I couldn’t wait for this week’s show after being forced to take last week off! You guys have been asking for a fix of dark psytrance and this week’s set delivers. As usual it’s mixed with a fairly deep and twisted selection of fullon psy. I also discovered a great EP by Planewalker titled Psychic Evolution, which is available for free download at Ektoplasm. It’s a killer mix of breakbeat and psychedelic trance which seems to be shaping a relatively new sub-genre called psybreaks. While still a relatively young sub-sub-genre of trance, I could see more artists like Planewalker and Dapanji creating a pretty popular fusion between the already popular psytrance and breakbeat sub-genres.

Caddyshack drops some new tracks in his set this week too, including a new Nick Sentience remix of Edison Factor and a killer Organ Donors remix of Adapter by Scott Attrill. Another track worth mentioning for Hard Acid Trance fans is Andy Farley & Base Graffiti – No More. Base Graffiti is one of those names I don’t see too often, but it always catches my attention when one of their tracks get’s played.

This tag team set was three weeks in the making. Before you get too excited – that doesn’t mean we spent three weeks practicing, rather it got posponed for three weeks before we managed to wing it at the last minute. Regardless of how hard I try to keep from growing up it seems inevitable and with that comes substantially less time devoted to mixing records.

After waiting three weeks for the set it took another week (due to a bad cold) to get the podcast posted. My sincere appologies to Andrew who has waited patiently after I promised him to have it up last Monday!
