify, harmo nize, and elevate parties to new heights. Primarily into the “Scandinavian sound” from labels like Iboga, Digital Structures, and Interzone; Dave ha s been lucky enough to share the stage with many of the DJ’s and artists h e respects the most. Expect a very groovy, very danceable, and very ear-fr iendly set from Boston’s propagator of the progressive psychedelic sound. Lauryn (Sonic Beating) Lauryn’s humble beginnings date back to 1998 when she was single-handedly throwing parties and producing her own all-trance radio show while a student at Hamilton College in upstate New York. A chanencounter with Ammon EP at Satellite Records opened her door into the p sychedelic world and Lauryn has since, never looked back. Starting in the winter of 2002, Lauryn has played amazing sets at Boston’s prestiguious ps y-weekly, “Anitya”, has served (and continues to serve) as a resident of S onic Beating’s monthly “Psyforia”, and has played multiple one-offs from M aine to Providence to New York and New Jersey. Still involved in a weekly radio show out of Tufts University, Lauryn is consistently honing and fine -tuning the already impeccable DJ skills that have made her a Boston crowd -pleaser. Though best known for blowing up dancefloors with her South Afri can influenced dark funky full on sounds from the likes of Wizzy Noise, Al tom, Rinkadink, and Damage, Lauryn has also been exploring the gentler side of the psychedelic sound. Her latest mix-CD, “Sub-Liminal” shows this, featuring tracks by Antix, Frogacult, Bitmonx and others. Binary (Sonic Be ating) Before anyone even heard the name “Binary” in Boston, the man behind that name was busy producing “Free Update,” an all-psy-trance radio progr am on a local college station. After honing his skills in the isolated stu dio, Binary broke into the public eye with two ear-popping sets at Boston’ s long-standing psy-weekly, “Anitya.” From there, he never looked back. Th ough “Free Update” remains a fixture in Boston radio, Binary has branched out into a highly skilled and versatile DJ (joined Anitya’s residency in S eptember 2003,) a crafty and intelligent sound engineer, and the founder o f his own production company – “Sonic Beating Productions.” Currently serv ing as the resident of his monthly brainchild, “Psyforia;” Binary has play ed to packed dancefloors all over the Eastern United States – most notably at last year’s Omni-Dance, where he delivered a full-on set that tossed a nd crushed the outdoor audience. Though his versatility and musical libra ry have grown exponentially over the course of the last few years, Binary is most known for his powerful, intense, and at times overwhelming full-on trance. When Binary gets behind the system, you know you’re in for a good set. PLUS: Goldilocks TBA Live Morning set by Jay Indigom (D-Space Studio s/Alpha Channel/M-field) Jay is back Alpha Channel/M-field 100% LIVE (the whole thing!) (Soular Records, CT) Fresh from a widely lauded performa nce at the Heaven & Earth Center in February and d’s Full Moon celebrati on at SETTIng in May, J will project up tempo trance from “Alpha Channel” (J’s solo project-2003) and the newly formed “M-field” project (J and Rob’ s collaboration material-2004) followed by an hour of down-tempo chillout music accompanied by live acoustic and electronic instruments. So unhinge your mind and body to two hours of a trance journey that takes you from th e metamagic of up-tempo night music which will meld semi-transparently int o progressive-styled morning trance as the sun rises to finally leave you floating freely upon the waves of a premier chillout performance. Fluro Ro botic Art and Installations by Bob (Ziatrance) His robot can kick your rob ot’s ass (By Dave Hanshaw) Growing up in the sands of New Mexico, Bob now m akes his home in the peaceful confines of Boston. Known primarily for his internet radio station, Zia-Trance; Bob made a massive splash into Beantow n’s visual scene this past winter at Psyforia, the city’s long-standing mo nthly party. An astonishing display of handmade iconographic flourescent t apestries lit up the dancefloor as Blue Spectral Monkey poured mayhem thro ugh the Sonic Beating Sound Pump. Ears and eyes were united in blissful in dulgence! From there, Bob moved onto showing three-dimensional pieces moto rized pieces, and was quickly named Psyforia’s resident deco artist. Soon after, he did installations at both installments of Boston’s “Central Psy, ” and then another in the 2004 Omni-Dance Pavillion. Production increased and public interest in his work followed suit. His use of light, motors, motion, and mechanical devices set his work apart from those focused on st ationary installations. His creativity, versatility, and insatiable desire for intensity always inspire those who view his pieces. Tonite, we welcom e Boston’s Visual Brahman to New York for another eye-popping psychedemech anical visual installation! Studio 55 (i.e. home of Cata, Evan, Raffi, Zhen ya and Kenya) has been renovated repainted and refurnished and may heretof ore be referred to as “S.E.T.T.ING”. The gathering on friday is intended t o be a reaction to the full moon, a congregation of deemsters, a chance to hear psy trance on a top notch sound system, and, very specifically, to cooperatively create a safe, clean and sacred environment, so that future avenues for love and entheospace may present themselves to us. Please re member that the S.E.T.T.ING is a home for 5 people, so we implore you to h elp us keep it a clean home: please dispose butts in ashtrays, respect peo ple’s personal belongings and artwork, respect women and children, respect and beware of the fact that ds and alcohol have the power to severely fuck you up and turn you into a babbling morron with rude behavior. Extra ways to help create the S.E.T.T.ING include bringing art, deco, party sup plies, fluoro-materials, food drink, plants or flowers. -August 11th – W ednesday – GoaTrash2.0 Downstairs at Karma, 51 1st Ave b/w 3rd & 4th 10pm-4 am, free, ID 21+ /goatrash2.gif .c om/goatrash2back.gif -Aug 13th, 2004 Ecliptic-Trance confirmed at Club Exi t Brooklyn Ecliptic-Trance Presents: Chapter IV – The Doors Of Perception- 08.13.2004 at “Club Exit” Brooklyn, NYC.

Right, tha t is, if you like your Trance tracks like a tidal wave, like a werewolfs h owl, like a sandblaster busting open your third eye. As he comes across qu iet and somewhat reserved in person, one would not, at first, realize that Kri is on a mission, a serious quest to bring Psychedelic Trance music to the people, and to bring the people to a state of enlightenment in the pr ocess. Caught up in the party scene of the 90s and gaining a reputation fo r his skills in mixing breakbeat and scratching, Kri left it all behind to pursue full-time the haunting promise Goa trance laid out for him. Now, h e has single handedly created a devout Trance family in a tiny, southern t own that had previously never heard of any such thing, orchestrating parti es and gatherings whose emphasis is holistic, about the music and the magi c, never getting lost in the hype or the egocentrism of the business. Star ting to build a body of his own compositions, edgy pieces demanding the li stener to recognize Trances primal roots, Kri is showing himself as an inc redibly dedicated Goa Trance musician and dj. More and more, his skills are being sought after in places all over the country, and I will venture a r eason why. To listen to Kri play is to remember our legacy as spiritual be ings with tumultuous desires, with an innate need to pound our feet into t he Earth to raise our prayers to the heavens…on the dance floor that tra nslates to his creating all-consuming, orgiastic rituals of dance where he pushes you past your limits to a place beyond a good party or a great tim e, but to a place where you can capture a glimpse of a future in which the primal and the technological fuse to bring us a passionate and fulfilling existence on a planet that survives. Heavy? Yeah, but so is the Psychedel ic Goa Trance experience, and heavier still is a night filled with Kris da rk, driving tracks, his momentum slowly building like a panthers body tens ing each muscle till its time to strike its prey, and then, youre a goner. Kri first played in New York at an outdoor festival by the d and most r ecently in Jersey City for Omnitribe. Blue Spectral Monkey Touch Samadhi /A sheville, NC bio: As a core member of the TOUCH Samadhi family in Ashevi lle, BSM has been quite busy in his mission to spread the sounds of psyche delic trance and chillout across the USA.

My formative experiences lead me to believe that you can alw ays go higher. I hope this cd takes you higher. I first met the Machine Elf in 2001 when he invited me to stay with him in a squat in Trib eca. I repaid him by boring a hole in the wall into the next unit, which, although vacant, contained a manequin, a harpoon (decorative i’m su re) and a bunch of sweaters. Wiley actually created the ho le initially, with a plastic head. I just sorta squared it out into a doorw ay approximately two feet wide and 6 feet tall. When the Machine Elf awoke from his slumber he was not pleased. I patched this breach into the next un it with some wallboard, spackle, and paint. You could hardly tell there was ever a hole because in addition to my Trance Music Production Skills, I’m a damn good sheetrocker/ spackler. Now, in my efforts to clear my k arma with the Elf, i’ve decided to commemorate this occasion with this limi ted edition CD and a commemorative coin a la Franklin Mint.

Come by early and hear it Wednesday at Goa Trash if you’re s NT-FAMILY: ArialLadies and Gentleman it is with a sad and grave heart tha t we must announce as soon as we could that Vana, “Rinkadink” will not be c oming to play at this show. I would like to share with you the long and rid iculous story of this drama because we believe that honesty is our #1 prior ity and also our top virtue. So here goes: The booking process star ted back in late March into early April 2004. At that time Rinkadink did no t have a visa to enter the US. We started the process giving us about 5 mon ths +/- to complete it. After working closely with Shane Gobi (Alchemy Labe l Manager) and Sophie of Alchemy, along with Vana himself. We setup his int erview for a tourist visa… As this was denied, We staright away went for an artist visa classification. Everyone at Alchemy worked overtime and much information was transmitted between the 2 bodies. I have paid here 100$ fo r his Artist Visa application and $400 to lawyers (who owed me a favour or it would have been much more) that effectivly sped up the process of his ha ndling. With all this going on, we were still unable to prove to the US Gov ernment that Vana will not stay more then 3 days here and that his interest is not to work illegally in some deli in new york or plant bombs somewhere … excuse my sarcasm, but this is their general point of view since 9/11/2 001. We are truly dissapointed as it would take 4 months to have Rinkad ink even be qualified to re-try his application. We have exhausted all the options, and smuggling him in a trunk from Canada was also brought up and q om/images/smiles/iconwink.gif” We realize that people were waitin g for him to make his mark on NYC, but at this time it is out of our hands. We do not intend to leave a hole in the lineup so with no further delay, w e are proud to present: ! incode Start ! incode Start – -*** JOTI SIDHU AKA PSYCHAOS – LIVE! ***! incode End ! incode End Joti is one of the pioneers of trance and is soon comi ng out with a new Psychaos album.

Sound: D MT Sound System, 5000 Watts Mackie Sponsored by Philly 604 Directed by Equu s Execuitve Produxcer: Machinelph from A Midsummer Night’s Dream: Through t he house give glimmering light, By the dead and drowsy fire: Every elf an d fairy sprite Hop as light as bird from brier: And this ditty, after me, Sing and dance it trippingly. First, rehearse your song by rote, To eac h word a warbling note; Hand in hand, with fairy grace, Will we sing, and bless this place. Now, until the break of day, Through this house each f airy stray, To the best bride-bed will we, Which by us shall blessed be; And the issue there create Ever shall be fortunate. So shall all the cou ples three Ever true in loving be; And the blots of Nature’s hand Shall not in their issue stand: Never mole, hare-lip, nor scar, Nor mark prodig ious, such as are Despised in nativity, Shall upon their children be.E2 8094 With this field-dew consecrate, Every fairy take his gate; And ea ch several chamber bless, Through this palace, with sweet peace; E’er sha ll it in safety rest, And the owner of it blest. Trip away: Make no stay : Meet me all by break of day! “The sentiment of a difficult play such as A Midsummer Night’s Dream, so far as it can be summed up at all, can be s ummed up in one sentence. It is the mysticism of happiness. That is to say it is the conception that as man lives upon a borderland he may find him self in the spiritual or supernatural atmosphere, not only through being p rofoundly sad or meditative, but by being extravagantly happy. The soul mi ght be rapt out of the body in an agony of sorrow, or a trance of ecstasy; but it might also be rapt out of the body in a paroxysm of laughter.” at – July 31st – Montreal – August 1st, with Deedrah, Ticon, Astrix and many other local djs. web techsafari.ca/ August -August 3rd – THIS WEE K ONLY GOA TRASH IS ON TUESDAY GoaTrash2.0 Downstairs at Karma, 51 1st Ave b/w 3rd & 4th 10pm-4am, free, ID 21+ DJ Yani TBA /g oatrash2.gif /goatrash2back.gif -August 7th- Saturda y – The d Goa Boston event in NYC is finally confirmed: Teaser flyer http :///goabostonpartyflyer.gif (Page will be updated wit h new date etc) The long awaited date for the Goa Boston party is now set f or Saturday August 7 at the private co-operative SETTIng space at 55 Lex i n Brooklyn. The neighbors are warned, our neural synapses are at the read y. It’s going to be a most excellent showcase for the Boston trance people, I’m going to pull out all the stops to get as many New Yorkers as possibl e to fill the sizable space. Discounts will be given to Bostonians who mak e it down. Also I’m trying to hook up a charter bus from Fung Wah so you can have a dj entertain you on the way down. Flyers will be up there in a couple of weeks, we also will have a another command live performance from Jay Indigom (D-Space Studios/Alpha Channel/M-field). Lauryn, Dino and Bi nary are already confirmed, and hopefully Goldilocks and Ammon EP are down to be down. There will be plenty of time for everyone to play, any djs f rom the new england area email dino. And Bob the Ziatrance wizard is goin g to do tapestry art. If there are any weird crazy Boston artists that we c an wrap this event around, please notify me and/or Dino. Fire is out b/c we’re indoors but what i’d love would be for example some weird MIT cyborg s with their battlebots. or somthing. And maybe fluorescent blue blood. Dino (Changmian) Perhaps the most experienced and influential member of the Boston psy-trance community, Dean began holding successful weeklies and a ll night beach gatherings as early as 1998. It was that year when he and l ong time friend Dave West founded Changmian Productions; thus putting Bost on on the national “trance-map”. After three years of successful trance w eeklies, Changmian decided to shift gears in the fall of 2000 and dedicate itself to propagating only the psychedelic sound. A few months later, “Sa msara,”Boston’s first ever all psy-trance weekly, was started at a local ba r in Cambridge. After Samsara ended, Dino joined forces with Dave Henshaw and Mathwin to launch Boston’s second all psy-trance weekly, “Anitya”. T he storied two year history of this event made Boston synonymous with psy- trance. Over the years Dino has become known for his melodic and groovy fu ll-on psy-trance sound. His sets usually don’t exceed 136 BPM, giving the music space to breathe, while allowing the listener to hear and feel every nuance. Dino’s diversity has become one of his finest attributes as a DJ. Whether it be full-on, progressive, chill out, or atmospheric drum & bassDean’s passion for music knows no limits… Dave Henshaw (Changmian) A p rogressive and hard-trance DJ in his earlier years, Dave wasn’t introduced to the psychedelic sound until he spent 1998 living in Cape Town, South A frica. His first interactions with the sound were relatively indifferent an d it wasn’t until his introduction to Dino in the fall fo 2000 that he was able to appreciate how beautiful, malleable, and adaptive the psychedelic sound could be. It was albums like Atmos’s “Headcleaner,” Vibrasphere’s ” Echo,” and XV Kilist’s self-titled full-length that enamored Dave to no en d. He immediately joined Changmian Productions and began working at “Samsa ra.” After that weekly ended, he teamed up with Dino and Mathwin to start “Anitya” – Boston’s storied two-year all-psy-trance weekly. To this day, ( aside from writing long winded party reviews and babbling on the lists all the time) Dave continues to refine his musical tastes and DJ skills in or der to show how “progressive” and “psychedelic” music can unify, harmonize and elevate parties to new heights. Primarily into the “Scandinavian sou nd” from labels like Iboga, Digital Structures, and Interzone; Dave has be en lucky enough to share the stage with many of the DJ’s and artists he re spects the most. Expect a very groovy, very danceable, and very ear-friend ly set from Boston’s propagator of the progressive psychedelic sound. La uryn (Sonic Beating) Lauryn’s humble beginnings date back to 1998 when she was single-handedly throwing parties and producing her own all-trance radi o show while a student at Hamilton College in upstate New York. A chance e ncounter with Ammon EP at Satellite Records opened her door into the psych edelic world and Lauryn has since, never looked back. Starting in the wint er of 2002, Lauryn has played amazing sets at Boston’s prestiguious psy-we ekly, “Anitya”, has served (and continues to serve) as a resident of Sonic Beating’s monthly “Psyforia”, and has played multiple one-offs from Maine to Providence to New York and New Jersey. Still involved in a weekly radi o show out of Tufts University, Lauryn is consistently honing and fine-tun ing the already impeccable DJ skills that have made her a Boston crowd-ple aser. Though best known for blowing up dancefloors with her South African influenced dark funky full on sounds from the likes of Wizzy Noise, Altom, Rinkadink, and Damage, Lauryn has also been exploring the gentler side of the psychedelic sound. Her latest mix-CD, “Sub-Liminal” shows this, feat uring tracks by Antix, Frogacult, Bitmonx and others. Binary (Sonic Beatin g) Before anyone even heard the name “Binary” in Boston, the man behind tha t name was busy producing “Free Update,” an all-psy-trance radio program o n a local college station. After honing his skills in the isolated studio, Binary broke into the public eye with two ear-popping sets at Boston’s lo ng-standing psy-weekly, “Anitya.” From there, he never looked back. Though “Free Update” remains a fixture in Boston radio, Binary has branched out into a highly skilled and versatile DJ (joined Anitya’s residency in Septe mber 2003,) a crafty and intelligent sound engineer, and the founder of hi s own production company – “Sonic Beating Productions.” Currently serving as the resident of his monthly brainchild, “Psyforia;” Binary has played t o packed dancefloors all over the Eastern United States – most notably at last year’s Omni-Dance, where he delivered a full-on set that tossed and c rushed the outdoor audience. Though his versatility and musical library h ave grown exponentially over the course of the last few years, Binary is m ost known for his powerful, intense, and at times overwhelming full-on tra nce. When Binary gets behind the system, you know you’re in for a good set . PLUS: Goldilocks TBA Live Morning set by Jay Indigom (D-Space Studios/Al pha Channel/M-field) Jay is back Alpha Channel/M-field 100% LIVE (the who le thing!) (Soular Records, CT) Fresh from a widely lauded performance at the Heaven & Earth Center in February and d’s Full Moon celebration a t SETTIng in May, J will project up tempo trance from “Alpha Channel” (J’s solo project-2003) and the newly formed “M-field” project (J and Rob’s co llaboration material-2004) followed by an hour of down-tempo chillout musi c accompanied by live acoustic and electronic instruments. So unhinge your mind and body to two hours of a trance journey that takes you from the me tamagic of up-tempo night music which will meld semi-transparently into pr ogressive-styled morning trance as the sun rises to finally leave you floa ting freely upon the waves of a premier chillout performance. Fluro Roboti c Art and Installations by Bob (Ziatrance) His robot can kick your robot’s ass (By Dave Hanshaw) Growing up in the sands of New Mexico, Bob now makes his home in the peaceful confines of Boston. Known primarily for his inte rnet radio station, Zia-Trance; Bob made a massive splash into Beantown’s visual scene this past winter at Psyforia, the city’s long-standing monthl y party. An astonishing display of handmade iconographic flourescent tapes tries lit up the dancefloor as Blue Spectral Monkey poured mayhem through the Sonic Beating Sound Pump. Ears and eyes were united in blissful indulg ence! From there, Bob moved onto showing three-dimensional pieces motorize d pieces, and was quickly named Psyforia’s resident deco artist. Soon afte r, he did installations at both installments of Boston’s “Central Psy,” an d then another in the 2004 Omni-Dance Pavillion. Production increased and public interest in his work followed suit. His use of light, motors, moti on, and mechanical devices set his work apart from those focused on statio nary installations. His creativity, versatility, and insatiable desire for intensity always inspire those who view his pieces. Tonite, we welcome Bo ston’s Visual Brahman to New York for another eye-popping psychedemechanic al visual installation! Studio 55 (i.e. home of Cata, Evan, Raffi, Zhenya a nd Kenya) has been renovated repainted and refurnished and may heretofore be referred to as “S.E.T.T.ING”. The gathering on friday is intended to be a reaction to the full moon, a congregation of deemsters, a chance to h ear psy trance on a top notch sound system, and, very specifically, to coo peratively create a safe, clean and sacred environment, so that future ave nues for love and entheospace may present themselves to us. Please rememb er that the S.E.T.T.ING is a home for 5 people, so we implore you to help us keep it a clean home: please dispose butts in ashtrays, respect people’ s personal belongings and artwork, respect women and children, respect and beware of the fact that ds and alcohol have the power to severely fuck you up and turn you into a babbling morron with rude behavior. Extra way s to help create the S.E.T.T.ING include bringing art, deco, party supplie s, fluoro-materials, food drink, plants or flowers. and the afterparty..

Right, that is, if you like your Trance tracks like a tidal wave, like a werewolfs howl, l ike a sandblaster busting open your third eye. As he comes across quiet an d somewhat reserved in person, one would not, at first, realize that Kri i s on a mission, a serious quest to bring Psychedelic Trance music to the p eople, and to bring the people to a state of enlightenment in the process. Caught up in the party scene of the 90s and gaining a reputation for his skills in mixing breakbeat and scratching, Kri left it all behind to pursu e full-time the haunting promise Goa trance laid out for him. Now, he has single handedly created a devout Trance family in a tiny, southern town th at had previously never heard of any such thing, orchestrating parties and gatherings whose emphasis is holistic, about the music and the magic, nev er getting lost in the hype or the egocentrism of the business. Starting t o build a body of his own compositions, edgy pieces demanding the listener to recognize Trances primal roots, Kri is showing himself as an incredibl y dedicated Goa Trance musician and dj. More and more, his skills are being sought after in places all over the country, and I will venture a reason why. To listen to Kri play is to remember our legacy as spiritual beings w ith tumultuous desires, with an innate need to pound our feet into the Ear th to raise our prayers to the heavens…on the dance floor that translate s to his creating all-consuming, orgiastic rituals of dance where he pushe s you past your limits to a place beyond a good party or a great time, but to a place where you can capture a glimpse of a future in which the prima l and the technological fuse to bring us a passionate and fulfilling exist ence on a planet that survives. Heavy? Yeah, but so is the Psychedelic Goa Trance experience, and heavier still is a night filled with Kris dark, dr iving tracks, his momentum slowly building like a panthers body tensing ea ch muscle till its time to strike its prey, and then, youre a goner. Kri f irst played in New York at an outdoor festival by the d and most recentl y in Jersey City for Omnitribe.

