Info

Writing an introduction text for a new CD should be simple, like it always was. Only this time we are speaking about an exception. The first line I came up with was: “New Born is Tom Rarin, Tom Rarin is the music, the music is New Born’s soul.”

“How to describe some one’s soul?”

Not an easy task; impossible thy say? Indeed. Because Tom Rarin (aka New Born) is probably the most colorful and complex Goa artist walking around the scene these days. God, I love that! Only controlled by his own standards.

"Love within"

A colorful blend of emotions and sounds makes him the real “New Born” in the Goa scene of today. Only influenced and touched by his pure desire to make music and express himself in notes. With a very specific way of being creative he already set the world on fire with an epic musical poem “The Observer”.

Well this time it will not be any different. Let yourself be amazed and don’t hesitate to taste his “new born” music with your ears and an open mind (very important). Allow yourself being overwhelmed by his sensitivity. Don’t judge by only listening once: carefully, dive deep, dive deeper every time you listen. Become a part of the music, become a part of New Born, join his soul in notes within notes.

Cronomi Records are proud to present “The Portal” – debut album from Danish artist PortaMento.

While this is his first album release, PortaMento (aka Jesper Hahn) is a seasoned producer, who started making tunes as early as 1997 – inspired by the big acts from the golden days of Goa. After having honed his skills for a couple of years, he found himself emerging on a scene where most everyone else had left the party. Despite this, he stuck to his own style, and became one of the top underground artists. The music, while influenced by the Goa of the late 90′s, has a distinct deep, dark flow blended with psychedelic acidlines, atmospheres and multiple leads in complex arrangements. It is fast without being flimsy. Melodic without being cheesy. Smooth flowing without being repetitive. And each track has a story to tell, if you listen closely. But don’t take our word for i – The Portal is right there – see for yourself what’s on the other side.

So far that was the “official” release information stuff. Now I would like to add a few words of my own:
Until now, all of our CDs were manufactured in 1000 copies. This one would be only 500 copies. There are varied reasons for this (mostly financial), but you can treat it as a limited edition release. Even though I personally don’t like the term “limited edition” since it’s sort of a marketing gimmick and the music stays the same anyway, which is the important thing, for me at least. But hey! You got a limited edition out of this! Not only that, there is a bonus for those who actually support us by buying the CD. The inner artwork isn’t your generic artwork you find on all CDs, it’s a folded mini-poster which actually looks preety good so you can even put it on your wall for display or something.

Some words about the music itself: Cronomi records is mostly known as a “new school” label, but I think that our last compilation (Erta Ale) changed that image a bit with some real old school sounding tracks. This trend continues here. Not only this sounds old school, it is actually old school with some of the tracks written in the 90′s. This release is a mixture of old and new, with old tracks treated to sound new and new tracks treated to sound old. I’m saying this not only because I’m the label manager, but because I love music: This album kicks ass. This is how goa should sound, in the past, present and future. The tracks have this darkish feeling to them, yet melodic without being cheesy. Just brilliant. And the sound production is just perfectly solid without being too polished or sterile. I hope you enjoy it!

Some words about our philosophy

Our recent release, Erta Ale, has sparked some debate in the internet about what we do, and how we do it. Seems like there is a special love-hate relationship with our releases. Some people claim that we can’t keep a constant style, or have this elitistic or pretentious attitude. Other people love our releases and say it’s the best thing that happened to “neogoa” (thanks guys!).

Well, let me put my (Michael/Subra) opinion about this issue, and I’m sure DJ Inada (the other owner of the label) will agree as well. The current state of neogoa as of 2011, is that most of the music released is very melodic, very uplifting and very, well, “neogoa”ish. You know what I mean. We totally respect this music, and I even listen to it and enjoy it a lot. Hearing it on parties is a delight. But, and there’s a big “but” to it, it all sounds generic to me. I will explain what I mean by “generic”. I mean it in a totally descriptive way, not degratory at all. The thing is, it all sounds the same to my ears. Sounds like it was all made on a single virtual instrument patch, on the same scale using the same arpeggios. While it may be brilliant dance music, there is just too much of it. Most of the artists producing this music are also in their late teens or early twenties and I can totally understand it, since I was there too. But when you grow up a bit (and I’m not that old) your opinions change and you have differing views about music. You want to hear something different from this common style of neogoa (or any other genre – I’m sure that people in funk, metal, blues and rock also have the same opinion). You need something fresh for your ears.

