THE LAST MUSHROOM
It‘s been 20 years.
It‘s been a terrific time.
It‘s been a difficult time.
It‘s been fun.
It‘s been a struggle.
It‘s been long enough.
It‘s time to move on.
This is the end
of mushroom magazine.
Es waren 20 Jahre.
Es war eine tolle Zeit. – Es war eine schwierige Zeit.
Es war Spaß. – Es war Kampf.
Es war lang genug. – Es ist an der Zeit für was Neues.
Dies ist das Ende des mushroom magazine.

RELAUNCH
15:
mushroom relaunch in 20
double size format
fresh content concept
new reading experience
It‘s not all peaches and cream
in this world: Organisms are
genetically modified, the oceans are overfished, and bees
disappear. Not good at all.
But hey: We are also fed up
with the „It‘s all going down
the tubes“ talk out there.
Because it isn‘t. Think about
all the amazing festivals
we‘ve seen this summer, think
about the amount of fantastic
music, arts and intellectual
ideas around us. Sure, 10
years ago the scene has been
blooming and booming, as
well. However, it‘s never been
as colourful as today. That‘s
why we will crank up the
music even louder, why we
will party even harder.
First of all, mushroom will
grow from A6 to A5 format.
That‘s double the size, and
that means twice as much
space for new ideas and fresh
content, for inspiration and
entertainment.
We clearly understand that
Social Media has profoundly
changed the way in which we
perceive information. We will
adapt to this change - by keeping up our intense online activity, but also by introducing
new forms of content and a
new reading experience. At
the same time we don‘t want
to produce a print-out version
of Facebook. No, we want to
focus on the qualities that
still make a printed magazine
one-of-a-kind.
Adapting to the multidimensional beauty our scene has
grown into, we also want to
introduce and expand new
fields of interest. Spirituality,
sustainability and scene activism are just some keywords.
Enjoy your last mushroom...
and be prepared for the allnew experience.
Mat Mushroom is relaunching mushroom magazine
This is the end of
mushroom magazine
as you know it !
But whats comes next?
Es ist nicht alles Friede,
Freude, Eierkuchen da
draußen: Pflanzen und
Tiere werden genetisch
modifiziert, die Ozeane
überfischt und die
Bienen verschwinden.
Sehr unschön. Aber wir
haben die Schnauze auch
voll von dem ewigen
„Es geht alles den Bach
runter“ Gerede. Denn
es stimmt einfach nicht.
Denk an all die großartigen Festivals, die wir
diesen Sommer wieder
erleben durften, denk
an all die fantastische
Musik, die Kunst und die
neuen Ideen, die um uns
herum schwirren. Klar,
vor 10 Jahren hat die
Szene auch schon prächtig geblüht – aber nie
so bunt wie heute. Aus
diesem Grund drehen wir
die Musik noch lauter
auf, geben wir noch
mehr Gas.
Der mushroom wird
vom A6 zum A5 Format
RELAUNCH
wachsen. Das ist doppelt
so groß, also doppelt so
viel Platz für neue Ideen
und frische Inhalte, für
Inspiration und Unterhaltung.
Wir sehen ganz klar,
wie Social Media unser
Leseverhalten und unsere
Aufmerksamkeit grundlegend verändert hat. Wir
werden uns an diesen
Wandel anpassen – indem wir unsere intensive
Online-Präsenz ausbauen, aber auch indem wir
neue Darstellungsformen
und Inhalte einführen.
Andererseits wollen nicht
einfach eine gedruckte
Version von Facebook
rausbringen, sondern
uns wieder verstärkt auf
das konzentrieren, was
ein gedrucktes Magazin
immer noch einzigartig
macht.
Die vielschichtige
Weiterentwicklung, die
unsere Szene in den
letzten Jahren durchlaufen hat, möchten wir
durch neue Rubriken
und Schwerpunkte
repräsentieren. Spiritualität, Nachhaltigkeit und
Szene-Aktivismus sind
nur ein paar Stichworte.
Genieß deinen letzten
mushroom – und sei
gefasst auf ein neues
Leseerlebnis.