I would like to share with you the long and ri diculous story of this drama because we believe that honesty is our #1 pri ority and also our top virtue. So here goes: The booking process started b ack in late March into early April 2004. At that time Rinkadink did not ha ve a visa to enter the US. We started the process giving us about 5 months +/- to complete it. After working closely with Shane Gobi (Alchemy Label Manager) and Sophie of Alchemy, along with Vana himself. We setup his inte rview for a tourist visa… As this was denied, We staright away went for an artist visa classification. Everyone at Alchemy worked overtime and muc h information was transmitted between the 2 bodies. I have paid here 100$ for his Artist Visa application and $400 to lawyers (who owed me a favour or it would have been much more) that effectivly sped up the process of hi s handling. With all this going on, we were still unable to prove to the U S Government that Vana will not stay more then 3 days here and that his in terest is not to work illegally in some deli in new york or plant bombs so mewhere… excuse my sarcasm, but this is their general point of view since 9/11/2001. We are truly dissapointed as it would take 4 months to have R inkadink even be qualified to re-try his application. We have exhausted al l the options, and smuggling him in a trunk from Canada was also brought u p and quickly dismissed. We realize that people were waiting for him to make his mark on NYC, but at this time it is out of our hands. We do not i ntend to leave a hole in the lineup so with no further delay, we are proud to present: *** JOTI SIDHU AKA PSYCHAOS – LIVE! *** Joti is one of the p ioneers of trance and is soon coming out with a new Psychaos album. I wou ld to personally thank Shane Gobi of Alchemy Records for seriously dealing with this bullshit on a daily basis for the past 5 months. Show must go o n. Here is a message from Mr. Shane Gobi – Alchemy Records Manager: “hI F irstly i would like to apologise for rinkadinks show been canseled, as much as vana would have loved to come, its been an impossible task, so much ti me and energy wasted in trying to make this happen, but it was not meant t o be, Alchemy Records would like to thank Gadi for all his time and effort over the last five months, and we would like to wish him all the best wit h this event, ………… with Joti at hand, im sure its going to be no p roblem All the best Alchemy Records crew” for more disussion read here: forum.isratrance/viewtopic.php/topic/35597/forum/28 -gadi at ecli ptic-trance Z September 22 12:30pm Autumnal Equinox -Saturday September 2 5th – d with the New Jersey crew & bcameron Born and raised in the *lush forests* of north jersey, brandon is back from the icy puritan clutches of western mass. and poised to humbly deliver a smashing set of fresh psyche delic tranceE280A6underneath his waspy exterior is a core of understand ing, appreciation, and curiosity, fueled by early travels to india, east a sia, and europeE280A6this experience manifests itself in his deep and c ontemplative – gentle yet powerful sets that explore the polar extremes of human emotion, and blur the line between progressive and full-on tranceE2 80A6fused together by precise mixing, expect to hear anything from minil ogue to azax syndrome, but likely more of a happy mediumE280A6this may be jerseys best kept secret Z Tuesday morning September 28th 7:09 am Full Moon M October 22 – Friday – Timothy Leary’s Birthday October Z We dnesday morning October 27th 10:08 am Full Moon ZOctober 28th – Full Moon L unar Eclipse November e November 17th – Wednesday – Terence McKenna’s Birt hday ZFriday afternoon November 26th 3:08 pm Full Moon December ZDecember 21 7:42am Winter Solstice MFriday December 25th – Christmas ZSaturday morni ng December 26th 10:07 am Full Moon e January 11th Albert Hoffman’s Birthd ay LEGEND (only visible in HTML email) – Full-On, Goa Trance, Psy-Tra nce, and Butt Rock Goa at PsyTekk AKA progressive/minimal { Chill/Ambient/Do wntempo/Kirtan J Outdoors -Benefit Q Out of town (Outside tristate New York metro area; Only included for major acts) Z Full Moons/Meteor Showers M W eird/Unusual/Holiday N Industrial, “Psy”DM e Birthday i Burning Man type ev ents at Psychedelic Art Events a Abundant female energy, i.e. a social scene not just a rave crackhouse SOUND RATINGS (if known & determined; loude r isn’t always better; 10 watts per person) XXX Large, i.e. Phason/full cl ub system, at least 4000 watts XX Medium, i.e. Subwoofers and/or at least 4 speakers, 1000-4000 watts X Small, i.e. 2 Mackie 450’s on stands, under 10 00 watts No symbols – TBD (organizers: send me your brand name & watts) – The United Altered States of Trance by Discla imer: The author resides in New York and is a shameless Elf promoter of th at metropolis. With assistance from luke at goaheadproductions and Cap’n Crunch and Andrew Fusco in San Francisco In general, the U.S. joins China and the African continent as the backwater for psychedelic trance. It pa les in comparison to what’s happening right now in Mexico; indeed the bigg est thrill is doing trance – and thriving – within the cracks of what some call a fascist state. First the good news. After recovering from the d emise of consummate megapromoter Synthetic Sadhus in 2003, 2004 is easily the best year for trance on the East Coast since 2000-2001. And that’s wi th a general post-9/11 restriction on many travellers and artists entering the country. New York is currently resurgent with open air festivals almo st every weekend competing with occasional megaclub appearances by Yahel a nd Infected Mushroom – and a myriad of events by Ecliptic Trance and Allad in project in between. Tsunami is taking a breather before relaunching wi th Hallucinogen at I.R.A. fronted club Spirit in September. A steady stre am of small free parties throughout the week keeps everyone connected, and there are several trance coops such as 55 Lex that recall the heyday of C CC in San Francisco. New York’s undergound scene has resurrected with the Devotional Ministry of Trance doing Full Moon parties under a bridge in th e ghetto under full knowledge of local police with 200-300 attendees with a DJ crew from a different city playing each lunar month – Pittsburgh, Phi ladelphia, Boston, Ohio – with live rituals such as fire and live chest hoo k suspensions. (see photos) Progressive impresario Gavin of Spectra Gavin is in Sweden taking the summer off and helping Peter Digital with his stu dio. Boston continues to host a fairly packed schedule of early evening e vents. Large festivals this summer include Gaian Mind in West Virginia, Om nifest in upstate New York and Neptunalia in North Carolina. The Home of Trance store in New York is sadly closing to make room for an Israeli groc ery store, with trance CDs in the back. Now the bad news. The fabled Wes t Coast psy-trance scene is mixed. In the north, the Bay Area scene has b een floundering of late, with the frequency of events plummeting. For exa mple, Thump – the only monthly at a “legitimate” club – cancelled last mon th. The fabled CCC house has dispersed, and people are still picking up t he pieces. Burning Man is the event of the year, but it’s not a psy-tranc e only event, and as it’s grown the psy-trance influence has been watered down. Aaron Ocelot from Chaishop just released his new CD “Psychotria Vir idis.” In Los Angeles, PsyTribe celebrated its 7th anniversary. Apollo’s Lute is very active in Oregon with the Enosa festival the big news of the summer. The U.S. midwest psy-scene has traditionally been a backwater nest led between the two coasts. But this year it has shown growth this past y ear with pockets of trance heads coming together from Chicago (touchsamadh i) to Cleveland (Goahead) to Columbus (Cosmic traveler) to Pittsburgh (Sid etrakkt) to Wisonsin (Audiognomes). People have been willing to travel fro m state to state – Goahead brought out Magnetrixx in April and that was ve ry well recieved. HOW TO PROTECT YOURSELF AGAINST CORRUPT POLICE OFFICERS ! Description Category: Police and Law Enforcement A true concern over Pol ice Gangsters, Police Misbehavior, and Pistol Whipping. Police Intimidation Targeting, Bullying and even False, Fabricated Arrests. Reports from loca l small townships primarily. BAD COPS NO DONUTS! Group Just Getting Organ ized. Pending ACLU connection and Law Assistance provided by ACLU defense a ttorneys HUMAN RIGHTS ABUSE ACTIVIST Mark Gaines MS BSN RN RRT HOW TO PROT ECT YOURSELF AGAINST CORRUPT POLICE OFFICERS! I used to believe that most of the police I meet are just like the rest of us. A growing number are not ! But many still are. They want to get home in one piece and not deal with trouble. They are decent human beings who will try hard to do an honest job for everyone they deal with. They are the front line soldiers in the war a gainst crime. They are there to protect the honest guy. They are honest, ed ucated and out numbered, needing the support of the honest citizen. Their t hankless job is to protect us against those who do evil. They have likewise been hampered by the actions of corrupt police. The best first line of de fense is to be honest yourself. If someone is out there driving while under the influence of ds, having illegal ds in their possession or are st ealing, they are assaulting the rights of their fellow citizen. They deserv e to get caught and punished. This kind of person is wrecking society for e veryone. Like any occupation there are a certain number of individuals who are misfits, and do irreparable harm to any profession they enter. They ar e the bottom 5% of the work force. I well remember from my own early days w hen I started as a reserve police officer, being told that anyone in law en forcement must have absolute integrity as a pre- requisite. I observed firs t hand how a few cops start out bad, while some unfortunately turn bad. The level of violence, social isolation, temptations from exposure to large am ounts of cash and ds, and other factors can all serve to ruin a good cop . The end result is the same; the individual becomes a greater danger to so ciety than most criminals; a predator. The difference being one gets a uni form, complete with a gun and tax payer supported license to kill. The bad cop becomes a dangerous predator. Recent cases of Chicago police officers i s a sad . The disease has spread to the federal level as witnessed by the recent FBI cases in Ruby Ridge, not to mention the destruction of th e reputation of Mr. Richard Jewel in Atlanta. We also had the BATF raid in Waco. I learned a lot of what I am sharing from having worked on the inside and having experienced two false arrest attempts and police harassment as a victim. My experience as a victim of police abuse indicates it has beco me necessary to pass along some survival tips to deal with the bad cops as you really don’t know what you are dealing with most of the time. The bad c ops have cast warranted suspicion on all cops. This means federal, state an d local law enforcement. Citizen rights come first. The government is not m eant to be a terror to the innocent, only the guilty. That is the U.S. Cons titution in action. Bad cops overstep the bounds of legitimate authority, a nd are criminals. I have received a lot of messages requesting personal ad vice for individual situations. Since my resources do not allow me to opera te a legal clinic, I included a link to The National Complaint Center at th e bottom of this site. I am heavy involved in health care reform, taking a n intense amount of time and effort on my part. Thank you in advance for yo ur understanding. TREAT THE COP LIKE YOU WANT TO BE TREATED YOURSELF When stopped or you encounter a police officer, be polite and civil. Ask what th e problem is. You don’t want to batter a good cop! By avoiding adversarial relationships further problems are avoided before needless issues are raise d. If you are adversarial with a bad cop you might end up in the hospital, charged with resisting arrest, if you live! Be careful As bad cops are con trol freaks and will use even an accidental “bumping up against” you as an excuse to charge you with assault on a police officer and resisting arrest, as well as justification for the use of force. Be careful and keep your ha nds in view at all times, telling the cop you are going to reach into your pockets for your license, as you might risk getting shot. Avoid any sudden moves with your hands for the same reason and remain calm as being agitated will cause some cops to arrest you for interfering or worse. Be cool and c areful! MOTOR VEHICLE AND STREET STOPS If driving, provide your drivers li cense, registration and insurance card in a motor vehicle stop. Your ID is no longer your private right under some conditions, as cops have gotten law s passed in some states that allow them to check the ID’s of innocent passe ngers, often used abusively by some departments. Openly state several; time s “I don’t consent to any search of this vehicle or myself,” if they attemp t to search. State you are being detained against your will as well. Make s ure witnesses hear you say these things. The officer must have your permiss ion to check your ID in many cases unless you are being arrested or tickete d. Once the police get your ID they can and will run a warrant check. If an error in the computer system brings up a warrant or ticket expect to be ar rested. If you are walking down the street you might decide to give your na me to the officer, but don’t volunteer anything else. Ask what the problem is. The officer must truthfully state the reason for the stop. A failure t o do so is a violation of the rights of everyone in the involved, and can c onstitute possible grounds for a claim of false arrest. You may be asked to step out of the vehicle, searched and cuffed only if the officer has legit imate grounds, not because of some fabrication. Some corrupt officers plant ds and other “evidence” during this time, steal your valuables and dest roy your drivers license, so be aware of these possibilities. If the cop i nsists on a search hand him the keys and repeat that the detention and sear ch are without your consent. This will cause much evidence to be thrown out in court in many cases. The cop can’t search your pockets unless they have truthful cause to suspect a weapon. Even a pat down search can open a cop up to charges. Never consent to a search but state openly “This search is w ithout my consent.” Abuse of minorities remains common with corrupt office rs, although much improved compared to just a decade ago . Your vehicle can only be searched with your permission unless a legitimate arrest is being made, actual probable cause exists, or legitimate evidence of illegal activ ity is in plain sight. Any illegal search can make the officer liable under state and federal laws for serious legal action. Any evidence is most like ly inadmissible in court as well. Consult an attorney right away if you, or your vehicle searched, or your ID checked under any unusual circumstances. As of 1 October 1999, racial profile stops are illegal in Connecticut. No rth Carolina has a similar law on the books. If you are stopped, and this l aw was violated, the officer can be arrested. Your best defense is to have witnesses with you in case a “plant” is attempted. You do not have to tell the officer your private business for being out in any public area. That i s your legal right. The most you should tell any officer is the fact you we re on your way to the pharmacy or the like, if you choose. Beyond that sile nce is golden. The officers might attempt to separate your party to get som eone to talk. Again silence is golden. Don’t give a crooked cop an break. T he cop must prove himself to you to gain your cooperation. In this regard y ou are in command, not the cop. The cop is under limits of authority; compe l the officer to earn your trust and obey the law. Be advised that many of ficers now have cameras installed in their cars which record on video tape, complete with sound. Don’t try to get cute! If you play your cards right, the tape can serve as your evidence against a crooked cop. Since the motor vehicle stop is full of high risk for injury to the officer, never use foror threats, even if you are right and the cop is clearly abusive! This w ill most likely place you at high risk to be shot or serious injured, or fa lsely arrested! The use of fatal force against a police officer is legal fo r excessive force or false arrest, but you must be able to prove it. It is generally ill advised, unless the cop is intent on killing you at which poi nt you have nothing left to loose. There has been an increase of police use of unwarranted fatal force with obvious lack of action against bad cops, i n recent years here in the USA. Bad cops cover for each other, so stay aliv e to testify. The wrongful touching or misuse of force is a crime for which you can later prosecute. There is nothing a cop fears more than criminal o r civil litigation. In the long run it is your best defense, although slow. If filed correctly, the career of the bad cop is in extreme jeopardy! ON YOUR PROPERTY Your property is your castle. The police can only enter with out your permission with a valid arrest warrant, valid search warrant, or i n certain emergencies such as hot pursuit with legitimate probable cause. O therwise the police are trespassers. If the cops enter your property for an y reason, call your lawyer. File for the arrest of the violators. Don’t giv e permission for anything. Some cops will try to pressure you telling you s ubtle things that make you think you are a “prime suspect,” and ask you to sign a “waiver” for permission to search. Once you have signed they will th en tell you the technical warning you have the right to “refuse.” Just don’ t sign anything without a lawyer present. If a cop comes to your door step outside and lock the door behind you. Don’t let a cop in as this can leave you open to having your house searched without your consent. Openly state “I do not consent to you entering or searching my house,” with witnesses pr esent. If they are going to arrest you step outside as the police generally can’t search any area you have not been in. If the cops order you to open the door comply while stating the entry and search is without your consent. If they claim to have a search warrant demand to see it. Make sure they t hey have the correct address, apartment number and name. Check the date of the warrant as most states only allow the warrant to be served within a few weeks, An increasing number of abusive police criminals are entering priv ate property without consent by falsifying “probable cause.” For example th ere have been telephone switch errors in the High Point and Greensboro Nort h Carolina area, resulting in spurious 911 calls. The Guilford County Sheri ff and other police agencies have made it policy to require the house be se arched, even if the owner or occupants object. Legal action can and should be taken including the arrest of the police involved. POLICE WEAPONS USE I n spite of court rulings the drawing of any deadly weapon is prohibited in all but legitimate emergencies. If you have a weapon pulled on you consult an attorney to file assault with deadly weapons charges. Don’t invite disas ter as any cop is under tremendous stress and might use the weapon in error . You might be right, but dead. A bad cop will have others “cover up” as we ll Be very careful as there is an alarming number of fatal shootings by rog ue officers in places including our nations capitol. Many are unarmed, inno cent citizens, and the damage lawsuits are growing, along with the awards a nd settlements. Even if you do everything legally, you might still be murd ered by police, such as recently happened in Hartford and New Milford CT, o r New York City. Some cops are out of control or psychologically unstable s o be careful. BEING QUESTIONED It is always your right to demand the ident ification of any officer. There has been a real problem with police imperso nators such as blue light rapists! You should only stop for a marked unit a nd uniformed officer. If any doubt exists, especially for women at night us e your cellular phone to call the real police and call for help. Go to a kn own police station, even if in another town. A honest cop will understand. No charges may legally filed if you exercise this right. Take note of the d riving habits the cop practices to press charges against the cops for any r eckless driving while going to a police station. Consult an attorney. Call someone on the cellular phone before opening up for police as well. Becaus e of the increasing incidents of police abuse you are well advised to avoid casual conversation with any law enforcement officer in many areas. Ask th e cop if you are free to leave, and walk away. If the cop says no, tell the cop you wish to have a lawyer present and any search or detention is witho ut your consent. Say this several times so witnesses can hear you. Walk awa y if you are not being detained and keep going. Teach your children that th e cops are not always their friends, and the cop must contact the parent fo r permission to ask questions. In the case of plain clothes officers deman d their identification. Wait until uniformed police arrive if you can. Neve r open up your car to anyone unless you are sure they are real cops. Copy d own the name and badge number of any cop you encounter. If in doubt, call t he agency or state police to verify their status. Again an honest cop will understand and comply. They are just as concerned with police impersonators as you are, if not more so. Talking to the police is your decision, not t heir right. The police must respect your decision on this matter and are fo rbidden by law to coerce you. Again silence is golden if you even suspect t here is the possibility you are a suspect. Get a lawyer and keep quiet. Aga in, an honest cop will understand and respect your rights. Be polite, civil and silent! Bad cops will use all sorts of tricks so it is best to have a lawyer if you can get one! Remember, it is now LEGAL for cops to lie and u se deceit, which is a moral fashion statement on the sad state of police et hics, too often an oxymoron. Too many cops will lie and try to put people i nto a panic, just get people to talk. Silence is golden. Above all never li e to a cop as they will use even an innocent lie to set up as “guilty.” Hol yoke Police in Massachusetts did this to Wayne Healy years ago, and he is s till serving time as an innocent man. If you are calling for service as a crime victim exercise some caution as well. Some cops treat everyone includ ing obvious innocent victims as suspects, attempting to force the innocent suspect to “prove themselves” to their satisfaction. You might find yoursel f falsely arrested and victimized twice. Witness the Bostik case in Philade lphia. Some criminals attempt to pass themselves off as “victims,” lying to evade lawful arrest, hurting the honest citizen. Try to understand the pos ition the good cop is in. At the same time you don’t have to tolerate any p olice abuse, in which case you should file a complaint and get legal counse l. The cops are there to serve you so demand you be served and not harassed . Witnesses again are a big defense. A case in Torrington, Connecticut res ulted in a couple being wrongfully arrested on the basis of perjured testim ony. As a result the couple was wrongly charged of attempting to sell their baby. The Connecticut State Department Of Child and Youth Services took th eir baby away, and was able to persuade a court to permanently take away th eir parental rights. Even after the court found both parents not guilty, th e state refuses to return the child, fighting hearings lead by Chief State’ s Attorney Bailey. Had the Torrington Police Department done their job righ t the first time, a family tragedy could have been avoided. If you check th e record, this department was under federal investigation some years ago lo ng with Waterbury and New Britain Police Departments. This is not a new pro blem in Torrington. If a detective approaches you be aware they “fish” to try to shake out who they think is guilty. A common approach is to tell you “We know that…..” to try to make you talk, when they really don’t know a nything. Some will try to move in on your physical space to make you uncomf ortable. Order the offender to move away as this is a criminal offense know n as assault. Unfortunately some detectives treat everyone like a suspect. They will move in on personal space and sometimes even touch your body to d isplay power. Since it is illegal for anyone to touch you like this, polite ly direct the offender to cease, as this is criminal assault by a police of ficer. Advise the officer/offender that you are filing charges of assault a nd battery. Be cool and calm, while considering if you wish to place the po lice violator

First, rehearse your song by rote, To each word a warbling note; Hand in hand, with fairy grace, Will we s ing, and bless this place. Now, until the break of day, Through this hous e each fairy stray, To the best bride-bed will we, Which by us shall bles sed be; And the issue there create Ever shall be fortunate. So shall all the couples three Ever true in loving be; And the blots of Nature’s hand Shall not in their issue stand: Never mole, hare-lip, nor scar, Nor mar k prodigious, such as are Despised in nativity, Shall upon their children be.E28094 With this field-dew consecrate, Every fairy take his gate; And each several chamber bless, Through this palace, with sweet peace; E ‘er shall it in safety rest, And the owner of it blest. Trip away: Make no stay: Meet me all by break of day! “The sentiment of a difficult play such as A Midsummer Night’s Dream, so far as it can be summed up at all, c an be summed up in one sentence. It is the mysticism of happiness. That is to say, it is the conception that as man lives upon a borderland he may f ind himself in the spiritual or supernatural atmosphere, not only through being profoundly sad or meditative, but by being extravagantly happy. The soul might be rapt out of the body in an agony of sorrow, or a trance of e cstasy; but it might also be rapt out of the body in a paroxysm of laughte r.” at – July 31st – Montreal – August 1st, with Deedrah, Ticon, Astrix and many other local djs. web techsafari.ca/ August -August 3rd – T HIS WEEK ONLY GOA TRASH IS ON TUESDAY GoaTrash2.0 Downstairs at Karma, 51 1 st Ave b/w 3rd & 4th 10pm-4am, free, ID 21+ DJ Yani TBA web brainmachine s/goatrash2.gif /goatrash2back.gif -August 6th- Friday – 10pm-10am BOSTON BRAHMANS INVADE NEW YORK The d Goa Boston event in NYC is finally confirmed and here is the flyer online web brainmachin es/goabostonparty.gif /goabostonpartyback.gif $20 donation, $10 for Bostonians.

Lauryn (Sonic Beating) Lauryn’s humb le beginnings date back to 1998 when she was single-handedly throwing part ies and producing her own all-trance radio show while a student at Hamilto n College in upstate New York. A chance encounter with Ammon EP at Satelli te Records opened her door into the psychedelic world and Lauryn has since, never looked back. Starting in the winter of 2002, Lauryn has played amaz ing sets at Boston’s prestiguious psy-weekly, “Anitya”, has served (and co ntinues to serve) as a resident of Sonic Beating’s monthly “Psyforia”, and has played multiple one-offs from Maine to Providence to New York and New Jersey. Still involved in a weekly radio show out of Tufts University, La uryn is consistently honing and fine-tuning the already impeccable DJ skil ls that have made her a Boston crowd-pleaser. Though best known for blowin g up dancefloors with her South African influenced dark funky full on soun ds from the likes of Wizzy Noise, Altom, Rinkadink, and Damage, Lauryn has also been exploring the gentler side of the psychedelic sound. Her lates t mix-CD, “Sub-Liminal” shows this, featuring tracks by Antix, Frogacult, Bitmonx and others. Dave Henshaw (Changmian) A progressive and hard-tranc e DJ in his earlier years, Dave wasn’t introduced to the psychedelic sound until he spent 1998 living in Cape Town, South Africa. His first interact ions with the sound were relatively indifferent and it wasn’t until his in troduction to Dino in the fall fo 2000 that he was able to appreciate how beautiful, malleable, and adaptive the psychedelic sound could be. It was albums like Atmos’s “Headcleaner,” Vibrasphere’s “Echo,” and XV Kilist’s s elf-titled full-length that enamored Dave to no end. He immediately joined Changmian Productions and began working at “Samsara.” After that weekly e nded, he teamed up with Dino and Mathwin to start “Anitya” – Boston’s stori ed two-year all-psy-trance weekly. To this day, (aside from writing long w inded party reviews and babbling on the lists all the time) Dave continues to refine his musical tastes and DJ skills in order to show how “progress ive” and “psychedelic” music can unify, harmonize, and elevate parties to new heights. Primarily into the “Scandinavian sound” from labels like Ibog a, Digital Structures, and Interzone; Dave has been lucky enough to share the stage with many of the DJ’s and artists he respects the most. Expect a very groovy, very danceable, and very ear-friendly set from Boston’s prop agator of the progressive psychedelic sound. Winslow (Changmian/SonicBe ating) After spending much of his earlier years spinning Dancehall Raggae, Winslow made the shift to psy-trance in early 2001. An introduction to Bo ston’s then-established weekly, Samsara,” coupled with trips to Spectra pa rties in New York made for Winslow’s perfect transition into psy-trance. P laying at numerous Boston parties since then – including Changmain’s fable d “beach parties” – Jake has proven that whether it be Dancehall or psy-tr ance – he’s got the skills! With musical tastes ranging from Phony Orphant s to Safi Connection, Jake never fails to impress crowds with his versatil ity, mixing ability, and track selection. Tonite, be prepared to hear some late-night full-on psy that’ll make you realize that Boston talent does in deed exist outside Fenway park! Dave Dittmer (Changmian/SonicBeating) Bo ston. One of Boston’s most experienced, yet little known psy-trance DJs; D ave made an impressive Boston resurfacing in 2003. Previously a mysterious and enigmatic character, Dave played sporadic gigs everywhere from Bosto n’s “Anitya” to an Omni-Tribe Party featuring Noma in New York City. This past year, however, was different. A new affiliation with Sonic Beating p lus a steady flow of gigs has equalled multitudes of happy dancefloors and stomping feet.Though it’s always been there, crowds of people are now get ting to finally experience Dave’s passion and energy! His mixing is precis ion-oriented. His programming is razor sharp. And his ability to procure th e best tracks is uncanny. Tonite, be prepared to hear Dave Dittmer as he w as meant to be heard: over a big sound system and in front of a big audien ce. Binary (Sonic Beating) Before anyone even heard the name “Binary” in Boston, the man behind that name was busy producing “Free Update,” an all- psy-trance radio program on a local college station. After honing his skil ls in the isolated studio, Binary broke into the public eye with two ear-p opping sets at Boston’s long-standing psy-weekly, “Anitya.” From there, he never looked back. Though “Free Update” remains a fixture in Boston radio Binary has branched out into a highly skilled and versatile DJ (joined A nitya’s residency in September 2003,) a crafty and intelligent sound engin eer, and the founder of his own production company – “Sonic Beating Produc tions.” Currently serving as the resident of his monthly brainchild, “Psyf oria;” Binary has played to packed dancefloors all over the Eastern United States – most notably at last year’s Omni-Dance, where he delivered a ful l-on set that tossed and crushed the outdoor audience. Though his versati lity and musical library have grown exponentially over the course of the la st few years, Binary is most known for his powerful, intense, and at times overwhelming full-on trance. When Binary gets behind the system, you know you’re in for a good set. Dino (Changmian) Perhaps the most experienced and influential member of the Boston psy-trance community, Dean began hol ding successful weeklies and all night beach gatherings as early as 1998. It was that year when he and long time friend Dave West founded Changmian Productions; thus putting Boston on the national “trance-map”. After thre e years of successful trance weeklies, Changmian decided to shift gears in the fall of 2000 and dedicate itself to propagating only the psychedelic sound. A few months later, “Samsara,”Boston’s first ever all psy-trance we ekly, was started at a local bar in Cambridge. After Samsara ended, Dino joined forces with Dave Henshaw and Mathwin to launch Boston’s second all psy-trance weekly, “Anitya”. The storied two year history of this event ma de Boston synonymous with psy-trance. Over the years Dino has become known for his melodic and groovy full-on psy-trance sound. His sets usually don ‘t exceed 136 BPM, giving the music space to breathe, while allowing the l istener to hear and feel every nuance. Dino’s diversity has become one of his finest attributes as a DJ. Whether it be full-on, progressive, chill o ut, or atmospheric drum & bass; Dean’s passion for music knows no limits.. . Goldilocks (Texaliens/Sonic Beating) Goldilocks is a recent addition to the Boston scene,hailing until recently from Austin, Texas [like dE2 8099s own Machinelf]. We’re not entirely sure what his name is all about but he assures us that his porridge is just right. Flavors include progr essive, third-wave, and grooving peak-time psy. Alpha Channel/M-field Li ve Morning set by Jay Indigom (D-Space Studios/Alpha Channel/M-field) Jay is back Alpha Channel/M-field 100% LIVE (the whole thing!) (Soular Records CT) Fresh from a widely lauded performance at the Heaven & Earth Cent er in February and d’s Full Moon celebration at 55 Lex in May, J will pr oject up tempo trance from “Alpha Channel” (J’s solo project-2003) and the newly formed “M-field” project (J and Rob’s collaboration material-2004) followed by an hour of down-tempo chillout music accompanied by live acous tic and electronic instruments. So unhinge your mind and body to two hours of a trance journey that takes you from the metamagic of up-tempo night m usic which will meld semi-transparently into progressive-styled morning tr ance as the sun rises to finally leave you floating freely upon the waves of a premier chillout performance. Fluoro Robotic Art and Installations b y Bob (Ziatrance) His robot can kick your robot’s ass (By Dave Henshaw) Gr owing up in the sands of New Mexico, Bob now makes his home in the peacefu l confines of Boston. Known primarily for his internet radio station, Zia- Trance; Bob made a massive splash into Beantown’s visual scene this past w inter at Psyforia, the city’s long-standing monthly party. An astonishing display of handmade iconographic flourescent tapestries lit up the dancefl oor as Blue Spectral Monkey poured mayhem through the Sonic Beating Sound Pump. Ears and eyes were united in blissful indulgence! From there, Bob mov ed onto showing three-dimensional pieces motorized pieces, and was quickly named Psyforia’s resident deco artist. Soon after, he did installations a t both installments of Boston’s “Central Psy,” and then another in the 200 4 Omni-Dance Pavillion. Production increased and public interest in his wo rk followed suit. His use of light, motors, motion, and mechanical device s set his work apart from those focused on stationary installations. His c reativity, versatility, and insatiable desire for intensity always inspire those who view his pieces. Tonite, we welcome Boston’s Visual Brahman to New York for another eye-popping psychedemechanical visual installation! 5 5 Lex (i.e. home of Cata, Evan, Raffi, Zhenya and Kenya) has been renovated repainted and refurnished. The gathering on friday is intended to be a c ongregation of deemsters, a chance to hear psy trance on a top notch soun d system, and, very specifically, to cooperatively create a safe, clean an d sacred environment, so that future avenues for love and entheospace may present themselves to us. Please remember that this is a home for 5 peopl e, so we implore you to help us keep it a clean home: please dispose butts in ashtrays, respect people’s personal belongings and artwork, respect wo men and children, respect and beware of the fact that ds and alcohol ha ve the power to severely fuck you up and turn you into a babbling morron w ith rude behavior. Extra ways to help create the space include bringing a rt, deco, party supplies, fluoro-materials, food drink, plants or flowers. and the afterparty!