We do not release the common neogoa because of that reason. This is of course not helping us to gain new friends. I can imagine the average artist thinking to himself “How come they say they don’t want this? This is an amazing track! I played it last night and everyone loved it!“. Well, it is an excellent track and I’d love it too if I was in that party, I’m sure. The thing is, there are already so many labels releasing this type of music so why should we? Maybe the emergence of the “free music” revolution is helping this, making releases too easy and contributing to the inflation in “generic” (again – descriptive, not degratory) type of neogoa.

Since our releases are pressed on plastic, and the artists and other people involved are paid, we have very strict quality control. Hey, even Inada himself forced some changes on my own track on Erta Ale, even though it’s actually my own label and I can do whatever I want. This lead to very slow release rate. We have about 1 release per year, and I really believe we should not release more than this 1 release. Nonetheless, it’s quite a compliment that some artists care about us enough to be acually offended by our rejection of their tracks (and publicly dislike our releases and artists after that).

We release stuff that sounds different. It doesn’t have to be in any specific style. Every time we hear something out of the ordinary that catches our ears, that’s a potential release. This explains our variety, from the minimal Anakoluth to the maximal Artha. We release music that we like, music that sounds properly produced to our (not that much) older ears. Apparently, this works, as our releases are constantly being voted as “best of” in various websites and forums. This is actually so constant that only our first release was never voted as a “winner” in anything. This of course makes us extremely happy and very proud of the artists that wrote the tracks. It gives them a reason to be proud, since Cronomi is indeed making a name of being a top quality, if not a “boutique”. We want our artists to work hard to create something which will last in people’s minds for long, and not be forgotten after a year or two. The artists are succeeding in this, and making our fans happy.

This brings me to my final point – Cronomi records is now 4 years old. This could not have happened without the support of our fans, which buy our music, and attend parties with Cronomi artists. I must give a huge “thank you” for our fans! We couldn’t be here today without you. Keep supporting our music and you will get more of this quality (just try to be patient please).

Michael/Subra.

Anakoluth

Anakoluth is Roman Hunziker, an electronic music producer from Zürich, Switzerland. His sound represents an uncommon fusion of modern minimal psytrance with classic Goa trance. For inspiration, Anakoluth cites the pioneering work of producers such as Zerotonine, Atmos, Sandman, and Sensient. Melding hollow grooves, otherworldly melodies, and spacious atmospheres, Anakoluth forges deep soundscapes designed to plunge the listener into the vast empty expanse of outer space.

Anakoluth has released numerous tracks on various compilation, including a track on Cronomi Records’ first compilation Freshly Cut Tomato. He has also released two free-to-download EPs, Dwelling In The Void on Ektoplazm and Beyond Reach on Cronomi Records.

Artha

Artha is Michał Bączek, Born in 1979 in Poland. His style is the essence of new school goa trance – blending the ultimate psychedelic touch reminiscent of the mid 1990′s. The music production is top notch, not falling behind any of the modern productions of contemporary mainsteam psychedelic trance.

So far, Artha has two releases on Cronomi Records, one being a free-to-download EP (Fluori Dolby) and a full featured debut album (Influencing Dreams).

In his own words:

Baas Complex

Goa trance duo from Denmark. The project died out in the late 1990ies, but Kenneth has ejected the project again in ultimo 2006.

Dragon Twins

More than 2 decades ago, in the year of the dragon, a twin was born, with an appetite that mother nature herself couldn't fulfill. Their diet didn't only consist out of the food that mankind consumed, but also out of deviant frequencies and acid-dripping harmonies – the key ingredients for a life full of fire. Since the digital tools couldn't provide those needs, it had to be found in the analogue world, where nothing ever is the same, and every horizon is as far as the imagination of every visitor of that world. This is where they found their second life. A place where the fires of creative freedom burn in every soul, willing to participate. Where passion equals freedom, and freedom equals inner bliss. And inner bliss means titties. Lots of titties. On a stick, smothered in honey. That's right. Sticky as fuck.

