Good question... and as a frequent reader of this forum, I sometimes get the feeling that there are perhaps not that many minimal/prog-psy fans on Isratrance/Japan.. I would love to be proven wrong!!

There are plenty of good prog-psy djs in Japan, of course, but, to be honest, don't know of that many producers. Omb has some amazing stuff, but don't know if it falls into prog-psy necessarily... Again, love to be told I'm wrong by anybody with better knowledge of the scene...

Zhyin, you can check this thread http://forum.isratrance.com/viewtopic.php/topic/11779/forum/16 for discussion on Japanese artists in general... not everyone on that thread is in agreement, but some interesting viewpoints...

And, of course he's not Japanese, but based in Japan at this time (I believe), is Fine Diner...

Hey, I would be interested to hear some of Tonio's stuff... seems to me like TranceCafe has been fairly quiet these days.. and I see Bom Odori appears to not be going ahead this year http://www.trancecafe.com/topFrame-new.htm That's a shame!!

Not to get too caught up in labels, Mad Drop, I assume you mean Tonio's producing ProgPsy as opposed to Prog-Trance?? Prog-Trance is Tiesto and shit like that, is it not?? Paul Van Dyk and Armin Van Buuren (is it a Dutch thing??) At least, that's what they call themselves??? Holy f*&k, is Prog the most meaningless label or what?!?!

Prog-Psy is what you find on labels like Iboga, Plusquam, Digital Structures, right?? That's my take on it anyhoo...

Any one want to dispute these 'labels', or 'pigeon holes'... I really hate labels, and the music I love comes across the whole spectrum from Psy-Prog, Full On, Tech-Trance, Dark Trance, Techno, Tech-House, Click-House, Micro-House, blah blah blah blah blah

I'm sure most of you have seen this before, it's been around for ages, but I'd be interested to hear some reaction... the most thorough and opinionated breakdown of electronic music you're apt to find, and I'm sure it will cause some of you to go WTF!!! I know I did!! http://www.di.fm/edmguide/edmguide.html

To give you an example, the artists and tracks they have down as exemplifying "Psychedelic Trance" are...
1) Man Made Man - Drama
2) Pleidians - Jungle Trax
3) GMS vs Alien Project - One Good
4) The Delta - Traveling at the Speed of Thought
5) Kindzadza - Mars Bless You
6) Process - Internal Horizons
7) Penta - Neurotic Call
8) Digital Talk - New Age Surf
9) Infected Mushroom - Acid Killer

Eclectic mix, I'm sure you'll agree!! Ha ha...

I'll simplify... I love good music!!

On the local Japan Trance Forum that Ken and I look after, we got a posting a while ago from a DJ (Dutch??) posting his mix of what I assume is Tiesto-ish kind of stuff... didn't listen to much of it, not really my taste. But, I guess I can't blame that guy for posting it there (even though a quick breeze through the postings and cd reviews would have told him that he might not get too much response to his post ) It is called japantranceforums after all, and Tiesto and the like is considered "Trance" in some circles...

Ah, the agony, the agony...

ha ha... I am sick, that's for sure... sorry Mad, I wasn't trying to teach you anything at all... I'm well aware of my limited time in this scene... but I have been a fanatic music fan for all (??) of my 33 years, so... whenever I say something about breaking down genres, or whatever, I'm just hoping to get confirmation or correction from others who have been in this specific scene longer... Just trying to prod others a bit to see if their breakdown of things is the same as my limited understanding... No pride here, just hoping to share and learn and enjoy!!

I would be interested to hear some of the older Iboga stuff to hear how it is different!!

Looking forward to catching your set at the Isratrance party... and actually, I'm not really all that 'sick'... it's stupid how some internet names start... ha ha...

Hey sick boy... love that link you posted. Crackers!

Mad Factory, whats up. I was DJ/A&R with resonoise years back... I compiled the cd's with Vadim! Great fun!

Now I'm with Iboga. I would say that Iboga is not a prog house label. Listen to set:4/5 and beat bizzare albums... this is not house. Although I see where you are coming from as Antix is more on that style. But we don't care... good music is good music! We just want good dance music on the label that isn't too fast.

Anyway, good to find you!

Mad Factory: Sorry, can't make it out this weekend, we're doing a beach party ourselves (looks like the typhoon has blown through!!) We'll stay in touch about the the Elf party though!! Have a good one this weekend!!


Glen: Yeah, that link is good for hours upon hours of surfing... I like going through it because the guy who wrote it is very opinionated and unaplogetic about his views... and contradicts himself all over the place!!! I find myself going "yeah, that's right", and then "what the hell are you talking about" at the same time!

Unless I've missed it (and I don't think I have), there doesn't seem to be anything about Psy-Prog, or whatever we're calling it. No Iboga, Plusquam, Digital Structures etc... No Son Kite, Phony Orpants etc etc... mmmm... maybe I'll solicit your advice sometime Glen, and dash off an email to the person behind that page!!

Hey, I had a chance to check out your mix at http://www.aero-groove.com/Main.htm . I'm a huge Iboga fan, and the stuff you play is pretty much exactly my style... I've been trying to track down the Saronida Sound System - Dee Vee Dee - Canedy rmx here in Tokyo, but haven't yet... guess I'll break down and order it online (though, living in one of the record buying capitals of the world, Tokyo, I really really prefer using the local shops!!!)

Thanks for the comments about the mix. It's a little old now but still still loving some of those tracks.
PM me anytime you want to ask something... no trouble!

Sound System - Dee Vee Dee - Canedy rmx is only just released on 12" now (or very soon) and that europe. It may take a little extra before being released in Japan. But I'm sure all spiraltrax/ACDC stuff is stocked over there so hold tight!

Thanks... come to think of it, soon after I had purchased "High Voltage House Music" (god, I'm not apologetic at all about Psy having a 'housey' sound, but that's a terrible album title!!), I think I had read your comment in another thread about the Canedy rmx... and kind of been keeping an eye out for it ever since... I'll wait... 'tis a shame, sometimes those of us in Japan are used to having first grabs at new released stuff... oh well...

As for getting 'Psy Prog' onto that page, I don't think I'll make it my top priority... by the tone of his writing, I don't think he (she?) would take all that well to suggestions... anyhow, thanks for the offer of help, and I'm sure we'll speak again...

cheers
