This weekends Samhain Forest Gathering

Welcome to this weeks show Its Samhain Weekend
Shiva 

This week we are off to celebrate the Celtic newyear know as Samhain. 
The Psycadelic Temple of Shiva will be errected to celebrate the
Celtic Fire Festival of Samhain on Friday 1st November 2013 to
bring in the celtic new year. Bring out yer dead! A notice board
will be suitably placed upon which any one can attach a photo of
any deceased loved one as we remember and acknowledge our ancestors
who have walked this earth before us. The core of the celebration
is the death of the old year and the birth of the new.
Celtic
 

The Celts divided their year into two seasons: the light and the dark, at Beltane on 1st May and Samhain. Many believe that Samhain was the more important festival, marking the beginning of a new cycle. Just as the Celtic day began at night, it was believed that in the darkness new life would emerge, similar to the stirring of the seed below the ground. The most magical time of this festival was November Eve, the night of 31st October, better known today as Halloween.
We are bring you two Dj's this week a little blast from one of our previous show's.

Our 2nd Dj on the show is Dj Takehiko Nakamura his mix has a few surprises in it but a really fresh sound loved it.

Dj Takehiko Nakamura 

Our 3rd Dj tonight is one we have had on before I played this again because I loved it the first time and it makes me think of summer.


Each week we will try and let you no were the best party's are around the UK

This is the real story
Run for the hills, the revellers are here, the barbarians are at the gate, yes they may only be dancing in a forest now but pretty soon they’ll come for your children, burn down your house, double park, litter and damage newly planted trees.
I’ve watched with interest over the past few years as North Wales Police and the press routinely set out with wilful abandon to undermine and inhibit the independent festival movement around our little hamlet and further afield. It saddens me to see such entrepreneurial work hindered so cynically and persistently by the powers that be under the guise of ‘public safety’.
Picking up the local paper this week I didn’t see any mention of a grass-roots amateur music  and arts festival taking place over the weekend, if I did it may have been lost amongst the usual contemptuous drivel about Biggles the cat who everyone thought was deaf but turned out to be extremely responsive to Schubert’s fifth symphony or other such nonsense that sadly demean local news publications to nothing more than spouters of tea-time tittle-tattle. What I did here about however was one of those dreaded ‘raves’ that took place on privately owned land with said land owner’s permission. People, holding a private party on privately owned land in the countryside? The bastards, we can’t let this stand. The article that accompanied the headline read with the usual tiresome string of word association that is dragged out to condemn these events – the dreaded ‘young people’, the prospect of ‘littering’ and that old what-the-fuck-does-it-actually-mean-ism ‘anti social behaviour’.
The events change, the pattern however does not. Festivals threatened with closure on grounds of breach of public order notices or licensing issues, the obligatory slur in the local press and the warning to all prospective party-goers that what you are doing is completely and utterly wrong, yes you there in the wilderness with your friends dancing together in harmony away from the rest of society enjoying the music you love, WHAT YOU ARE DOING IS WRONG.
It’s disheartening and frankly quite boring to see the same old rubbish trotted out at the slightest mention of an independently organised festival. My experience of this scene is rather different, mine is of diligent conservation of the site to make sure that it is left as pristine as it was found (hippies are surprisingly respectful of nature dontchaknow?), of the desire to find a site in which music can be enjoyed at loud levels that is secluded enough so as not to disturb any residents nearby. As for the fabled anti-social behaviour, I ain’t seen it mate, seen a lot of hugging, seen a lot of laughing, seen some questionable dance moves but I ain’t seen any violence, vandalism, intimidation, theft or even a voice raised above the sound system, wouldn’t it be lovely if our town centres were like that on a Saturday night?
So why are these events so demonised? As ever the seeds were sewn many years ago. There has unfortunately been a systemic effort on the part of the establishment to suppress the free festival movement since the mid-eighties that was first publicised when Thatcher smashed the peace convoy in ’85. The same old story has been trotted out since that day peddled by un-imaginative journalists and official looking press releases – these bunch of gypsies are out to cause trouble, no two ways about it.
But how’s about we take our head out of the local paper? How’s about we stop being self-righteous about a culture we don’t understand? How’s about we look at the facts? This wonderful landscape of ours lends itself perfectly to the playing of loud music, a sticking point that can’t be refuted – I’ve been to these events, the music is bloody loud, it’s supposed to be loud. How about we utilise the natural peaks and troughs of the landscape to find areas in which sound can be contained entirely naturally? How about we make a sustained effort to monitor the states in which these sites are left after the organisers and revellers have departed? Is it because we’re worried that they might actually be left clean and unharmed? Because if these party-mad lunatics are actually being responsible then why should we hate them so much? Should we maybe remember that our parents and our grandparents thought that The Rolling Stones and all the reprobates who went to see them were a bunch of irresponsible trouble-makers hell-bent on promoting destruction and anarchy? Why did they think this? The Stones are great, we all know that, oh yeh it’s because they didn’t understand, they feared what they didn’t understand and that’s what made it all the more exciting for those involved, Jesus our fore-fathers were such squares maaaaaaan.
I do not make these points because I am actively involved in the independent festival scene, I have been to a few of these events and the music just ain’t my bag I’m afraid, wonderful atmosphere, lovely people but the music simply isn’t my cup of tea,  I have no vested interest in them whatsoever. So why am I riling against their prohibition? Because I happen to think that any festival not selling Coca-Cola at £6 a bottle is good, any festival without a mobile phone charging unit and a cash machine that charges a fiver per transaction is good. I happen to think that independent music and arts festivals that can be organised, policed and maintained by people whose soul motivation is a love for what they are doing should be applauded not condemned. This is not a solution this is a call for levity to be given on both sides of the fence. I want the powers that be to encourage these festivals, to not continue to dishearten the enthusiasts who put them on by making them jump through hoops, shift the goal posts and pull the rug from under them just because it isn’t ‘their scene’.
The good earth is rich and abundant in our little part of the world, there is room for us all to enjoy the things we love, don’t put up barriers in your mind against those who you don’t understand, try to accept them. Then when you find something that really gets you off – go out and do it and hope for that same tolerance from others. Get your head out the paper, get your arse off the sofa, get your mind opened and let’s all try and get on with each other hey for fuck sak
Please feel free to leave comments love to know your point of view