TRANCERS GUIDE
A bird’s eye view of the Trance landscape
Every year the mushroom releases the
“Trancer’s Guide to the Galaxy” giving
you the chance to highlight the distinct
flavour of the scene in your region.
Jedes Jahr veröffentlicht der mushroom
den “Trancer’s Guide to the Galaxy” und
gibt euch die Chance die spezielle Note
der Szene in eurer Region hervorzuheben.
A country’s Psy-scene invariably has
its own unique set of signature
elements that defines the mode
of artistic expression, as
well as the nature of the
festivals. Globally there’s
been a definite rise of the
‘old school’ sounds, it’s
clear that the tastes of
the trancers are shifting,
drifting back towards the
root-notes of Psytrance, and
leaning in favour of the archetypal retro and Goa sounds. This
comes as positive news, for there
have been tonnes of talk bemoaning the
dilution of the classic ‘trance-magic’ in some of
the scene’s more contemporary music. However,
whether retrodelic or new-age, since this is a
rather personal choice, the point of significance
is that the popularity of Psytrance is flying high.
Die Psyszene eines Landes weist unausweichlich ihre eigenen einzigartigen
Elemente auf, die die Art des
künstlerischen Ausdrucks sowie der Festivals ausmachen.
Global betrachtet gibt es
einen definitiven Anstieg
des ‘Old School’ Sounds. Es
ist klar, dass die Geschmäcker der Trancers sich
verschieben, zurück zu den
Wurzelnoten des Psytrance,
mit einer leichten Tendenz
zu archetypischen Retro- und
Goaklängen. Dies erscheint wie
gutes Ding, da es massenweise Klagen
über die Verwässerung der klassischen ‘Trance
Magie’ in der zeitgenössischen Szenemusik gibt.
Doch das Bedeutende dahinter, ob nun Retro oder
New Age, zumal dies recht persönlich geprägt ist:
die Popularität des Psytrance kreist weit oben.
The next edition of the Guide will be out in
early Spring 2015, to ensure that your country’s
psy-culture is included, submit a report at the
mushroom website: www.mushroom-magazine.

Israel Recalls Retro and Goa
The Israeli scene is still going
strong and you can find a
party somewhere around
the country almost every day
except for sundays. But the
winds of change are felt both
music and event wise, as in
the last year Goa, retro and
even the infamous ‚Nitzhonot‘
genre took a steady rise.
Ironically as the younger
generation starts visiting the
parties, their taste goes further
and further back in time. Underground parties, while rare,
still exist, but big raves from
teams such as Groove attack,
Moksha, Unity, Doof & Paganka dominate the weekends,
with thousands of followers. In
the end of the day Psytrance is
still the leading sound of electronic music in Israel, and an
international trance traveller
will not be disappointed while
looking for a local party.

Brazilian Summers:
Nature and Psychedelic Trance
Brazil is the place where you can
listen to good music and be in
touch with nature at the same
time! We have beautiful beaches,
waterfalls and rivers. Universo
Paralello is the best time to be
here, since it’s one of Brazil’s
biggest festivals which takes
place once every two years! You
will find a beautiful beach in
Bahia, a lot of different people
and culture, and a variety of
music styles: Psychedelic Trance,
Goa Trance, Progressive Trance,
Progressive Dark Trance, Dark
Psychedelic Trance, Chill Out,
Reggae Music, etc. It’s one
amazing experience that all true
psychedelic lovers should have!
Another festival that occurs once
in two years is Terra em Transe,
at Bahia. The main music style is
Goa Trance and Psychedelic Trance. Bahia is the best place at this
time! Carnaval is another great
time to be here. The best-known
festival at this time is Soulvision
Festival, in São Paulo. Brazil is
like a forever endless summer.
Besides great festivals the entire
year, we have great producers
that are playing at the best
festivals and making music with
the great producers worldwide.
We are living a good moment in
the Psychedelic Trance scene!

Psytrance labels, websites and
magazines)

TRANCERS GUIDE
A particular Psy-spirit in India
Today Goa is a little different
from what it used to be, more
commercial but still really nice.
Hill Top has been there for
years . Goa is party life, you’ll
find trance parties everywhere,
almost every day. A lot of
international artists go to play
in beautiful Goa, there is a
special magic in the air, and
a strong energy. Besides Goa,
these days trance parties and
festivals take place all over
India, cities like Mumbai, Delhi,
Bangalore, and Pune host great
parties. The festivals in the
Himalaya mountains are not to
be missed. The Dream Bubble
3.0 is coming up in November
at Westend Goa in Nov 2014,
then there’s Psykovsky in
Mumbai in November. Indian
people are really psychedelic in
their minds, and with regards
to the trance scene India is a
very open country.

The Magic of Italy
When Sonica Festival took
place for the first time in 2005
on Bolsena Lake, the Italian
Psytrance movement was still in
its early stages. The old Italian
trancers were mostly travelling
abroad and attending psychedelic events in other countries
or continents, but the Sonica
Festival became a landmark for
the trance culture in Italy, giving
birth to several other festivals.
The Human Evolution Festival
Festival in Tuscany region and
Black Moon in Marche region,
are now trying to reach an international audience, involving ar-
tists from the main international
scene and creating now a strong
competition within the national
borders. As of now the Italian
Psytrance movement appears to
be well-established.

