Can anyone suggest some good psytrance producer/DJ's/groups/sets/etc. I've been listening to a few gigs or so of stuff I ripped off di.fm and a lot of it is pretty damn awsome, but most of what they play there seems to be by unknown/really underground artists, which makes it hard to obtain more of their stuff. I've checked out some Infected Mushrooms tracks, and honestly didn't enjoy them that much, so any good suggestions for what I should search for to obtain good psytrance, or websites which have archives of psytrance tracks/sets, or anything along those lines would be appreciated.

Thanks.

if u dont enjoy infected mushroom, chances are u wont enjoy a fucking lot of psytrance

I've got about 3 gig of stuff here that disagrees with you, but it's mostly internet radio sets or tracks done by relatively unknown artists, which makes it hard to search further for similar music.

name names, for all i know you might be talking about oldschool goa, early 00's swedish psy, minimal psytrance (though i think that subgenre died a few years back), progpsy, nitzhonot (), or just any full-on barring IM.

Strange Tale (August 2005) - DJ Monkey Do

Fullmoon Gathering, Asheville NC, USA (July 2006) - Kri

The 5th Element - Kameleon And Labyrinth

Megalomania - Space Monkey

etc.

Though honestly, I don't set a huge stock on genres and sub-genres, over-classification often gets in the way of just enjoying the music for it's own sake, imo. If it's psy, and it's good, recommend it and I'll check it out.

You should check out everything released on Suntrip Records, they have an own little goa trance renaissance going on, put on one of their records and it's like diving back into the past.

That is so not true. A lot of psytrance fans, including myself, despise IM.
