Anyone else been moving to Psy lately?
Over the last year particularly, i've been fed up with a lot of the mainstream trance. However John 00 Fleming showed me a whole new world. I've found to really love "Psy-Trance" if you will, and also the more progressive side. My favorite artists right now are Airwave, John 00 Fleming, Timewave, and Lyctum. Anyone else been making a migration toward the more Psy oriented trance? What do you like about it?
People here have been moving towards more psy influenced sounds for years since it's pretty much the only style of trance left that has even an ounce of credibility.
I've been into Goa for a while. Suntrip Records <3
Always found psy to be so fucking boring, thats what killed GOA music. Those producers you mention fuse psy and regular trance together and thats why it works. Regular psy is as bad and generic as the crap Armin play every week
Love it. Fav bit is the basslines :P
From the list of Artists you mentioned you will also like these:
Activa - just made the progression from trance to psy, love his new sound http://soundcloud.com/activa/activa-live-midnight
Ovnimoon- http://soundcloud.com/ovnimoon/ovni...nd-dj-set-10-12 (sound quality isn't the best)
Protonica- http://soundcloud.com/protonica/for...n-album-preview
Personally, I really enjoy progpsy loving everything Ritmo touches these days, quite possibly my fav dj. Love Captain Hook as a producer, am yet to see him play (will be rectified next month when I get to stalk him over Oz).
Best song of last year.
Everyone is heading over to psy now. While I enjoy dancing to it and prefer it over execreble fluff/electro/vocal trance, I'm not really convinced it's the future. Even the respectable names like Ovnimoon, E Clip, Ritmo and so on have a very generic and predictable sound that recycles the same few techniques and timbres. It just happens that the formula they follow is a little more credible than that of mainstream trance, but it still gets pretty dull pretty fast.
The stuff I really love is essentially deep, progressive trance with a minor psychedelic twist: stuff like Solar Fields or Cosmithex.
I've listened to psy-trance since like 1997. Haven't in a while though.
I'm not moving because i never left. Always listened to Full On Psy Trance but started listening Prog Psy only a year ago, and i thank that to mr. J00F 
I moved to it pretty much after I got into mainstream trance.
My dad listened to trance (and so did I) when I was about 3. I got into it again when I heard an advertisement on the TV for gatecrasher classics and recognised some of the songs.
I then very quickly realised there weren't even enough decent trance tracks to fill a 3 disc cd, let alone enough to listen to.
I'd definitely be up for more euro trance if there was more of it that was reasonably complicated.

One of few sub-genres I've never been into and probably never will be either.
Thank you to those who won't be moving onto psyscene.
We don't need anymore douches like you anyway...This is how uplifting trance got so exhausted and butchered, because we had an influx of assholes like you,who ruined it for the people who did enjoy it. The less popular a particular trance genre is the better...Lets keep it that way...
For a moment there I thought "Gangnam Style!" when reading the title.
I've heard some psy I liked (had to make a mix of the stuff for a TA genre competition a few years back), some that bored me... not something I'd go out of my way to listen but I like J00F and Solar Fields and other artists who are making, like Jack said, "deep progressive trance with psychedelic influences". It's the sound that most closely resembles the golden days of the progressive trance that I love.
The actual genre of "progpsy" though, I d/led a few mixes and it just kinda plodded and bored me. Anybody have recommendations for good progpsy?

Stop trolling, Matt.
that joke was wack indeed.
I can only tolerate psy trance if it has progressive condiments.

| Originally posted by Lunar Phase 7 System is 110% right with this post. Some elements of psy and goa have been around for well over a decade. Literally identical, there are moments of brilliance, but it still ends up giving you an earache after a long listen. |

To me Psy is alright, I like prog psy better. Only thing i don't like about regular psy is the same kind of bass drum and uplifting baseline. I like a little variation like Timewave.
To me, the Cosmithex/Ovnimoon stuff is boring.
However, this is actually pretty cool:
