D_Maniac is the solo and main project of Manuel Trindade, born in October 1981.
He started playing music at the age of 6, learning keyboard and piano, later playing drums in several bands with diferent musical styles, until he finally discovered and started producing psy-trance music in late 2001!
Since then he has performed, not only, in parties all over Portugal including some of the biggest events in the country like Psybertech 2006, Freedom Festival 2007 and Boom Festival 2010, but also in countries like Finland, Russia, Ireland, Spain, Israel & Germany where he played at Full Moon Festival 2008!
Manuel is also a part of the project Sick Addiction, combining efforts and ideas with Tiago Pimentel (Tryambaka), their debut album «Demented Diary» is allready out since early 2009!!
The story of this project starts at the end of 2008th year. A young musician - M. Crystalis (also known as Gnevomir, DEMON ShineGami and ZAN de Jaquio) leaves the band named ЯВЬ (YAV') and begins to work on his own projects.
He was very inspired by some experimental electronic artists (such as Complex Numbers and Unreal). The influence was really strong, so he decided to try working in this genre too. First, a project called "The Matrix" was created (but in the middle of 2010th year the name was changed to "Crystal Matrix").
It was dicided to choose some mysterious and unusual themes for compositions, such as: space, time, Universe and even secrets of a human's mind. And then almost two years have passed. The work was hard and results were good enough. So the author dicided that time has come to make a full and proper album of Crystal Matrix. Then he moved to Kharkov and the hardest part of the work started. All the material was arranged, reworked and mastered at MoonHome Studio in summer of 2010th year. So as a result, the debut album was created and called "Far Away From Earth".
The album includes 9 instrumnetal electronic tracks and is available for free downloading. After that M. Crystalis continued his musical experiments and modifications. New tracks were made at an entirely new level of arrangement and sound. And some texts were written for female vocals as planned. So in December of 2010th year all the new material was ready for making a second album. And again - there was a lot of hard work at MoonHome studio. It lasted three long months. But in March of 2011th year it was finally over. A brand new album was ready to conqer people's hearts. Unlike first fully-instrumental album the second one included four instrumental tracks and four songs.
An ideal balance... Truly, the Crystal Matrix project (and M. Crystalis himfelf) has reached a new level of music making craft (but the old themes and atmosphere has remained). The new album contains a lot of trance sequences, some 8-bit samples, a little of Synth Gothic elements etc. Also it includes a cover version of the great song "Kämpfe, Sailor Moon!" (originally performed by Super Moonies). M. Crystalis has rearranged it and made a new text (in English). Enjoy!
Fungus Funk is Serge Prilepa.
Ever since Russian-Ukrainian born and Moscow based Sergey Prilepa began writing psytrance in 1998 and started putting out tracks as FUNGUS FUNK back in 2001, releasing over the years on such fine labels as Acidance, Discovalley, Crystal Matrix, Deja Vu, Noize Conspiracy, Temple Twisters and many others, people have been screaming for more and more.
"F People", the debut full length album from this Russian producer, came out on Acidance. Overflowing with groovy basslines, aggressive synths, warm melodious pads and signature psychedelic atmospheres it was very well received by everyone in the global psytrance community. Sergey's music was described as a masterful balance of complex textures and arrangements that lead the listener through an intricate journey of that hazy period of time between night and morning. Sergey's second monster of an album titled "Vostok 1" came out on the highly regarded Russian-Aussie label Blitz Studios; the album was written together with another Russian psytrance producer - Samadhi.
This album once again firmly re-established Fungus Funk as a true master of psychedelic trance. Fungus Funk's 3rd album Electric Grooves came out 2 years later, in April 2010, on his usual home base Blitz Studios and surely once again caused waves of admiration in the global scene.
Many wicked performances throughout the world followed Fungus Funk's initial appearance on the global trance scene some years ago. Today Fungus Funk is a very respectable figure among the top-notch psytrance producers of the planet, playing such huge parties as Boom Festival in Portugal, Sonica Festival in Italy and Transcendence Festival in Brazil to name just a few.... The Fungus Funk revolution is most definitely here… You have been warned!!!

Dancing Chakras is the result of years experimenting with music creation and exploring into the energy of the chakras.
The process has been developed through meditation on each of the chakras, practicing a breathing exercise in each of them to allow the inspiration and creative flow arising from the origin of each energy center.
Each chakra is in tune with their respective note: The first in C, the second in D, E in the third, fourth in F, G in the fifth, sixth in A and seventh in B. The tempo increases as we move upward through the chakras so as to reach the seventh chakra we are at a rate of 144 bpm.
