On the road again<br />
Useful equipment, gimmicks and knowledge<br />
for the modern Trance nomad<br />
Travelling is at least as characteristic<br />
for Psy Trance as fluorescent<br />
paintings and hypnotic<br />
electronic music. In fact there<br />
are few if any other scenes<br />
where people frequently travel<br />
thousands of miles just to meet<br />
their international fellows for<br />
The Classic<br />
For the classic Indian teepee or<br />
its North-European equivalent,<br />
the Sami kata, a simple coneshaped<br />
frame of wooden poles<br />
was covered with animal hides,<br />
with an opening at the top to let<br />
out smoke. Swedish manufacturer<br />
Tentipi combines the idea<br />
of these popular tents with upto-date<br />
technological standards.<br />
In this way, the luxuries of space<br />
and standing height are guaranteed<br />
and there is the unique possibility<br />
to have a stove or even<br />
an open fire in the middle of<br />
the tent. While ancient teepees<br />
required a lot of work to be set<br />
up and were very heavy, many<br />
of the new versions can be set up<br />
within few minutes and weight<br />
only few kilos while still providing<br />
space for many persons.<br />
an open air. Now, during summer,<br />
many Trance freaks live<br />
a real nomadic lifestyle, hopping<br />
from one festival acre to<br />
the next. And quite afew have<br />
already plans for a winter trip<br />
to Asia, for instance. “Life is a<br />
book and those who do not tra-<br />
The Easy One<br />
It was around 2005 when strange,<br />
saucer-shaped objects flew over<br />
more and more festivals. But<br />
they could only be watched for 2<br />
seconds- before they transformed<br />
into tents. Outdoor manufacturer<br />
Quechua is the brand that became<br />
famous for its pop-up tent system,<br />
providing tents that come in one<br />
piece and build up themselves in<br />
no time. Since then the technology<br />
has been developed further and<br />
2011 witnesses a new version of the<br />
popular instant-tent. The “2Seconds<br />
Easy” comes with a comfortable<br />
and safe 2-wall construction and is<br />
not only super easy to build-up but<br />
also super easy to be folded again.<br />
In fact, one only needs to pull a<br />
cord- that’s it! And... it’s even available<br />
in quite the psychedelic variety<br />
of colours…<br />
vel read only one page”, as the<br />
saying goes! But it’s not always<br />
easy reading… In this unusual<br />
lead article we want to share<br />
with you some ideas, inspirations<br />
and tips how to arrange<br />
your modern nomadic adventures<br />
as convenient as possible.<br />
The Lightweight<br />
If you are travelling only<br />
with your backpack, using<br />
public transport and want<br />
to keep the stuff you<br />
have to carry around as<br />
minimal as possible but<br />
without missing a warm<br />
and dry place to stay at,<br />
this might be your tent of<br />
choice:<br />
Weighing only a little<br />
more than two packages<br />
of milk, fitting into a backpack,<br />
set up within no<br />
time and always try and<br />
cosy thanks to a 2-wallconstruction.<br />
An excellent solution for<br />
the soloist or two who like<br />
each other, exploring territories<br />
where it may be raining<br />
or cold.

How to push-start a car<br />
Too much campsite rave?<br />
Car battery dead? No worries- getting<br />
your car push-started is really<br />
easy! At least if it runs on petrol.<br />
This method will work with a<br />
diesel as well, but you will have to<br />
try harder. Please never push-start<br />
an automatic car!<br />
The Futurist<br />
Mobile communication<br />
company Orange presents<br />
a design study for the tent<br />
of the future.<br />
Powered by flexible,<br />
fabric-like solar panels,<br />
this tent starts glowing<br />
in a distinctive way<br />
when triggered via mobile<br />
phone at night- a great<br />
help to identify your tent<br />
from a distance and a<br />
great way to make the<br />
other campers believe<br />
in another, secret dance<br />
floor…<br />
Unbelievably incorporated<br />
into this technologically<br />
advanced camping accessory,<br />
is a self set-up Wifi<br />
internet connection point,<br />
brilliant!<br />
1) Find some persons for pushing<br />
2) Get behind the wheel and turn the key to ignition mode<br />
3) Engage second gear but keep the clutch pushed down<br />
4) Start shouting: “Push, push, push!”<br />
5) Once the car gained some speed, slowly release the clutch<br />
6) There should be a strong jerk<br />
7) Push down the clutch again while carefully&slowly stepping<br />
on the gas at the same time<br />
8) If its not working immediately, return to 4)<br />
9) If its still not working, give the car a short rest and try again<br />
10) Keep motor running and keep switched off radio, air con etc.<br />
for an hour.<br />
The Guerrilla<br />
This rudimentary but efficient way<br />
of camping was already recommended<br />
by Che Guevara, one of<br />
the protagonists of the socialist<br />
guerrilla revolution on Cuba. All it<br />
needs is a hammock, a mosquito<br />
net, a small plastic tarp and some<br />
ropes. Put up the hammock between<br />
two trees and another rope<br />
one metre above it, which you<br />
can use for the net to keep away<br />
insects and a tarp to keep you dry<br />
from rain. Unfortunately, at most<br />
festivals in Europe there are few<br />
if any trees around in the camping<br />
area - be sure to check the<br />
location or ask friends who have<br />
already been there when possible<br />
before heading down there.<br />
The Discounter<br />
Don’t worry if your budget is limited!<br />
All the big European discounters,<br />
like Aldi or Lidl for instance,<br />
offer camping equipment at least<br />
once a summer season. Usually<br />
there will be tents for 20 Euro or<br />
even less and their quality is really<br />
acceptable.<br />

Gadgets<br />
MusucBag<br />
You really love the cosy<br />
warmth of your sleeping bag<br />
during the nights? Well, take<br />
it with you then! The Musuc-<br />
Bag transforms all the benefits<br />
of a sleeping bag into a sleeping<br />
suit. In this way you can<br />
easily go for another round<br />
and crash in a comfortable and<br />
well-tempered way wherever<br />
you want.<br />
www.musucbag.com<br />
SofaBox<br />
Out of the box chill out and<br />
lounging, that is the basic idea<br />
of the SofaBox. Put into a both<br />
solid and good looking flightcase,<br />
this piece of furniture<br />
offers an original possibility<br />
to hang around outdoors in a<br />
very decent way.<br />

Etón Scorpion<br />
Nominated for the smartest<br />
festival gear in the category<br />
electronics: The Etón Scorpion.<br />
This fascinating piece of<br />
technology provides you with<br />
light, electric energy, weather<br />
information, music and even<br />
a bottle opener. The Scorpion<br />
can be charged via its solar<br />
panel, its dynamo hand-crank<br />
or via DC adapter. The energy<br />
generated in these ways can<br />
be used for the integrated<br />
flashlight, the cell phone charger<br />
via USB or the radio receiver<br />
which is also specialized<br />
on weather information bands<br />
and finally you can even connect<br />
your iPod and use it as a<br />
speaker! The scorpion is splash<br />
proofed and a very robust<br />
fellow.<br />

know how<br />
How to chill drinks<br />
Hot festivals with the sun burning<br />
down are great. Cold<br />
drinks are great to. The combination<br />
of the two of them<br />
is perfect- but can become<br />
rare… still, there are some<br />
easy tricks!<br />
The pit method<br />
Ok, this is really well-known.<br />
Dig a hole, preferably even<br />
in the shade, and burry your<br />
drinks at sunrise. Yes, exactly<br />
at the moment of sunrise. No<br />
mystical reason, only this is<br />
the coldest moment of the day.<br />
<strong>Your</strong> underground drinks will<br />
keep their temperature longer.<br />
The trucker method<br />
Truck drivers wrap wet towels<br />
around their drinks and hang<br />
them on their rear mirrors in<br />
linen bags. The cooling effect<br />
is caused by the heat of vaporization,<br />
a physical phenomena<br />
you can take advantage<br />
of as well, if it is windy at<br />
your festival. Just warp a wet<br />
piece of cloth around the 40<br />
degree Jaegermeister bottle<br />
from your car and put it in the<br />
wind for half an hour. It won’t<br />
be a huge effect but still a noticeable<br />
one!

Travelling<br />
Couch Surfing<br />
I want to fly away...<br />
The idea of Couch Surfing is<br />
...but I don‘t have much money<br />
pretty simple: Participate in cre- to do so! These search engines<br />
ating a better world, one couch will help, even when looking<br />
at a time. You offer your couch for cheap accommodations<br />
or guest bed to travellers via<br />
and rental cars.<br />
a website. Or, when travelling www.swoodoo.com<br />
yourself, you have the possibi- www.kayak.com<br />
lity to look for a couch to crash www.skyscanner.com<br />
for one night or even more. www.cheaptickets.com<br />
There are no special obliga- www.opodo.de<br />
tions, you don’t have to offer a<br />
couch yourself to ask for one.<br />
In fact Couch Surfing is more<br />
than a cheap way to travel. It<br />
offers the possibility to make<br />
acquaintance with people world<br />
wide and to get an impression<br />
of their everyday life. Often<br />
even friendships evolve from<br />
this way of travelling. Still caution<br />
is advised: Be aware that<br />
there might be thefts around.<br />
Also, it’s a good idea to have<br />
a short phone call with the<br />
host / the guest to get a personal<br />
impression. The gut feeling<br />
will tell you if this constellation<br />
might work out or not.<br />

Taxi!<br />
Calling 22 456 from a mobile<br />
in Germany will connect you<br />
with the nearest taxi central-<br />
no matter where you are! It<br />
costs 0,69 Euro per minute but<br />
might be really worth it in certain<br />
situations.<br />
Aus deutschen Mobilfunknetzen<br />
erreicht man unter der 22<br />
456 die nächstgelegene Taxizentrale<br />
- egal wo man gerade<br />
ist! Das kostet zwar 0,69 Euro<br />
die Minute, ist aber ziemlich<br />
praktisch.<br />

Psytrance News<br />
served by Regan (Nano Records)<br />
Adam<br />
Thai based producer and part of the<br />
famed Half Moon parties Tripical, has just<br />
dropped a wonderful EP on All Records.<br />
The „Retreat“ Ep features two great<br />
tracks both groovy as a Koh Phangan<br />
sunset and spicy as a good Tom Yum. Tripical<br />
has found a nice balance between<br />
Psy with a Prog feel. Quality production<br />
with a sound to listen out for.<br />
Vagalume Records really is headed by<br />
of some of my favorite people on the<br />
planet and they do Brazil proud with their<br />
great vibes.<br />
Swarup‘s Brain (one of the head honchos<br />
at the amazing Universo Parallello<br />
and one of Brazil’s original Psy DJ‘s) has<br />
just dropped a 5 track EP ON Vagalume<br />
which includes three originals, a remix<br />
from Brazilian master groover Burn in<br />
Noise and a collaboration with stompy<br />
electro-edged Logica (Swarups own sons)<br />
makes for a very strong release, that<br />
should be in your bag or hard-drive.<br />
Spun Records jumps back on the block<br />
with a compilation from Brian Sentient.<br />
Featuring a few of the classic Spun<br />
acts and a good helping of some of the<br />
hottest acts of the moment. GMS vs<br />
Absolum, Sonic Species, Chromatone,<br />
Tristan, Earthling vs Mad Max, Broken<br />
Toy, Headroom, Poli vs Brian Sentient,<br />
and a GMS remix of GMS vs Astrix<br />
all weigh in with some big blasting tunes,<br />
are sure to rock us crazy for the weeks to<br />
come! Nice to see Spun doing the business<br />
once more, and we can expect much<br />
more blasting creations from them in the<br />
future once again.<br />
Hommega have started pushing hard on<br />
the digital frontier with monthly podcasts<br />
coming from Astrix, and EPs lining up.<br />
Domestic and Sub 6 both have EPs out.<br />
Domestic showing once again why he is<br />
so respected amongst the producer fraternity<br />
& loved by the dancefloor, while<br />
Sub 6 show off some mammoth glistening<br />
tunes, that definitely have an air of<br />
showmanship to them. Sub 6‘s ‚Aint No<br />
Disco‘ Ep features collabs with GMS, Animalis<br />
and a remix together with Freedom<br />
Fighter of Italian prog star Liquid Soul.<br />
‚The Earthlings Ep‘ from Free Spirit<br />
Records features tracks from Solar Spectrum<br />
and Omsphere (and has nothing<br />
to do with ‚Earthling/Celli‘ the artist).<br />
Jay Om at Free Spirit has been pioneering<br />
his sound and that of his artists<br />
for a good while, and steadily their<br />
sound has been gaining more defined<br />
character & support. Good vibes always<br />
carry through and these guys, are bursting<br />
with them!<br />
...Have I mentioned Antu yet ? This label<br />
really is coming up with some interesting<br />
stuff, which has definitely been<br />
needed with so much copy-cat production<br />
& lame miss-fired attempts at hitmaking<br />
coming from many corners of<br />
Psy. They have a new Ep out ‚Love is<br />
All‘, which I have not checked out yet, so<br />
maybe let me know your thoughts about<br />
it, (or anything else for that matter).<br />
Keep it up Antu!<br />
Having gained recognition & a major fan<br />
base by playing at some of South Africa‘s<br />
best and most loved trance parties in<br />
the past few years, Static Flow has just<br />
released his first EP on Nano Records<br />
‚Subconscious Safari‘. It has been amazing<br />
to see it sky rocket to the top of the<br />
digi-charts, no mean feat for such a new<br />
name to the roster. Looking forward to<br />
some wonderful beats from this guy, as<br />
he strengthens his already excellent production<br />
and songwriting skills.<br />
Please email me links to new releases,<br />
press releases and general Psy Trance<br />
news to report about, and doesn‘t need<br />
to be just released based either. See you<br />
in UK and Europe this summer ;)<br />

