The throbbing, groggy bass in Fever Dream 's murky post-punk songs sounds like an addict who just can't quit his habit. Every so often, triumphantly, he flushes all the drugs down the toilet; "this time it's for ever", the real deal, except it's not, it never is, and inside his head he knows it's not, he knows that in two months he'll be repeating this symbolic performance, and it'll be just as pointless, just as contrived, and the only truly brave thing to do would be to admit that he can't quit, that he's weak, that the resolve is lacking, that the need is just too [...]

Sunburn is still going strong into its fifth year as India's premier electronica, trance, house festival. This year, Sunburn promises to be even bigger with 90 artists performing on seven stages including two new label stages - Defected in the House Stage and the Toolroom Knights Stage. We're incredibly excited about going Pete Tong as this electronica veteran makes his debut on these shores and it's always fantastic to have Skazi back in Goa doing what they do best. The lineup includes Sunburn regulars like Pearl, Sanjay Datta, Jalebee Cartel(pictured), Nawed Khan, Ma Faiza, Vachan [...]
Sak Noel is one sick Spanish DJ and producer. Funky, fresh and fine, the newest club beat Loca People is one of my new favourites. It's just about perfect for anything. Sak Noel - Loca People All day, all night [x8] What the f*ck!? When I came to Spain and I saw people party I [...]

Personality does a lot for a festival. V Festival, although it has the money to hire some of the top bands in the world, utterly fails as a festival for me because the V might as well stand for Vibeless; a bland, corporate event with about as much magic as a staff training day at Barclays. On the flipside, when I went to Big Green Gathering in 2007, I only managed to catch about two bands but I had one of the best weekends of my entire life, because BGG is pretty much constructed entirely from pure magic. Nozstock, a [...]
You know we're always down for some fresh progressive psytrance here at LessThan3, and it's been too long since my last psytrance post, which highlighted the mesmerizing sound of former Grunting Mad Scientists Riktam & Bansi . Today, hot from the studio over at Panzar Productions, we bring you a taste of Sleeping Giant , the new EP by Elegy aka DJ Mension. Some tracks on Sleeping Giant most closely reminiscent of the likes of psytrance superstars Infected Mushroom , with others maintaining a slightly more novel sound. Some of my favorite tracks [...]
It's been a while since we had some proper Psy our Aerial Noise antennas and by golly, Rubi Yakubov and Anton Lunev aka System Nipel can deliver the goods! Born from the hometown of Be'er Sheva in Israel, these men sure know how to stroke the emotional heartstrings and tense those muscular dancing feet. On [...]
It's been a while since we had some proper Psy our Aerial Noise antennas and by golly, Rubi Yakubov and Anton Lunev aka System Nipel can deliver the goods! Born from the hometown of Be'er Sheva in Israel, these men sure know how to stroke the emotional heartstrings and tense those muscular dancing feet. On the bonus links we have another re-take on the Red Hot Chili Peppers by Reno & Tahoe Basin's unbelievable Love And Light – and another one of their numbers covering Muse's 'Unintended.' Major shake-ups of audio sound here ... [...]
When Riktam & Bansi began spinning together two years ago, I don't know if they foresaw the monster looming over them in the horizon, but whether or not they did, these guys are visionaries. When they dropped Green Space and The Red Line a couple years back, I never could have seen Constructor coming. Constructor , the lovechild of Shajahan Matkin (also known as Riktam) and Joseph Quinteros (Bansi), is the lovechild of two psytrance masterminds, and is a stunning example of this eclectic genre's apex potential. The duo met as [...]

Here is another gem from Velcro City Records. This time, however, we are moving from the progressive to the downtempo landscape of Deep Focus's Born . The VCR family has been spinning out quite a few successful releases lately. I am really liking the unorthodox sound all of their artists continuously put together.

![BRANNOCK – Radar [Redbox Records]](http://cdn.elbo.ws/posts/3351804_lg.jpg)
Based from the sunny constraints of the Republic Of Ireland, Brannock's dedication and time spent in studying for sound enginerring and music production course has unleashed an inspired and flurreous array of talented remixes, with well thoughtout EDM bombs. Being signed up to the Platinum Entertainment Agency sure hasn't dented his creative vision, so with Armin van Buuren , Markus Schossow and Scot Project on his tail for immediate track support, ' Radar ' with its current list of remixers will lift this into the Above & Beyond-like skies for sure! A sensational record is [...]

Argentinean trance isn't really a phrase you would hear most often but personally is one that I would always feel very comfortable with. Psychedelic trance (or psy trance for short) was known as goa trance before it evolved into psy back in the mid nineties and is massively popular all around the world and back again. So on Valentine's Day (no less) we shortlist some Skyloops' tracks to showcase their value in sound and to put some of their 'his & her full-frontal-action' out there - so that you can get 'all nice n' cozy @ home listening' or [...]

January has been full of trance bombs, and one tune that stands out amongst that pack is Mood Swing by Northern Ireland's own Simon Patterson. Mood Swing received Tune Of The Week on A State of Trance and with great reason; Simon has cranked out another phenomenal production that really captures its title. Mood Swing starts off dark, techy, and loaded with layers of psytrance. Simon paints an emotional picture reminiscent of psychosis, then lifts you up with a passage filled [...]
If you've got the post-Sunburn blues, or post-Sunburn sunburns for that matter, it may be time to slather on that sunscreen and head back to Goa. Channel [V] has announced Indiafest, a nationwide inter-college festival that will feature sets by psytrance heavyweights Skazi and Shpongle. Scheduled to be held February 4-5 at Cavelossim Beach in Goa, the lineup with also feature New Delhi electronica act Jalebee Cartel , Bollywood crooner Mohit Chauhan and indie rock dinosaurs Indus Creed . A strange addition to the bill comes in the form of Los Angeles indie rock outfit The Rescues, mentioned [...]
