Ahh I've been real busy lately and I almost posted that whole Hallucinogen remix CD all in a row but then I missed a couple days before the final track, it will be in the next post in case anybody was wondering what the hell happened haha. Looks like some good Astral Projection, Infected Mushroom and Kick Bong was posted while I was gone. Also, gotta love the Dumbo clip, I really wanted to watch that little section of the movie while tripping but I never ended up getting around to it. I can't usually watch stuff while I'm tripping anyway I guess.



Yes! Kick Bong is fucking great! I posted a track earlier in the thread but more is always nice!



LOL, I love the one with Stewie. Classic.

Final track of the Hallucinogen In Dub CD. Very nice finishing track in my opinion. Angelic Particles.

Haha well when I got on Youtube it recommended this clip for me. I thought some Tim and Eric would fit nicely in this thread. First time I saw this show I was tripping on mushrooms and needed a break so I turned on the TV and then this shit came on and blew my mind. I've been in love ever since. Season 5 is coming soon.

I love this thread.

Infected Mushroom's "Twisted" seems heavily influenced by an earlier Astral Projection song, Utopia. Listen to the placement of effects and the tempo.

Me too.



Yeah I can definitely hear what you mean. That's pretty interesting. It's an awesome track by the way, I hadn't heard it before, at least it's been a while since I've owned any of Astral Projections music (lost it all on last computer) and I didn't remember it.

Yeah, Astral Projection is probably the most influential artist in the goa/psytrance genres, along with Hallucinogen, and then Infected Mushroom a few years later.

Yeah, that seems like a pretty good analysis. I need to find all that old AP and transfer it to my current computer for sure haha. It's definitely interesting to see where Infected Mushroom came from and where they are now. Two completely different versions of the same genre in my opinion. Evolution is a good thing though, I suppose, even if the newer IM tracks lack a bit of that punch.

Definitely! Astral Projection's " Trust in trance III " is probably my favorite album by them, worth revisiting many times for sure. It's probably their most important album as well, heavily influenced a ton of upcoming artists in the following years. Good stuff.

Infected Mushrooms new tracks just seem simpler than they used to be. They can't take to you nearly as far out as their songs from around 2000-2003 could. I've been on some journies whilst listening to old infected.

I love that really creepy feeling their older stuff had, it sounds seriously demented. All their tracks have that feeling of super deep tripping, where your mind is in another place, not state. The track I linked called " The Fly " is, in my opinion, probably their darkest track, right up there with Twisted, Where is S, and You don't exist.

/Edit : At 5:15 in " The Fly " that effect is so chilling and odd. I recently learned how to replicate it on my Midi and can't stop playing with it, just sounds so freaky! You hear it all over that song, but at 5:15 is where it really shines and shows how far out it can really be.
