Went to Infected Mushroom at Bluesfest here in Ottawa over the weekend. It was weird seeing them during the daytime, outside. They played all right, and the crowd was really into them. And there were no flag wavers which was a bonus.

Also saw the Wailers play that night. What a vibe THAT was. Awesome.

That sounds terribly odd. Was this for some city-run event or festival? I guess it is a measure of how far outside the movement they are...

How about a dose of American psytrance?



SHAPESTATIC - METAPHIM
01 :: Platform (7:39)
02 :: Lightened (8:02)
03 :: Dancefloor (7:27)
04 :: Dream This (8:05)
05 :: Time Flies (7:19)
06 :: Drum (8:12)
07 :: Blastorb (8:07)
08 :: Grain (8:10)
09 :: Paralyzed (9:10)

Shapestatic is Chris Johnson (AKA Kri) and Alex Falk (AKA The Bastard) from the Appalachian Mountains of the southern United States. Typifying the growing Psytrance scene in that region, Shapestatic’s debut release Metaphim on North American record label Gaian Mind is a bombshell collection of raw, energetic, and passionate tracks meticulously put together with not a moment of sound wasted. Metaphim combines in-your-face bass lines with gritty, acid-drenched synth strata, tight percussion, tweaked-out samples, and purposeful harmony. Hard-edged and very psychedelic, yet still bouncy, positive, and musical, Shapestatic bears a sound which is wholly unique to America. Metaphim will keep your body moving well into the first rays of dawn!

Yeah, by no means do I consider them still psy-trance, they are kind of stuck in a musical netherworld. But they have been able to build a fanbase that will go see them - whereever they play.

I respect that, and I still like to support music outside of "the norm".

I like and appreciate music "outside the norm" but I don't think their new stuff is really any good, to be perfectly honest. Just a matter of taste, I guess! The problem is probably that I'm not much into pop music, and that seems to be what they're interested in doing these days.

Anyone here into techtrance? This is a great release!



MOMENTUM VOLUME 1
01 :: Nerso - Clarity (6:49)
02 :: PhaseTech - Phazer (7:56)
03 :: Excizen - Crips (7:02)
04 :: Opsy - Her Ghost In The Fog (6:56)
05 :: PhaseTech & Ectima - Momentum (7:02)
06 :: Ectima - Metal Isolation (6:34)
07 :: Kino Oko - Way To Obirsju (8:18)
08 :: Deto - Lavina (8:57)
09 :: Kocka - Hiper Kocka (4:04)

Momentum Volume 1 is the first in a new series of techtrance and progressive compilations from TesseracTstudio. Compiled by PhaseTech, Momentum gathers material from across East-Central Europe with a particular emphasis on homegrown Serbian productions. Sleek driving rhythms and gleaming cybernetic atmospheres infuse this stellar release with a rich futuristic ambiance. Momentum Volume 1 successfully revives the mood and style of post-millennial techtrance for modern audiences even as it paves the way for a new generation of mechanistic producers to move and shake the dance floors of the world.

I don't know whether 'pop' is quite the right term. Probably something more along the lines of psychedelic rock or something, which makes it much more accessible. They still put on a great show though.

Yeah, much more accessible.

There was a guy in his late 50's near me who seemed to be really into the music, even enough to lip some of their song lyrics. Not saying this is bad, but I didn't see that at Snoop Dog's show - which followed IM's set (yeah, it's a fucked up lineup for this "Bluesfest", I know).

While I wouldn't call it pop either, as you mentioned, it's a rock/psy"ish" music hybrid. But hardly groundbreaking.

I think it is a question of substance. Infected don't seem all that concerned with authenticity. Contrast them with Juno Reactor, another so-called psytrance artist that has "gone mainstream"... I don't think anyone would accuse Watkins of writing accessible filler for the masses.

The real question isn't so much about the music itself, but rather the artists. If IM are making this style of music because they love it, then that's well and good. But if they're making this style of music because it'll rake in the cash, then it's a bit dodge.

Tastes change, so there's nothing wrong with IM changing their tune to this newer 'psyrock' style, so long as it's for all the right reasons.

I would imagine a bit of both... which is fine for them, but not my sort of thing.

Oh, and I've a new one today... somewhat on topic, as it really tries hard to shatter the mainstream



CONTAGION VOLUME 1
01 :: Necrospycho vs Astaroth - Experimental Evil Jow (6:54)
02 :: The Herectic - Claustrophobic Dimension (6:53)
03 :: Distorted Goblin - Through The Night (6:36)
04 :: Demonizz - Arknofobia (6:49)
05 :: Psychoz vs Hagenith - Psycause (6:47)
06 :: Morus - Lithium Unbalance (8:16)
07 :: Psyhamaa vs Ikpeng - Fingers Vertigo (7:38)
08 :: Karmazon - The Calling (7:33)
09 :: Kita - Screams of Satinka (7:33)

Contagion Vol. 1 is the second release from Dead Tree Productions, a dark psychedelic trance label rooted in the Brazilian underground. Rebelling against the pervasive manipulations of mass media and pop culture, Contagion is an unlikely antidote for alienation and disillusionment. Through the use of twisted leads, brutal beats, and bleak atmospheric programming, this compilation explores the far reaches of the psytrance spectrum with some tracks approaching 160 BPM.

I noticed on the Eclipse 2008 site that they have a main stage and an alternative stage.

So 2 stages this year? Can anyone confirm...Shankar?

it seems like IM gets unfairly criticized these days for changing their style... imo, simply using "pop" as an influence for music doesn't always compromise quality or mean the artist is trying to sell out. take NiN for instance.. from the start they said they set out to apply industrial sounds on to the pop formula.

Well, Eclipse always had 2 stages. One is the main stage, one is a chill stage. This year they are expanding their musical boundaries to add more musical genres to the menu. The chill stage can no longer be classified as "chill", as it will have other genres to it. Thus the new name, Alternative Stage. This stage will include downtempo, breaks, some slow prog, and definitelly chill-out.

Sure, but would you really compare the songwriting and singing talents of Trent Reznor and, er, Duvdev?

Let's get real here.

Where was the second stage last year? I never even noticed it.

Ektoplazm is proud to be releasing Ekoplex's debut album Journey Of The Turtle just in time for Eclipse! CDs will be available for sale at the festival for $10. If you enjoy driving atmospheric psytrance--cruising along somewhere between full-on and the more upbeat side of progressive--be sure to check this album out!



Incidentally, this release is the first full-length album from a Toronto psytrance artist. Support local talent!

As far as I know, there was another stage last year. It was run by Sumkidz from Toronto. It had a great variety of dub and downtempo music.

Started to listen to this while getting read for work this morning. Only got through the first two tracks, but was pretty good so far. Will need to download the MP3 version and load it up onto my iPod later, should make some good workout music. Nice stuff - thanks.

Wicked, I'm glad you like it! I think that this one is an exceptional release... and interestingly enough, one that I've also had out with me on my pod while cycling. It certainly suits night riding in the city!

I like the fact that he isn't afraid to play good tracks that other DJs would merely consider to be too old for airplay. Magnetik is from 2003 and Inside is from 2004. Not old in the grand scheme of things but psytrance DJs have this annoying tendency of restricting themselves to whatever just came out--often without "learning" the music well enough to incorporate it into a proper journey.