Aum Namaḥ Śivāya

Lapsus

"I am Lapsus, and the reason why I make psychedelic trance is just because it's the only thing coming out of my head.

Since I discovered Goa Trance when I was younger I was always fascinated by it. The genre Goa Trance is musically very challenging: the amount of layers, how to make melodies match harmonically & the way of telling a story which is in Goa Trance more important than any other electronic genre in my opinion. So my goal has always been to make music for myself. Music on which I would like to dance too and go nuts to on a party (I really like a lot of genres in psychedelic trance).

I'm a huge fan of Hallucinogen and Etnica but on the other side I'm also a huge fan of Derango, Psykovsky, which is a totally different approach on psychedelic trance. The creativeness/funkyness in Suomi is also something to learn from and I adore music like Krumelur and Sensient which is more on the minimal/techno side of psychedelic trance. But there is one thing common with all those artists: “It's all psychedelic and that's what I like.”

Experimental sounds, funny twists and details you sometimes hear and sometimes you don't. I guess that making psychedelic trance is the perfect outlet for my creativity. No limitations! Everything is allowed! So my goal is pretty much trying to make a combination of all those genres, trying to make something with its own identity!"

M-Run

Booking: m.run.bookings@gmail.com

Mario Matakovic a music producer settled in Croatia, combines the best of old and new production techniques with analog and digital synthesis of sound, bringing you one of his projects M-Run which delivers a new experience to the dance floor wreaking psychotic soundscapes with pumping groovy base lines and mystic melodies. As a resident of international music festival "Lost Theory", and regular performer in western part of Europe, M-Run takes a great strides to the list of valued performers.

New Born

New Born is the Israeli Tom Rarin, specializing in night-time oriented goa trance with a dark touch to it, yet it retains the melodies which make this genre so loved.

New Born has one track released on Cronomi’s second compilation – People Walk Funny. A second track was released on Erta Ale. He also has older material available on 2 releases on Ektoplazm – The Trip Of The Luna King and The Observer.

PortaMento

PortaMento is Jesper Hahn, born 1976 in Denmark.

The project came into existence in 1997, inspired by the great artists of the time and born out of the desire to make melodic tracks with a slighly darker twist. The very first tracks were made on a Roland W30 12bit sampler workstation using the built in midi sequencer. All composing was done using a tiny 240×62 dot monochrome display. This was soon replaced by a software sequencer and a growing sonic arsenal, at one time counting more than 20 vintage analog synths. However as software synths became more and more convincing, the hardware arsenal was reduced in size, and today only few are left. While the musical style has changed slightly over the years, the degree of outside influence, that is from the changing goa/psytrance scene, has been minimal. The main influence has remained the style of the late 90′s, Israeli artists in particular. Needless to say, the rewards have not been financial, but from listener feedback and seeing the crowd go nuts at live gigs.

He has one release on Cronomi’s second compilation People Walk Funny.

His debut album was released during 2011 – The Portal.

Psysutra

This mysterious name hides Łukasz Wiącek, currently living in Katowice. His interest in electronic music has begun when he was 14, after his brother introduced him to some nu school techno vinyl records. After a few years he stumbled upon psychedelic trance and fell in love for life. This made him start the Psysutra project - initially consisting of three people, currently - a solo project of Łukasz himself.

He is totally fascinated by the old school, 90's psychedelia, but still, sometimes accepts some newer sounds. Still, the acid squelches of TB-303, unique sound of MS-20, PolySix and SH-101 combined with the old variation of psytrance kick continue to define his production and performances.

So far his tunes were released on 2 complations - Deus Ex Machina on Pantha Deus and Analog Dream on Mosaic Dream. But - there's much, much more coming soon - a full album called Gamma Phoenicis (on Cronomi records) and a few V.A. tracks.

Until now Psysutra has performed at the following events:

Kinnara

Kinnara aka Eduardo Pires, 1986, lives and works in Alpiarça Portugal. He first fell for music aged 3, singing and playing drums. With 6 was really enjoying musicians such as Jean Michel Jarre and Vangelis and started to develop skills playing their songs on the keyboard. Eduardo entered the Golegã regional conservatory with 8 to learn music, chant and classical piano. Joins philharmonic bands of Alpiarca, Carregueira and Alvega with 14, playing the trombone, and later becomes trombone monitor for children.

