Darkpsy enthusiasts are familiar with Yoshua’s style: a distinct kick drum and detailed sound design that brings back memories of horrorplace. This is my favorite track from Yoshua yet. Because the track does not use leads, its raw power reminds me of the best darkpsy dancefloors I’ve been on. The quarter-note section is on another level. I can’t wait to hear it at parties in 2019.
Sectio Aurea remixing the Nommos-four psychedelic minds. The original was made in Goa for Eight Finger Eddie’s 80th birthday. It’s fitting that Sectio Aurea did the remix, as they are one of the only artists capable of infusing their tracks with the emotion necessary to honor the late Eddie. But they take the original’s straightforward groove and turn it into a powerful experimental track. For me, this is as good as it gets. Take the train to nirvana station.
Groovality’s soundcloud is full of truly experimental psytrance. His tracks demonstrate what can happen when producers showcase their passion for sound and music instead of genre norms. On my favorite track from his new EP, he has an incredible cinematic ambient intro, followed by super high bpm psytrance that has a slow half or even quarter time feel. Another artist I can’t wait to hear more of.
Looking forward to a great 2019!