ROBERDO ASKS
Roberdo asks:
Can you please
put away your camera?
Day 3. The sun is hot, and so is the sound. Between the sets of Ace Ventura and Tristan there‘s
a short layover at a lecture about the general
loss of individual freedom. A really bad thing,
as the audience agrees with affirmative nods.
However, a few minutes later the very same
audience doesn‘t care at all about the various
observation drones which circle the sky above
the festival. Also the constant presence of a
multitude of ridiculously expensive zoom lenses
and cameras seems to be the most natural thing
in the world.
If you want to engage in
some real trance dance today,
if you want to dance as if
nobody‘s watching, you have
to take into account that you
might be filmed while doing
so and that this footage
might be part of an “After
Movie” a few weeks later.
But hey, it‘s beautiful pictures
and emotions. If you hit it
really hard, there‘s always a
chance that some idiot from
your camp takes a picture of
you being shitfaced and puts
it on Facebook. You might
not even know about that
picture. Is that still individual
freedom, and isn‘t individual
freedom what our festivals
are all about?
Many clubs in Berlin have a far
better policy. Cameras are strictly
prohibited. If you are caught taking
pictures with your smartphone
you‘ll be kicked out and won‘t get
in any more. „What happens in
Berghain, remains in Berghain“
as a popular saying about one of
the most popular venues goes. The
Psytrance scene could take one or
two pages from that book. As a
matter of fact, some smaller events
have already done so and banned
cameras from their dance floors.
Being an avid photographer
myself I perfectly understand the
fascination of taking pictures.
However, when it comes to party
photography I think there‘s all too
often a lack of respect towards
human dignity. Or, rather: A lack of
respect towards those moments of
uttermost bliss when a human may
temporarily lose his or her dignity
– without any consequences for
the future.
All well and good, but in times of
the creative inflation this subject
is kind tricky. Everybody‘s a
photographer, everybody‘s a film
maker today – and that‘s why
everybody needs an audience. An
experience that doesn‘t include
a picture on Facebook is only
half as exciting, isn‘t it? I guess
what we need first is that shift in
human consciousness so many
people talk about at the moment.

Roberdo fragt sich:
Kannste die Kamera nicht
mal stecken lassen?
Tag 3. Die Sonne brennt, der Sound drückt.
Zwischen Ace Ventura und Tristan wird nochmal
schnell ein Vortrag über den allgemeinen Verlust
der individuellen Freiheit angehört. Ganz üble
Nummer, befindet das Publikum mit kopfnickender
Zustimmung. Dem gleichen Publikum ist es wenige
Minuten später aber vollkommen egal, dass über
seinen Köpfen diverse Beobachtungsdrohnen kreisen. Und auch die Tatsache, dass in allen 4 Himmelsrichtungen dreadgelockte Piraten-Verschnitte
mit sündhaft teuren Zoom-Objektiven auf der Lauer
liegen, scheint das normalste der Welt zu sein.
Wer heutzutage mal wieder so
richtig Trance tanzt, also so als
würde niemand zuschauen, wird
in seiner entrückten Ekstase
womöglich gefilmt und ist ein
paar Wochen später in einem
„After Movie“ auf YouTube zu
sehen. Ist ja auch voll schön
und emotional und so. Und wer
sich zur Abwechslung mal einen
gediegenen Abschuss genehmigt
läuft Gefahr, dass seine Gesichtsentgleisungen von irgendeinem
Hoschi im Camp fotografiert und
auf Facebook präsentiert werden.
Womöglich kriegt die betroffene
Person das nicht mal mit. Können
wir da noch von individueller
Freiheit reden? Und soll nicht
genau die zelebriert werden auf
unseren Festivals?
In vielen Berliner Clubs ist das wesentlich besser geregelt. Denn dort
herrscht striktes Kamera-Verbot.
Wer beim Knippsen mit seinem
Smartphone erwischt wird, fliegt
raus und kommt so schnell auch
nicht wieder rein in den Laden.
„Was im Berghain passiert, bleibt
im Berghain“ – so ein beliebter
Spruch. Da könnte sich die
Psytrance Szene mal eine Scheibe
abschneiden. Oder auch zwei. Ein
paar kleinere Events haben das
tatsächlich schon getan und zumindest im Bereich der Tanzfläche
ein Kamera-Verbot verhängt.
Als leidenschaftlicher
Hobby-Fotograf habe ich vollstes
Verständnis für die Begeisterung,
die im Zusammenhang mit
Kameras aufkommen kann. Was
ich im Party-Kontext allerdings
vermisse, ist eine gewisse
Sensibilität gegenüber der Würde
des Menschen. Besser gesagt:
Eine Sensibilität gegenüber den
glückseeligen Momenten, in
denen ein Mensch seine Würde
auch mal ablegen kann – ohne
Konsequenzen zu fürchten.
Klar, im Zuge der kreativen Inflation
ist das natürlich schwierig. Denn
heute ist halt jeder ein Fotograf,
jeder ein Filmemacher- und jeder
braucht ein Publikum. Überhaupt:
Ein Erlebnis ohne Foto davon auf
Facebook ist doch nur halb so
intensiv. Was wir hier zuerst mal
brauchen, ist jene Bewusstseinswende, von der überall zu hören ist.