Ace Ventura & Rocky<br />
Israeli surfer wonder-boy Rocky is finally<br />
ready with his second album. The album<br />
is called ”Keyboard Wipeout” and is<br />
filled with 9 brand new tracks including<br />
a collaboration with Ace Ventura,<br />
and one with rising stars Sphera. He has<br />
also made a pumping remix of the classic<br />
track ”Other Side” by Son Kite.<br />

him, has some new bombs coming out<br />

”Breather” from his more groovy alter<br />
ego Dominic Thomas will be out on<br />
Echoes Records.<br />
Continuing on the Swedish wave here<br />
I would like to mention that act Solid<br />
Snake just released their second full<br />
length album Factories & Green Fields<br />
on Tribal Vision records. The act consists<br />
of Omar Chelly and Anders Rosengren<br />
from Malmoe, Sweden. If you recognize<br />
Omars name you may know he<br />
was until recently one half of the legendary<br />
Swedish project Tegma, one of the<br />
leading acts on the Scandinavian progressive<br />
trance scene.<br />
All you guys that has been in the progressive<br />
scene for quite some years (or<br />
I feel very old) might not have forgotten<br />
the classic track Schaukelstuhl by<br />
Shiva Chandra. The track has now been<br />
remixed in to 3 brand new remixes. One<br />
bt Shiva Chandra himself, the second by<br />
Shiva Chandra & Dj Magical the last<br />
one by groovy techno duo Fusi & Johnson.<br />
The whole package will be released<br />
on Spintwist records.<br />
I have mentioned it briefly in an earlier<br />
issue of <strong>Mushroom</strong>, but now its finally<br />
here. The swashbuckling, grogdrinking<br />
scurvey pirates Ace Ventura and Captain<br />
Hook is now out with the release<br />
“The Jolly Roger”<br />

NOK, Rocky and<br />

and Kino Oko; Horns & Hoofs are<br />
presenting two brand new EPs. First up<br />
is Max Pollyul with Mosquito EP followed<br />
by a new release from veterans<br />
Fuzzion called ZZ Pop EP Horns &<br />
Hoofs is run by Alex „Boshke“ Tolstey<br />
and Alic. Most of the artwork for the<br />
releases is made by Inga Burina, who<br />
really makes minblowing work.<br />
Danish artist Phaxe just came out with<br />
a groovy EP on northern german label<br />
Blue Tunes which includes a remix hed id<br />
of Swedish upcoming artist Vice. Besides<br />
this he has at least 2 upcoming releases<br />
on Iboga which includes the track ”Merlin”<br />
(co-written together with Behind Blue<br />
Eyes) which is featured on a brand new<br />
compilation by Emok and a new EP called<br />
”Train Boogie”.<br />
And last but not least,<br />
a bit of selfpromotion.<br />
Since last year I have<br />
been working on a brand<br />
new compilation for my<br />
new homelabel Echoes<br />
Records. It contains<br />
9 brand new tracks from<br />

Pearls & Pixies Trilogy<br />
Parvati Records fulfills the strict release<br />
schedule kept for years with the third<br />
part of the Pearls & Pixies series, making<br />
it to a Trilogy – completed in corporation<br />
with Japanese label Phreex Network.<br />
Giuseppe and Ken were responsible<br />
for the five tracks of each label rooster<br />
that will spangle the line up on the<br />
upcoming compilation, with names on it<br />
not released before on both. Claw from<br />
Cyprus as well as Xabbu from Germany<br />
can be found on it. They were no newcomers,<br />
however never yet had found<br />
place on Parvati or Phreex before. Nolm<br />
or Quip Tone Beatz, two participations<br />
from the Phreex Network rooster also<br />
placed tracks for the first time in the list.<br />
Release date will be the Cosmo Festival<br />
in UK, where it can be purchased for the<br />
first time worldwide before you can order<br />
on the labels webpages.<br />
Forest and Pain Tales<br />
Chronicle of Mystery Records is proud to<br />
present the second compilation inspired<br />
by the freaks of the forest psychedelic history.<br />
Labelheads Hana Cheljo (Nirmanakayas)<br />
and Darko Petreski (Schoiroideairis)<br />
from Macedonia, whose goals<br />
are to present the insane creative minds,<br />
that are not highly accepted by the global<br />
audience, but who are recognizable with<br />
their deep psychedelic forest sound –<br />
that’s what it is about, the music! The first<br />
compilation “The Pain of the Forgotten<br />
Forest”, from last year was divining<br />
what to expect and so is the recent output<br />
called “The Oldest Story”, promising<br />
a very well put together ride. Very wellknown<br />
artists like Battle of the Future<br />
Buddhas, Ka-sol, Bloomen, Makadam<br />
or the Trashlords are long time play-<br />
ing in the circuit and placed inbetween<br />
a few newcomers, spinning this old tale<br />
together. Something to thrill!<br />
Drury Nevil’s comeback<br />
After a long break of making music for<br />
personal reasons, the world of psychedelic<br />
music luckily has him back. Denis,<br />
born close to the ancient Greek Temple<br />
of Apollo, the god of music and beauty,<br />
(his inspiration drawn from the artist<br />
known as Drury Nevil for the darker<br />
part, as well as Safi Dafi for lighter stuff),<br />
found his way back to create more psychedelic<br />
treasures. He will be releasing<br />
tracks with both projects again as well<br />
as appearing on the one or another festivals.<br />
This is proper news and welcome<br />
back old friend!<br />

Some of the leading artists for<br />
the real psychedelics to be found on it as<br />
Captain Kirk, Fuzulu, Kerlivin or Full<br />
Face and making this release worth getting<br />

Mind Expansion Rec. – Enichkin<br />
Album<br />
The fourth in succession album by<br />
Sergey Nazarenko also known<br />
as Enichkin, sound engineer from<br />
Russia, is called „Krakoziabry“.<br />
„Krakoziabry is often caused when<br />
layered intelligence forming energy<br />
is moved to a system with a different<br />
default encoding. Different<br />
encoding is a fundamental trick,<br />
which is used to confuse the fact<br />
that we are ONE.“ This album provides<br />
a very specific complex patterns of tribal<br />
elements and cutting edge sound design.<br />

Bluetech just released a new surprise<br />
album named Rainforest Reverberation.<br />
100% of the proceeds from all music<br />
sales go to end deforestation, species loss,<br />
and cultural upheaval in the Amazon. The<br />
album will be released digitally only. By<br />
purchasing the album you are engaging in<br />
one of the most effective ways to combat<br />
global warming and support social justice<br />
for indigenous caretakers of these lands,<br />
as well as entering into a 70 minute continuous<br />
audio journey; Evan writes. Furthermore,<br />
your contribution marks the<br />
beginning of a journey, which will eventually<br />
result in a historic, multi-cultural collaboration,<br />
involving Bluetech and indigenous<br />
Amazonian musicians from a network<br />
of small villages in Ecuador. You can<br />
purchase the album here:<br />
http://criticalbeats.bandcamp.com<br />
visit www.amazonvoice.org to learn<br />
more about where the Rainforest Reverberation<br />
contributions are utilised.<br />
Another surprise release that pretty much<br />
went under the radar is the new Entheogenic<br />
album- Gaia Sophia. It was released<br />
last month via the band bandcamp page<br />
(http://entheogenic-usr.bandcamp.<br />
com). It contains 5 tracks including the<br />
opening 27.5 minutes long opener, “Love<br />
Letters to the Soul”. The duo has split<br />
ways and Entheogenic is just Piers Oak-<br />
Rhind these days. The music on this one<br />
seems to be more on part with the direction<br />
they took in their first two albums.<br />
A new album for Master Margherita<br />
released on Italian based label Blue<br />
Hour Sounds. With The Marginal Rules,<br />
Moreno continues his work starting with<br />
his last album on Peak Records, “Hippies<br />
with Gadgets”, creating evanescent atmospheres<br />
that carry us on a musical journey<br />
around the world. The album features<br />
a fluid collaboration with musicians from<br />
all over the world and Blue Hour Sounds<br />
promise that soul music is the source<br />
behind the ingenious mixture of the elements:<br />
percussion, guitars, birds, violins &<br />
the chords of the bass guitar.<br />
Liquid Stranger released a new album-<br />
The Arcane Terrain on May 31st in Interchill<br />
Records. Intercrhill promise that<br />
The Arcane Terrain obliterates the<br />
boundaries separating dubstep, grime,<br />
dub, breaks, hip hop and outernational<br />
crunkadelica. The album picks up the<br />
thread from Stranger’s recent releases<br />
on Interchill - The Intergalactic Slapstick<br />
and The Steel Trap EP – and continues<br />
down the meandering path<br />
of bass laden revelry. The album<br />
will be followed by a second Liquid<br />
Stranger release in September,<br />
“The Renegade Crusade”, that aims<br />
at DJ’s and lovers of bass music<br />
with stripped down mixes, instrumentals<br />
and significantly more<br />
dirt and grime than this one. Liquid<br />
Stranger embarks on the Renegade<br />
Crusade Tour this summer in<br />
support of the new albums.<br />
Altar Records continue to supply us with<br />
deep chilled music from Russia, with a<br />
debut album from TaFF- Moon Princess.<br />
TaFF is Sergey Bondarenko, who<br />
is known for accompanying Chronos live<br />
on stage with his skilled flute-work on a<br />
variety of different types of flute. Together<br />
Chronos, TaFF have released a mini-<br />
CD titled “When the Day Turns to Night”,<br />
which was released in the summer of 2010<br />
on Altar Records.<br />
Moon Princess is based on an ancient<br />
Chinese tale that has been crafted into a<br />
musical story with care and patience. This<br />
album has been three years in the making<br />
and Altar promise a a superb organic chillout<br />
album with a great character.<br />

System 7<br />
Providing the conscious link between<br />
the Techno and House explosion of<br />
the late 80s and it’s European psychedelic<br />
rock antecedents of the 70s,<br />
System 7 had a strong influence<br />
on the birth of psychedelic Electronic<br />
Dance Music and it’s evolution<br />
up till today. Being founded in<br />
1989, the project began as a collective<br />
of visionary musicians, also featuring<br />
The Orb’s Alex Paterson and<br />
Youth. Working consistently progressive,<br />
carefully trying and testing new<br />
influences and technologies, System<br />
7’s central producers -guitarist Steve<br />
Hillage and keyboardist Miquette<br />
Giraudy- have forged a unique and<br />
up-to-date identity on the Dance<br />
Music genre map, in a space where<br />
Techno, Progressive and Trance<br />
meet– with a healthy side-element<br />
of Ambient.<br />
Two main characteristics in the sound<br />
of System 7 are complex sound synthesis<br />
experiments and a highly specialized<br />
techno guitar. The work of the project<br />
has always been influenced by collaborations<br />
with other musicians, including<br />
Techno luminaries like Derrick May, Carl<br />
Craig, Laurent Garnier and Richie Hawtin,<br />
and more recently Progressive Trance figures<br />
like Liquid Soul. Considering the age<br />
of the project with the first album being<br />
released in 1991, it’s no big news that the<br />
number of their releases is quite extensive:<br />
System 7 have sold over 250.000<br />
albums and 60.000 singles in their career.<br />
Now they just released another, brand<br />
new album on their own label A-Wave:<br />
UP hit the streets on May 30th 2011.<br />
Inspired by time spent in Berlin, UP lowers<br />
the tempo a bit and tips the balance<br />
in a more Techno and Tech House direction.<br />
But this one is not just another Nu<br />
School production! We had the pleasure<br />
to pre-listen to this new work and it<br />
clearly bears the very trancey and deep<br />
character of System 7. In some way, it is<br />
even reminiscent of earlier System 7 classics<br />
like the 777 album, but with a banging<br />
up-to-date sound. UP features collaborations<br />
with Acid House pioneer A Guy<br />
Called Gerald, and System 7’s own remix<br />
of Josh Wink’s Dolphin Smack as well<br />
as collaborations with Japanese artists<br />
Yuji Katsui (electric violin) and Funky<br />
Gong Minoru.<br />

