^^^ I still found that kinda cheesy tbh. Don’t get me wrong, the production is solid and the kick and bass are tight and hard-hitting, but all those breakdowns and hands-in-the-air melodies, and the singing… that’s the sort of thing I find a bit cringe worthy tbh. I guess my definition of cheesiness is making comparisons with Israeli-style psytrance, and I find these hard dance styles a little too close to the Israeli psy formula, just with different stylistics. :s Will check out the other stuff you mentioned though.
Yeah man, I like a bit of Ace Ventura…
I am honestly surprised to hear that the psy scene has more violence and bad goings on compared to other scenes. Is it a case of ‘undesirables’ entering the scene, or is this violence among people actually into psytrance? I’d find it hard to see how it’d be actual psy people fighting, esp. when the psytrance subculture is centred around psychedelic drugs, and the last thing people want to do while tripping ballz is fight, not to mention the fact that psytrance is full of hippies…
