    Paul Eye got a reaction from ancientrealms in When did you start listening to psybient / psychill music?   
    1997-1998. One of the earliest I heard was the 2nd CD of Return to the Source's The Chakra Journey compilation. Can't remember anymore what was the first "psychill" (pardon the double quotes but I don't think it was called that yet back then) CD I bought (first goa CD I bought was Transwave - Helium and I'll never forget that) but I think it's along the lines of The Infinity Project - Mystical Experiences / Celtic Cross - Hicksville / Mathuresh - Metaphor / Sri Hari - One But Different / some Banco de Gaia album.
    Then of course came Shpongle's debut album and nothing was really the same anymore

    Paul Eye got a reaction from Gagarin Project in What Equipement do you use?   
    * A piece of crap HP laptop with Windows XP from 2008 (have had to change the hard drive a few times to fit all my music on it, also it's never been on the internet so no antivirus/firewall software running and has absolutely no useless software installed in the first place).
    * Korg Nanokontrol
    * Native Instruments Audio Kontrol 1
    * Software: djDecks 0.99 with a self-made custom skin to suit my needs
    * Pioneer DJM-250 for home mixing
     
    A surprisingly stable setup and even if I've been eyeing some new equipment I think I'll keep this setup until it breaks down (hopefully not in the middle of a gig).
     
    I never even considered CDs when I decided to start DJing in 2010. I already had the laptop (which as stated needed a bigger hard drive to fit all my music), a soundcard with 2 stereo outputs (not the AK1 though yet, got that one in early 2011) and a MIDI controller (also not the Nanokontrol, that was an early 2011 purchase too) I'd been using for theater sounds, so it was rather natural to turn the setup into a DJing rig. Also, with a laptop I can keep my entire music collection with me, so I can play some goa instead of chill (or vice versa) if asked nicely

    Well, Dakini Records is run by Makyo and the label's sound is, if not completely uniform, quite similarly themed. Check their Bandcamp page for a start. Seems like the Sky Dancing Nada Masala compilations aren't available there, too bad as they're quite nice as I recall (haven't listened to them in a good while).