HOT RELEASE:<br />
System 7 – UP<br />
With their new album UP, the duo<br />
have delivered a consistently uptempo<br />
but never one-dimensional set<br />
of tracks, layered with the hypnotic<br />
sounds, fluid melodicism and Steve<br />
Hillage’s trademark dreamy guitars.<br />
Employing slightly slower funky<br />
techno grooves, and pulsating with an<br />
ultra modern production, UP showcases<br />
the uniquely psychedelic System<br />
7 sound and a welcome feeling of<br />
positivity.<br />

Alexander Dorkian has been<br />
around with his Project NOK<br />
for many years, playing live at<br />
countless parties and releasing<br />
numerous tracks. Among them<br />
quite some summer hits, like “In<br />
Heaven With You” and “Wave<br />
Out”. Now he finally presents his<br />
debut album, New Order. Like<br />
a distillation product of Alex’<br />
12-year studio experience, this<br />
work represents an innovative<br />
fusion of his different styles and<br />
musical skills.<br />
On the one hand, New Order<br />
includes deep, rolling productions<br />
and complex melody compositions.<br />
Tracks like Breaking Point or New<br />
World Order transform the power<br />
and rich atmosphere of Full On into<br />
sleek Progressive grooves. On the<br />
other hand, there are also crunchy<br />
and stomping productions, drawing<br />
upon the energy of inspiring rhythms<br />
and bouncy bass lines. In this versatile<br />
and Progressive manner, the<br />
album fits perfectly into the catalogue<br />
of Blue Tunes Records. “After<br />
working with many labels, I am really<br />
happy to work exclusively with these<br />
guys now”, the man from Hamburg<br />
says. “It’s very professional but at<br />
the same time relaxed and familiar”.<br />
In June a remix for Ace Ventura and<br />
Captain Hook will released. Beside<br />
other projects with Day.Din, Neelix,<br />
Klopfgeister, Rocky or Ultravoice,<br />
he is currently quite busy with Ritmo<br />
from Israel, which works out surprisingly<br />
well almost exclusively via internet.<br />
During the summer NOK can<br />
not only be heard at several festivals<br />
around Europe, but also frequently<br />
in beautiful Brazil.<br />

Imago Dei<br />
Painting always seems to immortalize a moment in time and space<br />
Travelling always meant a very<br />
important influence for Imago<br />
Dei- Travelling both to the outer<br />
and the inner world. The Oriental<br />
and African cultures had a<br />
strong impact on him and so did<br />
the philosophies of Carl Young<br />
and Joseph Campbell. But his<br />
strongest inspirations come from<br />
the Native American and Taoist<br />
traditional beliefs and practices.<br />
Imago Dei, whose name means<br />
“image of god”, discovered already<br />
at a very young age that painting<br />
is a unique way to illustrate<br />
connections and processes from the<br />
level of the higher self. Developing<br />
through many styles, he first<br />
focused on surrealism and abstract<br />
expressionism. In this phase of<br />
his work, the idea of cymatics, the<br />
visualisation of sounds and other<br />
vibrations, meant an important influence<br />
for him. Further travels and<br />
studies eventually lead him to the<br />
Taoist philosophy and its rich symbolism.<br />
Looking at spiritual symbols<br />
creates a resonance within psychic<br />
archetypes, which will raise the<br />
consciousness. In this respect, his<br />
Mahayana Buddhist influence can<br />
be seen on the cover picture: The DJ<br />
is Avalokiteshvara, the Bodhisattva<br />
of infinite compassion.<br />
Imago Dei, today living in Grass<br />
Valley, California, received a<br />
Bachelor of Science in 1987, a<br />
Bachelor of Arts in Fine Arts in<br />
1990, and completed the Advanced<br />
Studies Program from The Art<br />
Institute of Chicago in 1990 as one<br />
of the institute‘s top ten painters.<br />
Just recently his varied work could<br />
be seen at Health and Harmony Festival<br />
in Santa Rosa. Coming up next<br />
is an exhibition in San Francisco’s<br />
P-kok gallery.<br />
Reisen war immer ein sehr wichtiger<br />
Einfluss für Imago Dei- Reisen in<br />
die äußere und in die innere Welt.<br />
Die orientalische und afrikanische<br />
Kultur haben ihn geprägt, seine<br />
wichtigsten Inspirationen liefern ihm<br />
aber die Vorstellungen und Riten der<br />
amerikanischen Ureinwohner und<br />
des Taoismus.<br />
Malerei besitzt die Eigenschaft,<br />
Zusammenhänge und Vorgänge auf<br />
einer höheren Ebene des Seins zu<br />
symbolisieren, die sich nur schwer mit<br />
Worten wiedergeben lassen. Diese<br />
Tatsache hat Imago Dei, dessen Name<br />
„das Bild Gottes“ bedeutet, schon<br />
in früher Kindheit für sich entdeckt.<br />
In Kombination mit den spirituellen<br />
Symbolen des Buddhismus verstärkt<br />
sich dieser Effekt nochmals. Der DJ auf<br />
dem Titelblatt ist übrigens Avalokiteshvara,<br />
der Bodhisattva des unendlichen<br />
Mitgefühls.<br />

Psy Pix<br />
Simon Hafele from the West Austrian<br />
state of Tyrol is probably one<br />
of most up-and-coming decoration<br />
artists of our scene. The amazing<br />
organic work of the nowadays 26year<br />
old, can be frequently admired<br />
at events in Austria and Switzerland<br />
but also increasingly at festivals and<br />
parties all around Europe.<br />
Hi Simon! How did you get in touch<br />
with painting and how with black<br />
light art?<br />
I always loved painting, I think my first<br />
pictures were inspired by the Asterix<br />
and Obelix comics… When I was 15,<br />
I attended an art college specialized<br />
in carving and finished a training as a<br />
gilder and sign painter. After that I took<br />
up a job to gain some money for a trip<br />
to India and Nepal. It was actually this<br />
journey that brought me to black light<br />
painting. Travelling alone in winter<br />
2005 / 06 and visiting all that places<br />
in Asia meant a huge inspiration for<br />
me. It was also then when I decided<br />
to become self-employed. In 2010 this<br />
dream eventually became true, I am<br />
now an acknowledged artist in Austria<br />
and earn my money painting<br />
Please tell us a little about your<br />
technique!<br />
I use brushes and air brush for my<br />
work. Besides painting on canvas, I also<br />
designed numerous walls in shops,<br />
hotels etc. and also built some<br />
wood constructions. An interesting<br />
technical experience is the fact<br />
that at the moment my right<br />
hand is broken pretty badly. A<br />
ladder collapsed beyond my<br />
feet… So now I am temporarily<br />
working with my left hand and<br />
I have to say there are some really<br />
exciting results! I will publish<br />
them soon on my new homepage,<br />
which is currently being created.<br />
Blue plays an important role in lots<br />
of your paintings. Is there a special<br />
reason for that?<br />
I reckon sometimes I just wish not to<br />
have taken the red pill but the blue<br />
one… No, rather this colour is pretty<br />
important when it comes to the day /<br />
night appearance of my work. Plus for<br />
me, blue exudes freedom, clearness,<br />
harmony and satisfaction.<br />
What was the biggest compliment<br />
you received as an artist?<br />
The biggest compliment for me is when<br />
people feel good when being surrounded<br />
by my decoration, when they open their<br />
minds towards my pictures, when they<br />
take a good look at them. In such moments<br />
they do not only deal with my pictures<br />
but also with me, with my character.<br />
This can become an intense journey to<br />
the inner self, for me as an artist as well<br />
as for the people who look at my work.<br />

Der heute 26-jährige Simon Hafele<br />

Fascination with Fire<br />
Spinning and Juggling<br />
From the moment man created<br />
fire, he has been completely<br />
fascinated with it. Maybe it’s<br />
because fire has a certain soul...<br />
it really has a life of its own.<br />

scene, I first started to notice<br />
some of the juggling community<br />
mostly as the sun came<br />
down. The bright coloured<br />
tools of their trade had turned<br />
into balls of litttle controlled<br />
& methodically spinning fire<br />
before my eyes. I am certain<br />
my heart skipped a beat. Juggling<br />
had never been something I<br />
had considered... but to see this<br />
manipulation of “alive” energy<br />
in such a focused & controlled<br />
way, was something i craved to<br />
understand.<br />
„If you play with fire, you are<br />
likely to get burnt“, as the<br />
old saying goes, the decision<br />
to learn poi unlit first was<br />
almost not a decision - it was<br />
something that really just found<br />
me. It was a little time before I<br />
felt the confidence for fire manipulation,<br />
but each time I feel<br />
this power rushing around me<br />
at my very control, it builds that<br />
confidence&desire that little<br />
bit more.<br />
This is the feeling that I see in<br />
the eyes of those performing<br />
these flows - a focus and understanding<br />
of energy and flow. In<br />
so many varying forms with so<br />
many new tricks and tools being<br />
created and invented every day,<br />
goa & psytrance people often<br />
take on these little forms of play<br />
with an amazingly open landscape<br />
of creativity.<br />
The raw energy of fire is certainly<br />
not something to be taken<br />
Dai Zaobab<br />
www.zaobab.com<br />
lightly. This is something for a<br />
conscious mind who wants to<br />
unlock further boundaries &<br />
doors, who will take the time<br />
needed to learn how to play<br />
safely. The focus and almost<br />
meditative-like states that one<br />
finds in these flows are astronomically<br />
intensified for me personally,<br />
when I relate them to the<br />
frequency of beats and sounds<br />
within music - in particular to<br />
psy trance. Sometimes peo-<br />
ple have commented my poi<br />
play seems as martial art (especially<br />
if I am really in the “zone”<br />
& have closed my eyes). I wondered<br />
if I applied the same skills<br />
of poi to something like nunchucks<br />
if this would be possible.<br />
I think with a few technique<br />
applications, that this is<br />
entirely possible! I have never<br />
considered martial arts before...<br />
but now, I certainly see how a<br />
transfer of skills I learned with<br />
poi might somehow work.<br />
There are never such intense<br />
feelings as the ones I have sharing<br />
this gift with the people in<br />
a music that we all really live<br />
for. In this way we celebrate life<br />
together. The life of the fire, the<br />
life of the people and the life of<br />
everything in around us.<br />
Each time I play, and each time<br />
I join with others playing and<br />
we learn from each other, my<br />
understanding becomes deeper<br />
and more intense. I can see<br />
how fire draws people<br />
towards one another.<br />
It is a common<br />
ground in whic<br />
we want to understand<br />
how to make<br />
such a powerful<br />
energy move<br />
at will in front<br />
of our eyes. It<br />
was difficult<br />
in the beginning for me to<br />
understand that such under-<br />
fire proof clothing by speevers<br />
www.speevers.com
standing of this ferocious<br />
energy actually required<br />
me to be more calm, more<br />
relaxed and therefore more<br />
focused. Almost an opposing<br />
feeling&mental state, to create<br />
the seeminly fierce action that<br />
I want.<br />
The people are drawn to fire as<br />
a bug is to light, but remember<br />
always to have respect. Fire has<br />
potential to cause you harm if<br />
you are not paying attention!<br />
I encourage anyone who<br />
wants to learn, to begin slow &<br />
take things at your own pace.<br />
Choose your favoured tool -<br />
from hoop, poi, staff or any<br />
other equipment that spikes<br />
your interest. Then practise<br />
unlit till you know these moves<br />
with ease&confidence.... like a<br />
second nature. Not long after I<br />
experienced this second nature<br />
feeling myself, I heard someone<br />
remark after a quite intense<br />
fire ‘dance’ of poi, “You’ve been<br />
burned” &he smiled at me. This<br />
is the new meaning; when you<br />
become addicted to the fascination<br />
of the manipulation of pure<br />
energy!<br />

