AREA ONE:


ARTIFAKT(live pa and dj set)
Timecode Records - Capetown, South Africa
www.timecode.co.za/timecode.asp

A founder of Timecode Records, Matthew is without a doubt one of the most creative and dynamic contemporary psytrance producers. Although his label has been extremely influential in establishing the much-loved South African sound, his own productions are very distinct. In addition to numerous compilation tracks on many popular labels, he has released two full length albums on Timecode, both of which gleefully ignore generic structures and formulas of psytrance to deliver mental twistedness and dancefloor madness. On top of this, he has a busy mastering facility for Timecode and other labels such as Alchemy, Zenon, Yabai, Digital Psionics, and more. He has played all over the world, and we are honored to have him performing live and dj'ing here in Texas.


DJ NIKI(3 hour dj set)
Mighty Quinn Records- St. Petersburg, Russia/Tokyo, Japan
www.mightyquinnrecords.com/Arti....html

Niki is a co-founder and owner of Tokyo based psychedelic trance label Mighty Quinn Records. Together with his partner Toshi they have released two well recognized and respected compilations and now working on future releases. Dj Niki has been Djing since 2004 and had played at numerous psychedelic parties around Japan. Sharing the decks with artists such as Penta, Osom, Jahbo, Kindzadza, Parus, Polyphonia, Dejan and Jellyheadz Mussy Moody, Candy Power, Metallaxis, Savage Scream and many, many more, Dj Niki has acquired a full length and power collection of music and presents a complete psychedelic story to the dancer on the floor. His sets are described to be perfect for any time of the party and are usually smooth, rhythmic, and mysterious and create a perfect atmosphere for body and mind. Trancers and dancers are usually are put in a happy, easy going, relaxed state of mind. Feel free to come and share this experience with Niki. Boom!


DAKSINAMURTI (3 hour dj set)
Rudraksh/ Shiva Space Technologies. Germany
www.myspace.com/daksi

His taste of music is exactly fitting the Mind Funk profile, which is consisting out of knucklebusting kicks, deep throbbing bass lines, combined with powerful & intelligent synths and not just commercial crap as found on way too many releases nowadays. Perfect nighttime/twilight psychedelic powertrance is the recipe here, next to also have a real weakness for well produced and intelligent soulful morning or daytime sounds.