Now, he has single handedly created a devout Trance family in a tiny southern town that had previously never heard of any such thing, orchest rating parties and gatherings whose emphasis is holistic, about the music a nd the magic, never getting lost in the hype or the egocentrism of the bus iness. Starting to build a body of his own compositions, edgy pieces deman ding the listener to recognize Trances primal roots, Kri is showing himsel f as an incredibly dedicated Goa Trance musician and dj. More and more, hi s skills are being sought after in places all over the country, and I will venture a reason why. To listen to Kri play is to remember our legacy as spiritual beings with tumultuous desires, with an innate need to pound our feet into the Earth to raise our prayers to the heavens…on the dance fl oor that translates to his creating all-consuming, orgiastic rituals of da nce where he pushes you past your limits to a place beyond a good party or a great time, but to a place where you can capture a glimpse of a future in which the primal and the technological fuse to bring us a passionate an d fulfilling existence on a planet that survives. Heavy? Yeah, but so is t he Psychedelic Goa Trance experience, and heavier still is a night filled with Kris dark, driving tracks, his momentum slowly building like a panthe rs body tensing each muscle till its time to strike its prey, and then, yo ure a goner. Kri first played in New York at an outdoor festival by the DM T and most recently in Jersey City for Omnitribe.

I would like to share with y ou the long and ridiculous story of this drama because we believe that hon esty is our #1 priority and also our top virtue. So here goes: The booking process started back in late March into early April 2004. At that time Ri nkadink did not have a visa to enter the US. We started the process giving us about 5 months +/- to complete it. After working closely with Shane Go bi (Alchemy Label Manager) and Sophie of Alchemy, along with Vana himself. We setup his interview for a tourist visa… As this was denied, We stari ght away went for an artist visa classification. Everyone at Alchemy worke d overtime and much information was transmitted between the 2 bodies. I hav e paid here 100$ for his Artist Visa application and $400 to lawyers (who owed me a favour or it would have been much more) that effectivly sped up the process of his handling. With all this going on, we were still unable to prove to the US Government that Vana will not stay more then 3 days her e and that his interest is not to work illegally in some deli in new york or plant bombs somewhere… excuse my sarcasm, but this is their general p oint of view since 9/11/2001. We are truly dissapointed as it would take 4 months to have Rinkadink even be qualified to re-try his application. We have exhausted all the options, and smuggling him in a trunk from Canada was also brought up and quickly dismissed. We realize that people were w aiting for him to make his mark on NYC, but at this time it is out of our hands. We do not intend to leave a hole in the lineup so with no further d elay, we are proud to present: *** JOTI SIDHU AKA PSYCHAOS – LIVE! *** Jo ti is one of the pioneers of trance and is soon coming out with a new Psyc haos album. I would to personally thank Shane Gobi of Alchemy Records for seriously dealing with this bullshit on a daily basis for the past 5 month s. Show must go on. Here is a message from Mr. Shane Gobi – Alchemy Recor ds Manager: “hI Firstly i would like to apologise for rinkadinks show been canseled, as much as vana would have loved to come, its been an impossibl e task, so much time and energy wasted in trying to make this happen, but it was not meant to be, Alchemy Records would like to thank Gadi for all h is time and effort over the last five months, and we would like to wish hi m all the best with this event, ………… with Joti at hand, im sure it s going to be no problem All the best Alchemy Records crew” for more dis ussion read here: forum.isratrance/viewtopic.php/topic/35597rum/28 -gadi at ecliptic-trance Z September 22 12:30pm Autumnal Equinox -Sa turday September 25th – d with the New Jersey crew & bcameron Born and ra ised in the *lush forests* of north jersey, brandon is back from the icy p uritan clutches of western mass. and poised to humbly deliver a smashing s et of fresh psychedelic tranceE280A6underneath his waspy exterior is a c ore of understanding, appreciation, and curiosity, fueled by early travels to india, east asia, and europeE280A6this experience manifests itself in his deep and contemplative – gentle yet powerful sets that explore the polar extremes of human emotion, and blur the line between progressive and full-on tranceE280A6fused together by precise mixing, expect to hear a nything from minilogue to azax syndrome, but likely more of a happy medium E280A6this may be jerseys best kept secret Z Tuesday morning S eptember 28th 7:09am Full Moon M October 22 – Friday – Timothy Leary’s Birt hday October Z Wednesday morning October 27th 10:08 am Full Moon ZOctober 28th – Full Moon Lunar Eclipse November e November 17th – Wednesday – Tere nce McKenna’s Birthday ZFriday afternoon November 26th 3:08 pm Full Moon De cember ZDecember 21 7:42am Winter Solstice MFriday December 25th – Christm as ZSaturday morning December 26th 10:07 am Full Moon e January 11th Alber t Hoffman’s Birthday LEGEND (only visible in HTML email) – Full-On, G oa Trance, Psy-Trance, and Butt Rock Goa at PsyTekk AKA progressive/minimal { Chill/Ambient/Downtempo/Kirtan J Outdoors -Benefit Q Out of town (Outside tristate New York metro area; Only included for major acts) Z Full Moons/ Meteor Showers M Weird/Unusual/Holiday N Industrial, “Psy”DM e Birthday i B urning Man type events at Psychedelic Art Events a Abundant female energy, i .e. a social scene not just a rave crackhouse SOUND RATINGS (if known & determined; louder isn’t always better; 10 watts pe r person) XXX Large, i .e.

Lauryn (Sonic Beating) Lauryn’s humble beginnings date back to 1998 when she was single-handedly throwing parties and producing her own all-trance radio show while a student at Hamilton College in upstate New Y ork. A chance encounter with Ammon EP at Satellite Records opened her door into the psychedelic world and Lauryn has since, never looked back. Start ing in the winter of 2002, Lauryn has played amazing sets at Boston’s pres tiguious psy-weekly, “Anitya”, has served (and continues to serve) as a re sident of Sonic Beating’s monthly “Psyforia”, and has played multiple one- offs from Maine to Providence to New York and New Jersey. Still involved i n a weekly radio show out of Tufts University, Lauryn is consistently honi ng and fine-tuning the already impeccable DJ skills that have made her a B oston crowd-pleaser. Though best known for blowing up dancefloors with her South African influenced dark funky full on sounds from the likes of Wizzy Noise, Altom, Rinkadink, and Damage, Lauryn has also been exploring the g entler side of the psychedelic sound. Her latest mix-CD, “Sub-Liminal” sh ows this, featuring tracks by Antix, Frogacult, Bitmonx and others. Dave Henshaw (Changmian) A progressive and hard-trance DJ in his earlier years, Dave wasn’t introduced to the psychedelic sound until he spent 1998 livin g in Cape Town, South Africa. His first interactions with the sound were r elatively indifferent and it wasn’t until his introduction to Dino in the fall fo 2000 that he was able to appreciate how beautiful, malleable, and adaptive the psychedelic sound could be. It was albums like Atmos’s “Headc leaner,” Vibrasphere’s “Echo,” and XV Kilist’s self-titled full-length tha t enamored Dave to no end. He immediately joined Changmian Productions and began working at “Samsara.” After that weekly ended, he teamed up with Di no and Mathwin to start “Anitya” – Boston’s storied two-year all-psy-tranc e weekly. To this day, (aside from writing long winded party reviews and b abbling on the lists all the time) Dave continues to refine his musical ta stes and DJ skills in order to show how “progressive” and “psychedelic” mu sic can unify, harmonize, and elevate parties to new heights. Primarily in to the “Scandinavian sound” from labels like Iboga, Digital Structures, and Interzone; Dave has been lucky enough to share the stage with many of the DJ’s and artists he respects the most. Expect a very groovy, very danceab le, and very ear-friendly set from Boston’s propagator of the progressive psychedelic sound. Winslow (Changmian/SonicBeating) After spending muc h of his earlier years spinning Dancehall Raggae, Winslow made the shift t o psy-trance in early 2001. An introduction to Boston’s then-established w eekly, Samsara,” coupled with trips to Spectra parties in New York made fo r Winslow’s perfect transition into psy-trance. Playing at numerous Boston parties since then – including Changmain’s fabled “beach parties” – Jake has proven that whether it be Dancehall or psy-trance – he’s got the skills ! With musical tastes ranging from Phony Orphants to Safi Connection, Jake never fails to impress crowds with his versatility, mixing ability, and t rack selection. Tonite, be prepared to hear some late-night full-on psy th at’ll make you realize that Boston talent does indeed exist outside Fenway park! Dave Dittmer (Changmian/SonicBeating) Boston. One of Boston’s mos t experienced, yet little known psy-trance DJs; Dave made an impressive Bo ston resurfacing in 2003. Previously a mysterious and enigmatic character, Dave played sporadic gigs everywhere from Boston’s “Anitya” to an Omni-T ribe Party featuring Noma in New York City. This past year, however, was d ifferent. A new affiliation with Sonic Beating plus a steady flow of gigs has equalled multitudes of happy dancefloors and stomping feet.Though it’s always been there, crowds of people are now getting to finally experience Dave’s passion and energy! His mixing is precision-oriented. His programm ing is razor sharp. And his ability to procure the best tracks is uncanny. Tonite, be prepared to hear Dave Dittmer as he was meant to be heard: ove r a big sound system and in front of a big audience. Binary (Sonic Beatin g) Before anyone even heard the name “Binary” in Boston, the man behind tha t name was busy producing “Free Update,” an all-psy-trance radio program o n a local college station. After honing his skills in the isolated studio, Binary broke into the public eye with two ear-popping sets at Boston’s lo ng-standing psy-weekly, “Anitya.” From there, he never looked back. Though “Free Update” remains a fixture in Boston radio, Binary has branched out into a highly skilled and versatile DJ (joined Anitya’s residency in Septe mber 2003,) a crafty and intelligent sound engineer, and the founder of hi s own production company – “Sonic Beating Productions.” Currently serving as the resident of his monthly brainchild, “Psyforia;” Binary has played t o packed dancefloors all over the Eastern United States – most notably at last year’s Omni-Dance, where he delivered a full-on set that tossed and c rushed the outdoor audience. Though his versatility and musical library h ave grown exponentially over the course of the last few years, Binary is m ost known for his powerful, intense, and at times overwhelming full-on tra nce. When Binary gets behind the system, you know you’re in for a good set . Dino (Changmian) Perhaps the most experienced and influential member of the Boston psy-trance community, Dean began holding successful weeklies a nd all night beach gatherings as early as 1998. It was that year when he a nd long time friend Dave West founded Changmian Productions; thus putting Boston on the national “trance-map”. After three years of successful tranweeklies, Changmian decided to shift gears in the fall of 2000 and dedi cate itself to propagating only the psychedelic sound. A few months later, “Samsara,”Boston’s first ever all psy-trance weekly, was started at a loc al bar in Cambridge. After Samsara ended, Dino joined forces with Dave He nshaw and Mathwin to launch Boston’s second all psy-trance weekly, “Anitya “. The storied two year history of this event made Boston synonymous with psy-trance. Over the years Dino has become known for his melodic and groo vy full-on psy-trance sound. His sets usually don’t exceed 136 BPM, giving the music space to breathe, while allowing the listener to hear and feel every nuance. Dino’s diversity has become one of his finest attributes as a DJ. Whether it be full-on, progressive, chill out, or atmospheric drum & bass; Dean’s passion for music knows no limits… Goldilocks (Texaliens/ Sonic Beating) Goldilocks is a recent addition to the Boston scene,hailin g until recently from Austin, Texas [like ds own Machinelf]. We ‘re not entirely sure what his name is all about, but he assures us that h is porridge is just right. Flavors include progressive, third-wave, and gr ooving peak-time psy.

Fluoro Robotic Art and Installations by Bob (Ziatrance) His rob ot can kick your robot’s ass (By Dave Henshaw) Growing up in the sands of N ew Mexico, Bob now makes his home in the peaceful confines of Boston. Know n primarily for his internet radio station, Zia-Trance; Bob made a massive splash into Beantown’s visual scene this past winter at Psyforia, the cit y’s long-standing monthly party. An astonishing display of handmade iconog raphic flourescent tapestries lit up the dancefloor as Blue Spectral Monke y poured mayhem through the Sonic Beating Sound Pump. Ears and eyes were u nited in blissful indulgence! From there, Bob moved onto showing three-dim ensional pieces motorized pieces, and was quickly named Psyforia’s residen t deco artist. Soon after, he did installations at both installments of Bo ston’s “Central Psy,” and then another in the 2004 Omni-Dance Pavillion. P roduction increased and public interest in his work followed suit. His use of light, motors, motion, and mechanical devices set his work apart from those focused on stationary installations. His creativity, versatility, an d insatiable desire for intensity always inspire those who view his pieces . Tonite, we welcome Boston’s Visual Brahman to New York for another eye-p opping psychedemechanical visual installation! 55 Lex (i.e. home of Cata, Evan, Raffi, Zhenya and Kenya) has been renovated repainted and refurnishe d. The gathering on friday is intended to be a congregation of deemsters a chance to hear psy trance on a top notch sound system, and, very speci fically, to cooperatively create a safe, clean and sacred environment, so that future avenues for love and entheospace may present themselves to us.

Right, that is, if you like your Trance tracks like a tidal wave, like a werewolfs howl, like a sandblaster busting open your third eye. As he comes across quiet and somewhat reserved in person, one would not, at f irst, realize that Kri is on a mission, a serious quest to bring Psychedel ic Trance music to the people, and to bring the people to a state of enlig htenment in the process. Caught up in the party scene of the 90s and gaini ng a reputation for his skills in mixing breakbeat and scratching, Kri lef t it all behind to pursue full-time the haunting promise Goa trance laid o ut for him. Now, he has single handedly created a devout Trance family in a tiny, southern town that had previously never heard of any such thing, o rchestrating parties and gatherings whose emphasis is holistic, about the m usic and the magic, never getting lost in the hype or the egocentrism of t he business. Starting to build a body of his own compositions, edgy pieces demanding the listener to recognize Trances primal roots, Kri is showing himself as an incredibly dedicated Goa Trance musician and dj. More and mo re, his skills are being sought after in places all over the country, and I will venture a reason why. To listen to Kri play is to remember our lega cy as spiritual beings with tumultuous desires, with an innate need to pou nd our feet into the Earth to raise our prayers to the heavens…on the da nce floor that translates to his creating all-consuming, orgiastic rituals of dance where he pushes you past your limits to a place beyond a good pa rty or a great time, but to a place where you can capture a glimpse of a f uture in which the primal and the technological fuse to bring us a passion ate and fulfilling existence on a planet that survives. Heavy? Yeah, but s o is the Psychedelic Goa Trance experience, and heavier still is a night f illed with Kris dark, driving tracks, his momentum slowly building like a panthers body tensing each muscle till its time to strike its prey, and th en, youre a goner. Kri first played in New York at an outdoor festival by the d and most recently in Jersey City for Omnitribe.

Lauryn (Sonic Beating) /SP AN auryn’s humble beginnings date back to 1998 when she was single-handedly th rowing parties and producing her own all-trance radio show while a student at Hamilton College in upstate New York. A chance encounter with Ammon EP a t Satellite Records opened her door into the psychedelic world and Lauryn h as since, never looked back. Starting in the winter of 2002, Lauryn has pla yed amazing sets at Boston’s prestiguious psy-weekly, “Anitya”, has served (and continues to serve) as a resident of Sonic Beating’s monthly “Psy foria”, and has played multiple one-offs from Maine to Providence to N ew York and New Jersey. Still involved in a weekly radio show out of Tufts University, Lauryn is consistently honing and fine-tuning the already impec cable DJ skills that have made her a Boston crowd-pleaser. Though best know n for blowing up dancefloors with her South African influenced dark funky f ull on sounds from the likes of Wizzy Noise, Altom, Rinkadink, and Damage,& nbsp;Lauryn has also been exploring the gentler side of the psychedelic sou nd. Her latest mix-CD, “Sub-Liminal” shows this, featuring tracks by Antix, Frogacult, Bitmonx and others. Dave Henshaw (Chang ressive and hard-trance DJ in his earlier years, Dave wasn’t introduced to the psychedelic sound until he spent 1998 living in Cape Town, South Africa . His first interactions with the sound were relatively indifferent and it wasn’t until his introduction to Dino in the fall fo 2000 that he was able to appreciate how beautiful, malleable, and adaptive the psychede lic sound could be. It was albums like Atmos’s “Headcleaner,” Vibrasph ere’s “Echo,” and XV Kilist’s self-titled full-length that enamored Da ve to no end. He immediately joined Changmian Productions and began wo rking at “Samsara.” After that weekly ended, he teamed up with Dino an d Mathwin to start “Anitya” – Boston’s storied two-year all- psy-trance weekly. To this day, (aside from writing long winded party reviews and babbling on the lists all the time) Dave continues to refine hi s musical tastes and DJ skills in order to show how “progressive” and “psychedelic” music can unify, harmonize, and elevate parties to new height s. Primarily into the “Scandinavian sound” from labels like Iboga, Dig ital Structures, and Interzone; Dave has been lucky enough to share the sta ge with many of the DJ’s and artists he respects the most. Expect a very gr oovy, very danceable, and very ear-friendly set from Boston’s propagator of Winslow is earlier years spinning Dancehall Raggae, Winslow made the shift to psy-t rance in early 2001. An introduction to Boston’s then-established weekly, S amsara,” coupled with trips to Spectra parties in New York made for Winslow ‘s perfect transition into psy-trance. Playing at numerous Boston parties s ince then – including Changmain’s fabled “beach parties” – Jake has pr oven that whether it be Dancehall or psy-trance – he’s got the skills! With musical tastes ranging from Phony Orphants to Safi Connection, Jake n ever fails to impress crowds with his versatility, mixing ability, and t rack selection. Tonite, be prepared to hear some late-night full-on psy tha t’ll make you realize that Boston talent does indeed exist outside Fenway p SPA N(Changmian/SonicBeating) Boston. One of Boston’s most experienc ed, yet little known psy-trance DJs; Dave made an impressive Boston resurfa cing in 2003. Previously a mysterious and enigmatic character, Dave p layed sporadic gigs everywhere from Boston’s “Anitya” to an Omni-Tribe P arty featuring Noma in New York City. This past year, however, was differen t. A new affiliation with Sonic Beating plus a steady flow of gigs ha s equalled multitudes of happy dancefloors and stomping feet.Though it’s al ways been there, crowds of people are now getting to finally experience Dav e’s passion and energy! His mixing is precision-oriented. His programmin g is razor sharp. And his ability to procure the best tracks is uncanny. To nite, be prepared to hear Dave Dittmer as he was meant to be heard: over a name “Binary” in Boston, the man behind that name was busy producing “Free Update,” an all-psy-trance radio program on a local college station. After honing his skills in the isolated studio, Binary broke into the public eye with two ear-popping sets at Boston’s long-standing psy-weekly, “Anitya.” F rom there, he never looked back. Though “Free Update” remains a fixture in Boston radio, Binary has branched out into a highly skilled and versatile D J (joined Anitya’s residency in September 2003,) a crafty and intelligent s ound engineer, and the founder of his own production company – “Sonic Beati ng Productions.” Currently serving as the resident of his monthly brainchil d, “Psyforia;” Binary has played to packed dancefloors all over the Eastern United States – most notably at last year’s Omni-Dance, where he delivered a full-on set that tossed and crushed the outdoor audience. Though h is versatility and musical library have grown exponentially over the course of the last few years, Binary is most known for his powerful, intense, and at times overwhelming full-on trance. When Binary gets behind the system,

Right, that is, if you like your Trance tracks like a tidal wave, like a werewolfs howl, like a sandblaster busting open your third eye. As he comes across quiet a nd somewhat reserved in person, one would not, at first, realize that Kri is on a mission, a serious quest to bring Psychedelic Trance music to the people, and to bring the people to a state of enlightenment in the process . Caught up in the party scene of the 90s and gaining a reputation for his skills in mixing breakbeat and scratching, Kri left it all behind to purs ue full-time the haunting promise Goa trance laid out for him. Now, he has single handedly created a devout Trance family in a tiny, southern town t hat had previously never heard of any such thing, orchestrating parties an d gatherings whose emphasis is holistic, about the music and the magic, ne ver getting lost in the hype or the egocentrism of the business. Starting to build a body of his own compositions, edgy pieces demanding the listene r to recognize Trances primal roots, Kri is showing himself as an incredib ly dedicated Goa Trance musician and dj. More and more, his skills are bein g sought after in places all over the country, and I will venture a reason why. To listen to Kri play is to remember our legacy as spiritual beings with tumultuous desires, with an innate need to pound our feet into the Ea rth to raise our prayers to the heavens…on the dance floor that translat es to his creating all-consuming, orgiastic rituals of dance where he push es you past your limits to a place beyond a good party or a great time, bu t to a place where you can capture a glimpse of a future in which the prim al and the technological fuse to bring us a passionate and fulfilling exis tence on a planet that survives. Heavy? Yeah, but so is the Psychedelic Go a Trance experience, and heavier still is a night filled with Kris dark, d riving tracks, his momentum slowly building like a panthers body tensing e ach muscle till its time to strike its prey, and then, youre a goner. Kri first played in New York at an outdoor festival by the d and most recent ly in Jersey City for Omnitribe.

As he comes across quiet and somewhat reserved in person, one wo uld not, at first, realize that Kri is on a mission, a serious quest to bri ng Psychedelic Trance music to the people, and to bring the people to a sta te of enlightenment in the process. Caught up in the party scene of the 90s and gaining a reputation for his skills in mixing breakbeat and scratching Kri left it all behind to pursue full-time the haunting promise Goa tranc e laid out for him. Now, he has single handedly created a devout Trance fam ily in a tiny, southern town that had previously never heard of any such th ing, orchestrating parties and gatherings whose emphasis is holistic, about the music and the magic, never getting lost in the hype or the egocentrism of the business. Starting to build a body of his own compositions, edgy pi eces demanding the listener to recognize Trances primal roots, Kri is showing himself as an incredibly dedicated Goa Trance musician and dj. More and more, his skills are being sought after in places all over the co is to remember our legacy as spiritual beings with tumultuous desires, with an innate need to pound our feet into the Earth to raise our prayers to th e heavens…on the dance floor that translates to his creating all-consumin g, orgiastic rituals of dance where he pushes you past your limits to a plabeyond a good party or a great time, but to a place where you can captur e a glimpse of a future in which the primal and the technological fuse to b ring us a passionate and fulfilling existence on a planet that survives.

Here are the final results: POLL QUESTION: Would you pay 25 cents a week to get TripOutNY? It would have more pictures, more articles, more interviews and I would also have a printed copy (small print, 3 pages double sided) for $1 but the circulation would inevitably drop. Maybe a more indepth version with more listings with art, quasi trance events also listed would be good. What do you think? Check all that apply! CHOICES AND RESULTS – Yes – I would pay 25 cents an issue, 4 votes, 12.12% – No – I wouldn’t pay 25 cents, 7 votes, 21.21% – Charge for a more indepth version but keep the current TripOutNY free, 8 votes, 24.24% – Jeff you greedy bastard get a real job, 10 votes, 30.30% – Make it free for d members but everyone else has to pay, 4 votes, 12.12%

Click h ere to donate online ($10 gets you d membership) PsyTrance News The tranfestival at Echo Lake that had been scheduled this weekend has been pos tponed for several months. Consequently, though, there’s a free open air g athering Thursday night in NJ, this weekend is empty trance-wise. The d would make an on-demand open air outlaw here in the city if we can raise the bare minumum of $100 and get four people to help us move it. If ten p eople join for $10 each, there will be a welcoming party. Plus, these new members get to vote for DJs. So if you are an aspiring DJ and have $100 and ten friends, you have a solid voting bloc. You’re in business. If eve ry person who came to the last evening event donated fifty cents, we’d be on. I went to Jennella’s last Thursday for the trance party. I got ther e at 2am and the place was closed. Not sure what’s happening there this w eek, check NYC604 for updates. The d Shuttle is driving people to NJ for the open air this Thursday, and possibly MAATAA MANDAARA in West Virg inia Sept 10-12 if we get enough prepaid (which should happen in a day or two). Contact me ASAP if interested, it’s as always first come first serv e Due to security concerns the d/NYC Buddhists are moving their Burning Buddha beach party with DJs Nobi, Jun, Spirit, Egbot & a d voted crew to the ‘Barrens Labor Day Weekend, Saturday & Sunday..so the clothing option al option is back!

You can see Datura plants in bloom all over the city as it is comm only grown in brownstone facade and backyard gardens. Beautiful big white trumpets.

I wonder where we’ll be by the end of the year? With a community pixel projector, I hope! So now we have a van, the d Shuttle. As the designated driver now I can’t drink beer at parties anymore. What did I g et myself in to? I had visions of a pimped out pachuco travelling shagade lic harem and marathon d trafficking. Now it’s looking like it’s aa a spartan little container to keep the Sober Me in. You can immediately te ll I’m sober at a party. I’m not wearing fluoro or anything outlandish, o r talking loudly. And I’m midly stressed about somthing. But now, I am twiddling the car keys wondering when I’m gonna have to drive everyone hom e -and if I’ll be the Trance Motivational Speaker in a Van who lives down by the Van by the River (or bridge). Maybe passengers can be like the Jew s and blow the Chauffeur, I mean, the “Shofar” horn over Rosh Hashanah. A t least they won’t Squeeze the Shaman, I mean Charmin, especially as that ain’t me. Maybe there are MORE people who could use the responsibility of a large piece of machinery. Then again, maybe not. We’ve had one too man y beers in the mixer.

Thanks Pat s hockwaverider at gmail! That segment aired many times in the US on Disco very Channel’s “Between Life and Death” and yes long lost friends contacte d me in disbelief. The video capture is interesting because right when Karl Jansen is talking about the brain as a television set tuning itself to di fferent channels – “the Light that is always around us” – the videotape ga rbles and that’s where you see my head bobbing in speaking over the tape. I was working for Bloomberg at the time, and the segment is shot in the Eas t Village at Benny’s Burritos. And yes I was under the influence at the t ime. Karl has some intersting words as well about trance and virtual galact ic cruising. I don’t want this to be an endorsement of K as I unfor tunately I dont have the punk ‘zine article or a photo of me passed out cr ucified on the subway tracks screaming my URL that almost ended my neuron autic marathon of six years. Everyone has their Jesus moment I guess. No more nails for these hands LOL There was some residual opportunism, howev er. After that video I got paid by Columbia (the University not the count ry) to memory tests under a PET scanner with radioactive trace elements fl oating around my brain. The only person in the study who had a higher hai r content level of K was some weirdo they flew in from Canada. I’ll beat him next time yeah right. I think I’ll show the video at the brainmachines booth at the upcoming Body Electric MAPS event in Alex Grey’s gallery at S pirit along with Tales from the Tripside from the unfortunately defunct Tr ip Magazine, a wickedly funny spoofy psychedelic geek DVD I highly recomme nd and will offer soon. hey, i compressed that NDE video you put on that c dr you gave me. it’s 10% of the original size!