Fire spinning – Play it safe!<br />
(Safety tips from fire artists)<br />
“Give a man a match... he is warm for<br />
a minute. Set him on fire... he is warm<br />
for the rest of his life!” …. some of the<br />
funny quotes that come out really get you<br />
thinking....<br />
All jokes aside... So you’ve just bought your<br />
new fire-juggling equipment. Congratulations<br />
& welcome to the warm community<br />
of fire artists. Be careful not to become the<br />
next burning man! Here are some helpful<br />
tips to ensure you can safely play with fire,<br />
and find your way among the flames!<br />
Equipment Selection<br />
Good quality, reliable product is rule<br />
number 1, and always check it before use. If<br />
a fire ball breaks out of the chain and shoots<br />
into the audience, you‘ll have a rough time<br />
explaining that it is just part of the show.<br />
Almost all the fire heads existing today are<br />
made of Kevlar fabric. Some companies use<br />
other advanced materials. Stay away from<br />
fire heads that are made from cotton and<br />
especially fiberglass heads. These are commonly<br />
sold in Thailand or India and are usually<br />
white in colour.<br />
To avoid injuries and burns choose fire<br />
heads that don‘t have exposed metal<br />
parts and that don‘t have direct contact<br />
with the fire.<br />
Where can I play?<br />
Do not try this at home! Ok that‘s obvious –<br />
fire playing is for outdoors only and sometimes<br />
in big halls, however it‘s not just any<br />
outdoors environment or big place. Make<br />
sure that your environment is clean, free<br />
from obstacles and dry grasses etc. Keep<br />
a decent distance from your fans for their<br />
own safety. A windy evening is definitely<br />
not a good time for fire spinning. Get back<br />
to your tent!<br />
What liquid should I use?<br />
There are many kinds of fuels out there and<br />
they‘re all made to burn. However, fire liq-<br />
uid is not something you want to compromise<br />
with. The standard fuel for fire juggling<br />
is Paraffin, also known as Kerosene or lamp<br />
oil. This oil burns at a relatively low temperature<br />
and barely produces smoke. This fuel<br />
may cost a little more but in addition to your<br />
immediate safety, it will keep you healthier<br />
and make your Kevlar wicks live longer.<br />
Practice, Practice and Practice<br />
Earn the right to light. Get to know your<br />
fire tool. Get skilled with it. Don‘t surprise<br />
yourself with new tricks when the fire is set.<br />
Talking about surprises – remember that a<br />
soaked fire behaves differently to a dry fire.<br />
So here‘s a practical way to practice with<br />
real weight. Dip and stir your fire heads.<br />
Cover them with nylon bags and use good<br />
ribbon covers on top. These ribbon covers<br />
are always important to keep the fire heads<br />
from getting scratched or torn.<br />
Shake it baby<br />
Well, boys you all know how embarrassing it<br />
can be if you‘re in such a rush to the morning<br />
train that you didn‘t have time to shake it<br />
well … When it comes to fire it could be a<br />
little worse than embarrassing. Use a bowl,<br />
bucket or any other liquid container to dip<br />
your fire heads. Once dipping is complete<br />
always stir your fire tool well to get rid of<br />
any extra liquid.<br />
Here‘s an important green and money saving<br />
tip: cut a plastic bottle. Tie a loop of<br />
string to its open side. Put one of the fire<br />
heads inside the bottle. Hold your fire tool<br />
together with string and stir rapidly for at<br />
least 10 seconds. Repeat this action with the<br />
other fire heads. You‘ll be surprised to find<br />
that around 10 % of the liquid is gathered in<br />
the cut bottle and returns back to your dipping<br />
container.<br />
<strong>Your</strong> hair and whatever is underneath<br />
Even if you‘re not a scarecrow, your hair can<br />
catch fire just like dry straw in the summer.<br />
It only takes one wrong move. Fireproof<br />
Hair protection does not cost too much and<br />
will keep the most flammable part of your<br />
body safe. The rest of our body doesn‘t<br />
tend to catch fire easily, except for one little<br />
problem: our clothes. Polyester clothes are<br />
the worst to wear as they stick to the body<br />
when they burn.<br />
Don‘t play on your own<br />
If something goes wrong, your lucky fairy<br />
won‘t be able to help you. Make sure to<br />
have a real live person with you. This person<br />
will help you in case a poi wraps around<br />
you, extinguish you if you set on fire and<br />
call for help if needed. Make sure he is well<br />
equipped and knows how to assist you if<br />
something goes wrong. There are a few ways<br />
of extinguishing fires but one of the most simple<br />
and effective is a wet towel. Always have<br />
one around when playing with fire.<br />
So we scared you a bit perhaps? The truth is<br />
quite the opposite!<br />
Playing safe will not only keep you in one<br />
piece but when wearing the right clothes,<br />
using proper fire equipment and knowing<br />
how to play, you‘ll gain confidence and<br />
experience. Fire is beautiful. Don‘t be afraid<br />
of it. Control the fire and respect it.<br />

Cloths inspired by and made for<br />
a lifestyle that is characterized by<br />
extensive travelling and diverse cultural<br />
input: This is Luna Design.<br />
Danish globetrotter Dea Dysling<br />
met her Israeli soul mate Nir Ben<br />
Yacoov in Australia. Their mutual<br />
trip through Asia eventually<br />
lead the two of them to their<br />
mutual dream: A sweet,<br />
small, family-run cloth<br />
factory in the rice<br />
fields of Java,<br />
Indonesia, that<br />
provided<br />
the perfect opportunity to produce<br />
their very own vision of up-to-date<br />
fashion in a fair-trade way. Luna<br />
combines practical, hardy<br />
clothes with designs that<br />
celebrate the shape<br />
of the human<br />
body. Adding<br />

Naspex Spiritwear<br />
It began in India. When Austrian<br />
Franz spent his first winter season<br />
in Goa from 1990 to 1991, he was<br />
simply blown away by the amazing<br />
atmosphere and the indescribable<br />
vibe of this place. Inspired by these<br />
strong emotions he started painting<br />
T-Shirts, at first more or less as<br />
a hobby. Ten years of psychedelic<br />
influence later saw the birth of Natural<br />
Spirit Experience, a platform to<br />
produce special T-Shirts for beautiful<br />
futuristic people.<br />
The Naspex Spiritwear collection strives<br />
to spread a message of nature<br />
and humanity, to support philosophy<br />
and open-minded visions for love,<br />
freedom & consciousness. Available<br />
for men, women and kids, the<br />
T-Shirt and Longsleeve designs provide<br />
a large variety of rich, colourful<br />
psychedelic printings, abstract ones<br />
as well as traditional motives of spiritual<br />
and esoteric illustrations. Classical<br />
Goa style at its best!<br />

Ajna<br />
Inspired By Nature<br />
Ajna pursues the idea of Organic<br />
Clothing in the probably most consequent<br />
way: It is not only the deeply<br />
harmonic shapes and colours of<br />
Mother Nature that inspire the<br />
design of their clothes. Rather,<br />
also the entire production process<br />
is modelled on the perfectly<br />
balanced natural cycle<br />
that connects everything to<br />
everyone.<br />
Knowing the roots of their<br />
clothes from seed to dye,<br />
became the motto of Ajna,<br />
a motto that shall make sure<br />
whatever covers one’s skin, will<br />
not only look good to the eye, but<br />
also feel good at heart. All the natural<br />
colours, shapes and textures will<br />
do no harm to Earth or to humans,<br />
thanks to organic cotton that is exclusively<br />
grown and crafted without any<br />
toxic chemicals. Designer Tanja Vana<br />
grew up with deep fascination for<br />
nature and managed to transform the<br />
earthy smell and touch of the forest,<br />
the trees and the nature spirits into a<br />
marvellous, one-of-a-kind fashion line,<br />
even for the children.<br />

Shiva Nataraja<br />
a symbol of our scene<br />
All of us have seen Shiva Nataraja<br />
many times. Party decoration,<br />
flyers, quite any kind of artwork-<br />
the portrayal of this dancing<br />
Hindu goddess has a long and rich<br />
tradition in our scene that reaches<br />
back to its roots in India. But in fact<br />
rather few Psy Trance lovers know<br />
about the deep symbolic meaning<br />
of Shiva Nataraja. Of course he is<br />
no real creature, but a metaphor<br />
for life that is as perfect and elegant<br />
as it is easy to understand.<br />
The dancing Shiva is surrounded<br />
by a halo of fire, which represents<br />
nature in the broadest possible sense<br />
of this word, the world of mass and<br />
energy. By dancing his cosmic dance,<br />
Shiva creates both order and disorder<br />
among these basic elements. Imagine<br />
Shiva being the driving force in<br />
our universe, his body reaching billions<br />
of light years and filling the<br />
entire cosmos.<br />
In his upper right hand, Shiva holds<br />
his drum. Using this drum, he creates:<br />
Galaxies, planets, trees, single cells.<br />
In his upper left hand you can see<br />
his fire- which will destroy everything<br />
just mentioned. The tricky point for<br />
us humans is that these actions inevitably<br />
provoke emotions, feelings of<br />
something good or bad going on.<br />
Now remember your best dancing<br />
experience- when you were just in<br />
the moment, just enjoying the movement<br />
of your body, just playing like a<br />
child. That is exactly what Shiva Nata-<br />
raja is doing. He has no glow sticks<br />
in his hands but very powerful tools.<br />
A sweep of his right arm: Creation.<br />
A new baby is born, a lucky encounter,<br />
success and blissfulness. A strike<br />
with his left arm: Destruction. A tragic<br />
accident, cancer, senility, depression.<br />
Keep in mind that Shiva is dancing<br />
just like you in the middle of<br />
the dance floor, without any second<br />
thought, dancing for the sake of dancing.<br />
He is no obliging god- but no<br />
malicious one either.<br />
And it is alright like that. This is exactly<br />
what Shiva wants to tell us by rising<br />
his lower right hand, palm turned outwards.<br />
Don’t be afraid, it’s ok! If you<br />
look at the right foot of the goddess,<br />
you will notice that he is crushing an<br />
ugly little demon. This small creature<br />
named Apasmara is immensely powerful<br />
and represents ignorance and<br />
greedy, possessive egoism. Shiva puts<br />
his foot on it, breaking his back. But<br />
he is not pointing at this foot with his<br />
lower left hand and this is a very crucial<br />
fact. Rather, he points at his left<br />
foot which is already risen for the next<br />
step of his cosmic dance. Exactly this<br />
is the moral of this wonderful metaphor:<br />
Keep on dancing- between<br />
good and bad, between joy and<br />
pain, between sunshine and rain!<br />

THE BEAT reverberates throughout the room<br />
When the first beat of a new track<br />
starts rolling, it kicks off as an almost<br />
inaudibly buzzing sound coming<br />
from the speaker. Gradually what<br />
appeared to be just the humming<br />
noise changes into a more perceptible<br />
ticking in the background,<br />
louder and more intense with every<br />
kick. The clubbers are waiting for<br />
the moment when they can let go<br />
and lose themselves just for that<br />
one night. They take a sip of water<br />
but still keep on waiting. Meantime,<br />
the sound goes one level higher,<br />
like a firing spaceship slowly getting<br />
ready to blast off. As the sound<br />
is getting louder, a shiver of excitement<br />
spreads around the room like<br />
a tsunami. The crowd starts shouting<br />
with joy, cheering and clapping<br />
to the beat. It is obvious that the DJ,<br />
using his magical index finger glued<br />
firmly to the volume controller, has<br />
pushed the bottom slightly up. A bit<br />
more and it all goes slightly louder.<br />
Then out of nowhere a voice of<br />
must-be-from-another-planet species<br />
with a power vocal: “Don’t waste<br />
your time”<br />
Only for a split second, but on the<br />
dancefloor it sounds more like an<br />
eternity, the music freezes completely.<br />
It seems as if the music<br />
had the power to stop the momentum<br />
of time.<br />
And then it comes, rolling, rumbling<br />
through the space, with a blowing<br />
force of 30.000 Watt, like the thunder<br />
sent from the God in heaven, it is like<br />
the moment when for the first time<br />
the wild beast is finally tamed, hitting<br />
simultaneously one tick-tock after<br />
another: The beat!<br />
DER BEAT<br />
Wenn der Beat aussetzt, wenn es<br />
aus den Lautsprechern nur noch<br />
blubbert, raschelt oder zirpt und<br />
sich dann im Hintergrund langsam<br />
ein sirrender Ton aufbaut und lauter<br />
wird und höher und die Tanzenden<br />
warten, sich ausschütteln, einen<br />
Schluck Wasser trinken und immer<br />
noch warten und das Sirren des<br />
Raumschiffs noch eine Stufe höher<br />
schwingt und lauter wird und die<br />
Leute zu jubeln beginnen, gleich ist<br />
es geschafft, der DJ streckt den Zeigefinger<br />
nach oben, ganz weit hinten<br />
setzt ein tiefer Bass ein, das Sirren<br />
geht noch eine Stufe höher,<br />
wird nochmals lauter, die Vocoder-Stimme<br />
eines Aliens verkündet:<br />
„Dont waste your time“, für zwei<br />
Takte, weniger als eine Sekunde und<br />
doch eine Ewigkeit, setzt die gesamte<br />
Musik aus - und dann kommt er, mit<br />
der Urgewalt von 30.000 Watt, Gottvater<br />
persönlich, mit dem alle Musik,<br />
jeder Tanz, jeder Trance anfing, seit<br />
erstmals ein domestizierter Primat<br />
zwei Holzstücke monoton aufeinanderschlug:<br />