CELLOTAGER
Cellotager and the mandibles
story & pictures: Andrey Balandin • colorization: Linda Schwarz
http://balandin.gallery.ru
In one sleepless night the
Cellotager could not go to
sleep in his comfy thatched
hut. He turned and turned
and decided to smoke his
„magic“ cigarette in order
to go to sleep. And while he
was smoking he switched
on his satellite-television
which had a programme by
National Geographic about
stag beetles. The mighty
horns of the South-American
insects appealed to him so
much, that he took out his
„magic“ pills for wishes,
spoke a secret magic spell
above them, blessed it in his
own way and manner six
times and then he swallowed
it. Happy and full of expectation he fell into a refreshing
magic and dreamless sleep.
With huge horns he woke
up. The Cellotager tested
them, pushing whatever with
the horns. He even pushed
down a fir without effort and
shoved a 6-ton-stone from
the mountain, against which
he always ran when he went
for a piss...
Thus the horns proved quite
useful at home! But our poor
Cellotager had not watched
the show till its end. Because
there it was also told that
they were not real horns
growing on the head. These
CELLOTAGER
strongly developed mandibles
– upper jaws equipped with
humps and notches served
instead in courtship displays
with competitors for approaching the female beetles.
While trying to breakfast it
became finally clear to Cellotager that one could not eat
porridge but only drink and
that again only drop-by drop
and with large difficulties.
Therefore he took out his
magic wonder pills again
and wanted to whisper the
magic spell above it. But
he could not because with
such a jaw one cannot even
13
stutter. Damn......What
should he do?
What to do?
But then came
his neighbour
(they were to
meet to go to the
local shop in the
morning, in order
to buy cornbread
with cheese and
grains). He spoke a
„magic“ spell above the
new growth and everything
fell off immediately...Now the
freed and happy Cellotager
understood, that not all that
glitters is gold.“!!!
Cellotager und die Mandibeln
In einer schlaflosen Nacht
konnte der Cellotager nicht einschlafen in seiner gemütlichen
Strohhütte. Er drehte und wendete sich und beschloss, eine
„magische“ Zigarette zum Einschlafen zu rauchen. Während
er rauchte, schaltete er sein
Satelliten-Fernsehen an. Dort
lief bei National Geographic ein
Programm über Hirschkäfer. Die
mächtigen Hörner südamerikanischer Insekten gefielen ihm so
sehr, dass er seine „magische“
Tablette für Wunscherfüllungen
herausnahm, einen geheimen
Zauberspruch sprach, sie auf
eigene Art und Weise sechsfach
segnete und dann schluckte.
Glücklich und erwartungsvoll
fiel er in einen gesunden, „magischen“ Schlaf ohne Träume.
Mit riesigen Hörnern wacht er
auf. Der Cellotager testete sie,
stiess alles Mögliche mit den
Hörnern, stürzte sogar eine Tanne ohne Anstrengung um und
schubste einen 6-Tonnen-Stein
vom Berg hinunter, gegen den
er sonst immer stolperte, wenn
er pinkeln ging...
So erwiesen sich die Hörner als
eine nützliche Sache im Haushalt! Nur hatte unser armer
Cellotagerchen die Sendung
nicht bis zum Ende gesehen.
Dort wurde nämlich noch
erzählt, dass es keine wirklichen
Hörner waren, die auf dem
Kopf wachsen. Diese stark
entwickelten Mandibeln – Oberkiefer versehen mit Auswüchsen
und Kerben, dienten vielmehr
für Balztänze mit Konkurrenten
zum Anmachen der weiblichen
Käfer. Beim Frühstücksversuch
wurde Cellotager endgültig klar,
dass man mit einem solchen
Oberkiefer keinen Brei essen,
sondern nur trinken konnte und
das auch nur tröpfchenweise
mit größten Schwierigkeiten.
Deshalb nahm er sein
magisches Wundertablettchen
wieder heraus und wollte
den magischen Zauberspruch
flüstern, konnte aber nicht,
denn mit solch einem Kiefer
kann man nicht einmal stottern.
Verflucht. Was sollte er
machen? Was tun? Aber da kam
sein Nachbar (sie waren verabredet, morgens zum örtlichen
Einzelhändler zu gehen, um
Maisbrot mit Käse und Körnern
zu kaufen). Dieser sprach einen
„magischen“ Spruch über der
„Neubildung“ und alles fiel
sofort ab. Da verstand der befreite und glückliche Cellotager,
dass „nicht alles Gold ist, was
glänzt“!!!