If nothing el se, it would look great on a PR release to music magazines – and local pro ducers and organizers would have a bigger market. On December 1 we could h ave everyone nominate the best releases of 2004. The nominations will be voted through the TripOutNY yahoogroup polling section. Then before a sho w in december we can hand out the – what should we call the Prize – Not an Obie (or a Nobi) but maybe an Om? Too ethnic. the Goa trash awards? to o limiting. The trance People’s Chouice Awards? Too derivative. Maybe a T ONY (for Trip Out New York heh) or even a STONY (ah been done) It doesn’t even happen to have NY in the name or association. Hey – how about TRANCE FORMER AWARDS? Sound cheesy? you bet! And the prize is an actual trance former figure painted Day-Glo.. And the type of Transformer figure will v ary on the actual awards. So the Best Goa would be different than Best Dr ug Dealer (just kidding) Maybe Hasbro will co-sponsor LOL Maybe if can be just NYC people and do it at a dinner. Start small – but think big? Pint the tail on the Trancespotter? The charge for the entries ($50) would pay f or the Transformers which i assume would be have to be scored on ebay for a pretty penny. Also dinner at a cheap Indian place for example. If you think that’s too high, let us you. We’ll also open our books and have rec eipts for all award expenses. And we can make a video and broadcast it broa dband. And report it in Mushroom Mag and Entrance Magazine. I really do n’t want to be the host, and we better not have Raffi be it either we’ll s ave it for the Wrestling Show, so, uh we need a volunteer. Female? fine. (Volunteer for the Show not the Wrestling heh) The event will be in mid De cember a week before finals for the collegiate/high school jailbait 😀 If anyone wants to help in a production let me know, we’ll decide on a name a nd split up duties, and make a working yahoogroup to coordinate. The only f oreseeable problem is our limited knowldge of trance music out there. the re may be a bias towards qualities and attributes that have little to do w it the award, i.e. geography, association/proximity with New York, quality of chillum, etc (Laugh if you want, but Burning Man started on much humble r circumstances and much darker intentions- harvey was burning his ex-gf’s lover in effigy, which proves that the road to heaven can be paved with b ad intentions. In that case I can think of a certain dreadhead ex gf that will be the queen of heaven when she passes on) -Gathering Reviews Tsunam i/Elektrolust Review Early this year in Mushroom Magazine i preduicted tha t the club Spirit would be home to the most holistic trance events NYC has ever seen. With Lisa’s show with Noma and Atmos and now Tsunami’s Halluc inogen party, I thionk there’s a precedent, the bar is raised. First off – the place was VERY crowded with little room to dance – they should have o pened up the second floor – why! And why did they close a tiny bit early There were a lot of the old school there, which I’ll get to in a second, and a lot of guidos and pushy club people. John, where do you find these subhuman primates? Everyone I knew was tripping With all due respect – Hal lucinogen sucked! Undanceable, poppy, too fast BPMs plus bad remixes of b ad old goa.. his was the first tranxce cd i ever bought but his set was an insult – was he pandering to NYC. Yanni rocked! Yay Yanni! You go boy. He made for a great show. The art gallery upstairs was VIP only WTF!?! E litist pricks! Art for the people! The afterparty was progressive and coo l, it’s so nice to go to a bridge party with no hassles or worries of sett ing up or taking down. Elektrolust Andre had everyone there dancing – in the daytime – with only 2 SRM450s on stands whoaa! I had a great time both parties and thanks John and Andre And thanks Blaine for pciking shit up! I give the whole thing a thumbs up. If they would have gone later, Simon p layed better stuff and if thhe second floor would have been open too it wou ld be two thumbs WAY up. I saw several people who have bitchly bad mouthed Tsunami in the past – WTF you whores! Some of these people only come out for the biggest major acts in clubs, eschewing the local underground. A nd they bad mouth the organizers but are friendly to me. Save your kind w ords for the judge – I’d rather have your money bitch! If you go and enjo y yourself, don’t stab the organizer in the back or you’ll look like a pho ny. Photosd from Maata Mandara touchsamadhi/gallery/MMIV Thieves at Bo om sky.servermms.org/s,trancegoa,4,5745,1,0 Dan de Maria’s We ekend review I was at my own Body Temple event yesterday. Free party in Con ey Island. More of the blast from the past. Harkened to the rave days of o ld! DJs were playing hard trance, rave techno, some D&B, down & dirty hard core towards the end. Went from 2P to 2A, on the Boardwalk. Judging by the weather today, too bad it couldn’t have been the same yesterday as today is, the rides could have been opened up. THAT would have been a flashback to a Rhode Island rave about a decade ago, Camp Earth. (Remember kidz, tri pping and roller coaster are not a good combo-although bumper cars are fun !) Anyway, the place where the party was at would be a really nice place t o throw a party for us tranceketeers (Suzi, hope you don’t mind). Place is called Cha Cha’s, Last stop for the Q and I believe the F & D train. One of the owners and his wife/GF were having a blast last night with the rave rs, dancing, interacting with us-really nice. Being that we’re a more “a-h em” mature crowd, who knows. I asked if they were open year round, He said they are trying to be, if they can generate the business. Maybe somthing to look into. The energy, the love, the music were great. The giveaways w ere a nice touch too!!! Saw a few familar faces-Alexis, Peaches and her ” crew” that I see at the bridge parties (ours and the house crew from the H eights) and our man Michel. Since he was in the neighborhood… Did anyth ing go on after the party at Exit? I was supposed to meet a woman I met on Monday at Roxy Friday night. Figured I’d stop by Exit, have a drink, say hi to some folks, enjoy the music a bit, then head off to Manhattan. Didn’t exactly go as planned. Maybe I’ll see her Monday. She isn’t a big fan of trance, so it may not be meant to be, ya know. Anyways, pass on whatever w as going on over the weekend, good, bad, indifferent. Now on to my journey to Little Italy, San Genarro. Much like the Muslims to Mecca or the Jews to Florida in the winter, I gotta go… P.L.U.R. (for those that remember t he dream) Dan -Mix CD Reviews Killer mix cd – Binary from Sonmic Beating ( Boston) In terms of it staying constantly in my CD deck. Hasn’t happened s ince Kri’s Tuned Out CD. Normally anyone with Space Monkey (word for the Fight Club organization) is tops by me, but dayummmmmn what transitions an d track selection. And the perfect sweet spot between psy and progressive . I still have to get to Lauryn’s yet but I just wanted to throw respect to tha man! I shoulda known he was good for more than building an epicurean sound system and speaking at HackersOnPlanetEarth conferences.

Lori and Boris Shrooms: Not Just For Salad Anymore By Kelly Hearn AlterNet. Posted August 29, 2004. web alternet.org/envirohealth/1 9680/ A visionary biologist says Fungi are potent antiviral and antib acterial agents, as well as key boosters to the human immune system. They also might end up saving the Earth. To lots of folks, a middle-aged man wh o says Fungi can save the world falls into the category of turbo-freak . But to some environmentalists, scientists and major investors, Paul Stam ets is the trippiest of profitable kings. “Fungi restore health both on the personal and ecological level,” says Stamets, mycologist and owner of Fungi Perfecti, a family-owned mushroom business in Shelton, Wash. “Mus hrooms can heal people and the planet.” Stamets, a former logger turned s canning electron microscopist, is bent on showing that fungal mycelium and Fungi (the actual mushroom is the fruit of the mycelium) are the corn erstone of several Earth-friendly, multi-billion dollar industries. To him there’s no end to what spores can do. Collaborating with public and pri vate agencies from Batelle Industries to the National Institutes of Health Stamets is giving shrooms their 15 minutes of fame, promoting them as an tiviral and antibacterial agents, as well as key boosters to the human imm une system. Outside the body, Stamets says he has cloned mycelia and mush rooms that can kill pests, absorb radioactive material, filter toxic waste s and, according to an article in Jane’s Defense Weekly, even degrade sur rogates of deadly VX and sarin gas. Stamets, who has collected over 250 st rains of wild Fungi, says that until now, they were largely ignored by environmentalists and scientists. He has filed for dozens of patents, he says, with more to follow. “Every failure is a cost of tuition of the educ ation you have come to learn,” he says, “You graduate to greater and great er techniques.” Survivors of Catastrophe Fungi graduated through evo lution to become acute survivors that recycle life after devastation. Abou t 250 million years ago, after a massive extinction from a meteorite, Stam ets says fungi inherited the Earth and “recycled the post-cataclysmic debr is fields.” Today they are a keystone species spanning large swaths of lan d and secreting enzymes and acids that break down plant matter (which, lu cky enough, has chemical bonds similar to contaminants like petroleum and pesticides). “The 21st century will be the century of the biologist,” Stam ets says in nod to technologies that are exposing life’s basic microcellul ar relationships. Teasing apart those relationships has helped Stamets co me up with some seemingly killer techniques. One aims to stop silt runoff on logging roads, for example, by spreading bark and wood chips that have been coated with mycelia of local native fungal species. The mycelia’s nat ural filtration properties stop the silt flow and prompt the regrowth of t he topsoil. In another technique he calls “mycorestoration,” Stamets uses fungi to filter out pathogens, silt and chemicals from water (mycofiltrat ion) and to denature toxic wastes. The low-tech devices E28093 which of ten involve placing the fungi in straw, for example E28093 can be place d around farms, watersheds, factories and roads. Stamets also uses fungi t o hurry the natural decomposition of logs on the forest floor. Knowing tha t local habitat better evolves when the sequence of decomposition is sped up (rather than burned), Stamets devised a way to put spores in chainsaw o il. The result: When a logger cuts a tree, he also coats it with spores th at help it decompose. As proof of Fungi’ ability to mop up humanity’s deadly mistakes, Stamets tells of Fungi growing near Chernobyl that w ere found to have accumulated high levels of the deadly Cesium 137 that le aked from faulty reactors. Why not put Fungi near environmentally wre cked sites, allowing them to work as a natural immune system? Non-Pollutin g Pesticides Stamets’ key project E28093 which has attracted the attent ion of Ben DuPont, an investor from the famed family E28093 is U.S. Pat ent number 6,660,290. Somewhere during his study of the dialectic relatio nship between fungi and insects, Stamets came up with a way to use one to kill the other. “Mycopesticides,” he says, are non-polluting tools that co uld upend the global pesticide industry. One version of the idea involves using parasitic fungi that act on specific insects. The fungus, which can be presented on tasty foods like grain, kills the pest when digested. Du Pont’s company, Yet2, matches new technologies with bigger business pa rtners. Stamets, however, wouldn’t discuss Yet2’s plans for his pesticides saying only that the group is involved in talks with major companies. M ad Mycoscientist or Visionary? Kind and undeniably brilliant, Stamets’ pas sionate, rapid-fire descriptions of fungal experiments and patents can giv e the feeling he’s a mix of scientist, inventor, environmentalist and snak e-oil salesman. He admits he has his detractors E28093 “Some mycologist s think I’m a heretic.” But he also has a loyal following. “There are ver y few people capable of combining the breadth of understanding and the aca demic rigor to naturally based problem solutions than Paul,” says Dr. Eric Rasmussen, formerly of the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DAR PA), the Pentagon’s high risk, high-payoff scientific entity. “His combina tion of factors in his intellect and experience are a somewhat rare combin ation. And his work is likely to prove to have significant benefit to the United States.” (Though he would not discuss details, Stamets says he has isolated a strain of mushroom from the Old Growth forest that has shown a ctivity against viruses that could be potentially weaponized.) Dr. Donald Abrams, who is collaborating with Stamets on a National Institutes of Hea lth-funded trial to investigate the effects of the oyster mushroom in lowe ring cholesterol in people taking HIV therapies, concurs. The study is the first medical mushroom clinical study in the U.S. “I think that Paul Sta mets is a visionary thinker and a passionate spokesperson for the Mushroom Kingdom,” said Abrams, a researcher at the University of California San F rancisco School of Medicine. “I am always engrossed in his articulate pres entations of the power of Fungi in healing people and indeed the plane t.” Phil Stern of Yet2 says that for all Stamets’ scientific acumen, at t he end of the day, he’s about his beliefs. “One of the best things about P aul is not just his groundbreaking technology but his principals,” says St ern. “He says, ‘If I license this product to you, you have to uphold these principals.’ I respect his integrity.” Fungal Intelligence Stamets has a few things working against him, especially when promoting his ideas in t he mental lockdown of 21st century America. He did, after all, conduct now famous research on psilocybin hallucinogenic Fungi at Evergreen State College in the late 1970s. And he wrote “Psilocybin Fungi of the Worl d.” What’s more, to conservative minds, the trippy-dippiness of some of h is ideas can come off as silliness. In one breath, for example, he ticks o ff a riveting observation that neurological landscape looks like mycelium or that brain neurons and the Internet share mycelia’s basic structural ar rangements. In another he talks of “fungal intelligence” or ability to use spores to put life on other planets. In the draft of his new book, “Mycel ium Running: Growing Fungi to Heal People and Planet.” Stamets writes that, “The mycelium is an exposed sentient membrane, aware and responsive to changes in its environment. I especially feel this when I enter a fores t after a rainfall. Interlacing mycelial membranes form, I believe, a comp lex neuron-like web that acts as a fungal collective consciousness.” Whet her or not corporate investors will ever vibe with the fungal collective c onsciousness, Stamets says his ideas are helped by a shift in scientific c ulture that’s more accepting of non-western, natural solutions to problems . And he’s never short of evidence to back his theories. “The idea that a cellular organism demonstrates intelligence may seem radical if not for w ork by researchers like Toshuyiki Nakagami, published in Nature 2000,” Sta mets writes. “He placed a maze over the nutrient agar filled Petri dish an d introduced nutritious oat flakes at the entrance and exit. He then inocu lated the entrance with a culture of the slime mold Physarum polycephallum under sterile conditions. It grew through the maze and consistently chose the shortest route to the oat flakes at the end. Rejecting dead-ends, the slime mold demonstrated, according to the researchers, a form of intelli gence.” That intelligence, according to Stamets, might one day be used to extend life throughout the solar system. Fungi are the first organism to restart an ecosystem after catastrophes like tornadoes or forest fires popping up from the ground to return nutrients back to the food chain. T he Fungi’ scent attracts insects which then attracts birds and animals that bring in seeds, creating a life generation domino effect that unders cores the possibility of using fungi for creating habitats on other worlds . For now, his most secure convictions are planted here on Earth. “I beli eve ecosystems are conscious,” he says. “These mycelia networks, like the Internet, share information on changes in the environment such as the avai lability of new food sources or responses to cataclysmic changes. So reall y these are information sharing networks. I think they are microneurologic al networks and I think science will prove they have a form of consciousne ss that we do not recognize.” Kelly Hearn is a correspondent for The Chr istian Science Monitor and a former science and technology writer for UPI.

Thanks er at gmailshockwaverider at gmail! That segment aired many t imes in the US on Discovery Channel’s “Between Life and Death” and yes long lost friends contacted me in disbelief. The video capture is interesting because right when Karl Jansen is talking about the brain as a television set tuning itself to different channels – “the Light that is always around us” – the videotape garbles and that’s where you see my head bobbing in speaking over the tape. I was working for Bloomb erg at the time, and the segment is shot in the East Village at Benny’s Bur ritos. And yes I was under the influence at the time. Karl has some intersting words as well about trance and virtual galactic cruisi ng. I don’t want this to be an endorsement of K as I unfo rtunately I dont have the punk ‘zine article or a photo of me passed out cr ucified on the subway tracks screaming my URL that almost ended my neuronautic marathon of six years. Everyone has their Jesus moment I guess. No more nails for these hands LOL There was some residual opportunism, however. After that video I got paid by Columb ia (the University not the country) to memory tests under a PET scanner wit h radioactive trace elements floating around my brain. The only perso n in the study who had a higher hair content level of K was some weirdo the y flew in from Canada. I’ll beat him next time yeah right. I think I’ll show the video at the brainmachines booth at the upcoming Bod y Electric MAPS event in Alex Grey’s gallery at Spirit along with Tales fro m the Tripside from the unfortunately defunct Trip Magazine, a wickedly fun hey, i compressed that NDE video you put on that cdr you gave me. it’s 10% of the original size!

SP / New York is where most of the ot her awards shows are, and what better way to bring attention to this neglec ted genre? If nothing else, it would look great on a PR release to mu sic magazines – and local producers and organizers would have a bigger mark et. On December 1 we could have everyone nominate the best relea ses of 2004. The nominations will be voted through the TripOutNY yaho ogroup polling section. Then before a show in december we can hand ou t the – what should we call the Prize – Not an Obie (or a Nobi) but maybe a n Om? Too ethnic. the Goa trash awards? too limiting. The trance People’s Chouice Awards? Too derivative. Maybe a TONY (for Tr ip Out New York heh) or even a STONY (ah been done) It doesn’t even happen to have NY in the name or association. Hey – how about TRANCE FORMER AWARDS? Sound cheesy? you bet! And the prize is an actual tranceformer figure painted Day-Glo.. And the type of Transformer fi gure will vary on the actual awards. So the Best Goa would be differe nt than Best d Dealer (just kidding) Maybe Hasbro will co-spo nsor LOL Maybe if can be just NYC people and do it at a dinner. St art small – but think big? Pint the tail on the Trancespotter? DI VThe charge for the entries ($50) would pay for the Transformers which i a ssume would be have to be scored on ebay for a pretty penny. Also din ner at a cheap Indian place for example. If you think that’s too high, let us you. We’ll also open our books and have receipts for al l award expenses. And we can make a video and broadcast it broad band. And report it in Mushroom Mag and Entrance Magazine. I really don’t want to be the host, and we better not have Raffi be it either we’ll save it for the Wrestling Show, so, uh we need a volunteer.&nb sFemale? fine. (Volunteer for the Show not the Wrestling heh) The event will be in mid December a week before finals for the collegiate/high school jailbait 😀 If anyone wants to help in a production let me know, we’ll decide on a name and split up duties, and make a working yahoogroup to coo rdinate. The only foreseeable problem is our limited knowldge of trance music out there. there may be a bias towards qualities and at tributes that have little to do wit the award, i.e. geography, association/ proximity with New York, quality of chillum, etc (Laugh if you w ant, but Burning Man started on much humbler circumstances and much darker intentions- harvey was burning his ex-gf’s lover in effigy, which proves th at the road to heaven can be paved with bad intentions. In that case I can think of a certain dreadhead ex gf that will be the queen of heaven w hen she passes on) 745,1,0 ” NGathering Reviews T Early this year in Mushroom Magazine i pre duicted that the club Spirit would be home to the most holistic trance even ts NYC has ever seen. With Lisa’s show with Noma and Atmos and now Ts unami’s Hallucinogen party, I thionk there’s a precedent, the bar is raised . First off – the place was VERY crowded with little room to dan- they should have opened up the second floor – why! And why did t hey close a tiny bit early There were a lot of the old school th ere, which I’ll get to in a second, and a lot of guidos and pushy club peo ple. John, where do you find these subhuman primates? Ever yone I knew was tripping With all due respect – Hallucinogen suc ked! Undanceable, poppy, too fast BPMs plus bad remixes of bad old go a.. his was the first tranxce cd i ever bought but his set was an insult – was he pandering to NYC. Yanni rocked! Yay Yanni! Yo u go boy. He made for a great show. The art gallery upstairs was VIP only WTF!?! Elitist pricks! Art for the peopl e! The afterparty was progressive and cool, it’s so nice to go t o a bridge party with no hassles or worries of setting up or taking down.&n bsElektrolust Andre had everyone there dancing – in the daytime – with o nly 2 SRM450s on stands whoaa! I had a great time both parties a nd thanks John and Andre And thanks Blaine for pciking shit up! I give the whole thing a thumbs up. If they would have gon e later, Simon played better stuff and if thhe second floor would have been open too it would be two thumbs WAY up. I saw se veral people who have bitchly bad mouthed Tsunami in the past – WTF you who res! Some of these people only come out for the biggest major acts in clubs, eschewing the local underground. And they bad mouth the organizers but are friendly to me. Save your kind words for the judg e – I’d rather have your money bitch! If you go and enjoy yourself, d on’t stab the organizer in the back or you’ll look like a phony. Photosd from Maata Mandara title

The piece is going to be a freelance choir hired by the Foundation for Universal Sacred Musi c on a concert of five new comissioned works for voices and instruments. M y little program note about the piece: This piece is about mystical ecstasy about the moment when all dissolves in the divine. It is not about the my sticism attached to any particular tradition, but rather it is a fantasy, a n ecstastic ritual from a non-existant country, or it represents some kind of place where these different ecstatic experiences meet. The title, howeve r, is a specific reference to Balinese ritual practice, in which ecstatic t rance plays a very important part. I thought it was particularly beautiful that the Indonesian word for the act of going into trance – dadi – translat es literally as “Becoming.” What I really like about the piece is that I ha ven’t written a piece of “choral music”; rather, I’ve written a piece of r itual music that uses different vocal sounds as its materials. You can rea d more about the concert at web universalsacredmusic.org. Hope to see you t here! JSP PS Merkin hall is on 129 W 67th St. (near Amsterdam).

The piece is going to be a freelance choir hired by the Foundat ion for Universal Sacred Music on a concert of five new comissioned works for voices and instruments. My little program note about the piece: This pi ece is about mystical ecstasy, about the moment when all dissolves in the divine. It is not about the mysticism attached to any particular tradition but rather it is a fantasy, an ecstastic ritual from a non-existant count ry, or it represents some kind of place where these different ecstatic ex periences meet. The title, however, is a specific reference to Balinese rit ual practice, in which ecstatic trance plays a very important part. I thou ght it was particularly beautiful that the Indonesian word for the act of going into trance – dadi – translates literally as “Becoming.” What I real ly like about the piece is that I haven’t written a piece of “choral music “; rather, I’ve written a piece of ritual music that uses different vocal sounds as its materials. You can read more about the concert at web universalsacredmusic.org/. Hope to see you there! JSP PS Merkin hall is o n 129 W 67th St. (near Amsterdam).

Join us earlier at 7 PM for unique celebration with special three-hour Halloween Journey with Parashakti, TranceBreath team, and Guest Elders: Dancing to Retrieve Lost Pieces of Our Soul – Halloween TranceDance for Facing Our Fears and Dark Side. The Shaman sees the Spirits and knows how to exorcise them; he recognizes that the soul has fled, and is able to overtake it, in ecstasy, and return it to its body.” – Mircea Eliade, “Shamanism: Archaic Techniques of Ectasy” Every time we experience a Trauma in our life, we lose parts of our soul. Dancing to Retrieve Lost Pieces of Our Soul, uncovers the secrets and mysteries of ones true self. The primary goal is for the dancer to enter the void, the place of the unknown where the truth can be discovered and the missing Soul pieces can return. We create a safe sacred space in the dance; temporarily removing one’s ego from its everyday comfort zone so that it can be introduced to a life more in Harmony with the desires of the soul, our destiny, the dance of life. But first the ego’s self image must undergo a death, a complete transformation. This dance of initiation is done in the seclusion of darkness, the doorway to bridge the Spirit world and the Physical plain. It is within this opportunity that the dancer can reflect on the reoccurring patterns, obstacles and Physical, Spiritual, Emotional and Mental blockages through Dance. The body dances for its life, creating a prayer in motion. Advance reduced tickets to “Dancing to Retrieve Lost Pieces of Our Soul” are available for limited time at $30 until October 15. The $30 ticket includes free admission to the party (party begins 10:30 PM). To ensure your participation and enjoy the $30 limited time advance rate you can pay with your credit card or direct payment from your bank account using PayPal at web bodytemple.info/event The workshop and the party take place at the beautiful Grand Space in Brooklyn, with easy subway ride from Manhattan or short taxi ride from downtown Manhattan (around $13).

Matenda is from the same town in southe rn Sweden as my family’s. Psy-Trance News Pedro and Mattyas are doing som ething the weekend of Halloween This week’s Mantra, courtesy of DJ Nutz: T hin the Herd Boston people are lucky to have Sean DJ Nutz there. He’s real ly good – even if he didn’t have madmtskillz I’d still like to party with h im, and his wife Heather is a gem. He played to a full house down in NYC last weekend, and was kind enough to bring his equipment. but i must admi t our party was nothing compared to the Jesse’s Burning Man stylr roof aft erparty with big tall airport landing light towers on the roof… I’m afr aid the burners have us beat hands down in terms of crafting together inte resting events. And there’s rampant/raunchy gaian energy (or maybe dionys ian) but i guess trance people do straight music & sound better because it ‘s a more focussed calling. The next boston dj here will be Lauryn the we ek after halloween at the Night of the Living Female DJ party at goa trash with IcyCoil and Charmaine. New at Goa Trash – art show rotating weekly – Every week we will take the trash from the d Shuttle and duct tape it t o the walls. So you can review (and sample) the detritus from the previou s weekend’s debauchery. The lights are out at 55 Lex. The situation is ra pidly deteriorating. Let’s hope they do what they need to do and get raff i out, and his back rent paid up in time for another Trancegiving – or it’ s will all be only a fond but fading memory of an attempt by what Joan Did ion would call a “desperate attempt of a handful of pathetically unequippe d children to create a community in a social vacuum.” Say a prayer that Anthony can help turn it around, but I’m willing to bet money that no one is gonna have the balls to kick rent dead beat and resident manic acid cas ualty Raffi, who is pulling the place down with him. I’ve spoken to sever al people who have the ability to help keep 55 Lex, but they need to jetti son the riff-raffi before anyone is willing to do the work.

VADIM (SUBTLECHAOS RUS/USA) Vadim, based out of New York, incorporates elements of techno, funky house, disco, electro, a nd even a little rock and roll into his trademark DJ style that gets the p arty going. Raised in many places from Moscow to Toronto and Tel-Aviv, he developed a style to fit the mood of the party. E2809CI was introduced t o electronic dance music through underground psy-trance partiesE2809D t alking about his time spent in Israel – “the scene was very underground, b ack then a generator, a mixer and a pair of PA speakers was all that was n eeded, we tried to get as far as possible into the woods to be able to go through the night undisturbed”. After being around trance and techno scene s in New York for a couple of years, he along with a group of friends star ted their own party production called SubtleChaos NYC. E2809CIn New Yor k, you get exposed to music styles from all over the placeE2809D. Minim al techno, electro as well as house dance tracks merged with underground s cene. The emerging styles became his favorite. 5 years, crates of dusty re cords and lots of unforgettable parties later, Vadim is an aspiring DJ and Producer who intends to leave his mark in the electronic music world.

Join us earlier at 7 PM for unique celebration with special three-hour Halloween Journey wit h Parashakti, TranceBreath team, and Guest Elders: Dancing to Retrieve Los t Pieces of Our Soul – Halloween TranceDance for Facing Our Fears and Dark Side. The Shaman sees the Spirits and knows how to exorcise them; he reco gnizes that the soul has fled, and is able to overtake it, in ecstasy, and return it to its body.” – Mircea Eliade, “Shamanism: Archaic Techniques of Ectasy” Every time we experience a Trauma in our life, we lose parts o f our soul. Dancing to Retrieve Lost Pieces of Our Soul, uncovers the sec rets and mysteries of ones true self. The primary goal is for the dancer to enter the void, the place of the unknown where the truth can be discovere d and the missing Soul pieces can return. We create a safe sacred space in the dance; temporarily removing one’s ego from its everyday comfort zone so that it can be introduced to a life more in Harmony with the desires of the soul, our destiny, the dance of life. But first the ego’s self image must undergo a death, a complete transformation. This dance of initiation is done in the seclusion of darkness, the doorway to bridge the Spirit wor ld and the Physical plain. It is within this opportunity that the dancer c an reflect on the reoccurring patterns, obstacles and Physical, Spiritual Emotional and Mental blockages through Dance. The body dances for its li fe, creating a prayer in motion. Advance reduced tickets to “Dancing to Re trieve Lost Pieces of Our Soul” are available for limited time at $30 unti l October 15. The $30 ticket includes free admission to the party (party b egins 10:30 PM).