This work is a vehicle that can transport you to the state of consciousness known as trance, through dance, focusing our attention and breath on each of the chakras and allowing the body to express naturally.
This release comes with a book where Keemiyo explains each Chakra in detail.
Will be published in all Spanish talking countries by AlphaOmega together with the album on CD.
DJ Feuerhake.com... DJ FEUERHAKE BIOGRAPHY.. Hamburg-based producer and DJ Stefan Feuerhake began his musical career in the early 1990s, as a hip-hop and funk DJ. Just a few years later he was infected by the techno virus, which changed his DJ work completely.
In the following years, he developed into what he still is today: one of the most popular and influential DJs of the international progressive trance and psy-trance scene.
Stefan has performed more than seven hundred gigs in over twenty countries. In 2001 he was voted DJ of the Year by the readers of Mushroom magazine, the most popular psy-trance magazine in the world...
By the end of the 1990s, Stefan had begun working as a producer. Since then, his prolific output has included four artist album releases, a few single 12-inches and countless collaborations and remixes. Stylistically, he is somewhere between progressive house and trance, but his repertoire includes ambient and chillout (and lately even hip-hop).
Stefan is an educated audio engineer (SAE) and works in his own studio in Hamburg. His mastering skills have been put to use by artists and companies such as as Klassik Radio, East Hotel Hamburg, City Beach Club, Peacelounge Rec., Music Mail, Synergetic Rec, Deep Dive Corp. and Lemongrassmusic...
Over the last couple of years, Stefan taught courses on DJing, mixing and mastering at the SAE Hamburg. Currently he is working at the YoYoSonic Music Institute, an Ableton Certified Training Center in Hamburg. He also offers workshops on Cubase and Traktor Pro and one-on-one sessions, and he is ever interested in any new concepts or collaborations.
Brothers, studio partners and seasoned producers who’s achievements to date encompass 4 albums, a fruitful international touring career and an array of heavyweight productions spread across their three monikers Fiord, Antix and Triangle.
"The studio being our second home is our creative playground which gives us the confidence to work outside the square. The Fiord releases of late are hypnotic dance-floor monsters, we love to pack a punch and give people a thrill. The sound on the new Antix album tends to sway to the deeper emotional side with splashes of robotic funk and melancholic Indy dance. That's the advantage of having so many projects, it allows us to evolve in many directions"
Hailing from New Zealand with a musical background rich with influences from Ritchie Hawtin to Rhythm and Sound, Barton and Hayden have such a plethora of inspiration it is indisputable that the quality of their music simply demands your attention. On their quest they continue to push new boundaries, mesmerizing audiences worldwide. Check out their work, and you'll hear why.

Looking back on more then one decade of intense involvement in the Trance scene, Benjamin Halfmann aka Audiomatic witnessed the rich evolution of this sub culture with all its innovations, variations and all its ups and downs. Even more: During the years his project constantly gained quality and became a reference for sophisticated, high-functional Progressive Trance.
Therefore Audiomatic became an integral ingredient of this scene and has shaped its musical development with his unique sounds which have been part of legendary parties and festivals in 14 countries around the globe.
It all started with some powerful Heavy Metal: Benjamin Halfmann banged his head to the music of AC/DC and posters of Punk, Hardcore and Metal bands adorned the walls of his room up to the age of 15 years. Then he discovered the fascinating worlds of Psy Trance and rapidly became engaged as a DJ, first public performances followed in 1999.
But soon a strong desire to convert his creativity into own music arose, and so Audiomatic got hungry for more. His producer’s breakfast consisted of some tasty Fruity Loops and this simple production software instantly made him aware that the games on his computer were not only a waste of time, but also of hard disc space.
Not even one year later his music already convinced the label management of Leviathan Music and so the track “Woodstock” became the first official release in 2002. Various contributions on different compilations followed and the year 2004 delivered the first full length Album “Multiplayer”.
Together with Stefan “Magnetrixx” Lewin, who has always been a good friend and important source of inspiration for Benjamin Halfmann, the project “Audiomatrixx” was formed, gained euphoric feedback and also brought to life a studio album in 2008. The same year Audiomatic’s second album was released.
And that’s still not enough productivity: As a platform for musical variation and a reaction to the recent developments in the Progressive Trance scene, Benjamin Halfmann is now also running a side project under his civic name which dedicates rather techy and clubby tunes.
