Battle of the Future Buddhas and Ka-Sol have teamed up for their third album, Masters of Outhouse! First appearing in 1997, the legendary Buddhas broke into new territory with their distinct and hypnotic sound which was to become known as the Uppsala sound. Their debut album, Twin Sharkfins, surfaced on the market in 1998 and was followed by Demonoizer four years later, landing the group a position on the frontline of psytrance while establishing the label Schlabbaduerst Rekkords, whose limited output is treasured today by record collectors. Quickly becoming renowned for his stylistic versatility, Ka-Sol had his first release in 1998. Over the years he has managed to put out two full-length albums, Fairytale and Ghost Story in 2006 and 2008 respectively, and more than twenty mossy tracks rich in woodland air have come out on various compilations. Masters of Outhouse comprises 9 tracks – the two projects showcasing four tracks each and one joint venture – all floydishly illustrated. Support the musicians that you like, support years of ardent work – buy originals! The exact date of release will be announced soon!

Mastering tutorial - http://www.har-bal.com/index.php?/mastering-tutorial.php

Hey mate, I'm nowhere near fluent in Portuguese but luckily Babelfish is to some extent. I shall like to say that it's all a matter of intrinsic imperfection, for no musician is a robot. As long as musicians try to make something on the fly, manipulating the sound right there, right now, as long as they try to push the limits of what can be done live and open up for new possibilities of sound manipulation, there's always the human (and technical) factor yielding to imperfection since, again, we're no robots. I shall not go into much detail on this topic, but next time you hear something sounding out-of-key, out-of-sync, a sound seems inappropriately loud or low, why don't you recognise that it's happening right there and you're part of the experience, and be glad that whatever musician who's on the stage did that manipulation uniquely and solely for you right there, right now, on the fly.

Hey Richard, Thanks for your quick reply. you must understand that goa, it has a very solid concept of sound, instruments, composition... a total complete identity... Brilliant, Richard. I shall do my best not to sound like an elitist prick here, but I've been collecting goa trance since the mid 90s, thus I didn't pop up from under a rock in the advent of present day "darkpsy", and I know quite some other producers of "forest" (or whatever term you prefer, to me it's all a matter of redundancy) who've been part of this "scene" since the goa days. I might've misinterpreted you, but the way I conceive of the point that you're trying to make, it sounds like you were dancing while X-Dream recorded their classic The 5th Dimension in Paris in 1993 and fell in love with goa trance whereupon your strong predilection for this music made you unable to accept anything that was inspired by goa simply because it wasn't goa trance the way you conceived of it. its very good do creat new music, ist part of evolution, but you should call it new names, creat new styles... otherwise, you will be compromising the other people wich follow older concepts... and talking about goa, if we start calling "neo goa", new influences from goa, or goa to other kinds of music that had nothing about "goa concept"... then your not creating culture, you are destroing it! I shall like to think that the above is somewhat contradictory. First, you say that we shall create new styles and give them new names - it's all part of the evolution - but we musn't use terms as "neo goa" or anything that might give hints as to there being influences from goa or similar elements having been borrowed. How about some consistency? And whose concept am I destroying when I'm saying that my current music is inspired by the music that once pushed me over the edge into a sea of blissful colours 15 years ago? There's no singular thing such as the goa concept. Everyone had fun in the 90s, I promise, but everyone had his or her version of what goa was to them, the concept, the culture, the scene, which includes the music. When you get on your high horse and tell someone that this or that is truly goa, for you know what true goa trance is, you might actually be preaching to someone who also was there attending that X-Dream show in Paris in 1993. We have neo-metal, neo-punk and whatnot, so why not neo-goa? I don't really care because I'm not a fan of labelling music. Listen to it, enjoy it. If someone says he or she was inspired by goa trance, that might very well be the case. Goa was a lot more than TR-909s, out-of-sync 303s, Juno-106 basslines, Roland Space Echos, and out-of-tune analogue synhesisers... thats why i consider most of "dark" sound in nowadays similar to hard techno... because the concept is almost same! they may act in psytrance parties... they may use hippies cloths... and everthing, but it just dont fit with trance music, for what is his ideals, concepts bla bla bla I might add that "darkpsy" in general bores me to death nowadays and I'm so tired of going to parties where only "darkpsy" is being played. However, coming down on the people who like darkpsy, saying that "they" don't fit with "trance music" - I mean, come on. Who gave you the right to say who's welcome and not? They're dancing, altering states of mind, getting high on the music just like you do when you dance to goa trance. I'm sorry but I can't help but think of all the emo kids out there arguing who's the most "true" emo kid out there with the proper haircut, the cheapest shoes, the most sombre music and most scars on his or her arm. "Bullet for my Valentine" isn't true, they're not keeping it real, Joe. Linkin Park, though, they're keeping it real." Give me a break. I must say, however, that I think I understand you when it comes to ideals. When I started to go to parties everyone trekked into the forest and stayed out in the wild for at least a couple of days, like a family. Some people did the decoration, some took care of the food, some gathered wood, some made music and set up the stage - everyone pitched in to create something bigger - a community experience. People were introduced to acid as if taking it were a true ritual (which I still think it is) whereas today a lot of people take it to "have some fun on the weekend", like people usually work their asses off in the week and then get drunk out of their tits on the weekends. That's my concept of the scene. It's changed, though, and I think you agree with me in that things are different now compared to the past. The difference is that some of us have accepted the change without coming down on the new heads for not staying "true" to the scene we once knew, whereas some others have gone up on their war horse, readily giving vents to their emotions as to what's right and not. I wish I could bring back the scene of the vivid 90s, but I can't and it won't do any good telling new heads that they're destroying what I once fell in love with. We're all getting older and it sucks, but it's reality. There'll always be an influx of new heads and we can't treat them in an elitist's way, but instead try to make an example - Be the change you want to see in the world, Ghandi said. I find it difficult to believe that you were sitting by the campfire 15 years ago saying what's goa trance and not, so did you?