There is somthin g for everyone there, but most recognize it for the special morning vibe t hats woven into each and every track. Born in Sweden, Denis got interested in music early in school. Military service, traveling around t he world, diving and kickboxing have all at different times been part of h is life since then. Later, focused on music production, he put together his own studio. Releases on Spirit Zone and Transient soon followed. His re leases were also on Medium, Spiral Trax, Flow, Novatekk, Compact, Phonokol Y.S.E, Natraj Temple, Global Trance Network, and DancenE280 99dust. Recently, Denis also put out a chill album called E2809CChilli ng MetendaE2809D. Denis has been actively involved with trance/progres sive clubs in Gothenburg, Sweden, where he also plays as a resident DJ. T he Matenda sound is undoubtedly on the minds and speakers of psytrance fol lowers across the globe. Some insights from Denis then, on Where are you now Denis, and whats doing? I am in Gothenburg, Sweden where I live and have my studio. For now I am working on some new h ot tunes. You started playing musical instruments early in lifeE280A6 was it formal training or all for fun at that point? It was only for fun in the beginning and I think its important that it is fun in thi s early age for motivation to develop it to somthing serious later on. A s many of us, you cherish the influence early electronic music had on you. Was it an inspiring experience for you years ago to hear those fresh and unconventional approaches to music and its creation? I think if you have an unconventional character you seek unconventional approaches to almost anything and when it comes to music, early electronic music was somthing very new, fresh and unconventional in a sense that the music had no border s when it first came out. Even if much of the electronic music today has l imits, the different categories of electronic music continue developing. What were some of your favorites then? I am not good at remembering speci al artist names or the names of any special tunes, but I can remember a sp ecial tune when I hear it and what impact it did to me and for sure what i nspiration it gave me for my music production. But if I have to choose one artist, its of course Jean Michel Jarre, he really gave electron ic music a face. In your early years, how did you first find yourself in the goa, psy and progressive trance movements? A friend introduced me to the new sound in early nineties and then I got hooked on these new inno vative sounds. I was always more into progressive trance and when Anti sta rted Spiral Trax records, he showed that it was possible even for Swedish producers to release this kind of music. Youve been on quite a j ourney: traveling, playing all overE280A6 how does this shape you as a person? If I was younger I would probably change as a person, but becaus e I already had my traveling experiences before I started to play I donE2 8099t think my person has changed a lot. But still whenever someone want me to come and play its fantastic that I can come and reach out to people all over with somthing that I have created. What kind of phil osophy do you follow in life? How do you think your success as an artist is a result of following these principles? I try always to be true to mys elf, and the result can be that when I make a track, I ask my self if I wo uld buy this tune in a shop, and if I would, then I am really satisfied wi th the track. I always try to have deadlines and finish what I have starte d. And if somthing doesnt work, I look forward and try to learn of my mistakes. It is important for an artist to know that you always can learn somthing new. If you think that you know everything than you are not gonna develop as a producer any further. Youve continued t o pursue education while making and playing music. Which is more importan t to you personally? I think both are important. The education is a nice guarantee in life and makes you calm. If you have alternatives in life you dont have to be frustrated if somthing doesnt work out . The difficulty to always work with music is that it can take the fun out of it. And if its not fun then you cant create nice mus ic. What sort of a mind-set, on your part, goes into the creative process when you re making music? I dont think I have any spec ial mind-set. The best is to follow the natural flow combined with inspira tion I get all around. Your previous album was chill music… Do you fin d sticking to one genre limiting to you as an artist? Do you have a wider view in music? It is very important in anything to develop and not to st agnate. It is also important to follow your natural development in music-m aking. If that is to do nice chill music or another kind of music, then of course you have to accept it and not let your self be stuck in one genre. So, yes I have a wider view in music. How is the E2809CTunnel Visionalbum doing with your fans? For now I have only got nice review s of the album, some people is saying that theres more faster tra cks and not that subtle like my first album E2809CEnergy LoaderE280 9D, but because I released the album E2809CChilling MatendaE2809D al most at the same time as Tunnel vision, I decided to separate slow easy tu nes like the ones on Chilling Matenda album with more energetic dance-orie nted tunes like the ones on the Tunnel Vision album. At parties, do you usually like to play in the morning or at some other time? I have to f ollow my music and it fits best in the early morning, even if sometimes, I would like to play earlier in night. Any new music in the works right no w? Yes, after a long vacation I am back in the studio working on some n ew tunes and the inspiration is high! Where is your performance schedule taking you over the coming months? My next performance will take place i n Stockholm, capitol city of Sweden. Other interviews at web brainmachine s,com/interviews More on Matenda can be found at web matenda.

Amer ica invented skateboards, rock and roll, surfing, and hippy culture… Ame rican and Canadian trancers offer a smaller, more intimate, and quite poss ibly less d driven environment than their overseas counterparts and fel low goa heads across the border. Organizers are collaborating like nev er before, DJs are travelling around more than ever, in a scene that is st ill small but growing in the 21st Century into a more “pure” d free org anism – without the past benefit of copius amounts of psychedelics. Tranc e will probably never be mainstream in the U.S. and that’s just the way a lot of the goa heads like it. Some want to clean it up and make it pretty for the mainstream press, and deny that psychedelics ever had a hand in t rance music’s genesis… New York’s busy open air trance gathering season is over, with dj teams from all over the east coast playing at renegades in Manhattan, culminating in PSI’s open air and d’s Burning Buddha Labor Day Weekend, both in southern New Jersey. d, the only local undergroun d open air crew currently operating in New York, finished its first full o pen air season since 2001 with a new Mackie sound system, a van, and a gen erator, all from donations. In terms of steady well attended events, as a lways, New York has somthing for everyone, with three or four events per week. Tsunami proves that Alzheimers hasn’t set in yet when it brought Sim on Posford to the Spirit space, the top floor of which is Alex Grey’s Chap el of the Sacred Mirrors (COSM) which also hosts visionary artists parties . Tsuyoshi Suzuki moved to NYC and is playing there every month. Ecliptic Trance brought Logic Bomb and Psysex and Alladin Project is brought/is br inging Wizzy Noise and Void, keeping the revolving door swinging with hig h production indoor events. Elsewhere in the east coast, coming off the ir successful Neptunalia, North Carolina’s Touch Samadhi pulled together M aataa Mandaara IV at a Hare Krishna compound in West Virginia, the same ar ea as Philadelphia’s respectable Gaian Mind. Boston’s Central Psy monthly and Psyforia are the biggest events there recently. The west coast has been a bit dead of late but its quality makes up for its lack of quantity events, Chaos Existence brought Goa Gil to Oregon. Gil has been all over the Pacific Northwest recently. SF’s Rotations is doing the Circles of Sou nd festival in NoCal Oct 22-24. Thump flexes its still-sinewy muscles wit h Shpongle and Halluconogen playing Halloween. And of course the biggest U.S. open air multigenre megafestival of the year Burning Man continues to incinerate. In Los Angeles, Green Sector did an ever growing outdoor Fou rth of Ju-Psy and teamed up with the fabled Moontribe for an open air. Ps y-tribe is bringing Joti and Olli Wisdom for Halloween. In between coast s, Texas has more people than any other state except Californians, but has a very low goa head ratio. Still it’s showing signs of life with Mistica l Productions putting together a lot of events. Most Texan events are ind oors. In late October MAGE II (Midwest Annual Goa Experience) kicks off i n Iowa. Even Arkansas is starting to happen with Spectra Inertia throwing down in the Ozarks. Florida is hosting Infected Mushroom Christmas Eve, a nd a scene is sprouting there finally. In Montreal, the Eclipse party im pressed a lot of visiting Americans with its hordes of “I don’t give a fuc k” francophones, and the Freak Patrol outfit does huge multigenre even ts with opera singers and robots. The U.S. and Canada pales in compari son to Mexico which is awash in “Psycho-Trance” (they pronounce it seeko t rance). If psychedelic trance ever makes it in the U.S., then it will p robably be imported from Mexico.

J oin us earlier at 7 PM for unique celebration with special three-hour Hall oween Journey with Parashakti, TranceBreath team, and Guest Elders: Dancin g to Retrieve Lost Pieces of Our Soul – Halloween TranceDance for Facing O ur Fears and Dark Side. The Shaman sees the Spirits and knows how to exorci se them; he recognizes that the soul has fled, and is able to overtake it, in ecstasy, and return it to its body.” – Mircea Eliade, “Shamanism: Arc haic Techniques of Ectasy” Every time we experience a Trauma in our life, we lose parts of our soul. Dancing to Retrieve Lost Pieces of Our Soul, uncovers the secrets and mysteries of ones true self. The primary goal is for the dancer to enter the void, the place of the unknown where the truth can be discovered and the missing Soul pieces can return. We create a saf e sacred space in the dance; temporarily removing one’s ego from its every day comfort zone so that it can be introduced to a life more in Harmony wi th the desires of the soul, our destiny, the dance of life. But first the ego’s self image must undergo a death, a complete transformation. This danof initiation is done in the seclusion of darkness, the doorway to brid ge the Spirit world and the Physical plain. It is within this opportunity that the dancer can reflect on the reoccurring patterns, obstacles and Ph ysical, Spiritual, Emotional and Mental blockages through Dance. The body dances for its life, creating a prayer in motion. Advance reduced tickets to “Dancing to Retrieve Lost Pieces of Our Soul” are available for limited time at $30 until October 15. The $30 ticket includes free admission to t he party (party begins 10:30 PM).

There is s omthing for everyone there, but most recognize it for the special morning vibe thats woven into each and every track. Born in Sweden, Den is got interested in music early in school. Military service, traveling a round the world, diving and kickboxing have all at different times been par t of his life since then. Later, focused on music production, he put toget her his own studio. Releases on Spirit Zone and Transient soon followed. His releases were also on Medium, Spiral Trax, Flow, Novatekk, Compact, P honokol, Y.S.E, Natraj Temple, Global Trance Network, and Dancen dust. Recently, Denis also put out a chill album called E2809C Chilling MatendaE2809D. Denis has been actively involved with trance/p rogressive clubs in Gothenburg, Sweden, where he also plays as a resident DJ. The Matenda sound is undoubtedly on the minds and speakers of psytranfollowers across the globe. Some insights from Denis then, on life. 1. Where are you now Denis, and whats doing? I am in Gothen burg, Sweden where I live and have my studio. For now I am working on some new hot tunes. 2. You started playing musical instruments early in lifeE2 80A6 was it formal training or all for fun at that point? It was only for fun in the beginning and I think its important that it is fun in this early age for motivation to develop it to somthing serious later on. 3. As many of us, you cherish the influence early electronic music had on you. Was it an inspiring experience for you years ago to hear those fr esh and unconventional approaches to music and its creation? I think if y ou have an unconventional character you seek unconventional approaches to almost anything and when it comes to music, early electronic music was som ething very new, fresh and unconventional in a sense that the music had no borders when it first came out. Even if much of the electronic music today has limits, the different categories of electronic music continue develop ing. 4. What were some of your favorites then? I am not good at rememberin g special artist names or the names of any special tunes, but I can rememb er a special tune when I hear it and what impact it did to me and for sure what inspiration it gave me for my music production. But if I have to cho ose one artist, its of course Jean Michel Jarre, he really gave e lectronic music a face. 5. In your early years, how did you first find your self in the goa, psy and progressive trance movements? A friend introduc ed me to the new sound in early nineties and then I got hooked on these ne w innovative sounds. I was always more into progressive trance and when An ti started Spiral Trax records, he showed that it was possible even for Sw edish producers to release this kind of music. 6. Youve been on qu ite a journey: traveling, playing all overE280A6 how does this shape yo u as a person? If I was younger I would probably change as a person, but because I already had my traveling experiences before I started to play I dont think my person has changed a lot. But still whenever someo ne want me to come and play its fantastic that I can come and rea ch out to people all over with somthing that I have created. 7. What kind of philosophy do you follow in life? How do you think your success as an artist is a result of following these principles? I try always to be tru e to myself, and the result can be that when I make a track, I ask my self if I would buy this tune in a shop, and if I would, then I am really sati sfied with the track. I always try to have deadlines and finish what I hav e started. And if somthing doesnt work, I look forward and try t o learn of my mistakes. It is important for an artist to know that you alwa ys can learn somthing new. If you think that you know everything than you are not gonna develop as a producer any further. 8. Youve conti nued to pursue education while making and playing music. Which is more im portant to you personally? I think both are important. The education is a nice guarantee in life and makes you calm. If you have alternatives in li fe you dont have to be frustrated if somthing doesnt wo rk out. The difficulty to always work with music is that it can take the f un out of it. And if its not fun then you cant create nimusic. 9. What sort of a mind-set, on your part, goes into the creative process when youre making music? I dont think I have an y special mind-set. The best is to follow the natural flow combined with i nspiration I get all around. 10. Your previous album was chill music… Do you find sticking to one genre limiting to you as an artist? Do you have a wider view in music? It is very important in anything to develop and n ot to stagnate. It is also important to follow your natural development in music-making. If that is to do nice chill music or another kind of music, then of course you have to accept it and not let your self be stuck in on e genre. So, yes I have a wider view in music. 11. How is the E2809CTun nel VisionE2809D album doing with your fans? For now I have only got n ice reviews of the album, some people is saying that theres more faster tracks and not that subtle like my first album E2809CEnergy Load erE2809D, but because I released the album E2809CChilling MatendaE2 809D almost at the same time as Tunnel vision, I decided to separate slo w easy tunes like the ones on Chilling Matenda album with more energetic d ance-oriented tunes like the ones on the Tunnel Vision album. 12. At part ies, do you usually like to play in the morning or at some other time? I have to follow my music and it fits best in the early morning, even if so metimes, I would like to play earlier in night. 13. Any new music in the wo rks right now? Yes, after a long vacation I am back in the studio working on some new tunes and the inspiration is high! 14. Where is your performa nce schedule taking you over the coming months? My next performance will t ake place in Stockholm, capitol city of Sweden. More on Matenda can be foun d at web matenda.

Onshe heard Psytrance/Goa she could never go back, exploring the driving sounds of trance to expand your experience on the dance floor. Her love for the music pushes her forward bringing the crowd to an emotionally charged dancing frenzy. She finds herself playing psy-trance, chill, ambient, and downtempo any chance she gets. Coral just recently moved to the city and will be making her New York debut at Karma. SPECIAL HOUSE MUSIC GUEST: Wa vewhore, has experimented with audio waveforms and styles of electronic mu sic since the early nineties. In 1991, Well Primed records released ‘The T horazine Stretch Factor’, a compilation featuring his first dive into the realm of electronic dance music titled ‘Voodoo’. This acid house song illu strated his ability to develop innovative compositions by fusing musical s tyles and applying his talent and experience as a guitarist. In 2001, he f ounded Audio Tactics, an audio production house dedicated to developing el ectronic music in styles such as breakbeat and contemporary dub. In 2002, Wavewhore’s ‘Bulletproof’, a techy and twisted drum and bass track featurin g an amen break and high-octane synth programming, was featured in a film documenting the New York drum and bass scene titled ‘Prohibited Beatz’ by Julie Covello. Wavewhore recently signed with Electrofly Records, the bre aks sub-label of Baroque Records, and the vinyl release of “Breakin’ The L aw” is slated to drop in early 2005. Other upcoming vinyl releases includ e “Foundation Dub” and “Synchronicity” on Redbud Records.As a DJ, Wavewhor e can be found delivering high energy breakbeat or chilled out dub sets at various venues in his home-town of New York City. He has performed along with local and international breaks talents such as Tipper, Jay Cunning, C ause’n’FX, Son of the Electric Ghost, DJ Miss Bliss, Sean Infinitee and DJ Tangent. He has also expressed his creative energy as a visual artist by showcasing his work in numerous New York City galleries and museums such a s Exit Art, Priska Juschka Fine Art, and The New York Historical Society. Being born in Spain and raised in Belgium, his international background ha s added diversity to his music. More recently, he has focused on producing bass heavy breakbeats and dub infused grooves which pull from his widespr ead interests in music and the visual arts. With upcoming releases on Elec trofly Records, Ism Records, Redbud Recordings, and Magal Records, Wavewho re promises to be an inspiring force in electronic music.

Once she heard Psytrance/Goa she cou ld never go back, exploring the driving sounds of trance to expand your ex perience on the dance floor. Her love for the music pushes her forward bri nging the crowd to an emotionally charged dancing frenzy. She finds hersel f playing psy-trance, chill, ambient, and downtempo any chance she gets. C oral just recently moved to the city and will be making her New York debut at Karma. Midnight – 2am SPECIAL BREAKS GUEST: Wavewhore, has experimente d with audio waveforms and styles of electronic music since the early nine ties. In 1991, Well Primed records released ‘The Thorazine Stretch Factor’ a compilation featuring his first dive into the realm of electronic danc e music titled ‘Voodoo’. This acid house song illustrated his ability to d evelop innovative compositions by fusing musical styles and applying his t alent and experience as a guitarist. In 2001, he founded Audio Tactics, an audio production house dedicated to developing electronic music in styles such as breakbeat and contemporary dub. In 2002, Wavewhore’s ‘Bulletproof ‘, a techy and twisted drum and bass track featuring an amen break and hig h-octane synth programming, was featured in a film documenting the New Yor k drum and bass scene titled ‘Prohibited Beatz’ by Julie Covello. Wavewho re recently signed with Electrofly Records, the breaks sub-label of Baroqu e Records, and the vinyl release of “Breakin’ The Law” is slated to drop i n early 2005. Other upcoming vinyl releases include “Foundation Dub” and “Synchronicity” on Redbud Records.As a DJ, Wavewhore can be found deliveri ng high energy breakbeat or chilled out dub sets at various venues in his home-town of New York City. He has performed along with local and internat ional breaks talents such as Tipper, Jay Cunning, Cause’n’FX, Son of the El ectric Ghost, DJ Miss Bliss, Sean Infinitee and DJ Tangent. He has also ex pressed his creative energy as a visual artist by showcasing his work in n umerous New York City galleries and museums such as Exit Art, Priska Jusch ka Fine Art, and The New York Historical Society. Being born in Spain and raised in Belgium, his international background has added diversity to his music. More recently, he has focused on producing bass heavy breakbeats a nd dub infused grooves which pull from his widespread interests in music a nd the visual arts. With upcoming releases on Electrofly Records, Ism Reco rds, Redbud Recordings, and Magal Records, Wavewhore promises to be an ins piring force in electronic music.

Psy choactive keys to connectivity, elicit electronic brain tricks. Poly-chemi cally altered normality, bred by secret sacred mix. Confronting preposter ous possibilities in our inexorably real mythologies, we assimilate outsta nding coincidence into collaborative correspondence. Possessive powers of sinful sorcerers infect temporal territories, allow sickness in through t he doors and tell far, far too many stories. If one has been made aware, ba ttles may rest on their fate. Between forces of hope and despair do hearts endure the fight. Slimy psychoanalytic thumbing won’t perturb the tidal of becoming. Of course we know now, the trip isn’t free; we show our tickets for the usher to see. Love now begins its saturating serendipity; faces an ticipating joyous triumph of the trippy; perfect visions from the good nigh t, immanent wellsprings of concentrated liquid light. Detailed geometry sp iraling out. Resilient wisdom settling in. Relevant knowledge spills forth. Language is lifted into hurricane of emotional events. The spiral’s eye se es a butterfly god, and the octopus at the end of time dances discerningly. Rhythms drape active desires as layers of syrupy circuits. Elegant goddes ses of ganja and grace dance in dimensions of light and of space. Hypertech seraphim, cherubim and pixies Spin, leap and slide amidst tall mushroom ci ties. Star-traveling munchkins in neuro-playgrounds Laugh and cheer when co mmunication turns into sounds. Fun-loving critters made of luminosity and l anguage Goof around with objectivity and make you a time sandwich. Fungi, mosses and carnivorous plants, hosted by elders of symmetry Knowingly disc ussing age-old plans with planetary vocabulary. In miniscule macrocosms rev ealing revolutions one eventually realizes resounding resolutions. Farfet ched daydreams are closer to reality. Refracted moonbeams beckon causality Into and back again, entwined in stretching Indigo operations, blueprints and mystical light meshing. Cascading symbols, totems and codes. Deep dark ness so absorbent it glows. -Evan The Reality of the Psyche By Daniel Pin chbeck A few months ago, I attended the Burning Man festival, in the Black Rock desert of Nevada, for the fifth time in a row. Burning Man has been called the world’s biggest party, but I don’t even know if I have “fun” at Burning Man in any ordinary sense – being there is incredibly intense, a kind of psychophysical endurance test. Despite the difficulties, I will co ntinue to return as long as it is possible to do so. The gathering acts as an enormous shamanic transformer, constellating new insights and clearing away old junk. I chose to go to Burning Man instead of staying in New Yor k for the protests surrounding the Republican Convention. My increasing su spicion is that traditional forms of protest, at this point, are only play ing into the hands of the security apparatus. The police and military get the opportunity to test out their latest tactics and shiniest gadgets, whi le the corporate media finds the most incendiary images to broadcast acros s the US, amping up the anxiety. The catharsis that protestors get from ye lling slogans across barbed wire barriers and out of “free speech pens” mi ght be energy that could be more creatively invested in other ways. As th e corporate and governmental superstructure continue a lockstep march towa rds their own self-destruction, their attempts to pulverize the collective psyche into submission becomes more transparent and overt. Electrical curr ents of spite and anxiety ripple across our public discourse and private l ives. The individual’s refusal to fall into these traps or accept this neg ative conditioning can be a great liberation. At Burning Man, I kept think ing that the most meaningful political act, right now, is to continue cult ivating fearlessness in pursuit of joy. To be fearless, calm, and joyful i s to jam a wrench into the “Brave New 1984” technodystopic machinery that is seeking to impose itself on our world. I consider the current sociopol itical abyss to be a kind of evolutionary tool. The control apparatus of m odern society may be functioning as a training ground for a new level of c onsciousness. Many different thinkers of the Twentieth Century, as well as the prophecies of archaic and indigenous spiritual traditions, have propo sed that a major change in human consciousness is imminent. This has been articulated in various ways. Before his death in 1961, the psychoanalyst C arl Jung saw that the “reality of the psyche,” repressed by the modern men tality, would soon become unavoidable. Mankind was being forced to climb ” to a higher moral level, to a higher plane of consciousness,” to handle “th e superhuman powers which the fallen angels” had dropped into our hands. The Austrian visionary Rudolf Steiner (founder of Anthroposophy and Waldorf education) claimed that the mission of his life on Earth was to return th e knowledge of reincarnation to the West. According to Steiner, individual human beings reincarnate again and again, and the Earth itself passes thr ough successive incarnations. He considered this phase to be the fourth in carnation of the Earth. Steiner thought we are approaching a fifth incarna tion, the “Jupiter state,” where humanity would evolve new capacities and reach a new level of wisdom – actually, not just humans. According to Stei ner, the plant and mineral kingdom would reach a higher level of conscious ness during this next incarnation, while humanity would split into several different “human kingdoms,” undergoing different forms of evolution. The Indian philosopher Sri Aurobindo also felt that we were moving towards a new level or intensity of consciousness. In one of his last essays, The Min d of Light, he defined this as the “supramental” state. Just as life had self-organized out of matter, and mind had self-organized out of life, cons ciousness would evolve beyond the obscurations and ignorance of our curren t condition – to attain a level of truth-consciousness, and spiritual awar eness, that could not be manipulated or fooled. Aurobindo speculated that our evolution would accelerate exponentially from that point. Once we had reached this supramental state, this truth-consciousness, we would be able to transform our physical reality and our bodies. “Man,” Aurobindo wrote, “is a transitional being.” The powers unleashed by technology might be re integrated into the psyche, at a higher level of development. As counteri ntuitive as it may seem at first, I propose that our current environment, saturated with noise and chaos and fear-mongering, is the necessary backgr ound for attaining this supramental condition, for accepting and mastering the reality of the psyche. The new mindset stems from a fearless curiosity and hunger for truth, and a rejection of the cynicism and negative progra mming foisted upon it by the corporate-controlled media and current power structure. The new intensity of consciousness accepts the reality of psych ic and occult levels of reality, denied by modern materialism, but integra tes this understanding with a scientific, pragmatic, and empirical approac h to existence. As a speaker at Burning Man pointed out, it is not “New Ag e,” but “New Edge.” My hypothesis is that at least a portion of humanity a ttains this level of “supramental” consciousness – including, as Aurobindo proposes, an accelerated evolution – as we approach the year 2012, prophe sied by the Mayans as the end of the 5,125-year “Great Cycle” of human his tory. Despite current appearances, we are on the verge of a transition int o a new intensity of human consciousness that will institute an harmonic a nd utopian situation on the Earth. This thesis is not mine alone – it is c arefully elaborated by Carl Johann Calleman, among others, in his new book The Mayan Calendar and the Transformation of Consciousness (Bear & Co.). This book supports the basic ideas of the writers Jose Arguelles and John Major Jenkins – a new outsider paradigm is crystallizing. Calleman, a bio logist who has worked with the World Health Organization, considers the de velopment of human consciousness to be an organic process akin to fetal de velopment. Chemical signals are transmitted to the fetus in an incredibly complex and perfectly orchestrated sequence. The proposal made by Arguelle s, Calleman, and others, is that the evolution of human consciousness on Ea rth follows a similar process on a planetary scale, and we are currently approaching the birth of the higher mind, or noosphere, of the Earth. After many years of research, Calleman as well as Arguelles understand the Maya n Calendar to be a synchronically-attuned device that indicates the year-b y-year changes, in this final period, leading to the inevitable phase-tran sition of human consciousness. The run-up to the 2012 transition appears, necessarily, as universal capitulation and collapse – just as birth is a messy process that would appear horrific to the uninformed observer. Accor ding to Calleman’s study of the Mayan Calendar, the global economy – and w ith it, the materialist paradigm currently holding the collective psyche a t a certain level of development – will collapse around 2007 – 2008. Right now, we are being forced to witness the shadow of the psyche projected in to material form through systemic misuse of technology, biospheric destruc tion, as well as our current political farce. During the transition, thing s seem to be getting simultaneously – paradoxically – much better and much worse. Time itself seems to be changing form, accelerating, as events fol low each other at breakneck pace. Obviously, it is a difficult leap for mo st people to accept the possibility that the Maya had a deeper understandi ng of time – as a synchronic order, rather than a simple linear extension – than we currently possess. However, it seems to me that any impartial st udy of the current world situation makes it obvious that the current socia l and political paradigm is unsustainable, even in the short term. We are depleting and burning out our global resources at an ever-accelerating rat e. A cynical or nihilistic perspective on the imminent fate of our species is, of course, plausible, but unproductive. An alternate perspective sees the destruction of the biosphere – and the development of technology – as byproducts of the psychospiritual evolution of humanity, bringing us to a new form or phase-state of consciousness. One of the most beautiful aspec ts of Burning Man is the wide-open expanse of the desert itself, which see ms to represent the infinite potential available to the liberated human im agination. While I was bicycling across the playa one night, enjoying the laser lights and carnival displays of the festival from a distance, I thou ght that the shift to a new planetary culture, and a new form of nonhierar chical social organization matching our new level of mind, does not have t o be a cataclysmic or destructive one. The transition could occur in a man ner similar to the collapse of the Berlin Wall and the Soviet Empire – a s udden piffle, and a shocking surrender. However, for this to happen, the ne w paradigm must already be in place, at least as an undercurrent. Lacking a model or an imprint, the collapse of the current system will result in a world resembling that of the Road Warrior films, without the occasional f lickers of irony. If we can make the transition to a truly rational plane tary culture based on compassion, generosity, and dharmic principles, this will inspire a change in our basic conception of science. Rather than see king to resolve dualisms and institute some final “Theory of Everything,” the science of post-history will embrace and explore paradox, going deeper into conundrums, relinquishing delusory attempts to achieve closure. Supe rstring physics describes a universe of nine, ten, or eleven dimensions. I f reality is, as Buddhism proposes, actually maya, a projection of subtler levels of the psyche, then we may come to accept that the extradimensiona l object or hypercube described by physics is the psyche itself, in its fu ll multidimensions. I suggest that the planes or surfaces of this object c an be incorporated into awareness as the various vectors or intervals or v ibrational field-effects experienced in non-ordinary states – induced by p sychoactive substances, meditations, dreams, shamanic trances, and so on. Different psychedelics open “lines of flight” or ingressions across the ex tra-dimensional object that is the psyche itself. When we have matured to the point that we can accept the “reality of the psyche,” investigating th ese areas will be recognized as natural and even essential to expanding th e parameters of human understanding. The science and art of post-history w ill be dedicated to exploring the numinous paradoxes of psychic reality. I nstead of seeking closure, we will open new possibilities and explore infi nite new realms. Multiculturism Fails in the Netherlands Since so many on this list just love to bash the US – I thought a change of subject was in o rder. Over the last many years I’ve been on the list I have heard a number of Dutch listees lament about the “invasion” of some not-so-nice people fro m the Muslim type areas. I found the following to be very interesting since it also speaks to the US’s obssession with “multiculturalism” and cow-towi ng liberalism. – I am sure all of you are aware of the “silencing” of Mr. Van Gough By Stephen Brown November 12, 2004 The recent assassination of Dutch author and moviemaker, Theo van Gough, by a Muslim extremist in Amst erdam should come as no surprise to those familiar with the condition of mu lticulturalism in Holland. Earlier this year, the Dutch government became t he first Western state to admit that the multicultural experiment, the bigg est socialist fraud ever to be foisted on countries since the Soviet one, i s a colossal failure. This admission came in the form of an all-party par liamentary report that basically concluded, among other things, that Muslim immigrants, who make up almost one million of Hollands 16 million inhabitants, are refusing to integrate. These immigrants, largely concentr ated in the cities where they constitute a large percentage of urban popula tions such as in Rotterdam, choose to live together in their own g hettos where they have built up parallel societies to that of the host country. And it is not going to get better. According to the report, b etween 70 and 80 per cent of Dutch-born immigrants, mostly from Morocco and Turkey, refuse to intermarry with native-born Dutch and are importing thei r spouses from their home countries. Ironically, it is the emphasis Dutch governments have placed on multiculturalism that has helped lead to its ine vitable downfall. The report states that, in planning their perfec t society, the biggest mistake the lib-left multiculturalists made was to have immigrant children educated in their own languages, which has resulted in an ethnic separatism in society. This voluntary apartheid from the mainstream has reached the point where it is dangerous for white Europe ans to venture into some immigrant neighborhoods where they are regarded as either E2809Can enemy or victim.E2809D The growth of this parallel w orld has also corresponded with a growth in discomfort among the native Dut ch toward the newcomers and a loss of a feeling of security, which is large ly due to the new immigrants propensity for crime, violence and ov errepresentation in the criminal system. The report concludes that the eth nic ghettos must be broken up and the immigrants made to become Dutch if th e country is not to come apart. But it is probably already too late for th at. In the first place, trying to break up the Muslim ghettoes would be lik e trying to dissolve San Franciscos Chinatown or New York s Harlem. Secondly, there is the little problem of Muslim fundamentalism th at the dangerously naC3AFve multiculturalists have let into the country l ike the proverbial wolf into the sheepfold. A substantial portion of the M uslim population Holland has imported since the sixties, while not violent, abhors Dutch society, the most liberal in all of Europe. Many of these new immigrants hold in disdain womens rights, freedom of expression, homosexuality, ds and all the other trappings of Dutch liberalism, and b elieve their way of life and beliefs are superior to those of their host co untry. In fact, such immigrants are not averse to replacing the co rrupt Dutch system with sharia, but by legal, non-violent means. More importantly, though, for Hollands existence, this population also contains a minority of Islamist fanatics, such as the one who killed van Gogh, who want to replace the Dutch system with an Islamic theocracy by violent means, kill all the unbelievers in the country and wage jihad to t he ends of the earth. It did not help that the Dutch government assisted in funding some radical mosques that indoctrinated young Dutch Muslims into t heir way of hatred, while Saudi Arabia supported others (no surprise there) . Dutch Muslims have been found on the battlefield in Kashmir and elsewherebut they may soon not have to leave home to fight the Holy War. A letter van Goghs assassin left on his victims body says there wi ll be more killings. There are also indications that Islamists are organi zing a European army. According to one report, hundreds of European Muslims received military training in Afghanistan and returned home to train hundr eds more. They apparently have been buying weapons on the Eastern European black market and have even rented isolated tourist resorts to conduct train ing sessions. So the underground intelligence war going on all over Europe may soon turn hot, and the assassination of van Gogh may have been its firs t shot. Such an Islamist crusade would most likely take the form of an I.R. A.-style guerilla war where the multiculturalism-created ghettoes, like the Catholic ones in Northern Ireland, would serve both as bases and as hideou ts. And it is not as if the people in Holland can rely on the law to prot ect them. Like in other western countries, it has been twisted and weakened so badly the last 30 years to match leftist ideology that it is sometimes a hindrance in combating the Islamist danger. Legal technicalities, for exa mple, prevented the conviction of 12 Dutch Muslims last year for providing support to a North African terrorist organization, while another four Islam ist terrorists, accused of planning to bomb the U.S. embassy in Paris, walk ed out of a Rotterdam court free men in 2002. And even after the Dutch parl iament voted to expel 26,000 failed refugee claimants last February, Europe s first mass expulsion of such people, the Justice Ministry had to admit that if they did not accept the free flight home and a cash bonus, m any would have to be let loose on Hollands streets because of huma n rights laws. And what is the response of the oh-so-clever Dutch leftist s to the multicultural mess they have created? Like after the collapse of c ommunism in Eastern Europe, they have been either silent or offered only mo re of the same. The truth be told, they do not know what to do and are simp ly engaging in helpless, useless gestures, as reports come in this week of retaliatory attacks for van Goghs death against mosques and a Musl im school. But one observer of Dutch society, interviewed by a European n ewspaper, says there was already a furtive and creeping migration of the Du tch elite and of money out of Holland before van Goghs murder beca use of the E2809CMoroccan threat.E2809D And if the situation begins t o spiral out of control, you can definitely expect more progressiv e rats to abandon the Dutch ship of state they were so instrumenta l in sinking. ansi-language: EN-US; EN-US; bidi-language: AR-SA n’; ansi-language: EN-US; EN-US; bidi-languagansi-language: EN-US; EN-US; bidi-language: words of God, and knew the knowledge of the most High, / Iwhich saw the vision of the Almighty, falling int p keep TripOutNY free, fertile, and independent!!