what the Kiwi producer delivered at Boom’s Chill Out Gardens this

trippy sample cascades, ethereal ethno sounds, even the voice of

Switching to 3D Mode this winter
The label owner of Digital Nature Records told
us about some hot newcomers to watch out for
this winter, about his musical projects and about
forthcoming releases.
What else is going on at
your label, Digital Nature?
Digital Nature is busy as never
before, I’m happy to say so. We
just released a few good digital
EPs by Quantanoize, D Twin, 3D
Mode and Lupin, and new ones
from Aerospace and Etic coming
very soon! In 2015 We plan to
make Digital Nature Festival
which will push the label artists
and name forward.
Etic
facebook.com/Etic.Dsolve
www.digitalnature.info
What are you up to this
winter?
I have upcoming shows in Europe.
And studio-wise?
I will present my new collaboration project: 3D Mode,. It’s a
strong and fat Progressive sound
at 138 BPM, and it’s already
tested successfully on different
stages worldwide. The 3D Mode
debut EP, Re:Bounce, was just
released in May 2014 . I also
have some brand new Etic tracks
and a Remix to Atomos which
will be release in November.
You are the owner of
Digital Nature Records
- Please tell us about an
exciting newcomer artist
this summer, and why he is
exciting!
I must say there’s more than
only one! I am super excited
about the new sound from
Shanko, and 3D Mode. It’s a
fresh, smashing and unique
sound that’s just like nothing
else out there, and I love to
play it and to see the dance
floor reactions.
Etic, vielen von euch auch wegen
seines Labels Digital Nature Records
bekannt, schaltet diesen Sommer
in den 3D Mode um. Unter diesem
Projektnamen macht er neuerdings
nämlich mit Sonic Sense gemeinsame Sache. So zu hören auf einer
ersten EP, die im Mai erschienen
ist: Hochprozentiger auf-die-12
Progressive Sound mit etwa 138
Einschlägen pro Minute, absolut
Spitzenzeit-taugliches Material. Sein
Label ist aktiv wie eh und je, gerade
erst kam das 5. Aerospace Album auf
CD heraus, außerdem ein weiterer
Silberling, auf dem eine Compilation
von Sonic Sense gebannt ist. In den
letzten Wochen und Monaten kamen
auf Digital Nature Records EPs von
u.a. Quantanoize, D Twin, 3D Mode
an Lupin, Human Reaction und
Monolock raus.

Hamish
Speaking as a music
connoisseur: What have
been your most amazing
discoveries this summer?
Well, Noisily Festival in the
UK was a huge discovery!
We’ve been waiting for a new
electronic festival focused on
the psychedelic side and these
guys have really delivered.
Set in a beautiful location it is
a really well designed event
with some fantastic people
behind it. So much fun! Also
two new artists have really
delivered for me this summer - Daydreamer and 0db.
Psychedelic Progressive at its
very best. You will be hearing
these guys around a lot in
the future.
And as a common party
animal? Any highlights this
summer?
Absolutely. Boom Festival for
one… Beautiful location, great
production, it was great to be
back there. At Fusion Festival
I was honoured with a 3 hour
set which I loved. It allowed me
to mix old and new tracks and
styles, to feel what the dancefloor was wanting, and deliver.
And lastly, this summer was
the first time I have used only
a USB key for my sets. Leaving
my CD case at home was a very
scary thing to do, I felt naked
without it the first time! Being
able to carry all of my music in
my pocket is such a revelation...
your always ready!

A chat with a sophisticated party animal
There‘s those guys who somehow got bored of the
game and who hide in the hotel after their gig. And
there‘s those guys who go bananas like a teenager even
after years of touring. Hamish, head honcho of UK‘s
finest Further Progressions is one of the latter ones.
What’s cracking at your
label, Furthur Progrssions?
Obviously the summer was outdoor time. Our next release will
be coming in November, with
the debut EP ‘Alpha State’ from
Daydreamer. Following that
we will be releasing Volume 2
of London Landscapes, which
was the first release on Furthur
Progressions. We have been
working on this for a while and
I am really excited about the
artists we have involved, it’s
going to be a special one!

It‘s once again the time of Goa Trance
He‘s taking the globetrotter aspect of being a DJ
quite serious – and that‘s only the peak of the
iceberg, as Boom Shankar is quite a busy fellow
behind the scenes, as well.

Boom Shankar
Gaia Sunshine
There‘s many factors that distinguish the Trance scene from any
other electronic music genre, but
the probably most characteristic
one is its internationality and
its love for travelling. DJ Boom
Shankar is a perfect example:
From the jungle of Koh Phan
Gan to pine forests in Spain,
from Morocco to the USA, from
underground raves in Israel to
major festivals all over Europe
– this guy has been playing
everywhere this year. If you were
there during his epic Old School /
New School Set at S.U.N.rise, you
might have an idea what makes
the head of BMSS Records
so popular, namely a deeply
psychedelic style that crosses
bridges between the past and
the future. „This new Future
Retro sound is becoming more
and more popular as it unites the
generations, it makes newbies
listen to ancient melodies and
brings the old generation back to
the dance floor. It‘s once again
the time of Goa Trance, just in a
much better production quality“
the German artist comments on
his own style, and adds: „My
next CD compilation will feature
exactly this, from remixes of new
producers to old school classics.“
Besides being a co-promoter of
S.U.N. Festival and Transition Festival, Boom Shankar is also busy
with his project Lightsource, an
EP including remixes and collabs
with Etnica, Suduaya, Cimi and
more is about to be launched.
Speaking of, his label BMSS has
a solid number of releases in the
pipeline, the albums by PsiloCybian or Lupin or a compilations
by Tsubi and Gabi just being
some highlights.