At 18 acquires his first synthesizer and together with Igor Martins, a classmate from his Archaeology course, creates an electronic project named "Da Bunker Project". The two will end up making a live performance in the ancient Roman city of Tongobriga. In 2008 forms a trance project named .ZaNNaRa. with his childhood friend Daniel Zabot. Edurado starts composing ambient in 2009 with chill-out and progressive sounds in mind. Kinnara is a storyteller using sounds because he believes that words put limits to the expression of his own experiences into music.

Kurandini

Kurandini is the Goa Trance project of Yuri Rodrigues, a young Portuguese artist from Sintra. His point of entry into the constellation of Psychedelic Trance started around 2004 with Dark Psy and Yuri kept being inspired by this subgenre of Trance till 2010.

This is the year that marks the comeback of Goa Trance into the scene in full force with the Goadelic Freaks Movement and Yuri had never found a dance-floor vibe and melodies like this in the dark scene. His first Goa festival was the O.S.G. 2010 and he got wrapped in these spiritual hights ever since.

But Yuri had come from deep influences, and that was not going to subside entirely, it would only be lifted into the high spirited Goa Trance while still keeping the profound roots of Dark Psy. This is where the name Kurandini comes from, a mix between "kurandero" and "kundalini"

Kurandini.s music has deep atmospheres, followed by rhythmic leads full of energy. The black becomes colourful through melody and the light takes the key role with rays of mystic melancholy into a big spiritual vibe. It.s a deep journey with great soundscapes and lots of strength for body and mind.

As main references Yuri points out a few projects that range from classic Goa Trance to Dark Forest. His inspiration comes from artists such as Mystica, Miranda, Phreaky, KoxBox, Parasense, Hux FLux, Logic Bomb, Ra, X-Dream, Atriohm, Suria, Ajja, Para Halu, Penta,Aphid moon and others...

Kurandini had his first release in the compilation "Color of Goa" with "Kalindian" getting good traction among fans. He is now in the studio working in his debut album.

Subra

Subra is Michael Anenburg from Israel, who is also the head of Cronomi Records. Subra is the name of a star in the constellaion of Leo, which happens to be his astrological sign. The style here is totally different from the progressive mood of Felis, Michael’s other project. Subra is all about his modern interpretation of goa trance, or putting some new vibes into the old school. The Subra tracks are quite diverse as well, with fsome being slow and dark tracks while others being almost nitzhonot. One thing connects them all – psychedelic, acidic, 303ish, mind bending, goa trance.

Subra has been releasing music for quite a while under different monkers, including Mike A, Felis and of course Subra.

Djunasaurus

Discovered the sound of goa around 2005, when a friend asked him to take a listen to this so called "music within music", and was immediality intrigued by this sinister and mesmerizing music. The addiction soon followed, as well as the need to collect and thus discover more oldschool goa trance - a style that in the meantime was very close at heart. This also can be heard under his live artist alter ego 'Dragon Twins'.

As a DJ, he tries to emphasize the variety and psychedelic elements there used to be more of in this music. The night time is his favourite time, trying to create a moonmad crazyness for the bodies and minds on the dancefloor. But any other part of time will suit him as well - there's always joy in telling a musical story in different ways, as well as making people discover different musical connections within the goa style.

Sadewa

Sadewa is all about interpreting the happiness of trance, free, new Goa acid with an ear for vibrations of oldschool. Their sets are in frequencies "excited" (bpm high) or even "chill out". He is a member of the recent belgian label Cronomi Records (2008), focused on bringing the classic oldschool into modern production using new tools and, as a rule, no conventional pattern of mass production. Just free acid trance to be experienced.

Garobass

I discovered electronic music in the late 90s on a free party where I played acidtechno. Around the same period I started listening to the evening shows of goatrance radio and my passion for acid music naturally led me to goatrance. It was like revelation, the lowest bpm and the travels hypnotized my brain for the rest of my life.

I start my colllection vinyl from labels like Matsuri, step 2 house, polytox, TIP, celtic records, blue room and many more... Until 2007 I play the acidtechno on free parties because goatrance no longer existed in France. I bought a cdj 800 and started collecting CD's looking for acidic sounds on all labels that existed. Then I started playing in Belgium with the electromagnetik crew and my french sound system, this is where I met spacemushi who has been a DJ reference for me ever since.

