Planet B.E.N. records presents its latest compilation Area 51.

Melodicly shifting psy sounds melt into pumping dance beats guiding the crowd on the dance floor deep into the most positive feelings - into trance. The sound of this unique collection is reflecting different shades of psychedelic progressive trance, ranging from Liquid Soul playing with a little pop appeal in their sounds up to an intense trippy trance hymn done by Sonus - showing again what a great musician he is.

While N.O.K., aka Planet B.E.N. Records label DJ Alex from Hamburg, creates excitement by shaping a progressive tune in a typical full on track's structure. Symphonix demonstrate their feeling for melodic groove that gets their live act more and more attention these days. There are famous artists involved such as Sangeet (aka Defolder) and Mapusa Mapusa (Fusi Johnson with Fabio) and there also are promising new projects such as Ski Fi, side project of Xibalba, Suntree or FM.

Well worth a listen.

Alchemy records presents a unique offering for the end of this month. Mixed emotions and psychedelic sounds from a great stable of psytrance artists.

Fresh psytrance, just like your mushrooms always should be.

Octava records are inviting the global community to a voyage into blasting cosmic madness. This DVD release is celebrating three years of an unforgetable festival that has connected more than 30.000 people from around the globe.

A documentary about the only Hellenic dance festival that gathered people from over 80 countries worldwide and placed the festival scene in Hellas into the international map of dance music festivals.

A masterpiece of psytrance history including more than 150 musicians of the global electronic music culture. After many years of progress and experimentation we present:

'Samothraki Dance Festival 2001-2002-2003 Voyage'

A celebration DVD not to be missed. Three years of a mindblowing festival experience.

Ultra Groove records presents their Groove-ON compilation Electric Juice.

Some big names are contributing some big tracks here. Eli, Digital Number, Aki, Vector, Species, Dino Psaras, Etnica, Tim Schouldt and Pion get together for an explosive psytrance compilation.

Well worth a listen.

Etnica.net present Explorer, a new compilation from well established artists in the psychedelic trance scene. From the start of this comp Pleiadians storm the dancefloor with 7 Days a remix on Xerox, Chakra and Illumination.

Species, Compressor VS Hyperion, Strider VS B.L.C., Predators, Pan, Biotonic and Unison feat Filteria do a great job in keeping the rythms tight and the tension high.

But for once more mega-trancers Etnica steal the show with the stormer Monolith. The track is a mix of the older Etnica style and fuller percussion that results yet again in a classic trance anthem. Bordering on euro-trance the track can be played in the middle of the night or in the morning and has all the elements that got most people in this scene.

Etnica do it again!

Waiting is over. The new G.M.S. album Emergency Broadcast System is out!

This is a production monster with crystal clear sound and a slight change of direction for the Ibiza psytrance residents. This is different, cutting-edge sound and an album that you will listen across dancefloors all over the world again and again...

What do you mean you haven't bought it yet?
