Leary had his own motives to create propaganda against the authorities.
By all means think for yourself, but lets not be so one-sided as to only question authority.

no, i stand by his statement.
question authority, including underground guru kinds of authority.
don't let individual others interpret consensus reality for you..
thats ALL sided;) |

Big respect to Ocelot, just one small corection.... there are ppl doing things old school style, 120ppl in a island or a farm with watterfalls, good sound system and good old/new psytrance....some old goa sets to just spice it up...ppl in their late 20s early 30s and even 40s.....
The thing is parties like this don't have budget to contract djs and lives.. we have to count on friends that are dj to compose the line up......

see my original post for the part about
"and no i dont mean you 5 trancers grooving to weird shit in the middle of usa with no crowd. im talking to the masses of fucking sheep who make massives featuring the same damn live acts that are always featured... and SUCK!"
120, 5, you know what i mean... its not very socially significant if you and your friends want to bring a sound system to your campout and have fun. more power to you.
but im thinking about the ART of creating a social event or party and its connection to the society around it...
can't you feel the tension from living in cities and suburbs and traffic and all that?
why is our music scene so buttoned up and fake when real life has created so many emotions inside us? where is the release and the wave of energy and love and joy etc?
perhaps dancing around in front of a set of speakers with other people is just not as radical as it used to be?
i remember when NO ONE (except teenage girls) danced... then came the whole ravey thing (trance is just a branch sorry Gil  )
remember when searching for an underground party meant work and secrecy and finally triumph when you followed the pulse of bass to the location?
today its like " oh boy. another 'party' in a fucking blackbox with a doorman and a bar "
and they are competing for your attention etc...10 parties a week, blah blah
ARTISTS who make music
ARTISTS who make parties
ITS TIME to focus on QUALITY not QUANTITY
stop settling for whatever and start demanding better!!!!

I'd rather listen to Tristan, kox box, dado (new transwave stuff is off the hook), than any of the new style race horse speed tunes that come out today.
Call me old fashioned, but I know what I like. Its not a matter of being conditioned to one kind of sound either. Ive been in love with psy trance since 1994 and the music has changed quite a lot since then, but there's this whole do something different for the sake of doing something diferent craze going on.
Some people like walls of noise that are labeled as "genius" and a parade of dissonant leads that are branded as "dark", yet sound something out of a spungebob evil scene to scare 5 year olds and that is fair enough, its what they like.
So lets just let everyone enjoy what they like in peace, instead of shoving our own principles of music education down people's throats.
As you were ladies.