Rebirth of the underground<br />
in Hungary<br />
The very first Goa Trance tunes in<br />
Hungary were probably played<br />
by DJ Oleg around ‘92, and by<br />
2000 there was a strong community<br />
meeting at Psy Trance parties<br />
every week. The Hungarian psychedelic<br />
scene might have seen bigger<br />
peaks in its almost 20 years<br />
of history, but it is still a fantastic<br />
and popular scene. Ozora festival<br />
and producers like Para Halu,<br />
Kalumet or Insector make the Hungarian<br />
scene well-known around<br />
the globe.<br />
Progressive seems to be the most<br />
popular style at the parties today,<br />
but there is a fair share of Full On<br />
and Dark Psy fanatics as well. Meeting<br />
them you’ll realize one thing is<br />
common among all of them: They<br />
will offer you Palinka, a liquor from<br />
fruits, and it will be strong. Trance<br />
people here love Palinka just as<br />
much as making friends, if you plan<br />
a visit you can always ask the community<br />
for help on forum.goa.hu.<br />
Hungarian electronic music parties<br />
are suffering from a strict new<br />
law recently, as a consequence of<br />
a tragic accident in January when<br />
three young girls died in an overcrowded<br />
club in Budapest. As a reaction,<br />
the shocked public authorities<br />
now became extremely busy closing<br />
down venues and setting back events<br />
since this occurrence. It is especially<br />
hard for open air parties, although<br />
they’ve always been the heart and<br />
soul of the Hungarian scene. On<br />
the bright side, there are signs of a<br />
rebirth of the real underground and<br />
its nostalgic secret parties, and of<br />
course hard times bring the community<br />
even closer together: No one<br />
wants to miss the few open air gatherings<br />
that are still happening.<br />
As one of the fixed dates of this summer,<br />
Bakony festival is held 15-17th<br />
July at the shores of a beautiful lake<br />
surrounded by the mighty denominator,<br />
the mountain itself. If there<br />
is one thing for sure, it’s that everybody<br />
is drawn to Ozora, held in the<br />
beginning of August. With more than<br />
10 thousand visitors in the valley<br />
every year, Ozora has slowly become<br />
one of biggest meeting points of the<br />
psychedelic world, and of course the<br />
proud Hungarian tribe.<br />
If you are up to make both festivals<br />
you can easily spend the time<br />
inbetween checking out Budapest’s<br />
famous nightlife and bars or - since<br />
there are no relevant distances in<br />
Hungary - you can visit one of the<br />
country’s ten national parks or head<br />
to the biggest lake, Balaton and<br />
have a traditional retro holiday on<br />
the beach. Take your camping gear<br />
with you always, in Hungary you<br />
can legally camp almost anywhere.<br />
Tips and Facts<br />
� Any kind of drugs are strictly illegal<br />
in Hungary, smoking marijuana<br />
in public places can quickly<br />
get you in trouble<br />
� If you travel by train try to look<br />
for „Intercity” whenever you can,<br />
there is a small additional fee<br />
but it’s well worth the speed and<br />
cleanness of the trains.<br />
� Average entrance ticket to a psytrance<br />
party is 8-10 Euros. Interestingly<br />
enough you can find<br />
Techno / House / Breakbeat<br />
events in Budapest for 5 Euros<br />
or free. Beer however is usually<br />
cheaper in Psy Trance parties<br />
(between 1,5 and 3 Euros).<br />

Paradise Valley – The true spirit of Goa!<br />
28.12.2011 – 03.01.2012 • Morocco<br />
Celebrating outdoors in the sun is simply<br />
double the fun! Wouldn’t it be<br />
great to have this summer feeling also<br />
for New Years Eve, instead of partying<br />
in a crowded, musty club? Sounds<br />
like paradise? Well, Paradise Valley is<br />
within reach! Taking place in Morocco,<br />
this festival provides the possibility<br />
to spend the end of the year lightly<br />
dressed in exotic sceneries, listening to<br />
breathtaking music.<br />
In Paradise Valley, there are comfortable<br />
temperatures around 20 – 25 degrees<br />
even in winter. The dance floors are<br />
shaded by palm trees and a waterfall<br />
invites for some refreshing splashing. Perfect<br />
conditions for a revival of the real<br />
spirit of Goa! The three party areas will be<br />
designed by more than 100 artists, who<br />
put their hearts and souls in the creation of<br />
a loving atmosphere and an original music<br />
programme. There will be several workshops<br />
and even a tent where Ayahuasca<br />
sessions are held.<br />
Besides its fascinating culture, Morocco<br />
has the advantage that it is really affordable.<br />
This goes also for the two beach hotels<br />
of the open air: For 20 Euro per night,<br />
they offer the possibility to live right at the<br />
Atlantic, shuttle busses run frequently to<br />
the nearby festival where free camping<br />
is possible. Thought was also given to an<br />
easy arrival: It is possible to book a complete<br />
package for 270 Euro that includes<br />
a flight from Frankfurt, Berlin or Amsterdam,<br />
the transfer to the festival as well<br />
as the entry for the week at the festival<br />
(27.12.-04.01.). A similar offer exists for<br />
arrival from Malaga (Spain) via bus (26.12.-<br />
04.01.). A unique experience that will simply<br />
impress.<br />
An der frischen Luft und mit den<br />
warmen Strahlen der Sonne auf der<br />
Haut feiert es sich einfach doppelt<br />
so gut, wie dieser Tage deutlich zu<br />
spüren ist. Wäre es nicht schön, dieses<br />
sommerliche Gefühl auch Sylvester<br />
zu haben, anstelle in einem muffigen,<br />
überfüllten Club zu feiern? Klingt<br />
paradiesisch? Nun, das Paradise Valley<br />
ist zum greifen nah! In Marokko<br />
gelegen bietet dieses Festival die<br />
Möglichkeit, die Jahresendzeit nur<br />
leicht bekleidet in einer exotischen<br />
Naturkulisse zu verbringen, beschallt<br />
von feinstem Sound.<br />
Im paradiesischen Tal herrschen auch im<br />
Winter angenehme Temperaturen um<br />
die 20–25 Grad. Getanzt wird im Schatten<br />
eines Palmenhains, Erfrischung bietet<br />
ein Wasserfall. Optimale Voraussetzungen<br />
also, um den echten Spirit von Goa<br />
wieder aufleben zu lassen! In insgesamt<br />
3 Bereichen leben über 100 Künstler ihre<br />
Leidenschaft aus, um ein besonders originelles<br />
Musikprogramm und liebevolles<br />
Ambiente zu schaffen. Abgerundet wird<br />
das ganze von verschiedenen Workshops<br />
und sogar einem Zelt, in dem Ayahuasca<br />
Rituale stattfinden.<br />
Neben seiner faszinierenden Kultur bietet<br />
Marokko den Vorteil, insgesamt sehr<br />
günstig zu sein. Das gilt auch für die beiden<br />
Strandhotels des Festivals: Für 20<br />
Euro pro Nacht kann man direkt am<br />
Atlantik wohnen, Shuttles verkehren<br />
regelmäßig zum nahe gelegenen Open<br />
Air, wo frei gecampt werden kann. Auch<br />
in punkto Anreise hat man sich Gedanken<br />
gemacht. So besteht die Möglichkeit,<br />
für 270 Euro ein Komplettpaket zu<br />
buchen, das einen Flug von Frankfurt,<br />
Berlin oder Amsterdam sowie den Transfer<br />
zum und das Ticket fürs Festival beinhaltet<br />
(27.12.-04.01.). Ein ähnliches Angebot<br />
existiert für einen Bustransfer aus<br />
dem spanischen Malaga (26.12.-04.01.).<br />

Universo Paralello<br />
28.12.2011 - 03.01.2012 • Pratigi / Bahia / Brasil<br />
A decade of Universo Paralello<br />
has passed very fast! Undoubtedly<br />
among the most special gatherings<br />
of our scene, this festival has seen<br />
countless artists, a huge amount<br />
of culture in general and last but<br />
not least one of the most beautiful<br />
party crowds in the world. After a<br />
one-year break, Universo Paralello<br />
is back at its magic roots, a place<br />
that is certainly a universe of its<br />
own: Pratigi!<br />
UP is now taking place every 2<br />
years. In the even years, there is<br />
303 Festival- in the odd years Universo<br />
Paralello. Whis is this so?<br />
The idea is to have Universo Paralello<br />
every 2 years. In this way there is simply<br />
more time to prepare the structure.<br />
It is designed to be a great experience<br />
for long-time visitors as well as<br />
for people who come for the first time.<br />
The chapter 303 was very special for<br />
us. We just couldn’t imagine spending<br />
a new year without a party, so 303<br />
Festival was a great opportunity to celebrate<br />
together in a smaller dimension,<br />
but still full of magic.<br />
This year, UP is at the same venue.<br />
Is there a reason?<br />
After we traveled around different<br />
venues, we found that Pratigi is our<br />
best option for this year, there is just<br />
such amazing support from the local<br />
people there. Pratigi is a very special<br />
place and we already have all the<br />
structure we need to have an excellent<br />
festival without any trouble.<br />
There is a tradition in Brazil- people<br />
wear white clothes on New<br />
Year’s Eve…<br />
Yes, we like to welcome the New Year<br />
wearing white clothes, which symbolize<br />
light, peace, harmony- posi-<br />
tive energy for the upcoming year! It’s<br />
great to see that year after year more<br />
and more people join this tradition!<br />
The last UP decoration from SOLA /<br />
Ibiza was absolutely stunning. Will<br />
she decorate the festival again?<br />
SOLA made an incredible work during<br />
all the years she has been working<br />
with us, this year she will come again<br />
to surprise us with her stunning arts!<br />
Also our Portuguese friend Guerra will<br />
help us to create a beautiful scene for<br />
this edition... And our Brazilian crew<br />
is ready to blow your mind with fresh<br />
and unique ideas.<br />
Are there special flights from<br />
Europe for people who want to<br />
come to UP…<br />
Yes, we will have some special flights<br />
for visitors from Europe, for a very<br />
good price, leaving from Madrid, London<br />
and other cities. We’ll have all this<br />
information on our website very soon,<br />
stayed tuned!<br />
Do you have some tips for European<br />
travelers? What to explore in<br />
the Bahia region?<br />
If you are in the Bahia area, don’t miss<br />
magic places like Trancoso, Arraial<br />
de Ajuda and Caraiva in the south of<br />
Bahia, approximately a 30 min flight<br />
from Salvador or 6 hrs by bus from<br />
Pratigi. If you want something different,<br />
we recommend you to visit Chapada<br />
Diamantina, where you will have<br />
an incredible experience of waterfalls,<br />
trees and full connection with nature.<br />
If you don’t want to wander too far,<br />
go to Barra Grande with its beautiful<br />
beaches or Boipebaisland, the nearest<br />
places from Universo Paralello.<br />

Blissful Festival<br />
29.06.–03.07. • Portugal<br />
Imagine the warm summer sun<br />
kissing your face while you are<br />
moving your body rhythmically<br />
in hip-deep waters, listening<br />
to your favourite DJ playing<br />
an uplifting afternoon set on the<br />
shore. Imagine being surrounded<br />
by a green, rolling countryside,<br />
by friends old and new, and lots<br />
of other beautiful people from all<br />
around the world. Imagine taking<br />
a morning yoga class after<br />
a night full of dance and laughter.<br />
Imagine being blissful for 5<br />
days… Now you have an idea of<br />
the basic concept of Blissful Festival.<br />
Situated in the one-of-akind<br />
nature of Portugal, the aim<br />
of this event is to create some of<br />
the perfect summer days. Some<br />
days to remember- not only as a<br />
great party experience but also<br />
as an example how easy and<br />
peaceful life can be. An inspiring<br />
experience to draw upon even<br />
months later.<br />
Beautiful Portugal is not only well<br />
known as a hot spot of the Psy<br />
Trance scene, but also as a real hot<br />
spot during summer. This guarantees<br />
a literally unclouded open<br />
air experience. Still there is no risk<br />
of overheating: A lake will be created<br />
right next to the main dance<br />
floor by damming up a little river<br />
which allows celebrating in or out<br />
of the water! The dance floor itself<br />
will provide enough shadow for a<br />
comfortable party experience during<br />
the day, thanks to a 1764 square<br />
metre roof with a colourful mandala<br />
design by the Tribe of Frogs<br />
and Ganesha Space Garden. During<br />
the night hours, lasers and visual<br />
shows will create a stunning Psyper-space.<br />
A large LED video wall<br />
will do so also- and this one will be<br />
working even in daylight! An eco<br />
team will keep up a clean and<br />
natural vibe. Blissful Festival<br />
presents a distinctly psychedelic<br />
yet varied line up<br />
on the main floor including<br />
some of the currently<br />
most wanted artists of<br />
our scene. For those<br />
looking for some musical<br />
change, the DubTek Temple<br />
offers an inspiring mixture<br />
of Drum & Bass, Dubstep, Tech<br />
Trance, Reggae and Chill Out in<br />
a big Circus Tent, decorated by the<br />
great Austrian artist Psy Pix- who<br />
we interviewed for this mushroom<br />
issue, by the way.<br />
Five days of festival provide ample<br />
time to meet new friends and enjoy<br />
a spectacular party together, and<br />
also time to collect inspirations and<br />
experiences by the dance floor.<br />
For this purpose, the Blissful Festival<br />
crew teamed up with Zeitgeist<br />
Movement and presents another<br />
area for intellectual and spiritual<br />
input. This space shall be kind of an<br />
open laboratory for new social systems.<br />
Ambient music and videos<br />
provide a relaxing environment for<br />
cultural exchange. Yoga classes will<br />
run daily. Last but not least is the<br />
free camping area with many shady<br />
trees and the free caravan and car<br />
park with eco-toilets and showers.<br />
These offer tranquil ambience for<br />
some relaxed and blissful days. A<br />
Magic Family area supports parents<br />
who want to enjoy this festival without<br />
neglecting their children.<br />

