is he still doing that psy-trance world music fusion shit? that stuff can be good in short bursts, but gets really tired over time for me. |
||||||||

|
|
yes and no, could only count about 2 psy-trance segments in the entire set but yeah laden with "world" music (hate that term), production wise it was truly outstanding 11 piece band not including the dancers, really was amazing as much as i hate to use the genre of world music when describing music |

the full band sounds like it would have been quite cool. i would have just expected him to be spinning on his laptop or something. and yeah "world" music is an awful term, but there's not much else to describe it. pseudo-indian/egyptian/[ethnic variation] music? |

So... how's the new material? I like the deep eastern/mystical sounding stuff, not so much a fan of the cheese and horns. I like the nice phat beats as well. Cheese/horn content of the new stuff? |

from what i can remember the new material sounded great, understand with it being a shpongle gig the chances of remembering specifics are going to be very difficult and hazy all i know is that all in all everything sounded pretty damn amazing |

Ah yes, shpongled indeed. Well, Posford will be on these shores towards the end of december, so I should be able to judge for myself soon enough. Would have been great to see the whole band though |

yeah i see the rest of his shows will be dj sets, im sure ott is touring with him too, he played a live set at the aftershow party that i could not get tickets for, bah |

As far as psy chill/dub/breaks whatever go Ott is one of the best. Shame you missed out on that one, but surely the chance will arise again. I don't like psytrance, but I'm well into this type of thing. Doesn't seem to get enough recognition IMO- everyone around these parts are trance nazis, or don't have the time of day for anything psy related. |

i like psy trance in very very small doses, all sounds very samey ott is the master of production tho, blumenkraft!!!!!! holy shit i emailed him askin him how much he charges for a gig 4000 euros for a 90 minute live set or 2000 euros for a 2hour dj set and yeah ive only ever seen about 3 posts on this board about psychedelic dub music best trip music by far |

Indeed, I'm inclined to agree. I'm of a similar opinion with psytrance. A little goes a long way, then it starts getting pretty bland. It depresses me no end to see parties here with many international psy trance artists, but no psy dub love. There's no getting through to the psy trance crowd though, their thirst for trance is insatiable. I find some of the stuff happening on the fringes of psy dub very interesting. People like Bluetech incorporating IDM-ish elements, working towards new horizons. I'm a little surprised there isn't more love around these parts... |

bluetech are great |

I've never understood the lack of psy-love on this forum. Albums like Are You Shpongled and Hallucinogen in Dub are easily as rich, complex and beautiful as anything by Plaid, Arovane, etc |

Shpongle's dj gigs can be pretty fun, but also a bit all over the place. That's why I would've liked to have been there this time, with a real live ensemble. OTT, on the other hand, blew me away. I was surprised and delighted (that was last year). One of the best live acts I can imagine. |