November 17th – Wednesday – Terence McKenna’s Birthday at Goa Trash at Karma with DJs Wavewhore (NYC) at 12am and Coral (Touch Samadhi, Virginia) Midnight & Mayur 2am – 4am DJ CORAL (Touch Samadhi) Coral first started DJ’ing in 1999 in Eugene, Oregon. Once she heard Psytrance/Goa sh e could never go back, exploring the driving sounds of trance to expand yo ur experience on the dance floor. Her love for the music pushes her forwar d bringing the crowd to an emotionally charged dancing frenzy. She finds h erself playing psy-trance, chill, ambient, and downtempo any chance she ge ts. Coral just recently moved to the city and will be making her New York debut at Karma. Midnight – 2am SPECIAL BREAKS GUEST: Wavewhore, has experi mented with audio waveforms and styles of electronic music since the early nineties. In 1991, Well Primed records released ‘The Thorazine Stretch Fa ctor’, a compilation featuring his first dive into the realm of electronic dance music titled ‘Voodoo’. This acid house song illustrated his ability to develop innovative compositions by fusing musical styles and applying his talent and experience as a guitarist. In 2001, he founded Audio Tactic s, an audio production house dedicated to developing electronic music in s tyles such as breakbeat and contemporary dub. In 2002, Wavewhore’s ‘Bullet proof’, a techy and twisted drum and bass track featuring an amen break an d high-octane synth programming, was featured in a film documenting the Ne w York drum and bass scene titled ‘Prohibited Beatz’ by Julie Covello. Wa vewhore recently signed with Electrofly Records, the breaks sub-label of B aroque Records, and the vinyl release of “Breakin’ The Law” is slated to d rop in early 2005. Other upcoming vinyl releases include “Foundation Dub” and “Synchronicity” on Redbud Records.As a DJ, Wavewhore can be found del ivering high energy breakbeat or chilled out dub sets at various venues in his home-town of New York City. He has performed along with local and int ernational breaks talents such as Tipper, Jay Cunning, Cause’n’FX, Son of t he Electric Ghost, DJ Miss Bliss, Sean Infinitee and DJ Tangent. He has al so expressed his creative energy as a visual artist by showcasing his work in numerous New York City galleries and museums such as Exit Art, Priska Juschka Fine Art, and The New York Historical Society. Being born in Spain and raised in Belgium, his international background has added diversity t o his music. More recently, he has focused on producing bass heavy breakbe ats and dub infused grooves which pull from his widespread interests in mu sic and the visual arts. With upcoming releases on Electrofly Records, Ism Records, Redbud Recordings, and Magal Records, Wavewhore promises to be a n inspiring force in electronic music.

Call the Reality of the Psyche By Daniel Pinchbeck A few months ago, I attended the Burning Man festival, in the Black Rock desert of Nevada, for the fifth time in a row. Burning Man has been called the world’s biggest party, but I don’t even know if I have “fun” at Burni ng Man in any ordinary sense – being there is incredibly intense, a kind o f psychophysical endurance test. Despite the difficulties, I will continue to return as long as it is possible to do so. The gathering acts as an en ormous shamanic transformer, constellating new insights and clearing away old junk. I chose to go to Burning Man instead of staying in New York for the protests surrounding the Republican Convention. My increasing suspicio n is that traditional forms of protest, at this point, are only playing in to the hands of the security apparatus. The police and military get the op portunity to test out their latest tactics and shiniest gadgets, while the corporate media finds the most incendiary images to broadcast across the US, amping up the anxiety. The catharsis that protestors get from yelling slogans across barbed wire barriers and out of “free speech pens” might be energy that could be more creatively invested in other ways. As the corp orate and governmental superstructure continue a lockstep march towards th eir own self-destruction, their attempts to pulverize the collective psych e into submission becomes more transparent and overt. Electrical currents of spite and anxiety ripple across our public discourse and private lives. The individual’s refusal to fall into these traps or accept this negative conditioning can be a great liberation. At Burning Man, I kept thinking th at the most meaningful political act, right now, is to continue cultivatin g fearlessness in pursuit of joy. To be fearless, calm, and joyful is to j am a wrench into the “Brave New 1984” technodystopic machinery that is see king to impose itself on our world. I consider the current sociopolitical abyss to be a kind of evolutionary tool. The control apparatus of modern society may be functioning as a training ground for a new level of conscio usness. Many different thinkers of the Twentieth Century, as well as the p rophecies of archaic and indigenous spiritual traditions, have proposed th at a major change in human consciousness is imminent. This has been articu lated in various ways. Before his death in 1961, the psychoanalyst Carl Ju ng saw that the “reality of the psyche,” repressed by the modern mentality would soon become unavoidable. Mankind was being forced to climb “to a h igher moral level, to a higher plane of consciousness,” to handle “the sup erhuman powers which the fallen angels” had dropped into our hands. The Au strian visionary Rudolf Steiner (founder of Anthroposophy and Waldorf educ ation) claimed that the mission of his life on Earth was to return the kno wledge of reincarnation to the West. According to Steiner, individual human beings reincarnate again and again, and the Earth itself passes through successive incarnations. He considered this phase to be the fourth incarnat ion of the Earth. Steiner thought we are approaching a fifth incarnation, the “Jupiter state,” where humanity would evolve new capacities and reach a new level of wisdom – actually, not just humans. According to Steiner, t he plant and mineral kingdom would reach a higher level of consciousness d uring this next incarnation, while humanity would split into several diffe rent “human kingdoms,” undergoing different forms of evolution. The India n philosopher Sri Aurobindo also felt that we were moving towards a new le vel or intensity of consciousness. In one of his last essays, The Mind of Light, he defined this as the “supramental” state. Just as life had self-o rganized out of matter, and mind had self-organized out of life, consciousn ess would evolve beyond the obscurations and ignorance of our current cond ition – to attain a level of truth-consciousness, and spiritual awareness, that could not be manipulated or fooled. Aurobindo speculated that our ev olution would accelerate exponentially from that point. Once we had reache d this supramental state, this truth-consciousness, we would be able to tr ansform our physical reality and our bodies. “Man,” Aurobindo wrote, “is a transitional being.” The powers unleashed by technology might be reintegr ated into the psyche, at a higher level of development. As counterintuiti ve as it may seem at first, I propose that our current environment, satura ted with noise and chaos and fear-mongering, is the necessary background f or attaining this supramental condition, for accepting and mastering the r eality of the psyche. The new mindset stems from a fearless curiosity and hunger for truth, and a rejection of the cynicism and negative programming foisted upon it by the corporate-controlled media and current power struct ure. The new intensity of consciousness accepts the reality of psychic and occult levels of reality, denied by modern materialism, but integrates th is understanding with a scientific, pragmatic, and empirical approach to e xistence. As a speaker at Burning Man pointed out, it is not “New Age,” bu t “New Edge.” My hypothesis is that at least a portion of humanity attains this level of “supramental” consciousness – including, as Aurobindo propo ses, an accelerated evolution – as we approach the year 2012, prophesied b y the Mayans as the end of the 5,125-year “Great Cycle” of human history. Despite current appearances, we are on the verge of a transition into a ne w intensity of human consciousness that will institute an harmonic and uto pian situation on the Earth. This thesis is not mine alone – it is careful ly elaborated by Carl Johann Calleman, among others, in his new book, The Mayan Calendar and the Transformation of Consciousness (Bear & Co.). This book supports the basic ideas of the writers Jose Arguelles and John Major Jenkins – a new outsider paradigm is crystallizing. Calleman, a biologist who has worked with the World Health Organization, considers the developm ent of human consciousness to be an organic process akin to fetal developm ent. Chemical signals are transmitted to the fetus in an incredibly comple x and perfectly orchestrated sequence. The proposal made by Arguelles, Cal leman, and others, is that the evolution of human consciousness on Earth f ollows a similar process on a planetary scale, and we are currently approa ching the birth of the higher mind, or noosphere, of the Earth. After many years of research, Calleman as well as Arguelles understand the Mayan Cale ndar to be a synchronically-attuned device that indicates the year-by-year changes, in this final period, leading to the inevitable phase-transition of human consciousness. The run-up to the 2012 transition appears, neces sarily, as universal capitulation and collapse – just as birth is a messy process that would appear horrific to the uninformed observer. According t o Calleman’s study of the Mayan Calendar, the global economy – and with it the materialist paradigm currently holding the collective psyche at artain level of development – will collapse around 2007 – 2008. Right now, we are being forced to witness the shadow of the psyche projected into mat erial form through systemic misuse of technology, biospheric destruction, as well as our current political farce. During the transition, things seem to be getting simultaneously – paradoxically – much better and much worse . Time itself seems to be changing form, accelerating, as events follow ea ch other at breakneck pace. Obviously, it is a difficult leap for most peo ple to accept the possibility that the Maya had a deeper understanding of time – as a synchronic order, rather than a simple linear extension – than we currently possess. However, it seems to me that any impartial study of the current world situation makes it obvious that the current social and political paradigm is unsustainable, even in the short term. We are deplet ing and burning out our global resources at an ever-accelerating rate. A c ynical or nihilistic perspective on the imminent fate of our species is, o f course, plausible, but unproductive. An alternate perspective sees the d estruction of the biosphere – and the development of technology – as bypro ducts of the psychospiritual evolution of humanity, bringing us to a new f orm or phase-state of consciousness. One of the most beautiful aspects of Burning Man is the wide-open expanse of the desert itself, which seems to represent the infinite potential available to the liberated human imaginat ion. While I was bicycling across the playa one night, enjoying the laser lights and carnival displays of the festival from a distance, I thought th at the shift to a new planetary culture, and a new form of nonhierarchical social organization matching our new level of mind, does not have to be a cataclysmic or destructive one. The transition could occur in a manner si milar to the collapse of the Berlin Wall and the Soviet Empire – a sudden piffle, and a shocking surrender. However, for this to happen, the new par adigm must already be in place, at least as an undercurrent. Lacking a mode l or an imprint, the collapse of the current system will result in a world resembling that of the Road Warrior films, without the occasional flicker s of irony. If we can make the transition to a truly rational planetary c ulture based on compassion, generosity, and dharmic principles, this will inspire a change in our basic conception of science. Rather than seeking t o resolve dualisms and institute some final “Theory of Everything,” the sc ience of post-history will embrace and explore paradox, going deeper into conundrums, relinquishing delusory attempts to achieve closure. Superstrin g physics describes a universe of nine, ten, or eleven dimensions. If real ity is, as Buddhism proposes, actually maya, a projection of subtler level s of the psyche, then we may come to accept that the extradimensional obje ct or hypercube described by physics is the psyche itself, in its full mul tidimensions. I suggest that the planes or surfaces of this object can be incorporated into awareness as the various vectors or intervals or vibrati onal field-effects experienced in non-ordinary states – induced by psychoa ctive substances, meditations, dreams, shamanic trances, and so on. Differ ent psychedelics open “lines of flight” or ingressions across the extra-di mensional object that is the psyche itself. When we have matured to the po int that we can accept the “reality of the psyche,” investigating these ar eas will be recognized as natural and even essential to expanding the para meters of human understanding. The science and art of post-history will be dedicated to exploring the numinous paradoxes of psychic reality. Instead of seeking closure, we will open new possibilities and explore infinite n ew realms. Multiculturism Fails in the Netherlands Since so many on this list just love to bash the US – I thought a change of subject was in order. Over the last many years I’ve been on the list I have heard a number of Du tch listees lament about the “invasion” of some not-so-nice people from the Muslim type areas. I found the following to be very interesting since it a lso speaks to the US’s obssession with “multiculturalism” and cow-towing li beralism. – I am sure all of you are aware of the “silencing” of Mr. Van G ough By Stephen Brown November 12, 2004 The recent assassination of Dutc h author and moviemaker, Theo van Gough, by a Muslim extremist in Amsterdam should come as no surprise to those familiar with the condition of multicu lturalism in Holland. Earlier this year, the Dutch government became the fi rst Western state to admit that the multicultural experiment, the biggest s ocialist fraud ever to be foisted on countries since the Soviet one, is a c olossal failure. This admission came in the form of an all-party parliame ntary report that basically concluded, among other things, that Muslim immi grants, who make up almost one million of Holland’s 16 million inhabitants, are refusing to integrate. These immigrants, largely concentrated in the c ities where they constitute a large percentage of urban populations such as in Rotterdam, choose to live together in their own “ghettos” where they ha ve built up parallel societies to that of the host country. And it is not g oing to get better. According to the report, between 70 and 80 per cent of Dutch-born immigrants, mostly from Morocco and Turkey, refuse to intermarry with native-born Dutch and are importing their spouses from their home cou ntries. Ironically, it is the emphasis Dutch governments have placed on mu lticulturalism that has helped lead to its inevitable downfall. The report states that, in planning their C’Cperfect society, the biggest mistake t he lib-left multiculturalists made was to have immigrant children educated in their own languages, which has resulted in an ethnic separatism in socie ty. This voluntary apartheid from the mainstream has reached the point wher e it is dangerous for white Europeans to venture into some immigrant neighb orhoods where they are regarded as either C3A2E282ACC593an enemy or victim.C3A2E282AC9D The growth of this parallel world has also cor responded with a growth in discomfort among the native Dutch toward the new comers and a loss of a feeling of security, which is largely due to the new immigrants’ propensity for crime, violence and overrepresentation in the c riminal system. The report concludes that the ethnic ghettos must be broke n up and the immigrants made to become Dutch if the country is not to come apart. But it is probably already too late for that. In the first place, t rying to break up the Muslim ghettoes would be like trying to dissolve San Francisco’s Chinatown or New York’s Harlem. Secondly, there is the little p roblem of Muslim fundamentalism that the dangerously naive multiculturalist s have let into the country like the proverbial wolf into the sheepfold. A substantial portion of the Muslim population Holland has imported since th e sixties, while not violent, abhors Dutch society, the most liberal in all of Europe. Many of these new immigrants hold in disdain womens rights, fre edom of expression, homosexuality, ds and all the other trappings of Dut ch liberalism, and believe their way of life and beliefs are superior to th ose of their host country. In fact, such immigrants are not averse to repla cing the corrupt Dutch system with sharia, but by legal, non-violent means. More importantly, though, for Holland’s existence, this population also contains a minority of Islamist fanatics, such as the one who killed van Go gh, who want to replace the Dutch system with an Islamic theocracy by viole nt means, kill all the unbelievers in the country and wage jihad to the end s of the earth. It did not help that the Dutch government assisted in fundi ng some radical mosques that indoctrinated young Dutch Muslims into their w ay of hatred, while Saudi Arabia supported others (no surprise there). Dutc h Muslims have been found on the battlefield in Kashmir and elsewhere; but they may soon not have to leave home to fight the Holy War. A letter van Go gh’s assassin left on his victim’s body says there will be more killings. There are also indications that Islamists are organizing a European army. According to one report, hundreds of European Muslims received military tra ining in Afghanistan and returned home to train hundreds more. They apparen tly have been buying weapons on the Eastern European black market and have even rented isolated tourist resorts to conduct training sessions. So the u nderground intelligence war going on all over Europe may soon turn hot, and the assassination of van Gogh may have been its first shot. Such an Islami st crusade would most likely take the form of an I.R.A.-style guerilla war where the multiculturalism-created ghettoes, like the Catholic ones in Nort hern Ireland, would serve both as bases and as hideouts. And it is not as if the people in Holland can rely on the law to protect them. Like in othe r western countries, it has been twisted and weakened so badly the last 30 years to match leftist ideology that it is sometimes a hindrance in combati ng the Islamist danger. Legal technicalities, for example, prevented the co nviction of 12 Dutch Muslims last year for providing support to a North Afr ican terrorist organization, while another four Islamist terrorists, accuse d of planning to bomb the U.S. embassy in Paris, walked out of a Rotterdam court free men in 2002. And even after the Dutch parliament voted to expel 26,000 failed refugee claimants last February, Europe’s first mass expulsio n of such people, the Justice Ministry had to admit that if they did not ac cept the free flight home and a cash bonus, many would have to be let loose on Holland’s streets because of human rights laws. And what is the respo nse of the oh-so-clever Dutch leftists to the multicultural mess they have created? Like after the collapse of communism in Eastern Europe, they have been either silent or offered only more of the same. The truth be told, the y do not know what to do and are simply engaging in helpless, useless gestu res, as reports come in this week of retaliatory attacks for van Gogh’s dea th against mosques and a Muslim school. But one observer of Dutch society interviewed by a European newspaper, says there was already a furtive and creeping migration of the Dutch elite and of money out of Holland before v an Gogh’s murder because of the Moroccan threat. And if the situation begin s to spiral out of control, you can definitely expect more progressive rats to abandon the Dutch ship of state they were so instrumental in sinking. 38302 Trip Out New York Circ.1,311 Antagonizing assholes since 1996 Free NYC Trance Community Weekly Newsletter Edit om Forward/reprint to spread the psytrance virus To receive, email h S Numbers 24, verse 16 “He hath said, which heard the words of God, and knew the knowledge of the most High, which saw the vision of the A lmighty, falling into a trance, but having his eyes open” Help keep TripOut NY free, fertile, and independent!!

McKenna, the founder of Novelty Theory, graduated from the University of California at Berkeley with a distributed major in Ecology, Resource Conservation and Shamanism. After graduating he traveled extensively in the Asian and New World Tropics, and become an expert in the shamanism and ethno-medicine of the Amazon Basin. With his brother Dennis, he authored “The Invisible Landscape” and “Psilocybin : The Magic Mushroom Growers’ Guide”. His study of the impact of psychot ropic plants on human culture and evolution, “Food of the Gods”, was rece ntly published by Bantam, and a book of essays and conversations, “The Ar chaic Revival” quickly followed from Harper San Francisco. Most recently his collection of discursive chats, “Trialogues at the Edge of the West “, along with mathematician Ralph Abraham and British biologist Rupert Sh eldrake, has been published in English, German, French and Spanish editio ns. His most recent work, “True Hallucinations”, is a narrative of his s piritual adventure in the jungles of the Colombian Amazon. He also recen tly appeared on a number of CDs and live performances with musical groups such as The Shamen, Zuvuya in England and Space/Time in San Francisco. Terence Mckenna spent his last years living in Hawaii, where he divided h is time between writing and lecturing about modeling historical processes using Novelty Theory, a branch of fractal dynamics he invented. Terence McKenna passed away in 2000, leaving behind his two children. “IE280 99ll try to be around and about.

Moving over t ainmachines/manwithavan Terence McKenna Bio Born in 1946, author and explorer Terence McKenna spent twenty-five years studying of the ontological found ations of shamanism and the ethno-pharmacology of spiritual transformation . McKenna, the founder of Novelty Theory, graduated from the Univers ity of California at Berkeley with a distributed major in Ecology, Resourc e Conservation and Shamanism. After graduating, he traveled extensiv ely in the Asian and New World Tropics, and become an expert in the shaman ism and ethno-medicine of the Amazon Basin. With his brother Dennis, he authored “The Invisible Landscape” and “Psilocybin: The Magic Mushroom Growers’ Guide”. His study of the impact of psychotropic plants on human culture and evolution, “Food of the Gods”, was recently published by Bantam, and a book of essays and conversations, “The Archaic Revival” quic kly followed from Harper San Francisco. Most recently, his collectio n of discursive chats, “Trialogues at the Edge of the West”, along with ma thematician Ralph Abraham and British biologist Rupert Sheldrake, has been published in English, German, French and Spanish editions. His most recent work, “True Hallucinations”, is a narrative of his spiritual adven ture in the jungles of the Colombian Amazon. He also recently appear ed on a number of CDs and live performances with musical groups such as Th e Shamen, Zuvuya in England and Space/Time in San Francisco. Terence Mckenna spent his last years living in Hawaii, where he divided his time between writing and lecturing about modeling historical processes using No velty Theory, a branch of fractal dynamics he invented. Terence McKe nna passed away in 2000, leaving behind his two children. “IE280 99ll try to be around and about. But if Im not, then you know th at Im behind your eyelids, and Ill meet you there.”

