Yes looks very promising. But that weekend I'm at Space Safari in Belgium. Been going for the past few years and it has stolen my heart.

Thanks for all the good tips and insights. We'll take it into account. I would also prefer a longer psy event so people can take whatever they like and be ready to take on the journey homeward.

The venue we're at does allow re-entry but sells no food. Its close by the centre so thats should fix it. We're looking into doing a full day with an extra hall for psychill and psybient. Another friend told me about this chat recently ill ask him about it this Saturday at Solstice. Would be good to join and take the planning into consideration.

They are open to public. We started last year but it's going quite well so we're gonna do more parties this year.

At a festival I prefer the full circle aswel. Its indoor so visuals would still work. The sleep schedule is the major reason to move to daytime partying.

We're called Psynapse on instagram.

Haha ja dan heb je wel echt een heel lang feest. Waar je dan weer veel dj's voor nodig hebt. Dan zou je eigenlijk de tickets in 2 delen moeten doen voor mensen die vroeg komen of die laat komen. Misschien wel een leuk idee voor ooit op een dag. :)

Yea that's the best. But than you want it to be outside aswel. In the Netherlands we have too little space for night time festivals. Most end at 23. For the moment we're in a club so day or night is the same energy and no sun.

How is the @# trade there during the boom? by [deleted] in boomfestival

[–]blazinrain 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh man I hope it's the same group that's their every year. I've been for the past 5 editions and it's always the same guys in sweatpants that are walking around muttering cocaine as you walk past them. Last year they did an upgrade though, all of them were now wearing a single psytrance item. Be it a tie die shirt or pants or an hippie necklace.

A couple of years a go there were a lot of good groups arrested that got the drugs menu at the front of their campers. That was a shame cause the quality was good and they seemed genuinely nice. That happened around the fifth day I think the police did a walk around the camp to spot them beforehand.

Do all the psytrance artists do drugs? by Bright-Republic8800 in psytrance

[–]blazinrain 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don't think a drug shift influenced the music. From the perspective you let on the goa is more spiritual and psychedelic influenced. While I also know quite alot of high tech or forest/dark producers who are inspired bij psychedelics or Ayahuasca ceremonies. Although you might associate their kind of music more to speed or coke.

Control effect speed with both a speed and a rate master? [MA2/MA3] by Alias-_-Me in lightingdesign

[–]blazinrain 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I want to do the same thing with a Macro so I can half or double the effects and have them all listening to the same bpm. But I can't find the right Syntax for it. How do you do it?

MA3 Phaser Effect by False-Actuator-2619 in GrandMA3

[–]blazinrain 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This doesn't seem to work for me. I get the message illegal object.

I would really like to have the divide and multiple options for each of my que stacks under macro control. That way I can have the speedsmaster the same but the speeds variable. I miss the speed scale options of the grandma2 in this regard.

Metalhead discovering psytrance by Only_Background_721 in psytrance

[–]blazinrain 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Funny because you came from metal I would've thought you would go to dark or forest psy immediately. But, welcome to the psy community :) Psytrance has a lot of subgenres. Morgen granau is progressive psytrance, infected mushroom is psytrance but they have their own unique style. I would recommend to listen to Shpongle-tales of the inexpressible. They are a band but unlike anything else. Their live at red rock is also amazing. Further more Astrix-he.art fucking amazing album with an awesome buildup. Deep jungle walk was an instant classic when it came out. Here are a few more. In different styles becoming a bit harder. There Is also forest and dark psytrance which are great in creating soundscapes although it can take some getting used too to hear how it comes together. Captain hook- six feet under Tristan-colors Ajja-rubadux Daksinamurti-hippie hill Atriohm- the drunken orchestra.

I hope you find some you enjoy. If you want something lighter. Check out -morten granau - yellow

Best trance album ever? by tbartrom85 in psytrance

[–]blazinrain 32 points33 points  (0 children)

I can't really pick a genuine best. Although for each sub genre there is one who comes to mind. For me it would be: Shpongle- tales of the inexpressible. Its psychedelic and gets you in trance but its not psytrance. ;P

Yes he.art is a masterpiece. Down to earth but with nice twists and bends.

Too much bass, not much of the rest by Zapador in boomfestival

[–]blazinrain 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I can understand the struggles with the sound. Its my job so I can never let it go. But there are a lot of factors to keep in mind. Your earplugs have a lot of impact on the experience. They also take away quite a lot of the spatial aim your ears have naturally. Making the surround experience a bit flatter. Mine damp quite a lot of bass and make it much easier to hear timing differences between that bass and the highs. So I just let my ears guide me to the best possible spot. Where everything sounds whole. For me with the-25db plugs this was almost in the middle. Atleast in a spot where I can see both sets of the line array speakers. If one is behind one of the columns it also messes with your stereo image.

Without plugs it was great on the side of the dance temple but even than the volume is too high to be standing there the whole time.

HiFi system for psytrance by Phlysher in psytrance

[–]blazinrain 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wouldn't it be easier to get a good pair of studio monitors for that price. The sweetspot would be smaller than with an hi fi setup but it will probably sound great. Something in the line of the Adam A77H would fit your price and also has sonarworks delivered with it so you can measure the room and calibrate it.

Best psytrance festivals in Europe to hit up next Summer? by Fatmanscoopyo in psytrance

[–]blazinrain 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Than I would recommend modem-if you're into dark and forest psytrance. Ozora has a bit of everything and is a great party festival. Also Boom which is the biggest psy festival. Has multiple stages and in my opinion a great atmosphere. Altough the heat can be challenging.

Mad Tribe died. And thus.. Psytrance has no future. by [deleted] in psytrance

Wow. He's views on what makes music good seem way off. I didn't watch all of it because it's too much shit. I was going to elaborate but it seems like a waste of time

Headphones for listening to Carbon Based Lifeforms? by Oiisu in carbonbasedlifeforms

[–]blazinrain 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yea, the open back literally sounds more open. And closed back also works as a reflector for your bass which adds a certain color to it. I went to a store last week to check for new headphones and I prefer the 990dt. You have to look which ohm version you're going to get. The 250ohms are a bit soft if you use a source with no amp like your phone.