Hey guys and greetings from Porto, I've been following this thread for the past couple of days and could no longer bring myself to refrain from replying. There's a certain mode of thought that's evident in what some users have written here, which, as it were, holds that there's a clear cut line as to what is what. Categorising music isn't always very easy and one should be cautious in applying labels to musicians, for sometimes a musician is modulating between different genres. I've seen a few blokes here talking about my music, for instance, saying that it belongs to that sphere of music or another. For what it's worth, I find such categorisation unnecessary and quite a waste of time. Anyone who's seen me performing this year, for example, is well aware of the fact that the latter part of my set has a strong goa tranceish slant, there even being some tracks who are "pure" goa, if there ever was such a thing. Instead of saying that Joe does that kind of music and Joe doesn't, one could say that Joe's released tracks pertain to certain genres in terms of style. This might be more of a linguistic discussion, yet I believe that it's a valid point which is worth keeping in mind in discussing concepts of genre and categorisation. Moreover, an artist could be flirting stylistically with several genres, too, which is probably more de jure than de facto. Ka-Sol was mentioned as an artist whose style is easy to recognise and categorise. I must say I do wonder, however, if the person, who thinks spotting Ka-Sol's style is easy, has heard tracks such as Earth (off the Docklands - A State of Mind 2 compilation, 99) and compared that one to the melodic tracks off his first piece Fairytale? Whether or not it's easy to place these in the same pigeon hole, I leave that to you guys. Furthermore, I wonder what the people, who readily expose their firm confidence in their own ability to decide whether a track has goa influences or not, base their opinions on. For instance, demo 1 (http://www.myspace.com/kiriyamamusic) progresses in a frygic minor, the old Church mode if you will, that was extensively used and extremely common in the goa trance of the 1990s and still is today (in this case the use of C, Db, Eb [or E for variation], F, G, Ab, Bb, C). The goa influences are there to be discovered by anyone whose mind is open and who's ready to see the influences, whether that means the person has the knowledge in music theory or the ability to draw lines between similarities as to elements in two different tracks. So are you able to spot the other parts on my MySpace that might've been influenced by goa trance? Goa trance comprises much more than Astral Projection. The ones who were there will know. They will be able to feel the energy, the vibes. The others who were content with just buying the greatest hits compilations, let them believe whatever they want... That being said, not all producers got into this scene just last year even though their style might be perceived as that of a modern producer. See you guys on the dancefloor tonight!

