i was wondering wot happened to a few posts :)

it wouldnt have to be huge, but the price of neccessities(security/toilets/land) would play a big part in the final ticket prices tho we wouldnt go thru with it if it was unaffordable... from a plan we put together ideally $70 for non stop partying 6pm friday til noon sunday including a few interstaters & 1 or 2 touring internationals but that is based on hypotheticals so we'll have to wait n see wot becomes available in the comming months to make an accurate estimate...

but fingers are crossed! :yinyang:

How on earth is psy-trance in it's infancy when it pre-dates the whole "HardDance" movement by almost a decade?

As Simple Psyman pointed out; it's still mostly underground, with the majority of parties going on all the time without advertising in the rave scene.

Damn fine parties, too...

And parties which I would be at a lot more often if I actually heard about them. It's possible to be too underground ;)

indeed indeed, a few of the TranceAdelaide parties i've been too have felt much more rave like than any Hard Dance or DnB parties i've ever seen. top people, interesting locations, fantastic DJs, shit all promotion and free to anybody! :angel:

the Psy/Goa scene has deep roots in the underground here and i get the feeling that alot of the people involved want it to stay that way. they despise these commercialised "rave" parties.

Not really, if there is a good crew of people and close friends having a great time without being bumped by yet another 'roid-ridden wannabee dealer chewing their lower lip off on the dancefloor it's all good ;)

There are plenty of things to do and go to for Ravers, you guys are lucky.
Thing is, some of us kinda want to get away from that and protect our parties from undesirables.

Psy and Techno shows these days share one thing in common: these shows exist for the sole purpose of providing an outlet for people interested in music that never gets played at a commercial rave.
In other words, money is only as important as to cover costs.
We put them on to have fun with our friends, that's it.

Thing is, it's really not that hard to find out about these shows, you just have to understand that personal interaction between people is more important than printing up yet another batch of street polluting flyers.

both of ya's nailed it

Davy... ur dead right about other crews wanting to keep their events the way they are & we (S.u.N) will not be changing them.

we had incredibly deep discussions & came to the agreement that S.u.N is like a mezzanine level somewhere between Raves & the deep underground attracting some of both scenes & agreed the music should be @ raves(like it is interstate/internationally) but they're not the ppl to do it... however those of us with a raving heritage are :) ...
we wil NOT be commercialising anything, we're just making this awesomely broad style of music accessable to those who are allready into all forms of electronic dance music & understand the concept of respecting ppls space...
also there will never be any TV or general radio advertisments & Flyers will now only be in strategic locations so those that should find it can :wink:

its pretty farkin xPSYting times tho eh :thumbsup:

oh yeah.. anyone who's not goa'n to ignition & wants to catch some bangin' psy/goa between 2-4am (after other hard type stuff) this saturday nite @ LeRox/Bridgeway, i'm playin from 2 - 3 then its the SubterrAlien show!

hope we c some of ya's out~there :alien:

blast from the past this tread - but is something i wanto maintain and keep up to date of albums, tracks and events to support psy.

been awesome of late - psy has featured at many big events, and being pushed by some top DJ`s.

Got 2 albums in the post today:

Psycraft: computech : recomend this one. Psycraft production is TOPS with this album - a big leap for them. very crisp sound, wikid samples. LOVE IT.. easy to listen psy.. this is my fav. album atm.
http://saikosounds.com/english/display_release.asp?id=5371 u can listen to samples here..

Full On 5 - Trance Waves: a compilation with plenty of big tracks by astrix, space cat, illumination, IM, good album!

saikosounds.com is great for buying psy - i get my music in 3 working days from them! and their based in Honk Kong.. Great people to!!

keen to discuss!

On the event front: check out inPSYght - coming up at black cat on the 23rd of this month. (check the link in my sig)

a good friend of mine produces his own psy trance in adelaide, he is a hippie from canada that goes by the name of "Jota". He is part of the Deleria crew and he also makes decorations for psy trance parties. I once helped him make the decorations for a party in Bali at a place called Amnesia, He currently lives in adelaide and his work is pretty awesome.

Adelaide Earthcore in the park!!

Question, I caught the shpongle (simon posford? hallucinogen?) set at last years earthcore and it was one of the most wicked and insane, sets I think I've ever seen, someone told me that his stuff isnt really classed as psy, if it isnt, what is it?
SHPONGLE!!

Earthcore - brilliant.

Is that on the long weekend in March? :thumbsup:

Check out the psy-trance 4parter on their download mixes:
Brain Damage Radio
Reminds me of a few of the 'krusty' house parties i've been to in Adelaide and Melbourne. You know empty the house of furniture, set up and go off! I love hippies man. They do wicked psytrance....