Arcadia Festival<br />
26.08. - 28.08. • France<br />
The motto of Arcadia festival is<br />
„organic“. And in fact this open air<br />
event in the middle of France pursues<br />
this approach in a very consequent<br />
way. First of all, the decoration<br />
concept is literally organic,<br />
employing living plants to create<br />
an authentic natural ambiance,<br />
as well as unusual mobiles and<br />
light sculptures. The music programme<br />
does not only include the<br />
organically rolling grooves of topnotch<br />
Psy and Progressive Trance<br />
acts, but also represents the cultural<br />
growth and lively evolution<br />
of contemporary Electronic Dance<br />
Music by carefully including styles<br />
like Electro, Techno, Minimal,<br />
Downbeats, Dubstep or Ambient.<br />
Finally, the infrastructure of the<br />
festival is very organic: Biodegradable<br />
dishes and cups, organic dry<br />
toilets, ecologic paper, soap and<br />
toothpaste are just some examples<br />
for this sustainable party.<br />
“We discovered that spreading a<br />
gentle, clean organic feeling has a<br />
huge impact on the general vibe of<br />
the festival. So we decided to cultivate<br />
this style of event every year<br />
abit more”, promoter Matthieu aka<br />
D-Sens explains -<br />
„During the past years we saw plant<br />
walls, gardens, fountains, hanging<br />
nature in the middle of the dance<br />
floor and around. The new location<br />
of the festival is another change. It is<br />
a truly magic place, lush and full of<br />
energy.” Beside the great scenery,<br />
this new location offers a both unusual<br />
and amazing option for festivalgoers.<br />
On the one hand, there will<br />
be of course a free camping area.<br />
On the other hand, it is also possible<br />
to book a place on a camping area<br />
where there is electricity, water supply<br />
and permanent sanitary facilities<br />
available. Whoever wants even more<br />
luxury, can also book a bungalow.<br />
Further information at<br />
accomodation@aqua-veda.com.<br />
The party will concentrate on two<br />
dance floors, one presenting a diverse<br />
Trance line up, the other, an openminded<br />
concept of many joyful electronic<br />
music styles. Concerning the<br />
entertainment beside listening pleasure,<br />
Arcadia Festival strives to grow<br />
into the direction of a multicultural,<br />
multi-medial happening -<br />
„The biggest<br />
change in our festival<br />
will be an artistic<br />
extension, we<br />
want to develop<br />
further the digital<br />
art exposition<br />
and performance<br />
aspects of<br />
our event, create a<br />
bubble that pushes<br />
the boundaries of<br />
the crowd’s creativity<br />
by presenting<br />
many different<br />
digital art installations,sculptures,<br />
spontaneous<br />
fire shows and performances”,<br />
says<br />
Matthieu.<br />
Rumours even speak about a psychedelic<br />
festival parade taking place…<br />
An arts and craft market will represent<br />
the cultural diversity of our<br />
world and the food court will provide<br />
exotic meals to keep up the energy<br />
level in a delicious way. Finally a<br />
highly specialized security team will<br />
guarantee a safe and peaceful event,<br />
efficiently but very discreet.<br />

Music & Culture Festival<br />
27.07. – 01.08.2011 • Ancient Olympia, Greece<br />
As simple and plain as the name of<br />
this festival is, as varied and multicoloured<br />
is its program in terms<br />
of… you guessed it: Music and<br />
culture! During 6 days, 250 artists<br />
from 40 countries will present a<br />
large spectrum of electronic as<br />
well as acoustic, hand-made music<br />
but theatre, performances, lectures<br />
and workshops.Situated<br />
in the<br />
picturesque<br />
region of ancient<br />
Olympia,<br />
the environment<br />
of this<br />
open air is rich<br />
in culture as it<br />
can be. With a<br />
campsite opened<br />
for 9 days,<br />
the festival<br />
might be the<br />
perfect summer<br />
destination for<br />
travellers looking<br />
for a mixture<br />
of party,<br />
nature experience,<br />
cultural<br />
input and even<br />
beach.<br />
The music<br />
aspect of the festival is represented<br />
by two stages named after Greek<br />
gods inhabiting the surrounding<br />
oak forests according to the ancient<br />
mythology. Pan, the goat-legged,<br />
horned god of shepherds being<br />
famous for his hypnotic flute, is the<br />
inspiration for the Trance floor. Its<br />
epic line-up reads very psychedelic<br />
with artists like Avalon, Dick Trevor,<br />
Scorb, Talamasca, Shane Gobi<br />
and Laughing Buddha. Still, there<br />
is also great Progressive groove<br />
for the sunny Greek summer days<br />
like Emok, Symphonix or Sensient.<br />
Named after Artemis, the huntress,<br />
the goddess of fruitfulness among<br />
the 12 Olympian gods, the second<br />
stage offers a huge musical variety<br />
of Ambient, World Music, Reggae,<br />
Dub, Dubstep, Drum’n’Bass and<br />
even more… Bands like the Ozric<br />
Tentacles, Zion Train or Zen Garden<br />
create the unique atmosphere of a<br />
live concert, while artists like Broken<br />
Note, King Cannibal or Subeena<br />
spread modern electronic vibes.<br />
The culture aspect of the festival<br />
is represented on the Folos stage.<br />
Beside contemporary theatre performances,<br />
documentations will be<br />
shown about body, mind and poli-<br />
tics and speeches will be held. Another<br />
interesting aspect are the<br />
numerous workshops. On one hand,<br />
they deal with subjects like “The<br />
ancient medicine” or “Super foods<br />
and herbs”. On the other hand,<br />
there will be quite some technological<br />
classes about “New sound forms<br />
in real time electronic and natural<br />
sound combination”,<br />
“Modular mixing and<br />
synthesizing” or “555<br />
Timer and DIY electronic<br />
construction”.<br />
The environment<br />
of ancient Olympia<br />
offers still further<br />
variety; wandering<br />
through the ancient<br />
oak forests, home of<br />
the mystic half-horse,<br />
half-man Centaurs<br />
and Druade fairies,<br />
having a rest at the<br />
Erymanthus river only<br />
800 meters and east<br />
of the venue, or visiting<br />
the nearby village<br />
of Androni, is a great<br />
nature experience and<br />
brings to life the rich<br />
Greek mythology. For<br />
those looking for a<br />
lazy day at the beach,<br />
there will be a shuttle to Katakolo<br />
in Ilia, one of the most famous and<br />
amazing beaches only 40 minutes<br />
drive from the festival site.<br />
Music and culture festival is limited<br />
to 4000 tickets to guarantee a both<br />
international and familiar vibe.<br />

Tangra Eco Art Dance Festival<br />
09–13.09.2011 • Pirin Mountains, Bulgaria<br />
Located in the breathtaking countryside<br />
of the Pirin Mountains in<br />
Bulgaria, Tangra festival offers a<br />
spectacular final destination for<br />
travelers exploring the world of<br />
the European open air summer.<br />
The event is inspired by Tangrism,<br />
which describes a philosophic<br />
trinity of Tan (the universe), Nak<br />
(the human) and Ra (god). Accordingly,<br />
the festival pursues a very<br />
spiritual approach and strives to<br />
make this universal, profoundly<br />
sensible philosophic formula<br />
come true during 4 nights and 5<br />
days of music, dance and culture.<br />
With a focus on the rich scene culture<br />
of East Europe this ecological,<br />
tribal, shamanic and spiritual<br />
ritual might become a very special<br />
experience.<br />
Once home of the last Dragons, the<br />
green mountains of Bulgaria with<br />
their deep forests and clear rivers<br />
lend to Tangra festival a very<br />
pure and natural but also mystical<br />
vibe. This ancient energy is taken up<br />
every evening at sunset, when the<br />
music program on the main floor<br />
starts with a session of drums and<br />
acoustic instruments. For instance,<br />
Tengri from Macedonia or Tubiflex<br />
Project and Samodelia from the Bulgarian<br />
capital Sofia present independent<br />
sounds between ambient<br />
grooves, Ethno music and tribal<br />
influences, using lots of instruments<br />
and vocals as well. With the sun<br />
sinking beyond the horizon, the hypnotic<br />
rhythms slowly morph to electronic<br />
tunes. Cosmosophy, the<br />
collaborative project of Flooting<br />
Grooves (UK) and Dymons (UK),<br />
will perform a 6-hour set full of<br />
live drums, flute sounds and the<br />
unique feeling of a concert, starting<br />
with Tribal Progressive Trance<br />
and slowly but constantly developing<br />
towards Tribal Psy Trance.<br />
Tangra festival strongly represents<br />
the very fertile and exciting<br />
underground music scene of East<br />
Europe and welcomes some of the<br />
most interesting producers from<br />
this region. Atriohm, Encephalopaticys<br />
and Magic Seeds from Macedonia,<br />
Already Maged and Saikozaurus<br />
from Ukraine or Komarchiki<br />
from Russia stand for deep and<br />
twisted forest sound with an intellectual<br />
edge, telling epic mystic stories.<br />
More truly psychedelic sounds<br />
are provided by artists like Kliment<br />
(BG), Once Upon a Time (BG), Surbahar<br />
(BG) or Asoma (BG). September<br />
12th will be a full moon night,<br />
transforming the built-up spirituality<br />
and creativity into an eternal flow of<br />
primitive energy.<br />
According to its holistic idea, Tangra<br />
goes beyond the scope of a pure<br />
dance event. There is the opportu-<br />
nity to explore an intense visionary<br />
exhibition by Ukrainian artist<br />
Trootootoo and to get lost in the<br />
fantastic decorations by the Russian<br />
Quantum Tribe. Numerous workshops<br />
provide spiritual input about<br />
subjects like music therapy. Also,<br />
there will be a library of interesting<br />
books and a healing center offering<br />
spiritual practices, meditations and<br />
lectures on the ecological stability of<br />
our planet and the universe.<br />
Tangra festival is located 200 km<br />
from Sofia, 160 km from Thessalonica<br />
and 180 km from Skopje. The<br />
presale has started and will take<br />
place in three phases. Special price<br />
at the gates for everyone showing<br />
the mushroom edition June/July…<br />

SOL Festival<br />
25th to 29th of August 2011 • Extremadura, Spain<br />
The Third-Eye Vision team was<br />
just about to give up its ambitious<br />
search when they discovered a<br />
stunning, possible location for their<br />
festival project in Spain’s beautiful<br />
“wild west” close to the Portuguese<br />
border. This venue in Extremadura<br />
provided three of the basic ingredients<br />
for an open air experience<br />
to remember: An amazing scenery,<br />
a huge lake for swimming and a<br />
guarantee of sunshine. Luckily<br />
it turned out that the people<br />
from the nearby village<br />
of Santibañez el Alto<br />
as well as the local authorities<br />
were more than up<br />
for the idea of a multicultural<br />
electronic festival.<br />
Thus the project was<br />
sealed: Around the last<br />
weekend of August, a fusion<br />
of art, music, performance<br />
and dance will take place on<br />
the dreamlike location.<br />
Though SOL Festival will be their first<br />
open air event of this size, the Third-<br />
Eye Vision team is everything but a<br />
black horse when it comes to party<br />
organization. Consisting of members<br />
from Spain, Ireland, Holland,<br />
Germany, France, Belgium, Greece<br />
and India, the crew draws on a huge<br />
amount of experience. The history<br />
of their events reaches back to the<br />
late eighties when they promoted the<br />
rise of electronic music in Holland. In<br />
India, the team was responsible for<br />
classic Goa events up to 1997.<br />
The festival’s main music genre is an<br />
eclectic fusion of different traditional<br />
musical instruments backed with an<br />
electronic pulse and an emphasis on<br />
dance. The multi- cultural music programme<br />
includes popular artists as<br />
well as exciting inside tips from the<br />
genres of Trance, Techno and Fusion<br />
/ World Music. Three maestros have<br />
collected a music connoisseur’s line<br />
up of nothing less than pure quality:<br />
Frank Madsen from Koxbox, Pat Flanders<br />
from Mindwaves Music and Chillin<br />
Berlin and Leo Michaud, a less<br />
known artist but with a deep understanding<br />
of quality music. There<br />
will be three stages, each representing<br />
one facet of this entertaining<br />
fusion concept. The expertise of Bossinade<br />
Lightworks and Campattack<br />
from Holland is responsible<br />
for sound, lighting<br />
and ambiance together<br />
with the Dutch Young<br />
artists who are designing<br />
and creating the<br />
dance floor sun shading<br />
and deco. To get<br />
and keep everything<br />
rolling, the crew of<br />
Life Festival from Ireland<br />
will provide support<br />
and guidance with<br />
regard to logistics and<br />
organization.<br />
SOL Festival tickets include<br />
five days camping within the<br />
property grounds, situated in a rolling<br />
countryside on the shores of a<br />
huge lake. A special area will be designated<br />