When earth meets the sun,
the result is an explosion of
beauty, energy, and of course
Gaia Sunshine! The act was
born with a big-bang when
Mama Gaia (Ylva Ek) and
Emelie Sunshine (Emelie
Dsilna) merged forces in 2012.
Mama Gaia began Djing
from 2005, whereas Emelie
Sunshine started in 2011, both
were close friends and their
common passion for psy-prog
turned them into a superinsane act.
Their gig-list comprises of
impressive venues like Tree of
Life Fesival Turkey, Earthdance
Switzerland, Evigheten Festival,
Genesis and Freakplanet
Mushroom Tour. The progtrance DJanes from Stockholm,
Sweden are setting the dance
floors ablaze with their powerful and brilliant sets. Catch
their shows for a solid dose of
pure ecstasy.

Omsphere
The project Omsphere is
only your latest musical
offspring, isn‘t it?
It all happened while touring
South Africa as Journey and Jay
OM in 2009. At the time I was
working on my second Journey
album but had started making
some loops and music that
I wouldn‘t normally do with
Journey. Before I knew it I had
finished a whole load of tracks,
enough material to perform
Omsphere live for the first time.
So I began releasing tracks here
and there on compilations and
EP‘s. These days you will often
find me performing more than
once at events as Omsphere and
Journey... and as Sonic Wave
Control.
Your highlights of 2014,
music-wise?
Here I have to put on my FreeSpirit label manager hat and say
that I am most proud of FreeSpirit‘s label artist Twelve Sessions aka Pedro Thiel from Brasil. I
first met met Pedro 6 years ago

Journey, Omsphere, Sonic Wave Control, Free-Spirit

we got him for an interview about his various
projects and some highlights of the year 2014.
Dual Effect
coming release is Twelve Sessions

the Omsphere side, I am proud to

Records in November!
Please complete this sentence: My personal highlight
of 2014 was...
...finishing my first Omsphere album K‘ag Bak‘tun, which means
the new era in Mayan language.
The album took me two years to
complete with most of the ideas
coming from inspiration during
my travels. It is something I am
really proud of!

ART SPECIAL
Azuldecobalt
His artist name means “cobalt blue”. However, his pictures are extremely
intricate arrangements of all colours of the rainbow. Meet our cover artist.
What‘s your background? Any
Psytrance connection at all?
Today I like the Berlin Deep House scene, but
i‘m also deeply into Hip Hop and Rap culture
because of my street art background and
connections. But when I was at university we
organized some Psytrance parties. I learned
to make live visuals in this
period and did lots of decorations and backdrops for
festivals. Nowadays, I can‘t
say i‘m deeply into Psy culture – also because I‘m not
the festival-goer any more. If
that changes, I will be in first
in the line again because
i really liked dancing in
nature and the strong
and fast Psytrance vibe!
The difference to Berlin
is probably the comfort
of Psy culture: I don‘t
remember any prejudgement or negative vibes
like I get it sometimes
from the Berlin Hipster community.
Do you also work digitally? That‘s the
big thing at the moment, isn‘t it?
Yes, I work also digitally sometimes - mainly
for commission works because some projects
just fit for digital colouring and there is no
sense to work with traditional techniques. But
if I work for myself I always prefer analogue
mediums. First of all, analogue always gives
you a chance to make something unique. I really like to discover something new when I’m
working spontaneously, it’s kind of discovering
my inner self and to fill it with some colour
pigments.
What are you excited about at the
moment?
These days I‘m working on the foundation of
a new artist collective. I already collaborated
with some other artist crews here in Berlin
and in other countries, but I feel like now is
the time to create my own collective and to
organize some art events without the filter
or the expectations of other people. I already
created a main concept and started to get in
touch with lots of artists. If everything goes
well, 9th January will be the first event at
Urbanspree, Berlin. Also I have 2 more exhibitions next week and I’m on some interesting
commission works, but I‘m most excited about
the collective thing!

PARTY FEATURE
Psychedelic Carnival
08.11.2014 – Zurich, Switzerland
Full psychedelic party pleasure with lots of specials including the comfy package
– option (room, breakfast and party)! We had a chat with the promoters.
Psychedelic Carnival… so it’s
all about masks?
Our first party at X-Tra club was held
on 11.11., the official beginning of
carnival, that‘s how we came up with
the name. Contrary to a traditional
carnival event, our motto is: Masks
off - Just be you and let yourself go!
Obviously this motto worked
out pretty well, it’s already
your 9th party…
Indeed, it’s great to see so many
multicoloured Trance freaks arriving
from all directions! The feedback
Pic: Psychedelic Carneval © by photographer
from visitors and artists is amazing.
It seems like we managed to bridge Psytrance scene‘s original
roots and up-to-date party pleasure. Last but not least it’s
great to see that the family vibe of our Carnival hasn’t got lost,
although the event is growing from year to year.
Can you tell us a little about the venue?
X-Tra Club is located in a classic, Bauhaus-building in the centre
Psychedelischer Karneval
of Zurich with 4 floors, so you‘ll have a very entertaining “up
im Herzen Zürichs auf 3
& down” between the different dance floors, bars and lounge

areas. There is a hotel on top of the club, people who rent a

room for the weekend will get a special discount plus free entry

for Psychedelic Carnival! During the morning hours we will offer

with an international line
up extraordinaire, including
Captain Hook (Israel), Day Din
(Germany), Lyctum (Serbia), SHX