INPSYDE MEDIA is back ! ------------------------------------ Cat.n° : Ime013 Artist : Various Artists Title : "Libération animale" Format : digipack CD Barcode : 8020167543754 Mastering : Xenomorph Artwork : Valentino Tencev / Inpsyde media Release date : Summer 2009 Manufactured from recycled and recyclable/compostable material using all natural inks and glues, all completely carbon neutral. Tracklist: 01. KLUSTER - Bunker Mode 02. BLOOMEN - Blink 03. THE GROBIANS – Flatulent Swamp 04. KA-SOL - Coudy 05. PROCS - Coffin Kick 06. TAIGAN SUN - Barbro 07. ATTOYA - Paradise Found 08. TRASKEL- Alien Elbow 09. ZOON - Owls in the Moss 10. MONEY CANNOT BE EATEN - Bird Flu Helpline Compiled by : Kiriyama Audio samples : http://www.reverbnation.com/tunepak/1483737 Libération Animale is a story about animals, earth and unnecessary suffering. It is an attempt to shed light upon the everyday suffering of billions of living beings, a suffering on which we rarely reflect. Leo Tolstoj once wrote that a man can live and be healthy without killing animals for food; therefore, if he eats meat, he participates in taking animal life merely for the sake of his appetite. Hence, the message of Libération Animale is that we are all equal, no one more worthy than the other. The story starts out with Kluster and Bloomen whose tunes are somewhat slower and minimalistic with squeaky, trippy sounds. The introduction is followed by The Grobians’ hypnotic beats and goa tranceish melodies and grand bombastic Scandotrance à Ka-Sol. After that, it is time for Procsish basslines, prolonging the previous dancefloor hypnotism. Taigan Sun’s contribution is what you can expect from an up-and-coming producer from Sweden, modulating between being funky and driving, soaked in prominent mind-bending elements. Known for their fine forest trance, Attoya, Traskel, and Zoon increase the intensity of the story, hovering between different types of abstraction, speed, and moods The story ends on a positive note yet still intense with Money Cannot Be Eaten’s Schlabbaduerstic hangover tune. The music is at the centre of attention and we do not demand that everyone be vegans, even though we wish that would be the case. What we do wish, however, is that everyone out there will reflect on his or her way of life and how it affects all living beings with whom we share this planet. Unnecessary suffering can be avoided and it is not too late for change and compassion! ********************************* www.inpsyde-media.com Trance Mission Worldwide

Yeha! Superbock and the best espresso in the world here I come!! Porto rocks! See you on the dancefloor!

It's going to be absolutely wicked. Portugal rocks!

Hey mates! As my Portuguese isn't that good (at least I know "obrigado" and something of which I am not too sure of the spelling: charro (?) ), I hope it is OK with you guys if I post in English. I tried to use Altavista's Babelfish to translate what has been written on these two pages, yet the translation wasn't perfect but I think I got an idea of what has been written... Thanks a lot for the nice words! I'm glad you guys had fun at the party because I know I had. The party was great and everyone whose acquaintance I got the pleasure to make was so friendly! Portugal rocks! I felt as though I were home: so relaxed, lovely coffee and awesome people. Thanks to everyone who helped make my weekend so nice and joyful! I wish I could've stayed longer. You guys ROCK! All the best to you from Örebroooooooo! BoOm! kiri