I discovered festivals and the power of oldschool goa but I also invested in new generation music and I began to create my musical world. Today I mix monthly in France with more fans that respect this kind of music and who encourage me. My music is a mixture of new and old generation, always with acidic lines and sounds. I love playing at sunrise in the outdoors because the contact with the public is fabulous at this hour.

My goal is to create a structured mix with and intro and a frenzied end of very long transitions to mesmerize the area and leave a trace in the brain that will never be forgotten.

Greg Staikos

Greg Staikos was born in Athens the early 70s. His interest in music first arose while he was 10. Six years of seeking for new streams always in the margin of the scene, and then started mixing in public. At the same time another need was the radio producing. So, the 90’s find him as a pioneer of electronic music with performances at the most underground parties and clubs in Greece (trancemedia, sunrise zone residency, well known private open-air trance parties) and radio producer in the most famous underground music radio stations (Space, Life fm , Nrg fm). During 4 years his radio show ‘Mix Down’ on LifeFm was the one with the biggest audience giving a chance to interview and perform together with the most famous artists of the scene since early 90’s (Morales, J.Wink, C.J. Bolland. Goa Gill, Astral Projection, Tsuyioshi and many more). At that time started releasing his cds containing some of his personal tracks (cd compilations: astral trance vol I, II, trance experience 4, trance xpress vol 2,3,4, novatec tunes). At the year 2000 his 1st personal album with the project L.O.S. is released.

The 00’s is the decade of experimenting So performances vary from dark side of trance to 80’s and influences from all his music culture. Always follows the confirmation that there is only one way of expression that being against the flow and keep it underground, being in the background and always avant-guard. From all that way at the dance scene at the beginning of year 2010 emanates Life892.com Webradio. He's back to the psytrance scene and he's back to stay 4 good this time playing the best psytrance n goatrance tunes once again and producing his own music as "SHIVARATRI".. Story keeps rolling.. Stay underground and possesed..

Inada

Discovered Goa Trance on my trip to Greece in 1999, where I bought my first Goa Trance CD :“Goa Head 8”. What a bliss!!! The mind-blowingness of this music never let me go, so I started collecting these CD’s since then.

Now that I've build up a large collection over the past 14 years I often play at parties in my sweet home country Belgium and have had bookings outside of it (around the world): Germany, The Netherlands, Kosovo, Croatia, Georgia, Russia, USA, Israël, Roumania,… Playing next to artists like: Power Source, Artha, Total Eclipse, The Muses Rapt, New Born, Color Box, M-Run, Electric Universe, Xenomorph, Vibrasphere, Subcouds, Bypass Unit, Dimension 5, UX, E-Mantra and many more.

Running and managing Cronomi Records is like a dream come true: Making original new-made Goa Trance available for the world: Goa lives & Grows!!!

Infinite Light

Infinite Light is the name of a project that is focused in the mix of Goa Trance and Goa Ambient, the aim of this project is to create sonic voyages, through this two genres and deliver a multitude of feelings.

Inspiration Labels are : Cronomi, Koyote, Suntrip, Dragonfly, Matsuri, Phototropic,Glowing Flame,Peak, Ultimae, Cosmicleaf, Altar, Chillcode, Spiral Trax, Celestial Dragon and many more...

Enjoy Spiritual Goa Trance!

Kace

Kace is the alias of Łukasz Matkowski from Warsaw. It happened by chance that he encountered psytrance in the year 2000 when he arrived at a party with Parasense. He heard those sounds and saw the decorations and at once he knew this was what he had always been looking for. Soon after, he became a DJ himself and never tried to create theories and ideology of something so meaningful and obvious as music.

He plays good and old fullon and morning trance, goes back to the roots of goa and many classics which are skilfully combined into eclectic sets. He played at many events and supported numerous famous artists yet he thinks their names should not be mentioned here, taking into account that they personally have not chosen him for support.

Kuczer

I come from the northern part of Poland, from Gdansk. My journey with music started quite early. I started playing guitar at 13. Until recently I was playing with a metal band called Empire myspace.com/empire3miasto.

