Astral Projection - Ambient Galaxy (Disco Valley Mix)

I've never really explored psy-trance but this song blows my mind. Which other Astral Projection songs have a similar sound? On top of that, which other psy-trance artists should I check out?

edit: switched "minds" to "mind" - im not schizophrenic

Hmm well Ambient Galaxy is ambient stuff of course, sometimes called (by mean anyway) psybient. Astral Projection have done a few others in that style, beatless that is. Check out:

Ambience
Still On Mars
Still Dreaming (Anything Can Happen)

Another great ambient psy track that comes to mind:

Psydrop - City Of God

Also:

Ja�a - Sommeil Paradoxal

Now then, I maintain (and I'm not alone) that Astral Projection's older works are best. I'd recommend the following:

Mahadeva
Power Gen
Kabalah
Dancing Galaxy
People Can Fly
Liquid Sun
Black & White
Aban Don - Crystal
Aban Don - State Of Mind (Mental Mix)
SFX - Butterfly Trip (Energy Sweep Mix)

But in fairness you can't go far wrong if you try the Dancing Galaxy, Another World or Trust In Trance albums.

Some other tracks you'd probably like:

Infected Mushroom - None Of This Is Real
Infected Mushroom - Mush Mushi
Blue Planet Corporation - Crystal
Blue Planet Corporation - Open Sea
Chi-A.D. - Exit Eternity
Chi-A.D. - Astral Warrior
Chi-A.D. - Eye Am The I
Talamasca - Talafrica
Talamasca - The Missing Link
Bamboo Forest - Tilt
Bamboo Forest - Infinity
Psydrop - Vox Populi
Psydrop - Space Alliance
Human Blue - Dream Creator
Human Blue - Carpe Diem
Dimension 5 - Deep Space 5D
Dimension 5 - Polaris 2
Melicia - Genesis
Melicia - Experience
Alien Project - Crystal Skulls
Alien Project - Midnight Sun (GMS Remix)
Elysium Project - Pure
The Infinity Project - Stimuli
Logic Bomb - The Third Revelation
Ja�a - Rebirth
Ja�a - Breathing Ocean

Check out the whole Dancing Galaxy album from Astral Projection. Not a single boring track on that one. If you don't want to get the album then just get Astral Projection - Dancing Galaxy. Ambient Galaxy is a ambient/chillout version of Dancing Galaxy. They both have very similar sounds.

hm some really good recommendations up there..
although most of them like psydrop and infected mushroom are more like...'hardcore' psytrance will astral projection is more melodic IMHO

Posted by Ian on Apr-09-2004 10:25:

if you wish to explore mad upbeat psy with melodies and fx to blow your mind, check out Eskimo, Protoculture & some Space Tribe stuff too

I'm just getting into psy myself, but really enjoying it, just something a bit different from the usual asot sound trance that seems to need a kick up the ass

this cd is all that u need

Try "Iridium - 12,000 Suns". I'm fairly certain it is an Astral Projection production, and it's more similar to Ambient Galaxy than any of their other works.

I love most of the recommendations so far, and have a couple of my own. You mentioned a very PSY/ambient (for lack of a better term) track of AP's, while most of their stuff is pretty bangin.

Check out some Sphongle or Doof for the more laid-back chill style, or some Ticon or Bamboo Forest for the more upbeat & bangin style.

And now that you've heard one AP tune, you've got to hear them all. You'll become a fanatic soon because all their stuff is sick! I think you can still grab all their tunes off of mp3.com/astralprojection IIRC. The version of Mahadeva on there is the best version I've heard too. It's different than the version I have on their album and a must hear!