OpenMind Eco-Festival<br />
Celebration and Well-being<br />
August 9th –16th 2011 • Between Montreal and Ottawa, Canada<br />
OpenMind Festival is a gathering of<br />
Celebration, Visionary arts, Transcendent<br />
music, Conscious workshops<br />
and Well-being. It’s a balanced<br />
ecstatic celebration of life!<br />
Come celebrate the ecstasy of life<br />
in nature! OpenMind is a unique,<br />
visionary and enchanted festival!<br />
A place where there‘s no boundaries,<br />
where we are all One. A space<br />
where we find our deep-rooted<br />
connection with nature. A time<br />
which allows well-being, to heal<br />
and reconnect with ourselves. A<br />
moment of pure expression and<br />
sharing, without limits or judgment.<br />
A break in time to celebrate ecstasy<br />
of life in nature!<br />
It‘s a festival where visionary arts,<br />
transcendent music and spirituality<br />
are united to give us the opportunity<br />
to seize the moment, live<br />
fully, outside our daily routines,<br />
in a supernatural universe. It‘s an<br />
occasion we give ourselves to contemplate<br />
life and let our innerchild<br />
emerge. To live in moments of<br />
peace, unconditional love and ecstasy;<br />
of Pure Life. To celebrate time<br />
while we still have time! To live life<br />
fully. Live Love without Limits…<br />
OpenMind Festival started from a<br />
vision; a vision to help consciousness<br />
to arise, to help us all to awaken<br />
about environment, nature,<br />
others, and about ourselves. This<br />
seed has grown into the OpenMind<br />
Eco-Festival; a gathering of celebration,<br />
well-being and peace much<br />
involved in sustainability.<br />
The vision of the festival is to burst<br />
current paradigms to enter in a new<br />
sustainable and free era; as well<br />
as to create an important positive<br />
impact on the environment, societies<br />
and global consciousness. To achieve<br />
this, our mission is to create individual<br />
and global change by creating<br />
spaces to allow the blooming of our<br />
children’s hearts and the experience<br />
of a new healthy, balanced and sustainable<br />
way of living. We put forward<br />
an extensive sustainable<br />
plan which you can<br />
consult on our website.<br />
OpenMind Eco-Festival is<br />
not only a visionary gathering<br />
of celebration, but<br />
also a moment to take care<br />
of ourselves; to reconnect<br />
with nature, with others<br />
and our inner child. The<br />
one week event has many<br />
different activities to offer:<br />
A sunny music stage playing<br />
world music, tribal, psychedelic<br />
trance, goatrance,<br />
psy-tribal, reggae, dub, trance; an<br />
ambient music stage playing ethnic<br />
music, Indian, psybient, downtempo<br />
ambient; an extensive yoga/workshops/conferences<br />
stage on a variety<br />
of conscious subjects; a healing<br />
area where all kind of therapist and<br />
healers offer free treatments; An<br />
enchanted forest to purify the contemplative<br />
mind; a visionary art exhibition;<br />
a giant labyrinth; a conscious<br />
cinema; sweat lodges; positive ceremonies;<br />
circus performances and<br />
original animations; a children’s village;<br />
a community kitchen; an artisans<br />
village; conscious restaurants<br />
and much more!<br />
The concept of the festival is to<br />
create a moment out of ordinary<br />
life, out of time, to be able to experience<br />
new things, to discover new<br />
tools for enlightenment, to live fully<br />
each moment without thinking about<br />
anything else. To achieve this, besides<br />
all activities offered and quite<br />
innovative decorations, all activities<br />
(but food) are free on site. Enjoy!<br />

Waldfrieden Wonderland<br />
12. – 14.08.2011 • Stemwede-Wehdem, Germany<br />
Die nackten Füße in feinem Sand,<br />
die Nase in frischer Waldluft: So<br />
wird im Wunderland gefeiert!<br />
Auf zwei Tanzflächen bietet<br />
dieses in mancherlei Hinsicht<br />
außergewöhnliche Festival 48<br />
Stunden Musikvergnügen ohne<br />
Unterbrechung, wobei der<br />
Schwerpunkt auf progressivem<br />
Psy Trance liegt. Viele kleine<br />
Details und mit ihnen das eine<br />
oder andere Abenteuer, das es zu<br />
entdecken gilt, runden das bunte<br />
Programm ab.<br />
Die Wonderland ist anders. Zum<br />
einen in geografischer Hinsicht.<br />
Anders als praktisch alle anderen<br />
großen, internationalen Erwachsenenspielplätze<br />
in Deutschland ist<br />
sie nämlich nicht am berühmten<br />
Goa Highway 24 gelegen, sondern<br />
im Großraum Minden in Nordrhein-<br />
Westfalen. Aber auch vor Ort unterscheidet<br />
sich die Geografie von<br />
anderen Festivals. Sie verfügt nämlich<br />
über ausgesprochen schöne<br />
Rundungen… in Form zahlreicher<br />
bewaldeter Hügel, von denen das<br />
Gelände umgeben ist. Auf diese<br />
Weise eröffnen sich immer wieder<br />
neue Ausblicke auf das bunte Treiben<br />
im Wunderland.<br />
Zum anderen ist es die Aufmachung,<br />
die dieses Festival zu etwas ganz<br />
besonderem macht. Da der eigentliche<br />
Partybereich nämlich nicht nur<br />
angemietet ist, sondern ganzjährig<br />
zu jenem Waldhaus gehört, dem<br />
die Örtlichkeit ihren malerischen<br />
Namen verdankt, kann hier langfristig<br />
geplant und vorbereitet werden.<br />
Von speziellen Bepflanzungen über<br />
Schaukeln und mit feinem Sand aufgeschüttete<br />
Tanzflächen bis hin zur<br />
aus Holz gefertigten Bühne und dem<br />
berühmten Aussichtslosenturm ent-<br />
steht so eine ganz besondere Atmosphäre.<br />
Neben der großen Tanzfläche, auf<br />
der es durchweg progressiv-psychedelisch<br />
zugeht, bietet ein weiterer<br />
Freiluftbereich tagsüber verspielten<br />
Minimal und Elektro. Nachts und<br />
im Falle von starkem Regen öffnet<br />
zudem das Haus Waldfrieden,<br />
in dessen Räumlichkeiten es progressive<br />
Beschallung gibt. Ein kleiner,<br />
sorgfältig zusammengestellter<br />
Markt bietet nicht nur Kleidung<br />
und Accessoires, sondern auch verschiedene<br />
Essens-, Tee- und Kaffeestände,<br />
wobei ausschließlich Bio-<br />
Lebensmittel angeboten werden.<br />
Im Campingbereich stehen ausreichend<br />
Toiletten und Duschen zur<br />
Verfügung. Zu guter letzt ermöglicht<br />
ein kostenfreier Transport vom und<br />
zum Bahnhof Lemförde die Möglichkeit<br />
einer entspannten Anreise<br />
mit öffentlichen Verkehrsmitteln.<br />
Photo by Bakke<br />
Situated in the middle of a rolling<br />
countryside and lush forests,<br />
Waldfrieden Wonderland is different<br />
than most of the other<br />
adult playgrounds of the German<br />
festival summer. It’s not only this<br />
special venue that is so attractive,<br />
but also the extensive usage of<br />
natural materials for the festival<br />
design, which takes up the woody<br />
vibe of the surroundings. Focussing<br />
on progressive Psy Trance,<br />
Wonderland offers two open<br />
air dance floors as well as one<br />
indoor club room with altogether<br />
48 hours non-stop music. Free<br />
camping will be provided with<br />
toilets and showers. Easy arrival<br />
via public transport is guaranteed<br />
by a free shuttle bus from the<br />
train station Lemförde.<br />

Spiritual Healing<br />
25. - 29.08.2011 • Gerdshagen / North-East Germany<br />
In den vergangen 7 Jahren hat<br />
sich das Spiritual Healing Festival<br />
zu einem beliebten Höhepunkt<br />
des deutschen Festivalsommers<br />
entwickelt. In ständigem<br />
Wandel befindlich, repräsentiert<br />
sein außergewöhnlich vielseitiges<br />
Programm alle Facetten<br />
unserer Szenekultur: Psy Trance<br />
und Weltmusik, aber auch Naturheilkunde<br />
und moderne Spiritualität.<br />
Zwischen der Tanzfläche am<br />
Badesee, der Alternativ-Bühne<br />
und der Healing Area mit Vorträgen,<br />
Seminaren und Workshops<br />
entfaltet sich eine einzigartige<br />
Atmosphäre: Der Spirit von<br />
Harmonie, der in Erinnerung ruft,<br />
wer wir wirklich sind.<br />
Eine musikalische Besonderheit<br />
stellt die psychedelische Oldschool<br />
Nacht auf dem Trance Floor dar.<br />
Den entspannt- verträumten Auftakt<br />
für diese illustre Unternehmung<br />
spielt diesmal The Muses Rapt, ein<br />
Musiker, der schon seit den frühen<br />
80ern mit den psychotropen Eigenschaften<br />
von Klängen experimentiert<br />
und dessen Debütalbum den<br />
Titel „Spiritual Healing“ trug. Gleichsam<br />
darf man sich auf eine echte<br />
„First Lady“ des Psy Trance freuen:<br />
Miranda aus Schweden wird eines<br />
ihrer energiegeladen Oldschool Sets<br />
spielen. Acts wie U-Recken, Digicult,<br />
E-clip, Zyce, Silicon Sound,<br />
NOK, Ansolas & Lightrocker oder<br />
Miko on Magic Violin ergänzen ein<br />
modernes Trance-Moment. Zudem<br />
exquisiten Chill Out von Vargo.<br />
Neben dem vielseitigen Psy Trance<br />
Programm gibt es auf dem Worldmusic<br />
Floor Oldies der 50er und<br />
60er, Dance der 70er, 80er und<br />
90er, Dream Jazz, Blues und vieles<br />
mehr zu hören.<br />
Das traditionell aufwendige Rahmenprogramm<br />
beinhaltet eine<br />
Ausstellung der englischen<br />
Malerin Josephine Wall, die zum<br />
ersten Mal in Deutschland zu Gast<br />
ist. Eines ihrer fantastischen Werke<br />
ist auf dem diesjährigen Flyer der<br />
Spiritual Healing zu sehen. Die<br />
Künstlerin wird sogar gemeinsam<br />
mit den Besuchern malen. Weitere<br />
Angebote der Healing Area<br />
sind z.B. Naturheilkunde Seminare,<br />
Lach-Yoga, Qi Gong, ein Vortrag<br />
über Quantenphysik oder<br />
verschiedene Meditationen.<br />
Und schließlich ermöglichen ein<br />
Kinderspace mit FUNtastischer<br />
Gestaltung, das Healing Cinema,<br />
Feuertänzer und vieles mehr<br />
Besuchern jeden Alters und Interesses<br />
ein wundervolles Erlebnis.<br />
Auf dass das Motto des Spiritual<br />
Healing Festivals auch in diesem<br />
Jahr Wirklichkeit wird: „Mögen<br />
alle Wesen glücklich sein!“<br />
With a remarkabley varied programme,<br />
Spiritual Healing has<br />
become a popular highlight of the<br />
German open air summer. In addition<br />
to Psy Trance, a large range<br />
of World Music is represented on<br />
a special stage and in the Healing<br />
Area. There are many workshops<br />
and lectures on subjects like natural<br />
healing, laughing yoga, Qi Gong,<br />
quantum mechanics or meditation.<br />
The Trance floor is situated right next<br />
to a bathing lake. Its traditional Oldschool<br />
Night presents amazing artists<br />
like Miranda or The Muses Rapt. A<br />
visual highlight will be the exhibition<br />
of Josephine Wall, one of her fantastic<br />
paintings can be seen on this year’s<br />
flyer. The artist will even paint together<br />
with the visitors. A special place for<br />
children and a Healing Cinema finally<br />
make sure that the motto of the festival<br />
comes true: “May all beings be happy!”<br />

