People seem to think the "glory days" of trance didn't have shitty tunes...Well...tell you what, there were a lot of shocking tunes made in 90s/00 but because we have more people in the industry, there is a lot of gold under a big pile of shit. You just got to have the passion and patience to dig through and you'll definitely find good trance. I also realized that relying upon "DJs" is a thing of the past. They are biased and will not play the tracks you want them to play.They don't experiment.They rely upon the same god damn label and artist and play it conservatively. To put a stop to this, I Instead, I went out and searched on my own...on beatport/juno that is. And guess what? I found the music that didn't get the attention it deserved. I'll probably get bashed for this but what the hell...I'll say it anyway...2012 has been the greatest year of trance...Too bad you people are too lazy and short-sighted to dig through the pile of shit that the mainstream assholes make. I know a lot of you are lazy,unenthusiastic and a bunch of pirates, who can't be fucked looking through beatport.Otherwise, you wouldn't be bitching about how they don't make good tunes anymore.

Isn't Simon Patterson getting into psytrance too? I listen to his latest podcast and he was playing some psy tunes and he mentioned he was doing a collaboration with Astrix.

Indeed that is wtf, especially as I have noticed a trend of doof's to not book many psy artists. Take Rainbow for instance, there has been a decline in how much psy is played over the years, driving the psy fans to turn to smaller events like Maitreya (by far my fav doof based on music alone). This year's Rainbow lineup has me second guessing whether I want to go or not and I have actually suggested to friends it is more hipster than hippy.

I have also noticed it is driven from the Techno fans, last night for instance Bozdin pulled out of Strawberry Fields. Facebook fans went up in a rage stating "Don't replace him with a psy dj"

For me personally, psy is better in the outdoors. I hate winter and being stuck in a club where i can't cause havoc and run around like a tard. I just feel with the major doof's this season things have shifted. In saying that, farrrrrrrrrk can't wait for Eclipse

i've always had some love for psy in all it's genres. Specially Israeli full on trance but i still listen to everything The digital blonde and the J00F label releases.

Most of the headliners for strawberry fields are techno or that really normal electronicey sortof progpsy though.

I think basically what's gonna happen is underground psy festivals get gradually bigger until they reach a certain point at which they just end up selling out at. Plus there's plenty of smaller psy events, there's about one a week in melbourne currently.

Royal doof is always gonna be good though, fuck yeh royal doof.

Hate the time of year it is, hate winter doofs, being so cold makes me miserable

I've actually only ever been to doofs in the winter, so I've gotta say they're awesome. Plus they seem to play darker music in the winter so that's convenient.