FESTIVAL PREVIEW
Earthcore
Last year was monumental. This year will be even
more mind-blowing. The Earthcore crew is bursting
with energy – all signs point to an international
festival highlight brewing in Down Under.
“We don‘t follow rules, trends or demands.
We have over 20 years of experience and
have built a platform to deliver events that
don‘t meet the needs of the punters, we
blow them out of the water and provide
something beyond their comprehension.”
Underground
Film Festival are
involved and the
list goes on…
in hidden bunkers around town,
performers are perfecting their
shows and the site is being totally
reimagined to maximise the party
potential. Kinky Karnival is back
with a vengeance, Melbourne
having him smash the sunrise
set as Hallucinogen will be next
level. Joining Raja Ram for a
Shpongle sunset spot will also be
an unmissable spectacle. John 00
Fleming will be back in the Aussie
Pic: Earthcore © by Unknown
What are the most exciting
novelties for this edition?
This year we’re once again turning any ideas or preconceptions
that people may have on their
head. We are taking the design
and performance to places not
ever seen at an Aussie festival.
Stage construction is going on
Please tell me
about artists
you are looking forward to
as one of the promoters!
It’s hard to go past the headliners
Hallucinogen. They’re an act
that has been around for years,
who have been the heroes and
inspiration for so many artists
after them. Adding Simon Posford
to the bill was no mean feat but
bush for the first time in years,
Boris Brejcha tore apart the main
stage last year and is psyched
for another shot, prog dogs Zen
Mechanics and Ace Ventura are
teaming up under their Zentura
guise plus there are favourites
like Liquid Soul, Ticon, D-Nox &
Beckers. Musically the punters
will be in heaven.
Obviously that also includes
newcomers…
Yes! After receiving hundreds
of entries and thousands upon
thousands of listens via our
Soundcloud, the main stage DJ
and Live Act comps have been
wrapped up and the winners
announced. We have recruited
some of the best young party
crews in town to bring some of
their artists to showcase a wide
variety of styles and sounds. The
buzz is electric.
Any specials beyond the
dance floors?
At last year’s event we had a
group called Blow Me First come
out and give free breath tests
for punters on the way out of
the festival ensuring our punters
were ok to drive. Each year we
also look at ways to ensure
sustainability of the bushland we
hold our events and take pride in
a leave no trace philosophy. We
have themed camps and a huge
focus on the visual element of our
event. The market and food will
be amazing. A world class festival
experience.

Mysterious side effects of MDMA
It seems to help tinnitus sufferers
We have read about MDMAand LSD-assisted psychotherapy, ibogaine therapy and
ayahuasca treatment for
drug addiction, and medical
marijuana (http://www.maps.
org), now, tinnitus treatment
by way of using MDMA is the
next astounding news. As a
side effect of MDMA-assisted
psychotherapy numerous
tinnitus sufferers have reported
improvements. However,
naturally these reports are not
taken at face value by those
not affected. Approved studies
are called for and could in
fact be undertaken in the near
future. At a conference in New
Zealand one researcher said,
that “looking at what MDMA
did to the brain and also looking at how tinnitus worked,
it made sense that there could
be a connection”. Still, it is a
“mystery” why this is so. About
which affected people probably
could not care less.
Rätselhafte Nebenwirkung des MDMA
Es scheint gegen Tinnitus zu helfen
Wir haben über MDMA- und LSDunterstützte Psychotherapie, die
Behandlung von Drogenabhängigkeit durch Ibogain und Ayahuasca
sowie Cannabis als Medizin
gelesen (http://www.maps.org),
jetzt ist Tinnitusbehandlung durch
MDMA die nächste erstaunliche
Nachricht. Als Nebenwirkung der
MDMA-unterstützten Psychotherapie berichteten mehrere unter
Tinnitus Leidende von Verbesserungen. Doch, diese Berichte
werden von Nicht-Betroffenen
natürlich nicht geglaubt. Vielleicht
könnte der Ruf nach beglaubigten
Studien jedoch die Durchführung
solcher nach sich ziehen. Bei einer
Konferenz in Neuseeland sagte
ein Forscher, schaute man sich an,
was MDMA dem Gehirn antat und
wie Tinnitus arbeitet, dann machte
es Sinn, dass es eine Verbindung
geben könnte. Allerdings sei es ein
Rätsel warum. Betroffenen dürfte
das egal sein.