Its a really up beat funky tune with a lot of nice beats. 

Our 2nd producer this week is symbolic.

symbolic.

 

Symbolic' established by Ilan Shemi & Oshry Ben Simon aka DJ Osho during the middle of the year 2011. Symbolic music style can be best described as, Psychedelic Progressive Trance, heavy fat bass lines, with mechanic rhythms and crunchy grooves, with main focus strictly for the dance floor. Since their first production together, they got incredible feedbacks from the dance floors all around the world and immediately the labels show their interest in working together with them. The first signings 'Crystal Clear' went on a compilation called 'Dance Computer' on 'Iboga Records', compiled by one of the world’s top Progressive Trance DJ’s / Producers, 'Ace Ventura'. Following 'Crystal Clear' was their remix for Ace Ventura & Rocky - Dr. Lupo on Echoes Records, which reached to number 1 on Beatport Psy-Trance Downloads Chart for several weeks, and become an anthem on dance floors around the world. Two collaboration tracks, one with Liquid Soul called 'Different Reality' and one with Sphera called 'One Step Closer' released on Iboga Records double CD compilation 'Groove Attack' compiled by Liquid Soul. Successful collaboration with Easy Riders (Ace Ventura & Rocky) called 'Flashback' was released on HOMmega Productions. Things are looking very interesting for 2012, including more releases to come, collaborations, remixes, and full studio album that will be followed during 2013.

Really enjoyed your mix guy's. 

Our 3rd is

  Ace Ventura 

Behind the Ace Ventura project is Yoni Oshrat - one of Israels biggest talents in electronic music, with a career on top of the scene, stretching for over a decade. Already from an early age Yoni was heavily influenced with music.

He was born in a musical family with his father being a famous Israeli composer and song writer (for instance behind the Eurovision song "Halelujah"), and it was there
fore no surprise that he went for a career in the sound-business; at first in the TV and movie-industry as a sound producer.

After discovering the blooming trance-scene in the beginning of the nineties, he started DJ'ing and teamed up with his friend DJ Goblin to form the psychedelic trance project Children Of The Doc, which later changed name to PSYSEX. Together they released 3 critically-acclaimed full length albums on HOMmega Productons, and played a big part in establishing Israel as one of the most important trance-countries on the globe.

After several years of intense touring, playing at some of the biggest parties and festivals worldwide, Yoni's taste moved more and more towards the slower, groovier side of music though, and from 2006 he took the decision to leave the Psysex project and form the two soloprojects SCHATSI and ACE VENTURA. With Schatsi he was quickly featured on labels like Hadshot and Mylo's Breastfed Recordings, and top DJ's like John Digweed played some of his material on numerous occasions. More attention was put into the Ace Ventura project though, and using a fusion of the hard, pumping dancefloor-oriented style from Psysex and the deeper, groovier influences of progressive trance, the Ace Ventura project became a big success, and in a matter of just a few releases, such as the now classic debut "Cardiac Arrest", he was already considered among the top producers on the progressive trance scene.

After appearing on releases on labels like Flow, Echoes, Blue Tunes, Spintwist, HOMmega and Iboga Records he finally released his debut solo album "Rebirth" in 2007, which was without a doubt one of the biggest releases of the year. It resulted in Ace Ventura winning the Psytrance category at the Beatport Music Awards in 2008.
About one year later the album was followed by a remix album "Re:Boot", which contained two CD's with remixes by various progressive trance, house, electro house and techno artists. This release, together with the release of "The Spark", the summer anthem remix of FREq's "Short Life Again" as well as a collaborations with various artists - also resulted in Ace Ventura winning the Psytrance category at the Beatport Music Awards in 2009, For the second year in a row. Recently releases such as 'Inside us' (together with Timelock) and the Interactive noise remix for the classic tune 'Presence' have reached the first place in the Beatport psytrance charts.