Maybe we should join him.. Ha h a, Ashcroft did his best to stop it. But he couldn’t support religious f reedom – for Judeo-Christians only. This is a big world, and hats off to the Supreme Court for upholding values this country was founded on. Wow. This is big news. This is great news. Yay Bronfman clan you go boys! ! Order a Seagram’s next time at the bar… They made it happen. This is a cause for celebration!!! I have consumed the brew many many times and it c enters me and reconnects me with nature. I can say without irony that it brings me closer to the Godhead and my Christian beliefs do not suffer c onflicting wariness or guilt. It’s takes me to other dimensions any othe r psychedelics have never taken me. I feel the positive effects for a we ek or two after imbibing. As a native American once said, Red man medicin e tastes bitter at first, then feels good afterwards, unlike Western “me dicine” But before everyone goes off and has a tea party, only recognized, established ayahuasca drinking religions, i.e. the brazillian Daime and the UDV are allowed to partake. (One of these relisgions was founded by rubber plantation owners who drank once with the locals and turned their land back into jungle!) Maybe we should all follow Daniel Pinchbeck’s lea d and go to church! Or, we should work to create our own plant-centered religious group free of Christian/Catholic influence. Maybe that’s a la udable nonprofit goal for 2005. Imagine the d, the Devotional Ministry of Trance, administering ayahuasca legally as part of a sacrament. Lega lly. This may well help save the rainforest. In Hollywood, this may be th e next Scientology!!! You heard it here first. Can anyone imagine a legal licensed d religious event ending in psychedelic trance hymns? I thi nk we can put all d dealers out of business. And liquor and tobacco, take THAT big business! AH, new goals… (To celebrate and spread the new s, and to cash in (LOL) on this new phenomenon we are bringing Brazillian psychedelic trance djs to Karma this Wednesday, and Nan and I will repri nt a lot of handout material on this subject.

NT Ha ha, Ashcroft did his best to stop it. But he couldn’t support religious freedom – for Judeo-Christians only. This is a big world, and hats off to the Supreme Court for upholding values this country was founded on. Wow. This is big news. This is great boys!! Order a Seagram’s next time at the bar… They made it happen. This is a cause for celebration!!! I have consumed the brew many many times and it centers me and reconnects me with nature. I can say without irony that it bring s me closer to the Godhead and my Christian beliefs do not suffer conflict ing wariness or guilt. It’s takes me to other dimensions any other psychedelics have never taken me. I feel the positive effects for a w eek or two after imbibing. As a nat ive American once said, Red man medicine tastes bitter at first, then feels good afterwards, unlike Western “medicine” recognized established ayahuasca drinking religions, i.e. the brazillian Daime and the UDV are allowed to partake. (One of these relisgions was founded by rubber plantation owners who drank once with the locals and turned their land back into jungle!) Maybe we should all follow Daniel Pin chbeck’s lead and go to church! Or, we should work to create our own plant-centered religious group free of Christian/Catholic influence. Maybe that’s a laudable nonprofit goal for 2005. Imagine the d, the Devotional Ministry of Trance, administering ayahuasca legally as part of a sacrament. Legally. This may well help save the rainforest. In Hollywood, this may be the next Sc ientology!!! You heard it here first. 2Can anyone imagine a legal, licensed d religious event ending in psych edelic trance hymns? I think we can put all d dealers out of busi ness. And liquor and tobacco, take THAT big business!

December 22 Wednesday Winter SolstiCelebration with Omnitribe’s Shai and Vitalik at Goa Trash downstairs at Karma, 51 1st avenue between 3rd and 4th streets, ID21+, free This hi gh res-erected-by-popular-demand party promises to make any memories of I biza, the Riviera, or even Thailand like so much flotsam and jetsam strun g along the beaches of Goa India. Music from 10pm – 12am is generally mi d- to late-90s Goa Trance, which is really just modern progressive house beats mixed with Ravi Shankar sounds done up at 145 BPM. After midnight DJs may mix in modern psychedelic trance. A GOA TRASH just opened recent ly in Santiago, Chile by Angeles who did the long running Wednesdays Opiu m Den. A coalition of independent trance collectives are coming together to make Goa Trash version 2.0 – all old skool 90’s goa – at Karma in the East Village.

INFINITE numbers of permu tations exist which determine, alter, and re-determine how “good” or “bad ” a party is. That said, I begin with this disclaimer: The following list s are merely my personal subjective picks. Little, if any, scientific or objective criteria was used in determining the “best” anything… These l ists simply represent the North American parties I attended this year whe re I had the best time. They list the DJ sets I liked the most, and live- sets I was most impressed by. As a good friend of mine likes to say, “one man’s treasure is another’s trash… and vice versa.” And now, may I pre sent my 2004 TOP TEN lists! TOP TEN PARTIES – 2004. 1. THE GAIAN MIND FESTIVAL – Artemas, PA. July 2004. 2004 was the third year of this f estival and it keeps getting better every year! What do you get when you combine an ultra-motivated and passionate crew of psy-lovers with an equa lly energetic owner of pristine creekside acrage in Pennsylvannia? The Ga ian Mind Festival, of course! Allen, Andy, Sharon, Orrin, and the whole c rew did it bigger than ever this year!! Scorb, Loopus in Fabula, Beat Biz arre, Stella Nutella, Solar Fields… Coffee Dragons! Immaculate swimming holes! Amazing chill-out and camping areas! A relaxed, mellow camping vi be! The Sonic Beating Sound System! What more can be said? Easily, the be st weekend of the year! 2. OMNI-DANCE 2004 – Echo Lake, NY. June 2004 . If Curt Schilling and Pedro Martinez were considered starters “ONE” and “ONE-A” for the Red Sox this year, then the same system should be use d to allign Omni Dance and Gaian Mind 2004. Even with tragedy striking th e venue a few days before the festival, the entire Omni-Tribe crew came t hrough at Echo Lake with flying colors! Live sets from Wizzy Noise, Phony Orphants, M-Field, and S-Range! A Dj set to end all DJ sets by Emok! The location isn’t quite as paradiscial as Gaian Mind’s – having less camping space and marginal swimming. But what the festival lost in the location, it made up musical and visual talent! Time-slot to time-slot the best 2-day lineup of the year!! 3. TICON AND ANTIX (Spectra Production s) NYC, NY. February 2004. Spectra’s Last Stand – and what a way to go out! With his pending engagement and relocation to Sweden getting clos er; Spectra headman, Gavin Stevenson, decided to have one last bash! Desp ite some tough electrical issues during Ticon’s live-set, nothing could p revent this party from raging well into Saturday’s “normal business hours .” A mind-blowing DJ set from Gavin followed by an equally brilliant live -set from Hayden Strom (Antix). The party was supposed to end at 7:00, bu t the music just kept coming as Hayden DJed until alomost 8:00! 4. OMNI -TRIBE IN BOSTON – Boston, MA. November 2004. The words “Omni-Tribe ” ensure an amazing party, and at no time was this fact more true than on e mid November night in Boston. Still high from the Red Sox World Serie s win, Boston cut no corners in using its one and only “safe” all-night v enue to host the party. Visual work from Leonid Andreev and a crew of dec o-masters set the tone for flawless sets from Omni-Tribe’s reknown DJ’s – Vitalik, Earthling, Kife, Stas, FX Mike… the night was simply magical a s the Sonic Beating sound pump throbbed with a zero-percent sound-bleed! By the time Mrs. Sullivan was waking to attend Sunday Services, the Boston and NY trancers were happily stumbling out of the venue! 5. BOSTON B RAHMANS (d Productions). Brooklyn, NY. September 2004. Leave it to to hatch this idea! Take as many Boston-based DJ’s and vis ual artists as you can, pack them in a van, get them down to NYC (in the heat of an AL pennant race – mind you!), stuff them all into a private re sidential loft, and have a psy-trance party!! Believe it or not, the nigh t went off without a hitch! Almost one hundred people danced to the sounds of Boston’s best until the sun started to peek through the night sky. A poorly placed and poorly mixed DJ set cleared the dancefloor at that time – before headlining act, Alpha Channel, could take to his work – but nob ody could deny that the 11-6 hours of this night were some of the year’s best! 6. MATTAA MANDARA IV (TOUCH Samadhi) – West Virginia. September 20 04. Outdoors in the middle of a Hare Krishna reserve. Two nights of Am erican trance DJ’s and producers. Plenty of good folks, good food, and ca mping space. Were it not for a Simon Posford party in New York that weeke nd, perhaps this festival would have been better attended. But anyway you slice it, the fifty or sixty people who arrived were treated to sets from KRI, Blue Spectral Monkey, Electronkind, Allen, and many others… Danci ng, chatting, and just passing a few days in the wilds of West Virginia m ade this event memorable for me! Say nothing about the custom marble work in Krishna’s Golden Palace! 7. ATMOS AND NOMA at SPIRIT (Spectra/Spirit ) – NYC, NY. March 2004 Most people I’ve spoken with do not agree with this choice – citing the poor Funktion One tuning, the strange acrobatic s before the party, and the festivities being cut short by 3 hours – thus totally deleting a planned live-set from Noma. Many even said they were not impressed with Atmos’s live-set. To those nay-sayers, I ask, “what pa rty were YOU at?” Never have I heard Atmos on such a level – and never ha ve I reached the spaces I did that night with Marria and our friends, And rew, Emily, and Bryan Ladd. Yes, the party was cut short; but to hear Atm os live that night and share words and space with such people! It made th e party priceless! 8. S-Range *Live* at Central Psy – Cambridge, MA. May 2004. With the horrible 2:00AM rule, burgeoning rates for airlines a nd fees, and the ever-present fear of police; it is very rare that Boston can afford (monetarily AND legally) to host a talented international pro ducer. So, when Boston’s “godfather,” Johnny Marquis, presented the oppur tunity to host S-Range, Boston’s crew was on-the-ball! And, of course, S- Range did not dissappoint! Busting out material from his forthcoming album and making the 70 or 80 dancers go nuts – S-Range dropped bomb after bom b on the All-Asia Bar – right up until 1:59AM – and left everyone smiling on their way out the door! 9. KRI at Psyforia (Sonic Beating) – Cambrid ge, MA. October 2004. A specially made halloween visual display from Bob Trahpek. Two amazing DJ sets from Lauryn and KRI. A pile of free giv eaways featuring CD’s from Juno Reactor and Boston DJ mixes. Jack-o-lante rns, mountains of candy, costumes, silly string – the night was as wild a s a trance party in Boston could ever be! It even left KRI himself in a f antasy world after his set!! 10.Valentine’s Day Party – South Boston, MA . February, 2004. An experiment with a new venue that went dramatical ly RIGHT!! Boston DJ’s – including Ammon EP and Binary – joined forces wi th Omni-Tribe’s Kife – to pump out sets all the way until the police rear ed their ugly heads around 4:30AM… Though the location and gear were kep t safe and secure, the music was lowered and then stopped by 4:45. A wond erful night of trance, though – and a mere foreshadowing of greater thing s to come! TOP TEN LIVE SETS – 2004. 1. Son Kite at Gavin’s B-Day/NYC. December 22nd, 2003. (happened in calender year 2003, but AFTER las t year’s top-ten lists were released) If music is a religion, then Sebast ain Mullaert and Marcus Hendriksonn are high priests! 2. Loopus in Fabula at Gaian Mind Festival/PA. July 2004. The best set of the best party! Matteo worked the crowd into a frenzy and then took them even further be fore handing the stage to Beat Bizarre. In the words of Blue Spectral Mon key, “the whole thing was just…. BONKY!” 3. Phony Orphants at Omni-Danc e/NY. June 2004. One of the many primary reasons Marria and I attende d this festival – and Emok and Jeppe did not make the trip a waste! The I boga/Nano-Beat duo was on point throbbing out a deep progressive sound wh ile creating a thoughtful, reflective, and liquidious atmosphere! 4. Ant ix at The Billionaire’s Club/NYC. February, 2004. A MAC G4 laptop, a m ixer, and the house system is all Hayden the Genius needed to display the tracks from the most influencial album since “Headcleaner.” Sophisticate d, elegant, perfect in structure and rythm. The live-set was like hearing “Lull” for the first time all over again! 5. Atmos at Spirit/NYC. March 2 004. Again, many would disagree, but hearing live arrangements rangin g from “Jimmy the Plate” to “The Only Process” was worth being thrown out of the venue three hours early. Even the new housier material was made m ore powerful in the wake of such classics! 6. Beat Bizarre at Gaian Mind Fe stival. July 2004. After a killer set from Loopus in Fabula, the Dynami c Danish Duo kept the crowd at a peak with an eccentric and quirky set fe aturing tracks from both “Lewd” and “Pandora’s Groovebox” the peak being a live mix of “Caugama” that I wanted to continue forever! 7. S-Range at Central-Psy/Boston. May 2004. With material never-before HEARD – let alone released – Anthony blew up Boston, found time to attend a Red Sox game, see a few IMAX films, and then prepare for his insane performance at Omni-Dance 2004 a week later. 8. Solar Fields at Gaian Mind Festival/PA . June 2004. The best live-set that nobody heard! A sunrise stroke of brilliance on Saturday morning. A dancefloor of about twenty people was s wayed and moved to the atmospheric and blissful sounds of this Swedish do wntempo master! 9. M-Field at Omni-Dance/NY. June 2004. With the succ ess of his two prior projects – D-Space and Alpha Channel – J joined forc es with San Francisco’s Rob Watson to make “M-Field.” And their set at Om ni was immense! Featuring tracks like Grokwave and Focus, M-Field kept th e night crowd booty-shakin’! 10. Ticon at The Billionaire’s Club/NYC. Febru ary, 2004. Even the problems with the house electricty couldn’t stop Filip and Frederick from busting out one of their signature sets. Comple te with vocoder and rock-star presences, the Swedes astounded a packed da ncefloor! TOP LIVE SETS MISSED (taken from parties I was “supposed” to attend but failed to.. Or parties I did attend but found a way to bungle and miss the live-set.) 1. Son Kite at Club Exit/NYC. October 2004. Prior Halloween engagements kept me in Boston that night – but from the reviews and words of my friends, the set was simply brilliant! 2. Phony O rphants at Toronto, Ontario. November 2004. Marria and I drove 600 mile s to Toronto to hear this set, but venue security and ownership denied us entry to the room where Phony Orphants was playing. Later invesigation u ncovered that we were not the only ones who were lied to, mislead, and “s tolen” from the Toronto promotors’ guest list. 3. Ticon at The Eclipse Fes tival. Montreal, Quebec. August 2004. Getting back from two and a hal f weeks in Europe just hours before we had to start driving to Montreal, Marria and I were half-delirious. We both remember getting home and then waking up on our kitchen floor about seven hours hours before Ticon was scheduled to go on.. We were outside in the truck before realizing we wer en’t going to make it… TOP TEN DJ SETS 1. Emok at Omni-Dance 2004. J une 2004. After being awake for almost 48 straight hours, Marria and I ended up passed out in our tent half-way through this set… But based u pon what we heard of it, and the overwhelming excitement and response of those who heard the full set, there’s no question that this set rocked! P reviews of Iboga’s coming killers mixed with Emok’s lovable DJ antics and a man dressed as a fern looking to get as close to the music as possible. .. 2. Gavin at Ticon/Antix. Febraury 2004. Coming on after Ticon is no easy task – especially when their live-set had just been interupted by tw o house power failures. But, with the grace and skill that has come to de fine this master, Gavin brought the crowd back together and took things i nto Antix’s live-set with 90 minutes of killer tracks and mixes. As Gavin said after, “I knew it was time to gather.” And people stayed gathered w ell passed the party’s scheduled end! 3. Stella Nutella at Gaian Mind Fes tiaval. July 2004. As if live-sets by Loopus in Fabula and Beat Bizar re weren’t enough on that memorable Sunday morning, The Gaian Mind Crew p resented the patrons with a ripping set by one of Europe’s best. Having h er CD book stolen in New York just hours earlier, Stella spent all night Saturday on the phone and laptop procuring the original and unreleased tra cks she wanted to play. At 9:00AM, she presented those tracks to a packed dancefloor who showed their appreciation until well after the noontime h our! 4. Electronkind at Mataa Mandara IV. September 2004. The set that defined the festival for Marria and I – and lead the Boston crew to book him for one of our parties here – Dale dropped and perfectly mixed tracks from Son Kite, Higher Human Form, and a host of killer acts creating an atmosphere fit for the religio-bucolic setting. 5. Dino at Omni-Dance 2004. June 2004. A set that has now taken the shape of an 80 minute mixed C D, Dino strayed from the tracks he had prepared and played to the 100 per son dancefloor almost totally from the hip. Freq, Kooler, Antix – the set was packed with killers that just seemed to build in intensity with each mix.. By the time his set was over and M-Field took the stage, the crowd was in a groove that defined Omni-style psy-nation. 6. Vitalik at Omni-Tr ibe in Boston. November 2004. After hearing his sunrise set on Saturda y morning at Gaian Mind 2004, I knew this was NOT a set to be missed. Tho ugh it happened at the start of the party, it set the tone for one of the most magical nights in the history of Boston trance. Never before have I entered a party at midnight and seen so many people ALREADY grooving. Wit h tracks from Loom, Chromosone, Psyless Groove, and others – this was eas ily the night’s most impressive set. 7. KRI at Psyforia. October 2004. With a few shots of special rum in his belly, this set left no doubt tha t KRI can rip a hole in the space-time continuum with the best of them. C oming on after one of the heaviest sets I’ve ever heard played in Psyforia ‘s opening slot (see #10), KRI had no problem taking it up even higher an d going even further. An hour into it, I found myself outside on a bench repeating the words “Son Kite, Son Kite, Son Kite,” to myself to recenter my whole musical existence. 8. Binary and KRI tag-team at Omni- Dance 200 4. June 2004. In one of the most magical moments of the year, KRI and Sonic Beating headman, Binary, took to the decks after S-Range’s sunrise live-set. Whether it was planned or spontaneous, it was simply amazing t o see these two American full-on experts going track for track and having it amplified by Binary’s electro-mechanical brainchild. 9. Goldilocks at Boston Brahmans in Brooklyn. September 2004. In the set that sadly w as the last anyone really heard at this amazing d party, Goldilocks pla yed a perfect low key set featuring, of all things, a track from Radiohea d! It couldn’t have been better placed as he finished the line of Boston Dj’s who played that night and left everyone there with a good impression of what Boston is all about. Though the DJ that followed him sadly kille d the party like a slasher-movie villian, Goldilocks left zero doubt abou t his skills and presence behind the decks. 10. Lauryn at Psyforia. Octob er 2004. As though possessed by some unknown powers of darkness, Laur yn played two hours like she’s never played them before. Setting a new pr ecedent for Psyforia and completely shunning the “progressive warmup,” Lau ryn came out on fire at 10:00PM and just kept fanning the flames of mayhe m until KRI took over at midnight. TOP MISSED DJ SETS: 1. Emok in T oronto, Ontario. November 2004. The Phony Orphants live-set was not th e only casualty of that fated drive to and from Toronto! But hey, we did get to see Ray Bourque get inducted into the Hockey Hall of Fame!! 2. Je ppe in Toronto, Ontario. November 2004. Yup – that night in Toronto! Ohhhh, what COULD HAVE been!! 3. Allen at Gaian Mind Festival *AND* Psyfor ia. July 2004. A trip to Europe and a campfire conversation that simp ly went too far too fast were the causes behind my absence at two sets wh ich have been talked about ad infinitum by friends and other reviewers al ike. The following lists, though still very personal and subjective, are in my eyes, a little less-so than the first three… You can play an alb um, rewind it, and play it again. Not so with a live-set. You can play an album in different settings, when you’re in different moods, and through different headphones and sound devices. Not so with a dj set. A party is in the words of Ernst Cassirer, “…an event. It is this event NOW – an d NOW it is no longer this event.” Personal experience just happens and r eflective judgement can’t be made while the party is still happening. One can, therefore, afford to be more objective and data-driven when “judgi ng” recorded music.. That said, here goes my babbling attempt at doing ju st that!… TOP TEN ARTIST FULL – LENGTHS (the most difficult list of them all!!) 1. Frogacult: “Somthing for Sundays” (Iboga Records; Copenh agen, Denmark.) Well worth the wait, needless to say! This gem was du e out in March, didn’t come out until November, and STILL met all expecta tions! Track for track, an album that feels like a good DJ set! Tracks wa rm up, charge like a battery, and then just **GO**! Four and five minutes of groove where the kick and bass hardly change and each entry intensifie s the track just enough to keep the “trance” intact. Subtle slopes up and down, a zoo of exotic animals, eight straight unhittable 89 mph sliders on the outside corner, a perfectly assembled batting order – no visual an aology can do this amazing album justice! Favorite track: ALL OF THEM. ..no, really..ALL OF THEM!!! 2. Kooler: “Open” (Dragonfly/Kamaflage Reco rds; United Kingdom.) He produces in one of the planet’s best live ac ts. He has a lifetime of training in classical music. He masters and aids in seemingly every progressive release that hits the market. He has a dow ntempo solo-project called “OOZE,” and a progressive one called “FILUR.” Now, Sebastian Mullaert has yet another gem to add to his already worldly resume: Kooler. Son-Kite-esque in depth and clarity, the album again pla ys like a good DJ set. A mere ONE track I didn’t positively adore…Favor ite track #7 – “Awake” 3. Auricular: “Time” (Plusquam Records; Hamburg, Germany.) Many argue that this album has “no soul.” And I’d agree if o ne’s definition of soul involves a vibrant vitality and teeming life-forc e! However, this album IS the paradigmatic representation of the German s oul – driven, detail-oriented, perfectionistic, and immaculately logical. The production value of this album is far and beyond anything I’ve heard before – CRYSTAL clear in all frequencies and at all levels. Mechanical genius! Favorite track: Track #8 “Brilliant Cut. 4. Beat Bizarre: “Pa ndora’s Groovebox.” (Iboga Records, Copenhagen Denmark.) The success o f “Lewd” put Beat Bizarre on the radar screens of all-those progressive b ack in 2001; and since then, they’ve been all over the globe (literally a nd figuratively) producing tracks for Iboga, Plastik Park, and even TIP R ecords. Their style is like none-other and their on-stage demeanor as bro therly and “human” as I’ve ever seen. Pandora’s is yet another brilliant example of a sound that cannot be categorized, but simply cannot be ignore d! Favorite track: Track #7 “Caugama” 5. Son Kite: “Colours” (Digital S tructures; Malmo, Sweden.) With a resume more impressive than Bill Gate s, the Swedish Sultans took a break from their global schedule to set fort h this gem in the spring of 2004. Accompanied by a series of remixes and then another with a supplemental DVD, this truly was the Year of Son Kite . Brilliantly produced, eccelctic, and original – the full-length album i s the gem of this “total package!” Favorite Track: #6 “Let Us Be.” 6. B uzzmonx: “Toms N Jerry” (Plusquam Records, Hamburg, Germany) After major releases on Plusquam, Save-To-Disc, and Plastik Park, it was only a matt er of time before Sebastian Plenh (Buzz) and Sascha Haske (Bitmonx) had a full-length. That time came in 2004 and the Buzzmonx project did not dis appoint! Deeper and deeper the album goes, reaching an absolute depth with the subtle yet throbbing album title track. One of the rare albums with tracks suited for both a chill-out lounge AND a packed dancefloor! Favori teTrack: Track #6 “Toms ‘n’ Jerry.” 7. The Higher Human Form: “Neurohigh ways” (ZMA Records; Greece.) From literally out of nowhere, this alb um showed up at my doorstep and had me floored from the get-go! Produced at a much more rapid clip than I’m used to (139-142 throughout), this alb um had me hooked in the middle of track 2. Lauren summed it up best and sa id, “It sounds like Vibrasphere with more balls” and that was echoed by r emarks from others who imagine it sounds like a mix of Vibrasphere and Te traktys! Dance and think! Think and dance! Take your pick! Favorite Track : Track #1 – “Immobilized” 8. FREq: “Strange Attractors” (Iboga Records; Copenhagen, Denmark.) The story goes like this: Emok had just finishe d a DJ set at a festival in Sydney, Australia when he was approached by a wide-eyed young producer named Aran Gallagher. Gallagher praised Emok fo r the set and told him how inspired the music had made him. He said he ha d been looking for a new sound and had ideas, but just didn’t know how to put them into action. Telling Emok he’d send a demo, he giddily hopped b ack into the crowd. Five months later, a five-track demo CD showed up at Iboga’s doorstep. After an hour with the CD playing, Emok grabbed his cel l-phone, called its Australia-based author, and signed him to a full-leng th album. The fruits of this story can be heard on this *KILLER* album! F avorite Track: #5 – “Spacechanger.” 9.Oculus: “A Moment in Time” (Floata tion Records; Sydney, Australia.) Again, out of nowhere and, again, flo ored by an album that’s a little more rapid than what I normally like.. T his pair of young producers from down under came through big-time with th eir debut full-length. Tracks full of solid basslines and rythmic high-en d percussion sequences, the album ended up accompanying me to more places than I expected when I bought it! Favorite track: #4 Lo Ki. 10.Genetic S pin: “Backspin” (Nervine Records) Shunning the pinings of major record labels worldwide, Genetic Spin picked their own label, Nervine Records, to produce their second full length – only the second album ever produced on it! With the success of their Creamcrop debut, “On/Off,” its no wonder this album got lots of attention and airtime upon its release. A new sou nd and a new direction – Genetic Spin also passed up their normal slow ch uggy progressive style to make a album a little more towards the “full-on ” sound. Call it what you will, but Genetic Spin dropped some bombs on th is one! Favorite Track: #2 – “Lord of the Strings” HONORABLE MENTION Atm os: 2nd Brigade (Spiral Trax International; Gothenburg, Sweden.) TOP TE N LABEL COMPILATIONS 1. Playground. (Iboga Records; Copenhagen. Denmark.) George Steinbrenner has an UNLIMITED budget, and not even he can cre ate a lineup this good!! If Emok ever wanted to change careers, I’m sure Theo Epstein could find a job for him! Track after track of Australia and Denmark’s most talented artists. Antix remixing Freq and vice versa! Emo k and Freq teaming up for a track! Banel and Rene Nielsen (Beat Bizarre) doing a track under their new project, “Behind Blue Eyes.” This release m akes all other compilations (even Iboga’s) PALE in comparison. Puzzled an d Set03 were both strong, but Playground simply blew me away! Favorite t rack: Take your pick!! The whole album is FUCKING INSANE!!!! 2. Ground Gr ooves. (Tatsu Recordings, Germany.) After going through a tough time r eleasing relatively under-produced full-lengths by Oryx and Magnetrixx in 2003; Tatsu came back full-bore in 2004 with two great compilations and a beautiful full-length from Sensient. Ground Grooves was the second of th e two and it’s loaded with Killers. Slow, throbbing, and even funky at ti mes; the two bombs are certainly those from Freq (surprise surprise) and a new artist named “Loom” and their track “The Riddle.” Huge release!! Favorite track: Track #3 Freq “Life Impulse.” 3. Groove Zone. (Groove Zo ne Records, Tokyo, Japan.) The first release on this new label and it was a smash! Packed with intensely produced and dance-floor friendly track s, it contains gems from veteran and new artists alike! One of the gems i s a track written by Stella Nutella and Chromosone called “Le Groove.” A tribally chanting masterpiece played by Stella at Gaian Mind and then by Vitalik during his amazing Boston set! Metronome, Sentient, Andromeda, an d new artist Fine Diner and kept me moving for months! Favorite track: #7 Freq “We Communicate.” 4. A Token to Thrill. (Nano-Beat Records, Copenha gen, Denmark.) Iboga isn’t the only fantastic label in Copenhagen!! O wned and operated by a collective of artists lead by Jeppe Ornkilde; Nano -Beat has now released a handful of killer 12″ singles and a pair of swee t compilations. Progressive, Progresive House, electro – Nano-Beat is ded icated to anything pushing the sound in new directions! A gem from Monday z Millionaires (both Strom Brothers and both members of Phony Orphants) m akes a good impression and the album just gets better from there! Favorit e track: #3 Groovesniffers “Naughty Edit B.” 5. The Swiss Connection. (D omo Records; Zurich, Switzerland) Killer! Simply killer!! This album was first introduced to me by Dave Dittmer, at the Gaian Mind Festival – and it’s an album that I haven’t stopped listening to on a regular basis. A quirkly little ditty from Export Audio and an assortment of shiny jewe ls earn this a spot in the top-ten. Favorite Track” Track 4: Freq vs. Sph erical “Bit Shifter.” 6. Pure Bliss. (Tatsu Recordings, Germany.) The f irst of Tatsu’s dynamic duo of 2004, the tracks on this album enjoyed a h ey-day at the US summer festivals – one of them even found it’s way into Phony Orphants’ live set! Prisoners of the Sun, Expect, and Lunaspice all throw down the beats for this BMW of German psy-compilations! Favorite tr ack: #5 Antix “I wanna Be” (Emok remix) 7. A Day After.. (ZMA Records; At hens, Greece.) With the success of Battle Royal and “The Higher Human F orm’s” full-length, it was inevitable that I’d simply click “order” when this album popped up for sale. Freq, Segment, and two killers from Heliot rope made this an unexpected addition to the stack of CD’s I carry to wor k in my backpack. In fact, for a few mornings (during the playoff stretch no less) it actually replaced my normal morning commuter dose of AM Spor ts Radio! Favorite Track: #1 Sun Control Species “Structure.” 8. Day T ime (Submachine Records; Paris, France.) A late addition to my collect ion, but still one of the best. Now famous for their release of the Tetra ktys album and one of Frogacult’s early bombs – “snowdropped” – Submachin e returns with another progressive-psy killer with tracks from former Tra ktor producer “La Baaz” and a new masterpiece from Phony Orphants! Favori te track: #3 Antix and DSENS – “Reflect.” 9. Soul Reflection. (Polarlight Recordings; New York, USA.) Finally! An American trance label puts o ut somthing we can all sink our teeth into!! With all due respects to Sou lar Records and Spectral Concepts, their releases didn’t please me as muc h as this little Urban treasure did. New York based artists and producers teamed up to put the Eastern US on the map with this one. Stashuk, BRAZI L, Oscimon – from progressive to downtempo – I was proud to be an America n Trancer!! Favorite track: #5 Oscimon “Celadrum.” 10. Cold Cuts. (Col d-Groove Records, Canada) What’s up North America!! From the land w here some think “music” means Alanis Morissette and the only good exports are beer and ice hockey stars comes a new label and a brilliant debut rel ease! Mastered by none other than Sebastian Mullaert and Marcus Hendrikss on, this album starts deep with a track from Lunaspice and just gets deep er and clearer from there. A little pacey at times, but always dark, driv ing, and thoughtful. Favorite track: #5 Axiomata “Concentration” (Tetrakt ys remix) HONORABLE MENTION Urban Legends. (Tribal Vision Records; Pra gue, Chechoslovakia) TOP TEN INDIVIDUAL TRACKS NOT APPEARING ON ANY AF OREMENTIONED ALBUM. 1. Morganixx “Filigram” (AP Records, Germany.) I was SHOCKED that this untouchable cut-fastball didn’t get released on on e of AP’s compilations! Appearing only as a 12″ single – the B-side, “Son man,” made it onto CD, but Filigram never did! A groovy, hypnotic, ever i ntensifying organic gem from Stefan Lewin’s side project!! 2. Frogacult ” All Seasons” (Psyless Groove remix) (Iboga Records; Copenhagen, DNK.) As if the original wasn’t good enough!! Simon Ravnlokke and Lasse Bruhn t ook their countrymen’s track, kept the dynamic, driving and thoughtful fee l; but gave it a little more hop, a little more eccentricity, and breathe d new life into the stacatto synth sample! It came out before the Frogacu lt full-length and made the wait for “Sundays” even harder to bear!! 3 . Son Kite “Let Us Be” (Vibrasphere Remix) (Digital Structures; Malmo, Sw eden) Just take a look at the artists involved. Need I say more? 🙂 A long awaited second series of single remixes, this track was the best o f the batch! The coolest track on the full-length, remixed by one of Swed en’s most talented artists! 4. Sensifeel “Back to the Future” (Freq Remix ) (Domo Records; Zurich, Switzerland) Granted, I had to hold myself back from putting this full-length in the top-ten; but the competition in the category was fierce! Either way, the album deserves mention and espe cially this wall-ball double which appears on it! Great stuff! 5. Psyle ss Groove “Columbian Rock” (Iboga Records; Copenhagen, Denmark.) The c ompilation was a little disappointing for me – as most of the tracks have been staples in my cd-book for years already – but the solo track from E mok, a Llopis remix, and THIS HIGH-POWERED SUBWAY TRAIN made Iboga’s “set 03” worthwhile. In fact, this track alone was worth the price of the CD!! A total hit from an artist whom I pray will put out a full-length someday ! 6. Kruger and Coyle “The Witness” (Randy Expander Remix) (AC/DC; Gotheb urg, SWD) Call it “cheese,” “cottage cheese,” “progressive cheese” or “house,” – this track hit my ears and stuck with me all year. Some days I hated it because it was lodged in my head at work like a bad Nickelback tune. Other days I loved it as it played on “repeat 1” during long sessi ons in the gym.. And still other days I was amazed by the dancefloor reac tion it got… From Boston to Quebec to freaking Switzerland – this one go t people moving with vocals like a pop-rock hook! 7. M-Field “Focus” (w/ p J Stottemier and Rob Watson at D-Space Sudios; CT, USA) After Rob’s sad return to San Francisco, the M-Field project between he and Jay Stott z (D-Space, Alpha Channel, Indigom) seemed to fade away. But nobody can d eny the dreamlike few months the two musical briantrusts enjoyed together and the parties they rocked! This track epitomizes their talent and crac ks this list with a progressive and intsense atmosphere! 8. Chris Pointd exter “Darkness” (Ticon Remix) (Spiral Trax IGothenburg, Sweden) Only a side-project of swedish genius Christer Gunarrsonn, Chris Pointde xter already has a couple hit 12″ singles and now a CD maxi on Spiral Trax ! Though the original version is catchy and driving, the remix from Poin tdexter’s equally talented countrymen makes the original sound all the bet ter! 9. Morganixx “Strolch” (AP Records; Germany) When the hell is M organixx going to put out a full-length?? I mean, Magnetrixx is bomb – bu t has Moganixx put out ANYTHING that hasn’t been completely amazing? From “Tropfen” to “Witske Vebelt”! From their 12″ BOMB on AP to this buried tr easure! I hope to put Morganixx on a different top-ten list a year from n ow! 10. Symphonix “Submit” (Medium Records, Germany) Another artist in need of a full length – Symphonix has been a mainstay with Medium Records since the label’s inception. This wonderful chugger just keeps going and going!! HONORABLE MENTION Midimilz “Cyclic Structure” (Maniac IQ Recor ds) Stay tuned later on for The 2004 Year in Review Trance Awards – feat uring the award for “Album of the Year” “Track of the Year” “Best Musical and Visual Artist of the year” “Local and International Psy Person of th e year” among many others….

