Here’s the June 2010 installment of Psilicon Dreams, my monthly mix of psychedelic downtempo electronica for DI.FM’s Psychill channel. For this month, I’ve assembled a solid set of psybient masterpieces. Highlights include a brand new cut from Phutureprimitive, a forgotten favorite from Infected Mushroom (that happens to mix perfectly with said Phutureprimitive track), and one of Ott’s best to end the set on a high note.

Here’s the March 2010 installment of Psilicon Dreams, my monthly mix of psychedelic downtempo electronica for DI.FM’s Psychill channel. For this mix, I crossed all sorts of genre borders and included psybient, IDM, dubstep, downtempo, psydub, glitch, and a dash of ambient and sloa goa. I’m rather fond of this mix as it feels cohesive, yet covers so much psychill ground.

What do you think? Leave a comment with your thoughts on this amount of genre blending in one set.

Check out this fantastic coupling of psychedelic, glitchy, chillout tunes from Sun In Aquarius. It’s a free download, so you best do yourself a favor and add these gems to your bloated music collection. You can be sure that I’ll be using both tracks in future DJ sets. More music and info about Sun In Aquarius can be found at his Myspace page.

Sun In Aquarius is a Experimental Electronic project from up and coming sound designer Jake Rose (23). Thick sonic soundscapes and liquidy glitches interweave with the psychedelic, cryptic lyrics of jim morrison and the doors in this FREE release.
Special thanks to Travis Universe for his magical guitars on Riders on the storm!.

Here’s the February 2010 installment of Psilicon Dreams, my monthly mix of psychedelic downtempo electronica for DI.FM’s Psychill channel. For this mix, I dove into my much neglected vinyl collection and pulled out some of my favorite chillout tracks from the mid-to-late ’90s. Much of what we now hear coming out of the psychill scene was directly influenced from these records. And to top it off, I whipped up a little Mark Neal inspired retrodelic cover art. Tune in every second Saturday at 9am US PST/12pm US EST/5pm UK/18:00 Central Europe to catch the newest episode. Chillout like it’s 1999 and enjoy!

This mix has been available at the Chillography site for a while, but I’m also posting it here in an effort to consolidate all of my mixes in one place. One sunny summer afternoon, at a lovely Seattle waterfront park, this mix was the first of a full day of sun-worshipping chillout sets by some of our favorite Chillography guests. It really was an amazing free event, and I’m already busy formulating our next free park gathering. Photos of said amazingness live here, here, here, and here. Full details on Chillography 201 can be found here.

Here is a recording of the my live Leave Trace set from the Oscillate ambient showcase at Chop Suey on Sept. 9, 2009. It was my first solo live set, playing all original music, and I’m pretty happy with how it turned out. It features some material you may have heard in my Regression Session mix, but there was also a good chunk of newer material in the set. Enjoy!

Here’s the set I played at Dancechurch on 09.16.09. I’ve been itching to drop an explosive psytrance set and decided to let it all rip. The mixing is not 100% tight in a couple spots, but that’s how sometimes these off-the-cuff sets go. No worries, though, as these tracks are just so damn good it’s easy to forgive. Turn this shiz up and prepare for off blast!

This set was recorded live at the 2009 edition of Eclipse, an annual psytrance festival held at the Bonnet Rouge campground in Ste-Thérèse-de-la-Gatineau, Québec. My time slot was 9pm to 11pm on the opening night, Friday. Since people were just arriving I opted to play a deep and driving blend of techno and progressive psytrance to warm up the crowd and get everyone excited for the three days and nights of music to come. As with any live recording there are a few imperfections but I am mostly happy with how it all came out. Given how early I was on, many of my friends from Toronto were unable to catch it, so posting this set is also my way of saying “here’s what you missed!”

I recently got his Love on Saturn release from Thoughtless Music and it is a fine piece of heady techno. I don’t get an opportunity to play this sort of stuff out all that often, but it is just as great as listening music.

Also, keep an eye out for his upcoming release, Undercurrent, on Somnia. That’s going to be two great tastes coming together in something quite fabulous.

*Previews don’t work for me, but maybe that’s just my computer or something…..

Children Of The Light is ManMadeMan’s latest album and as before with Free To Listen this album is available as a free download.

Over the years ManMadeMan have built up a huge catalog and have released music across the world on many compilations and Labels whilst gigging around the globe. They took the step to release as much music as the could for free, and have been amazed at the reaction and help they have received in doing this.

Whilst a band is often heads down in the studio it can be forgotten that the ultimate aim of making music is the intended listeners, and in this day and age of internet and music download it seems fitting that we embrace this as a perfect medium to allow everyone to listen to the music.

There is nothing lost for anyone, rather a sharing of two sides, the listener and the creator, both intrinsically linked.

Children of the Light is dedicated to all the listeners, dancers, labels, artists and children that have changed the course of history.

Preview the album with the player below and click over to their website to download it in the format of your preference.

The music in this produced set was created between 2000 and 2008, which was a very explorative time in my music making pursuits. I’m at a point now where I’m feeling more certain of my own creative voice, and feel that combining my older works into a larger piece is a proper way of closing the book on that chapter and allowing me to have a fresh start with my newer techniques, equipment, and processes. Essentially, Regression Session is a time capsule of sorts, documenting the ambient side of my musical voyage since 2000. The production files of most of these tracks have been lost to digital gremlins and computer platform changes, so they are presented here in their final state—goofed notes, audio glitches, mastering mistakes and all. They are what they are and will never be anything different. Despite these imperfections, I am proud to say this is/was me and am happy to have a nice package of the material to present to the world.

Your thoughts and feedback would be very welcome, but are not expected. If you enjoy what you hear, or parts of it, let me know! This music has been intensely private for so long, that I’m now very curious about how it sounds to other sets of ears.
