Indeed, but it does border on Hardhouse don't you think?

I'm a big fan of guitar psy (aka buttrock goa), and IMO S.U.N. Project are the masters of this style. I've heard all of their released albums & tracks, and haven't found anything I don't like yet.

You can check out some samples at www.sun-project.de

I like the guitar in infected mushroom - bust a move

Dont think so, as i dislike hardhouse very much.

If it's done to compliment the track rather than used as a novelty, then sure.


Unfortunately, I've noticed the latter tends to be more the case.

Then you've just not heard the stuff that it sounds alot like

Not the bouncy cheesy hardhouse, the stuff they call NRG or whatever.

i find that 90% of the time guitars are used in a badly done way that it just makes the tune sound shit. Psy is the worst for it because the beats and basslines are very smooth and rounded as opposed to the guitars which are very analogue and metallic. This combo usualy goes bad if there isnt enough roughness to the texture of the non-guitar parts.

There has been the odd tune which do it in a much better way to fit the riffs into the track creating a nice interesting synergy, rather than make it sound like a guitar tune dumped over a beat. Theyway this is achieved is usually by breaking down the guitar riffs and using them in interesting manners or reconstructing them to flow with other parts of the track.

no!

for me anyway

for most of the times, and especially when it comes to israeli full on guitars are awful. the same goes for Infected Mushroom, Skazi and 1200 mics.

one of the very few decent israeli tunes it works well within is this one:

sample

however there are a few more exeptions. System 7 makes great groovy psy stuff and it works really well there.

remember that both him and her are in their 50s :-)

What are the tracks in the first vid?

They rock! (pardon the pun)

yeh, like if you mean skazi type than i rather not.

haha

burn skazi

what's the song on the first video
It's really beutiful

What are they doing exactly on the Video? is the guy playing the guitar and at the same time DJing, or it's just a Live Performance?

works well in 'as a child i could walk on the ceiling" by the delta at least.

it's System 7 - Planet 7.
It seems that he is playing the guitar and she is handling most of the equipment.