In 2004 my brother took me to the very first polish open air festival Moondalla. Since then I feel in love with psychedelic trance music. I play on turntables for 5 years now. My favourite type of trance is Goa, thanks to the variety and complexity. I am a vinyl lover, I also have a quite impressive collection of goa/psychedelic albums. Nowadays when most people play from syncs and computers I am still loyal to vinyls.

I had an opportunity to play in numerous cities across poland: warsaw, poznan, katowice,wroclaw, bialystok, slupsk, bydgoszcz, szczecin, ustka and almost all of open air's taking place in poland. In Gdansk I organize trance themed parties called "shiva space technology" Feel free to hear my set on mixcloud which was recorded on the radio in Warsaw during the audition nights psychedelic mixcloud.com/kuczer

Oktoman & Schlafwandler

Michael Münsti alias Oktoman startet to get in touch with electronic music in 1995. In 1999 Michael founded a organisation called Mansura prod. As organiser. This is also the starting point of his career as Dj. 2003 the organisation splitted off and he rarely stopped his work as Dj. In the year 2012 he restarted doing works with Green-spirit where he found the right people to share the same philosophy.

In my Dj mixes i like to give a journey through history of Psychedelic trance music playing tracks from the 90ies until sounds from nowadays. For me the act of Dj-ing is a shamanic ritual and a powerful excange of energy.

Pandanāndi

Booking: attackpanda@gmail.com

Brought up in the woods by a rag-tag bunch of tea-loving goblins and rough-and-tumble forest fairies, Panda emerged some years later with a knapsack of noises and a pinch of dementia dust. Nowadays, Pandanāndi is both a goa-trance and forest trance producer and DJ. Well known for his witchy, nocturnal trance music that skirts the darker edges of the genre while still remaining melodic and accessible, Pandanāndi is fully committed to the idea that live sets should create myths and tell stories.

When Panda plays goa-trance, he remains faithful to the true oldschool vibe of acts like The Infinity Project, Koxbox, and Hallucinogen. He shares with Cronomi the common mission of upholding creative, unique goa; goa that is true to the old ways yet forever fresh and modern, and is excited to represent the Cronomi sound at festivals around the United States and beyond.

Pandanāndi is available to play modern or retro goa trance, classic trance, and forest psytrance. He loves to play extended journey sets, especially at night, and helps out with SpaceCamp Psyfari and Eldritch Crew parties in the United States.

Psara

Djane Psara (Sara Constança) started mixing in 1987 to the sound of Synthpop at a known nightclub on the coast of Estoril. She then went to search within experimental electroacoustic music, jazz and ethnical roots. After having become increasingly interested in trance during 95, she found herself diving deep into the Psychedelic Trance scene in late 96 and went on DJing Goa Trance in outdoor parties throughout 97 and beyond.

In the end of 98 Sara expanded her interests into other projects and began developing her own percussion playing. After a few scattered DJing performances along the years due to a kind of cryogenic sleep, 2012 is the year that saw a comeback to the trance scene and Psara is now again fully charged for psychedelic music with Old School and New Goa Trance as her main interest. A dancer on the decks riding psychedelic storylines, Psara is tuned in creating the best possible vibe on the dance floor so that she can share the mystic flight to hyperspace.

Psara is a seasoned and versatile energetic performer with a keen sense for reading the dance floor. Her personal preference is the sunrise but she enjoys playing at any hour and has an unconditional respect for Goa Trance 'Samay Raga' (time theory). Resident at the ZNA Gathering Festival she was deeply honoured in the end of 2013 by becoming the ManMadeMan Official DJ.

RoyRoy

Hola everyone!

My name is Roy. I live in the centre of Israel and I am the owner of party collective "Jungle Family", "Fractal In The Desert" and "Electro Monkeys".

I will never for years ago in 2010 when I went out to my first trance party. As I remember it, I was always looking at the dj's: what they do, how they move and everything. From that moment I knew this is what I wanted: play Goa trance as a DJ.

From 2011 I started to collect music mostly 'old-school' goa trance and after my trip to India in 2012 I was starting to make underground parties in Israel and starting to play in Israel at Goa trance parties with my friend. Back then we were called "Timon & Pumbaa". We have played only old school Goa trance until 2015.

In 2015 starting to play alone as "RoyRoy": older Goa and 'new school' too, cause I just love the new style!