Indian Spirit Festival<br />
01. – 05.09.2011 • Heiligengrabe, North-East Germany<br />
„Das Beste kommt zum Schluss!“<br />
besagt ein Sprichwort. Und tatsächlich<br />
findet sich am Ende des deutschen<br />
Festivalsommers ein echter<br />
Höhepunkt in Sachen beschwingtpsychedelischer<br />
Freiluftkultur. Als<br />
internationales Stammestreffen<br />
bietet die Indian Spirit Gelegenheit,<br />
noch einmal mit der gesamten<br />
Open Air Familie zu feiern, bevor<br />
sich das Szenegeschehen nach drinnen<br />
verlagert. Das Rahmenprogramm<br />
hierfür kann sich wirklich<br />
sehen und hören lassen…<br />
In punkto Optik gibt es nämlich<br />
eine besondere 3D Dekoration auf<br />
die Augen. Was zunächst wie gut<br />
gemachte Schwarzlichtmalerei und<br />
Videoprojektion wirkt, entfaltet beim<br />
Blick durch spezielle Brillen einen<br />
wahrhaft bewusstseinserweiternden<br />
Tiefeneffekt. Bemerkenswert räumlich<br />
geht es auf den Tanzflächen auch<br />
in akustischer Hinsicht zur<br />
Sache. Funktion One<br />
Anlagen vermitteln<br />
hier ein einmaligesHörerlebnis,<br />
ihr Sound<br />
ergießt sich wie<br />
glasklare Flüssigkeit<br />
über die feierwütige<br />
Meute.<br />
Indes wirkt die<br />
Musik trotz<br />
sattestem<br />
Schalldruck<br />
nie<br />
aggressiv<br />
oder aufdringlich.<br />
Und<br />
so können<br />
die<br />
hypnotischen<br />
Klänge der aus allen Himmelsrichtungen<br />
anreisenden Musikschamanen<br />
ihre Wirkung besonders gut entfalten.<br />
Seien es die psychedelischen Abfahrten<br />
von Rinkadink, Ephedrix und Slider,<br />
die progressiven Rhythmen von<br />
Quantize, Neelix und Ritmo oder auf<br />
dem Dark Floor Hishiryo, Megalopsy,<br />
-Z- und Vic Triplag – anregende<br />
Beschallung für das spätsommerliche<br />
Tanzritual gibt es mehr als<br />
reichlich!<br />
“The best comes<br />
at the end!” as the<br />
saying goes. In fact<br />
the European festival<br />
summer ends<br />
with this top-notch<br />
highlight: Indian<br />
Spirit transforms<br />
the ancient vibe<br />
of a tribal meeting<br />
into a modern<br />
Trance ritual and<br />
offers the opportunity<br />
to see<br />
once again all<br />
the international<br />
open air family<br />
before the<br />
indoor season<br />
arrives. Since the<br />
late nineties this festival grew steadily<br />
and eventually became one<br />
the most popular along the famous<br />
North-East German “Goa Highway<br />
24”.<br />
This year the psychedelic design of<br />
Indian Spirit is literally taken to another<br />
dimension. A special 3D decoration<br />
and projection concept will produce<br />
a one-of-a-kind impression of optical<br />
depth when watched through special<br />
glasses. Also, the sound on the dance<br />
floors will be three-dimensional as it<br />
can be: Funktion One systems provide<br />
a truly physical listening experience<br />
with music pouring over the crowd<br />
like a crystal clear liquid. In this way,<br />
the hypnotic rhythms of the numerous<br />
music-shamans from all four corners<br />
of the earth can take effect in a very<br />
powerful way. Highly psychedelic takeoffs<br />
by Rinkadink, Ephedrix and Slider,<br />
progressive tunes by Quantize, Neelix<br />
and Ritmo or Dark magic by Hishiryo,<br />
Megalopsy, -Z- and Vic Triplag – there<br />
is everything to push the limits of exciting<br />
musical energy for this late-summer<br />
dance ritual!<br />

line-up, fantastic surroundings and<br />
top-organization that inspires ability.<br />

Theft at festivals<br />
Unfortunately this year’s open air<br />
season also brought a wave of<br />
theft. At several festivals, tents have<br />
systematically been ransacked and<br />
cars have been broken into. Therefore<br />
we call on you: Intervene by<br />
asking what is going on when you<br />
watch something suspicious. If the<br />
situation does not clear up by doing<br />
so or if you encounter any kind<br />
of aggressive reactions, alarm the<br />
nearby festival visitors about what’s<br />
happening and call the security!<br />
Diebe auf Festivals<br />
Leider hat die aktuelle Open Air<br />
Saison auch eine Diebstahlwelle mit<br />
sich gebracht. Auf verschiedenen<br />
Festivals wurden systematisch Zelte<br />
durchwühlt und Autos aufgebrochen.<br />
Daher an dieser Stelle der Aufruf:<br />
Mischt euch durch Nachfragen<br />
ein, wenn ihr etwas Auffälliges<br />
beobachtet. Sollte sich die Situation<br />
dadurch nicht aufklären oder ihr<br />
auf aggressive Reaktionen stoßen,<br />
macht andere Festivalbesucher auf<br />
das Geschehen aufmerksam und<br />
verständigt die Security!<br />

Kannibalen Massaker is<br />
NOT a Hard Rock event!<br />
We made a mistake in<br />
the english version of the<br />
Kannibalen Massaker<br />
article. Indeed there will be<br />
some Hard Rock combos<br />
playing but they are just one<br />
little part of the colourful<br />
non-electronic alternative<br />
program, beside World Music<br />
bands and songwriter music.<br />
The main part of this festival<br />
is of course Psytrance!

Random Road Trip!<br />
After having made an interview with Neelix about his unreleased tracks in our last<br />
edition, our little Australian, Ky, ended up road tripping back to Hamburg from<br />
Copenhagen after meeting him at an event held there.<br />
“I greeted Henrik behind the progressive stage (Neelix) and introduced myself. He<br />
immediately took me in his arms and said ‘thank you’. I feel so proud to be able to<br />
help the people behind the music, even more grateful to be appreciated. Neelix then<br />
invited me to join them in their minivan back to Hamburg along with Day Din, Benny<br />
Moon (&his brother Finn), Fabio, Klopfgeister and Symphonix, on one of the most<br />
entertaining spontaneous road trips of my life! And... after getting to know the guys<br />
abit better, the Hamburg crew are a good bunch. Thanks heaps guys! I encourage<br />
people to check out their music!” - Kylie Van Eerden<br />
Mekkanikka<br />
Artists are often working around the clock, and other arrangements. We were lucky<br />
enough to get our hands on this cheeky and sneaky screen shot of Mekkanikka!<br />

Festival Couch<br />
From a once crazy idea after a few<br />
drinks one night to motorize a couch,<br />
Mardy Daniel has really embraced his<br />
creation of Festival Couch!<br />
I must admit, I had to take a second<br />
look as I saw this wondrous thing<br />
zooming around at Rainbow Serpent<br />
2011 in Australia earlier this year, and<br />
I could only sit there in amazement as<br />
he awed the crowds. I think to myself...<br />
This guy is a genius.<br />
After chatting to him further, this guy<br />
taken on festival couch to new levels!<br />
He is now building, creating, hiring and<br />
sharing his wonderful toy with anyone<br />
who wants to hire one - from film clips,<br />
festivals, parties, or just for anyone<br />
who wants to have the novelty to buzz<br />
one around a festival for the weekend.<br />
Brilliant mate!<br />

Where are they now?<br />
DJ Mahasuka<br />
When it comes to the evolution of<br />
Progressive Trance, DJ Mahasuka<br />
from Hamburg is a name that would<br />
not be missed out. He first came in<br />
contact with the scene in 1993 and was<br />
instantly hooked. In 1999 he founded<br />
the project Intact Instinct, together<br />
with Stefan Hübner and Marcus Carp.<br />
Despite the fact that their sound was<br />
very minimal and came along with only<br />
a hint of melody, it was very deep and<br />
hypnotic in nature. He also worked<br />
together with Sebastian Krüger under<br />
the moniker Disco Slickers, another<br />
very successful project that serves as<br />
a prime example for the vast diversity<br />
of Progressive Trance in its early days.<br />
In 2003 Mahasuka withdrew from the<br />
scene. Since then he worked as a project<br />
manager, and also completed his<br />
two best productions so far - A son and<br />
a daughter. Currently there are reliable<br />
rumours around about a retro gig of Intact<br />
Instinct at a big festival… featuring<br />
all the three original members!<br />

Alcohol<br />
“The cause of, and solution to, all of life‘s problems” (Homer Simpson)<br />
Calculation of the blood alcohol concentration<br />
According to a formula provided by the Swedish chemist Erik Widmark<br />
Calculate amount of pure alcohol.<br />
E.g.: 1.5 litres beer containing 5% alcohol<br />
1.500 ml x 0.05 % = 75 ml pure alcohol<br />
Convert millilitres to grams using the specific weight of alcohol<br />
which is 0.81 (water is 1).<br />
75 ml pure alcohol x 0.81 = 60.75 g pure alcohol<br />
This value now has to be divided by the reduced body wight of<br />
the drinker.<br />
The reduced body weight of a woman is her actual body weight<br />
multiplied by 0.6.<br />
Why do I have to piss so often when drinking alcohol?<br />
Alcohol blocks a hormone that is responsible for the recovery of<br />
water from urine. In this respect, we are not talking about the urine<br />
which we eventually excrete, but its primary form that is produced<br />
by the kidneys in very high amounts. Thanks to the mentioned, so<br />
called anti-diuretic hormone, around 99% of the water of this primary<br />
urine are re-absorbed by the body. Because alcohol blocks<br />
The reduced body weight of a man is his actual body weight multiplied by 0.7.<br />
Let’s assume the drinker is female. Her reduced body weight is:<br />
65 kg actual body weight x 0.6 = 39 kg reduced body weight<br />
Now the calculated amount of pure alcohol has to be divided by the<br />
reduced body weight. The result is the per mL level.<br />
60.75 g pure alcohol / 39 kg = 1.56 per mL<br />
Decomposition of alcohol<br />
Per hour, around 0.1 per mill of the blood alcohol will be decomposed.<br />
In our case that means it would take the lady around 15 hours to be<br />
completely sober again! Keep in mind: The actual decomposition process<br />
and its duration strongly differs from human to human, this formula<br />
is everything but 100% reliable.<br />
this hormone, there is more water in the urine we excrete, which<br />
is to say there is a higher volume of urine. This effect is independent<br />
from the amount of water we drank recently- the body, consisting<br />
of more than 70% water, simply becomes dehydrated. This<br />
again is one of the major reasons for the hangover. Also, alcohol<br />
has a muscle-relaxing effect which also affects the muscles<br />
of the bladder.<br />
Did you now that…<br />
› There is no scientific explanation for the saying “Beer after wine and you’ll feel fine; wine after beer and<br />
you’ll feel queer”<br />
› The expression “toast” is based on the ancient Roman ritual to drop a piece of roasted bread into wine<br />
› A mixed drink containing carbonated beverage is absorbed into the body more quickly than straight shots<br />
› The pressure in a bottle of champagne is about three times the pressure in automobile tyres<br />
› Drinking lowers rather than raises the body temperature. There is an illusion of increased heat<br />
because alcohol causes the capillaries to dilate and fill with more warm blood.<br />
› One of the few short sentences in the English language to include every letter of the English alphabet<br />
is: “Pack my box with five dozen liquor jugs.”<br />
Myth: Movement accelerates the decomposition of blood alcohol<br />
Intense movement, like dancing, will not accelerate the decomposition of alcohol and the amount of<br />
alcohol transpired by sweating is only marginal. In fact, 95% of the decomposition of blood alcohol is<br />
done by the liver and this organ is not very fast: Per hour, the blood alcohol level decreases by 0,1 to<br />
0,2 per mL. It is true, that alcohol is transpired with the sweat but only a maximum of 5% - which is not<br />
relevant for an acute intoxication. Still, intense movement gets the circulation going, which has a positive<br />
subjective effect. This also goes for a strong coffee or a cold shower, which are often held to be a<br />
“downer” for an alcohol intoxication.
Investigating of Vaporizers<br />
For those trying to give up smoking<br />
tobacco, or for those just wanting to<br />
learn more about this term that has<br />
been floating around in more recent<br />
years... We spoke with Vaposhop to<br />
find out some answers about what<br />
exactly is a vaporizer.<br />
Vaporization - What is it?<br />
Vaporizing is becoming increasingly<br />
popular as a healthy alternative to<br />
smoking. For most users the noticeable<br />
difference between smoke and<br />
vapor gives quite the benefits: Vaporizing<br />
is healthier AND more effective,<br />
it utilizes much more of the<br />
herbs used than if it were smoked or<br />
burned. The vapor created when used<br />
is inhaled as a light steam, which not<br />
only feels healthier, but IS healthier!<br />
The differences can really be noticed<br />
when using over a seemingly short<br />
time! (see http://vaporizer-info.com/<br />
en/why-vaporize )<br />
What is a vaporizer?<br />
A vaporizer is a device that heats<br />
up dried herbs to a temperature<br />
at which they release their active<br />
components into an aromatic<br />
vapor. These days there are units<br />
you can purchase for the home,<br />
and also smaller more portable<br />
units for when you are traveling.<br />
In the process utilized by the<br />
vaporizer, the herb is not<br />
scorched, burned or combusted,<br />
and thus no<br />
smoke is generated. Although vapor<br />
may appear to resemble smoke, it<br />
doesn‘t contain any of the toxic particles<br />
(tar, benzene, toluene, naftalene<br />
etc.) which make smoking such a<br />
health hazard. (from: vaporizer-info.<br />
com – more at http://vaporizer-info.<br />
com/en/what-vaporizer)<br />
-thanks to vaporizer-info.com where<br />
you can find further info.<br />
Portable and electric vaporizers<br />
Portable vaporizers are great for on<br />
the go, but require batteries or butane<br />
to operate. An electric vaporizer is<br />
mostly used at home and is plugged<br />
into a wall outlet. Most electric vapor-<br />
izers allow for temperature control.<br />
In the case of cannabis, different temperatures<br />
can affect the psychoactive<br />
properties (high or stone).<br />
