Little Green Planet

An Awesome evening of Psy Trance, that refilled my insperation to produce mature psy choons!! I though Burn In Noise and Jeremy were exactly what the doctor ordered. No need to fill every gap with a sound, very atmospheric and though provoking.
No a shabby venue either. i though i was gonna be like Bill Hicks, go to a club and fill my hump with hate, reminding me why I dont go out often. But it was clean, spacious and not too badly priced.
Thanks Guys!

Cynic

Wow, a dream come true. On 20 November 08, I saw Cynic, one of my favorite bands. They released an Album called 'Focus' about 15 years ago, that fused metal with jazz. It left such a memory that they reformed in 2006 and recently released a new album called 'Traced in Air' A perfect middleground for Psycadelic metal/Rock jazz. But as they played it became soberingly apparent that they still didnt fit in to the conventional metal 'scene'. Most people were waiting for the headlining band, Opeth, and didnt quite 'get' the Cynic sound. It was a shock to me, but also a moment of enightenment, as i realised that many of the true creative revolutionaries never see commercial recognition. and needent have to. And its a reminder that we should never loose sight of the fact that we make music for ourselves first, and if others come to appreciate it too, you are onto something special. And if not? so what?

Some Psytrance acts could learn alot from that. It seems ironic somehow that even such an expressive genre such as psy trance has been stained with a commercial pressure to sound like clones of other peoples good ideas.