SOME GARDEN
Legal delights for psychedelic minds
Truffels are a much sought-after delicacy for
gourmets and psychonauts alike. While the former ones have to employ pigs and browse the
woods to find their object of desire, the latter
ones just have to browse the internet: Soma
Gardens is the place to be for all psychedelic
explorers.
As far as their effect
concerned, magic truffels
are very similar to magic
mushrooms. The ingestion
will provoke a dreamlike
state of mind, depending on
the variety it can be a flight
through inner space or an
extroverted adventure full
of laughters. Intense visual
effects are another thing
commonly described by
users. However, there is one
major difference to magic
mushrooms: Truffels are still
legally available. That‘s why
they can be found at Soma
Garden. Other than in the
Garden of Eden there‘s no
forbidden plants among the
vast product range.
If you are a smoker,
their resigns could be an
interesting discovery. Also
referred to as ‚legal hash‘ or
‚solids‘, products like Green
Party, Maroccan Caramello
or Revolution Afghan keep
up to their name. Another
psychelicious aspect of Soma
Garden is that you can find
some really beautiful seeds
here. Peyote, for instance
– a plant that needs no
introduction, but that surely
needs a lot of patience to
grow. Soma Garden provides
detailed instructions how
to plant your own cactuses.
Or Hawaiian woodrose
seeds, yet another heavenly
delight. Kratom, Herbal
Caps, legal highs... you name
it, they have it! Being one
of the longest-running and
most professional smart
shops on the internet, Soma
Garden offers excellent
service and even support via
Facebook and Twitter. Plus
there are always some nice
specials, so it surely never
gets boring.
www.somagarden.com
Trüffel sind Magic Mushrooms
von der Wirkung her sehr
ähnlich. Abhängig von Art
und Dosis nehmen sie dich
mit auf eine Reise durch den
inneren Kosmos oder einen
extrovertierten Film voller
Farben und Lachflashs. Einen
großen Unterschied gibt es
jedoch: Trüffel können nach
wie vor legal eingekauft werden. Deshalb sind sie auch im
umfangreichen Sortiment von
Soma Garden zu finden, denn
der professionelle Online
Smart Shop operiert natürlich
100% legal. Wenn du Raucher
bist, könnten dich die Harze
interessieren, die auch als
„Solids“ oder „Legales
Hasch“ bezeichnet werden.
Peyote- oder Hawaiianische
Holzrosen-Samen, Kratom,
Herbal Caps, Räuchermischungen... im Soma Garden
gibt’s so ziemlich alles, was
das Herz des Psychonauten
begehrt.

PARTY WISDOM
BASS is
SEXY
What is it that attracts you to the dance floor like a moth is attracted
to a flame? The colourful decoration? The sweet girls or beautiful boys?
Yes, those are important factors - but hands down: What attracts you
most to the dance floor is the sound of a big, phat bass line. The same
goes for the opposite sex, as scientists found out recently: Bass is sexy.
When we encounter an
attractive person we turn up the
bass. Men as well as women
lower their voices when talking
to somebody they perceive to
be sexy. That’s the result of a
study carried out by British and
Czech scientist. Curious detail:
Obviously men lower their voice
only when talking to a women
they find hot, whereas women
lower their voice when talking
to attractive men or when there
are other females around they
regard to be competitors.
The scientists recorded the
voices of Czech men talking to
women in their native language.
They then played these recordings to British women who
did not understand the actual
content, and asked them to rate
the voices in terms of sexiness.
What they found was that the
ladies gave much higher ratings
to the voices of those men who
talked to women they perceived
to be attractive. Obviously low
sound frequencies are a medium
of flirtation that is understood
even beyond language skills.
Was zieht dich unwillkürlich zur Tanzfläche? Die bunte Deko? Die süßen Mädels oder hübschen Jungs? Ja, das sind wichtige Faktoren. Aber
Hand aufs Herz: Was dich wirklich auf die Tanze zieht ist der Klang
einer dicken, fetten Bassline. Das gleiche gilt offenbar auch fürs andere
Geschlecht, wie Wissenschaftler kürzlich herausfanden: Bass ist sexy.
Wenn wir einer sexuell
attraktiven Person begegnen,
drehen wir unbewusst den Bass
auf. Männer wie Frauen senken
ihre Stimmen wenn sie mit
jemandem sprechen, der in ihr
Beuteraster passt. Dies ist das
Ergebnis einer britisch-tschechischen Studie. Kurioses Detail:
Offensichtlich senken Männer
ihre Stimme nur dann, wenn sie
mit einer Dame sprechen, die
sie scharf finden, wohingegen
Frauen die Tonlage ändern
wenn sie mit einem attraktiven
Mann sprechen aber auch wenn
eine weibliche Konkurrentin
zugegen ist.
Die Wissenschaftler nahmen
die Stimmen von tschechischen
Männern auf, die in ihrer
Landessprache mit Frauen
plauderten. Diese Aufnahmen
wurden dann britischen Frauen
vorgespielt. Sie wurden gebeten,
sie in Sachen Attraktivität zu
bewerten – obwohl sie den eigentlichen Inhalt nicht verstanden. Dabei fanden die Damen
besonders die Stimmen jener
Männer sexy, die mit Frauen
sprachen die sie als attraktiv
empfanden. Offensichtlich
sind niedere Klangfrequenzen
ein Flirt-Medium, das auch
jenseits von Sprachkompetenz
verstanden wird.
