    Another Fine Day's album is very good it seems - have only had a couple of casual listens.  Haven't bought it yet.
     
    I really like Cord's Birdie EP - up there with Griff's musical stylings, which I love.
     
    And love Sigil's remix of Lamb's Butterfly Effect.  Have had it since the A Gnostic EP, so it's good to see it getting out again.  It's lovely.
     
    Numatik's intangible is quite good too.  A bit of a change from previous releases I think, with the appearance on Merkaba Music.  I like.

    hmmm difficult as ever
     
    1st: another fine day - a good place to be: it is't psy but the delicate sounds are just so sweet, just love the modern classical sounds!
    2nd: super cozi - bioshifter: again a very soft and sweet sound (reminds me of morcheeba and lamb), i guess i'm into that this week
    3th: kick bong - the lost valley: OK, it's not there best ever or anything, but these guys have a special place in my soul.
     
    about rubirek: yes it's a good release, no doubt about that, but i dunno, i go for something else this week 'mkay

    Master Minded - Element and Shaman's Dream - Four Elements
     
    Both released on bandcamp within a few hours of each other.  Both focused on the earthly elements.  Both excellent.
     
    I was waiting for Master Minded's album with enthusiasm, but the Shaman's Dream EP was a nice surprise!

    my number one vote goes to 'Shaman's Dream - Four elements'!
    he blends psy, chilli-out and nature in such a magnificent way, it's music that makes you melt into blissfulness!

    Greetings! And thanks for the ethereal vibes I actually prefer stuff with a heavier beat and/or bass, so 'Cargo Cult' appealed to me most

    Namaste.
    AstralSeeker is Christophe Kosior, a French man from Corsica island, in south of France.
    He is "a man on a mission". :-)
    He is very keen on music, cinema, travels, alternative medicines, spirituality, martial arts, organic food, with a real ecological consciousness.
    He has been playing music in parties since the 80's, going through punk, rock, indie, new wave, cold wave, indus, (etc…). His first encounter with goa trance was in early 1993 in Paris, France, at the famous party GAIA 2 with German Live act X-Dream, and French djs Heyoka and Yayo.
    At this party, his experience was so deep that he immediately started collecting music and became part of the "French DAT mafia" of the early years :-)
    Between 1993 § 1997, he attended  hundreds of goa trance parties in France, mainly organised by Trans Body Express (TBE), Tekno Resistance/Gaia (Teknotanz), Dragon Force and other organisations of this period.
    Since 1993 he played goa trance § psychedelic chill-out in countless public and private parties. He can play full-on, but his expertises are old school goa trance, progressive and psychill. He mixes tracks from all eras, from the 90's to nowadays modern productions. His psychill style is epic, morning § hypnotic, composed of slow bpm groovy progressive § tribal/Indian tracks. He is always trying to open the dancers/listeners to the bright side of psychedelic music, triggering positiveness, enlightenment, happy feelings § epic vibes into them with cleverly structured mixes.
    Since 2009 he opened thousands of persons all around the planet to the world of goa trance and psychedelic ambient through his soundcloud mixes § youtube channel, where he uploaded over 250 musical video clips nicely edited for hundreds of psytrance § psychill artists.
    After 22 years of collecting and mixing psytrance and psychill tracks, he chose the year 2015 to fully reveal himself to the public.
    AstralSeeker is seeking Beauty everywhere including in the astral realms :-)
    His mission: Spread Love Through Music.
    Namaskar.

    I guess I should do an introduction as well. It's about time.
     
    I'm Mikkel, born and raised in Denmark, now living in Copenhagen where I try to promote the (non-existing) ambient culture. So far it's moving forward, although slowly. I am also one half of the Mønsterhed duo. As of right now we do DJ sets with all kinds of chilled music and my partner is a skilled VJ and content creator for his medium, so we're looking to branch into audio-visual performances when I can pull myself together and make some music for it.
    My connection to the site is that I sometimes help out behind the scenes on Psybient, doing proofreeding of the larger posts and also published a couple of interviews through the site (those with Easily Embarrassed and Carbon Based Lifeforms). I've been here on the forum from the start, so to say.
     
    Ambient has been my preferred style of music for a handful of years now. I think I stumbled upon CBL in 2009 or 2010 and I was hooked from there. Since then my taste has evolved into more beatless terrain, favoring stuff like Matt Hillier's work and the output of 12k Music. However, I still have a fondness of Ultimae and the like  
     
    Hope to make some good friends on here.

    Hi everyone
     
    My name is Sarah.
     
    I first got in to psy music via bands like Shpongle and Entheogenic who are still big favourites. I love music and listen to it every day for most of the day if I can, I have a somewhat eclectic taste and usually find something from each genre that I like, though I'd say psybient is my favourite.
     
    Though it's been something close to my heart for a while now I feel like I want to experience it all further and am looking to go to some psytrance festivals in the near future and possibly begin writing my own music, though I have a lot to learn before I start to get anywhere with that!
     
    I would like to learn more, listen more and reach out and find others with similar interests!
     
    Hope everyone is well

    Cold Tear is an amazing label, I love their approach to dub electronica/techno. Mikael Delta I also knew from the legendary (in Greece) electronica band "Stereo Nova" and its pioneering work during the 90s. This is a high quality dub techno album, enjoyed it a lot!

    Greetings from Switzerland !

    hmmm... what to say
    Music lover for long time...   I've been DJing, producing, organizing parties  and performing liveacts in the swiss psytrance scene for some years...  Especially between 2002 and 2012.   
    Some may have heard about Biolive and the Timegate event... I was one of the two original founders of Biolive...  But I've quit few years later in order to focus more on making music... 
    I've also been organizing some interesting music-making international workshops events called "Primitif-Workshop" with Vincent Le Barde (Electrypnose) and others friends..
     
    But since 2012~2013 I started to loose some interest in psytrance dancefloor music...   But for sure, i didn't wanted to stop making music...  But I think I had to get away a bit form the computer..  So I started to experiment more with acoustic instruments (escpecially handpans, native flutes, kalimbas,...).
     
    And now I'm happy to mix these two worlds together in a more chillout mood
    (you can check some of my tracks in the "demo tracks" section)
     
    I've never been really involved in the Chillout scene, but I'm getting more and more attracted to it...
    And I thought this forum could be a nice place for that
     
    All the best to all of you !
    Spring hugs <3

    Hello All. 

    My name is Yuri. I am Russian, born in Latvia, living in UK since 2005. I work as Web Application Developer. I've been listening to Psychedelic ambient and psychill since 2003-2004. I was 17 years old, and I was picking psilocybe semilanceata back at home and naturally started researching everything that is related with psychedelic culture, heard Future sounds of ambient vol3. And shortly after heard Shpongle. Became crazy Shpongle fan until they released 4th album. Was listening to Shpongle all day everyday and it was like a religion for me for a while, then suddenly my obsession stopped when 4th album was released.

    These days I am mostly listening to Matt Hillier's music and sacred bass/glitch inspired psychill. I do listen to psytrance, nothing cheesy, nothing too progressive, sometimes dark and forest but not manically. I do listen to other genres as well including idm, balkan, dub techno, etc etc. Whatever sounds interesting can work.

    I heard about psybient.org in it's early days naturally through social media, and my friend Nick Gabriel, then started following iurii on Facebook to get all the latest updates.

    Best.