It saw new faces sprout up at even newer parties. I t saw a private loft break all the rules and host two all-nighters. And it saw the Sonic Beating sound stystem travel not only around Massachusetts but to places as far away as West Virginia!

What you will be reading bet ween now and the end of the year are “awards” (i.e. words of recognition – sometimes paragraphs and sometimes a mere few sentences.) I’d wish to g ive those who have earned our admiration and respect over the course of th is year. It was a PROLIFIC year on all fronts trance and now that I have time to reflect (because, as Marks says, “baseball season is over. :-)) I ‘m thinking back to all the fun, all the moments, and all the impressive people and organizations which made 2004 one of the best year’s in North( Eastern) American Trance! So, the cliff-notes will start things out and t hat will be followed by the first three awards… Here goes… Cliff notes: Award 1: Trance Label of the Year: Iboga Records. Cop enhagen; Denmark. Award 2: Artist of the Year: Son Kite. Malmo, Sweden. Award 3: Visual Display of the Year: Bob Trahpek (Dragon’s Dream III an d Psyforia) LET THE AWARDS BEGIN 2004 LABEL OF THE YEAR The award go es to…. out of Copenhagen, Denmark – IBOGA RECORDS! This will be the f irst award because, obviously, it was the easiest to choose. With labels popping up all over the world seemingly everyday, it becomes harder and h arder for established labels to compete, stay on the “cutting edge,” and consistently release music which is like nothing we’ve heard before. When I first began shopping on web psyshop (web psyshop/), t here were maybe 50 labels listed in the CD category. I log on today and se e well over 150… possibly upwards of 200! That fact alone should make c lear the poias competition increases, established labels have to cons tantly think of new ways, new sounds, and new mthods to stay “ahead of t he curve.” And nobody has stayed further ahead than Copenhagen based, Ibo ga Records. With a new website and a bag of KILLER releases, Iboga set th e standard in 2004 and no other label was able to approach their mark. Li ke a baseball team running away with the division title by the end of Jul y, Iboga had already salted this award away as far back as September!! We’ll start with the releases – as should be the case because the musi c a label releases ultimately determine its worth! It all started last wi nter with the release of the compilation “Puzzled.” Though the news had a lready hit that new full-lengths from Frogacult, Freq, Beat Bizarre, and possibly Phony Orphants were due out, this compilation hit the shelves an d didn’t stay around too long. A mere taste of what was to come; this alb um included single releases from Freq, Frogacult, and Kruger and Coyle. A dmittedly, the album fell a bit short, but “Return to the Masters” was po ised and ready to rock 2004 parties everywhere. Suddenly, and with lit tle warning, the spring arrived and with it came Beat Bizarre’s long-awai ted Pandora’s Groovebox and Freq’s much anticipated Strange Attractors. W ith these two releases, Iboga showed it’s fanbase that this was the year! A CD Maxi featuring tracks from BLT followed that and as “the spacebuggy remix” rocked dancefloor after dancefloor, people from around the globe b egan to grasp exactly what was happening in a relatively low-key studio i n the outskirts of downtown Copenhagen. The summer barrelled in and Em ok and Jeppe took their show on the road – going from party to party – pr omoting the new albums and the label with avengence. Iboga artists like B eat Bizarre came to the USA and dropped killer tunes and killer flyers on an excited Gaian Mind dancefloor. Emok and Jeppe arrived at Omni-Dance, armed with an insane live-set and, most importantly, a stack of previousl y unreleased tracks due out on Iboga in the coming months. Marria and I w ent to Switzerland a month later and heard them play once more – and once more, track after track of “coming killers” on Iboga made us want to log onto psyshop everyday hoping to catch the release date for these tunes. While all this was going on, a devoted and dedicated pair of Copenhagen based Iboga artists named Mikael Calum and Casper Datai were busy in the ir studios preparing what would come to be known as one of the greatest r eleases in the history of the label. Moreover, as Emok, Jeppe, Aran, Rene, Banel, Martin, and the rest of Iboga was travelling around the globe; co nstant mention was made to the Frogacult project – constant “teasers” thr own out in conversation and constant “heads up” to the fans so eagerly aw aiting the album. The summer came to and end, the predicted September rel ease was set back until October… and then November – all the while, fan s – instead of growing restless and tired – grew more excited, more anxio us, and more pumped for the Frogacult album. Iboga spent the spring and s ummer earning the trust of the people – and nobody was going to turn thei r back. If Iboga said the album was on it’s way – then the album was on i t’s way… October saw the Frogacult maxi released – much to the ecstacy of the globe – and it enjoyed immediate success with the final version of the Psyless Groove remix, the Freq Remix, and – at long last – the first track that would appear on the Frogacult album, now dubbed “Somthing fo r Sundays.” The track was a CRUSHER – an unhittable 78 mph changeup over the black edge of the plate. Charging up for 4 minutes and 45 seconds bef ore busting down into a groove that lasts a whole 3 minutes and 2 seconds – finishing with two minutes of peaceful meltdown. Nine minutes of heaven ! With the album obvioulsy on its way and people obviously excited about it, Emok had one last trick left up his sleeve for 2004. The Froga cult album was released in November (the rest is history!) along with the SET 03 compilation – a fine collection of tracks both old and new – feat uring, of all things, another solo gem from Emok’s solo project, Emok. Bu t the best was yet to come… Through the year, the Iboga website h ad made mention of a compilation due out with “the aussie-kiwi-danish con nection” busting out tracks solo and together. The nationalistic referenc es obvioulsy screamed of tracks by all the Iboga artists we’ve come to kn ow and love. Many projected it would be somthing like a SET 04… a pile of the best tracks from Iboga’s 2004 full-lengths. Other projected it wo uld be a “greatest hits” album from the Iboga artists, and still others t hought it may be all tracks which didn’t make the cut for the full-length albums… All, thank god, were wrong!! The compilation was finally relea sed on December 2nd, 2004 and it showed up at my door on December 8th – t hanks to Ammon EP. As my copy waited, locked in my mailroom, unable to be accessed until the next day; Ammon drove over, brought his freshly purch ased copy with him, and, to the delight of fifteen or sixteen people that night, the album played in its entirity!! A Freq remix of Antix’s classic “LULL” track 3 – Blood, an Antix Remix of Freq’s now classic “Return to the Masters,” – a new Beat Bizarre track which should have been on Pandor a’s, a track between Emok and Freq, and one between Freq and Antix… A n ew Phony Orphants track – yet ANOTHER gem which makes us all wonder just HOW AMAZING their full length will be in 2005!!! And, a killer by a new p roject featuring Rene Neilsen (Beat Bizarre) and DJ Banel – Behind Blue E yes. All in all, seven all-new, totally killer, absolutely ripping progre ssive bombs created by artist from opposite corners of the earth sharing files and sound samples via the internet!! The whole album contained a me re ONE previously released track – Monday Millionaires “Coldies for Goldi es” – a track which had first appeared on Jeppe’s Nano-Beat Records earli er in the year! And even that killer track was a combination of both Stro m Brothers and both members of Phony Orphants! Whhew… What more can be said?? By gaining the trust of the trance globe earlier in the year, I boga was able to delay the release of its 2004 GEM – thus creating a glob al buzz and hence giving the artists more time to perfect their tracks. M oreover, with the talent and technical wisdom held by all the Iboga artist s, the label was able to produce one final KILLER – the killer to end all killers – which united, unified, and synthesized the ideas and talent of artists living at opposite ends of the globe. Freq, Antix, Beat Bizarre, Frogacult, Phony Orphants, Psyless Groove, Emok, Jeppe, Banel, Oyuki – t he label is – in my eyes – the very definition of global progressive tran ce. Teamwork, support, vision, artistic talent, and the ability to work a s one cohesive unit a la the New England Patriots – it is without hesitat ion, that I call Iboga Records of Copenhagen, Denmark the 2004 LABEL OF T HE YEAR! 2004 ARTIST OF THE YEAR The award this year goes to – from M almo, Sweden – SON KITE!!! The artist – as I understand it – is an indiv idual who unifies, unites, combines, and synthesizes. The artist is one w ho builds bridges, both physically and spiruitually. The artist is one wh o can take seemingly unrelated items and combine them in ways to create b eauty. Musically and socially, Son Kite (aka Sebastian Mullaert and Marcu s Hendriksonn) is, in my opinion, the “2004 artist of the Year.” One the most basic level – their music – Son Kite creates a sound which can arguably be called “psy-trance,” “progressive trance,” “electro,” “progre ssive house” and “house.” The reason this happens is because they combine and unify all elements of these genres in creating and entirely new sound . Artistically, 2004 saw Son Kite do what no other production artist has done before. They relased a full-length album, a pair of cd maxis, and a full-length DVD – and tied them all together as a whole package. Though t he releases took the whole year to surface in total – they were all tied together with similar artwork, similar promotions, and similar advertisin g. But what completely overwhelmed me was their ability to create a global network – almost overnight – when it came to promoting their packa ge. Sebastian has admitted that “he’s addicted to communication,” but I w ould argue that “addiction” is the wrong word choice. It carries with it a stigma and suggests negative repercussions from habitual actions. The c ommunication to which Sebastian is addicted brought no such thing. In fact it brought a new wave of excited fans, excited promotors, and possibili ties for future parties and future “psy-lovers.” Through the internet, th e cell phones, and the post – Sebastian and Marcus went searching around the globe for people to promote the new material. When all was said and d one – 25 names were selected and those individuals, representing all cont inents and all corners of the globe were sent stacks of flyers, posters, and demo versions of the CDs. Upon receipt of these promo items, these in dividuals set forth to distribute them at local record shops, clubs, part ies, and on the street. Now, say what you will about promotion – but, in my opinion, taking mere promotion and making it “artistic,” speaks vol umes for an artist’s aesthetic vision. Most artists use the internet, web sites, e-mail and the likes. But I admit, there’s somthing special about being in the outskirts of Madison, Wisconsin and being handed a full-col or Son Kite poster by someone you’ve never seen nor met as opposed to sim ply seeing that poster on the cover of web sonkite (web sonk ite/) . There’s somthing about being handed that poster in Sydney, A ustralia and knowing, at the exact same moment, someone in Bangkok, Thail and is getting handed the same one. This promotional program broke new gr ounds. It united people from all over the globe – in a physical, tangible way. The internet does so much in terms of “virtual” unification and “si mulated” synthesis – but actual physical copies of posters, flyers, and a dvertisements – going out around the globe – from a little studio in, of all places, Malmo, Sweden – speaks to an “actual” unification more than th e internet ever will. Like Sebastian and Marcus themselves, preference is given to face-to-face communication and interaction. Priority is given to a firm handshake and a glowing smile. Ask yourself what’s better? Seeing and artist face-to-face, shaking his hand, and hearing him talk about hi s artwork? Or getting an e-mail or instant message from him/her – saying the exact same thing – with a little “:-)” attached to the end of it? The answer is obvious – in my eyes – and the two members of Son Kite seem to feel the same way! But what was being promoted was just as artist ic and aesthetically pleasing as the promotional program itself. Tied tog ether throughout the entire year, keeping Digital Structures (the very la bel they left at the beginning of the year) afloat by the sheer fact that their albums were coming out on the prestigious Swedish label; the Son Ki te CD’s and DVD kept fans all over the globe looking at their posters, ju st waiting for the next big track and next big single to pop out of Malmo . While all this was going on, Sebastian found time to release a new solo album – a KILLER on Kamaflage under his new project “Kooler” – and Marcu s found the time to perfect the new Son Kite tracks for the live act whil e also working to master and engineer progressive releases from the world ‘s “other” labels. Cold-Groove, ZMA – labels from all over owe a debt of graitude to these two for mastering and engineering their releases! S o, to say nothing about the constant flights all over the world – from To kyo to Croatia – from New York to New Zealand – the two guys known as Son Kite created somthing in 2004 that has never been done before and should be viewed as a huge step in actual global unification! They have set a p recedent with their music, their promotions, their cross-cultural cross p ollination of both muscial genres and urban “scenes.” Global travellers, musical masterminds, communication experts, and audio technical and master ing experts – Son Kite goes above and beyond the call of your ordinary “a rtist” and hence should be called the 2004 Artist of the Year! 2004 VI SUAL DISPLAY OF THE YEAR The award goes to Boston’s Bob Trahpek for his ama zing October’s work at Dragon’s Dream III in Quebec, Canada and the Hallo ween Psyforia in Cambridge, MASS! When one of Canada’s best promotors calls and gives you free reign at his next party, you know somthing is going dramatically right in your life. Such was the case when FreakPatrol ‘s Yyves Pouliot called Bob Trahpek and asked him to display his artwork in the main room of his next party. Needless to say, Bob accepted the inv itation and proved why he’s one of the brightest and most talented visual artists in the Northeast. Arriving only a few hours before the party, Bo b and his crew of professionals went to work – hanging Bob’s custom-made flouro-tapestries all over the room. These, as amazing as they are, were a mere backdrop for Bob’s more “interactive” artwork that filled in the r est of the room like organic beings attending their first ever-trance party . A ten foot high moving sculpture of the Millenium Falcon, an optical de lusion lightbox which creates stare after stare from would-be passers by; a light and sound operated projecting robot called the “DJ companion” wh ich sits to the DJ’s left as he plays! Hell, even his “I just left Iraq” camoflague cargo-netting seems to take on a life of its own when Bob inst alls it! The party went off without a hitch – a massive four-room ele ctronic bonanza at the base lodge of the highest ski mountain in Eastern Canada. Freak Patrol estimated over one thousand people poured through the doors that night, but I was at the party and I’d estimate it closer to 1 500! The place was a swamp all night! Dancing, breathing, laughing, talki ng, listening to amazing music – and, which was more often the case – pay ing serious respect and admiration for the work of Bob Trahpek and his bo ston-based visual crew, “the psychedelic friends network” After the party Yyves made a point to find Bob and let him know how much his work was a ppreciated – and, in return, Bob said the same thing as he and all the Bo ston artists who attended the party were treated like kings and queens al l weekend! It may have been a weekend of “work” for some, but Bob’s artwo rk and Yyves hospitality made it great! But Dragon’s Dream III was not Bob’s only masterpiece in October 2004! Returning home – inspired by the turnout and response he got in Canada – Bob went right back to work in th e studio to prepare for KRI’s coming Halloween visit. Three weeks later, he emerged and displayed the fruits of his labor! A gigantic eight-foot l ifelike Spider with an equally impressive flouro-digital web as the backd rop, foamcore bats, and giant jack-o-lanterns suspended from the ceiling with ominous bolts and chains! KRI and Lauryn killed the place that night – but even their musical artistry couldn’t overshadow the brainfarts and manifested ideas which poured into Psyforia from the minds and hands of Bob Trahpek and the Psychedelic Friends Network that night!! As Bob would say, “It was cool, man! Right?” Twice in one month! Astounding and fo r the performance, I give the 2004 Visual Display of the Year to Bob Trah pek and the Psychedelic Friends Network. STAY TUNED next time as the c eremoney continues with: 2004 Track of the Year….. 2004 Album of the Yea r…. and 2004 Persons (local AND international) of the year!!

#3505 Mon, 27 Dec 2004 13:36:51 Mon, 27 Dec 2004 13:36:51 Cc: nyc604, gayisraelis More on the tsunami disaster – trance party saved lives Looks like Koh Phangan was spared… thank God Party saved many Israelis from disaster PHUKET, Thailand – It’s hard to believe the Israeli Foreign Ministry would praise any form of rave party, but that is exactly what happened after yesterday’s huge earthquake in Indonesia. Israel’s consul in Bangkok, Yaakov Dvir, said the number of Israelis hurt by the tsunami on Koh Phi Phi island was low because most Israeli vacationers went to the big “Full Moon” bash on Koh Phangan island. At press time, it was still not clear how many Israelis have been hospitalized in Phuket. The modern Bangkok hospital has no more free beds for the injured, as all the visitors’ benches have been turned into beds and children are lying on towels in hallways. A food-distribution stand has been placed in a corner instead of the meals being distributed as usual to patients. Shabtai Majer, 65, of Tel Aviv, was moderately injured and is in the hospital after coming to Thailand to celebrate his 45th wedding anniversary with his wife Sara. Yesterday morning, the couple set out to visit the small island of Phithi. “Shortly after the boat landed, I saw that the sea was just disappearing and I told my wife somthing was wrong and that we needed to run,” Majer said. “We ran to a small, three-story hotel near the beach. I opened the door and we both went in. I thought we were safe. But then there was a terrible boom and a huge wave washed over us. The walls collapsed and I was buried under water. I was saved only by an air pocket there.” Asked about his wife’s fate, Majer’s lips tremble. “I think she’s gone,” adding: “We took out a loan to go on this trip.” An hour later, and 14 hours after the event, Majer learned that his wife survived and is hospitalized in another hospital. The staff of the hospital where Majer is has organized lists of the injured, according to country of origin. During his visit there, Israeli consul Dvir saw Israeli Yaron Weiss, 28. A Kfar Vradim resident, Weiss and his wife Lilach arrived in Phuket after a long trip in New Zealand. After breakfast yesterday morning, they decided to return to their hotel to pay their bill. Weiss says this decision saved his life: “It was like in the movies. We saw the water approaching and hoisting huge objects. We escaped into a bar where we climbed onto the tables. The water reached our legs. After the water receded, we started back to the hotel and then the second wave came. It carried us both down the street along with cars, scaffolding and heaven knows what. My legs were injured, but I didn’t feel anything because I was sure Lilach drowned and I could think only about that. A Thai dragged me onto a roof. I started screaming ‘Lilach, Lilach, and then I heard her answer me.” Weiss and his wife got separated during their evacuation, and he doesn’t know how seriously she was injured, but is happy knowing she is alive. The next hospital looks far less modern. There are improvised beds and stretchers at the entrance to receive the injured and at 2 A.M., ambulances are bringing in helicopter evacuees from the area. There is a huge bulletin board with the names of hundreds of injured patients. Dozens of family members gather around them. In the wards the crowding is great – sometimes more than 30 patients per hall. Dvir receives a list of Israelis from the hospital staff, and one approaches them in the hall: Esther Ilam. She and her husband Moshe were on Phi Phi Island when the waves hit. Moshe’s leg was slightly to moderately injured, but he was unable to walk and Esther and other Israelis carried him to safety. “I can’t swim,” he says. “The wave washed me out to sea holding onto a closet door. I have no idea how I survived.” His wife, like many other Israelis, adds that she is worried that it will be very difficult to return to Israel after all their papers and belongings have been washed away.