Despite playing all around the globe, at major events from Boom in Portugal, XXXPerience, Tribe and Universo Paralello in Brazil, Solstice in Japan, Glade in the UK ,Ozora in Hungary to Indian Spirit, Tshitraka, Antaris and Full Moon in Germany, Yoni isn't resting on the laurels – Working on other projects such as EASY RIDERS – together with fellow friend and partner Roy Tilbor (aka Rocky) – as well as on the newborn project ZENTURA, together with Wouter Thomassesn (aka Zen Mechanics) and last but not least, on the longtime collaboration LIQUID ACE, together with Nicola Capobianco (aka Liquid soul).

Besides producing tracks for various labels, Yoni complied a few successfull compilations, namely the 'New order' series for HOMmega records, which was the first progressive release of the label, as well as 'Digital beings' for Echoes records. Recently he compiled the double CD 'Dance Computer' for Iboga records, and now the 3rd chapter of the 'New order' series is ready to be unleashed as well. These days, final work is underway on the 2nd Ace Ventura album – 'Paradise engineering' – to be released by the end of the year on Iboga records.

This show just keeps getting better


A very big thank you to all the support the show has had since its first week. We now have listeners all over the world. Our show's are gathering more and more listeners each week.
The purpose of this webpage is to either enlighten or inform our listeners of the delights of psytrance.

Coming soon this page will give you a complete list of our Dj's and where they are playing next or if they have a new mix out.


This weeks Dj's mixes are really up lifting tunes to take you into the weekend followed by a very rare chillout mix to finish the show.
The first mix on the show this week is by Dj AZADEE of Tandava Records

 The second mix is by contineum.



Contineum is the joint project of Dj Miff (a.k.a Matt) & Razzek (a.k.a Kezza).
Originally started a solo project back in 2008 by Matt who's musical background comes from dirty DnB and hip hop. Matt joined the psychedelic circle when he went to an indoor festival called Rave and fell in love with the raw texture and psychedelia and so started working his way up the circuit, Djing and producing alongside names like Mechanimal, Sinerider, Aphid Moon, Saga etc and then founding the label Mutagen Records.
Razzek started Djing back in 2000, after moving to Goa and getting sucked into the lucid psy cosmos and quickly becoming a regular headline act in the party scene as well as around india, being known for his ability to not only work the dance floor but creating an atmosphere that swallows you up and spits you back out. Then heading back to the UK where he started producing and Djing round the UK along side acts like, Tron, Eat Static, Raja Ram, Rinkadink and Shane Gobi.
In 2011 they combine forces under the Contineum name to take the project to the next level. With Matt's knowledge of synthesis and Kezza's knowledge of sound engineering they worked together to bring the dance floor into a psychedelic soup of sound, making you weak at the legs and craving more. With many releases already under the belt and backed by both Mutagen and Maharetta Records, they push forward into the unexplored Contineum of space bringing you the hypnotic and exotic rhythms designed with one thing in mind!!!
The style of deep rolling baseline's, driving techie percussion and exotic chaotic sounds plays on the senses and introduces the mind to new planes of existence making Contineum a name to look out for.
Check out the SoundCloud or the Facebook pages to keep up to date with releases or to find out when they'll be at a party near you.
Party like you mean it.

    Our third Dj Svess this will be the show's very rare moment of a chillout mix.But I really enjoyed it so put it on the show hope you guy's also enjoy.

    Sophia came to London in 2003 and very soon after arriving she was taken to her first underground Psy-Trance party. That's when her love for psy-trance began.
    As she went to more parties and heard different styles her taste started becoming more and more defined. In 2005 she heard a progressive psy-trance set by Bedouin and she instantly knew that this was her preferred sound.
    As she went to more parties and heard different styles her taste started becoming more and more defined. In 2005 she heard a progressive psy-trance set by Bedouin and she instantly knew that this was her preferred sound.
    As her passion for progressive trance grew stronger so did also her desire to learn how to mix.
    • In 2010 she played her first gig at Cosmo festival, alongside Bedouin as their new tribal progressive b2b duo "Bedders and Svess".
      The duo has played at parties and festivals such as; Acid Monkey, Omnicience, Planet Bob, the Gooseberry Tree and Waveform.
      Now she is setting off on her own solo progressive journey. Svess sets can be described as energetic, deep, clean and melodic with some tribal influences. Every track in her set has been carefully picked and she's always on the search for that next unique track!
      Svess also has a passion for chill out and her chill out sets will take you on a journey through soothing, deep, groovy and upbeat rythms