Psytek

Hello everyone! I'm Tom / dj Psytek from Belgium. Ever since I could hold a cd in my hands I've been listening to electronic dance music and it lasted until 2005 until I discovered my true favorite genre: Goatrance! Ever since the Goa parties in Belgium have been my second home.

I started dj'ing in 2006 on small parties from time to time and have recently joined Cronomi Records and Chronicle of Mystery Records, while playing on more and more parties around Belgium. I prefer to play deep and darkish Oldskool Goatrance, early Psytrance and Forest Trance. Mostly all blended together in one set Or you can book me for a one style set too!

Twinpa

Ralf Hornik discovered Goa Trance in 1998 and was absolutely impressed by this variation, complexity and powerful sound.

From this time he started collecting this music which was changing its style nearly from year to year. Later Goa Trance became Psy Trance and the original Goa Trance began to slide into obscurity. Sound was more and more generic, lots of new labels spread out of the earth and Twinpa decided to create his own DJ sets with the well known old analogue sound and variation.

From 2008 he spotted new Labels like "Cronomi Records," "Underground Alien Factory," and "Suntrip Records" that released the same sound of the old Goa Trance now called "Oldschool Goa Trance" and "Newschool Goa Trance". So he started to create and play sets with that sound under the name "Goa Radio (Germany)". Until now he specialized to play sets using oldschool and newschool Goa Trance while his sound is always considered as massive, trippy and dark.

In 2012, when his twins were born, he called himself Twinpa.

Satchay

Satchay is Ofir Fogel from Israel. For six years I'm feeling very dedicated to experience and committed to learn more about electronic music, especially (psychedelic) Goa Trance nowadays. When I was very young, I already loved club and electronic music; playing it and making remixes of tracks. Because I wanted to share the beauty of the music I discovered.

"Satchay" - my dj name - means "True" in Hindi. I have chosen this name because I'm trying to be as authentic towards the music as I can. In my dj sets my goal is to make people feel good and happy. In my early dj career I first played and mixed ambient and chill music; bringing people together, closer to nature. And now I play Goa Trance sets, I hope bringing people together to dance with on my own unique way of creating a story between and with the tracks I choose to play. From the summer of 2016 I keep on continuing to promote good music as part of Cronomi Records (Belgium), not only as Goa DJ but also as their booking agent.

DJ IronSun

Hearing psytrance for the first time at the end of 2007, I immediately knew this was the music I had been waiting for. Little did I know the rabbit hole would go this deep. Venturing through the entire psychedelic trance umbrella in the following years my love for the genre only grew and so did the inevitable collector’s fever. In 2010 during a year of study abroad in Japan I finally got the chance to start spinning psytrance, with a main focus on the classical Goa sound.

Convinced that Trance should be experienced as a journey through the dimensions of sound, I developed a wide ranging taste in subgenres, as I am sure there is a time and place for almost all of them. I am fascinated by the juxtaposition between dark & light this music is so good at establishing and will always try to seek and play with the inherent catharsis in my sets.

Clone604

The words, “you’ll hate that, it’s dirty hippy music.” will always be etched into my brain as the turning point in my life at the age of 16. It was the response from the shopkeeper at a local record store when I asked about a small vinyl section labeled “Goa” one day in 1995.

I was the first dedicated Goa DJ in my hometown. We didn’t have Goa parties back then—not until 1998. I was not legal drinking age and used a fake ID to get into clubs just to play! In October 1998 a friend who was involved with the Vancouver Goa scene returned home to Ottawa and brought me to my frist Goa party named “Miranda” in Montreal, headlined by Matt Boom! from Holland. I had my breakthrough with this music at that event, and met Matt who would become my mentor—changing my life forever.

I have been DJing for 25 years with a focus on Goa/Psytrance for the last 24 of them, I steered towards Full-On from 2002 to 2011, but have a renewed appreciation for the spirit of Goa which has been revived in recent years as a global movement.

I weave sonic stories using a combination of classic and contemporary Goa Trance and play according to the time slot to support the correct musical flow for a true and spiritual psychedelic experience. Gold Time is my favourite time to play, when the coming sunrise portends an uplifting shift to bring the dancefloor out of darkness.

Expect to hear some unreleased gems, lovingly maintained for dancefloor experiences.
