From Japan, the land of Far East, here comes a psychedelic monster "PHI".
Japan trance scene has been grown remarkably in recent years with fine domestic artists, "PHI" is the one who leads the scene since they formed in 2002. Compared with common trance live, playing tracks with no gimmick, they do the real time mixing at live and acquire their original flavor into live performance. They break the general idea for computer music and create dynamic, progressive, and original sound with full of live energy on their debut album which move them ahead to next level and this album should blow out crowd at party. "PHI" will be on Europe tour in this summer with having their debut album "PHINALIZER"
*Details of an album and sample of tracks to the following site.

Phi
Phinalizer
Elf Music (Japan)
review by damion from psyreviews.com
This weekfs Eastern flavour (or gflavah, if youfre under twenty) continues with yet another album that totally blows me away. This is delicious, delirious, screaming-and-creaming fullon thatfs got some of the most intricate and dedicated production heard all year. Henro takes all of ten seconds (countfem) before itfs bashed straight into fullon mayhem -- I thought gno long introfsh was a phrase used to advertise premium-rate sex lines, but I stand corrected. And it explodes into fiercely good melodic stuff, with rising 303fs, but nowhere near cheddarville. It ends a little soon though, but any objection to that is squished when We Can Go To Your Country comes in, a deeper edge but no less energy. This is staggering, sounding at times like a cross between Mr Peculiar and Lego head (a good thing), with melodies that are great but are somehow not core to the tune. Perfect ATK is an utter belter -- utterly staggering. The grooves change everywhere, the noises ar e perfectly-placed, it makes me want to call everyone I know and tell them how good it is (unluckily though I called my mum first, and she had no idea what I was on about.) Ganja Of It All is killer and all, a rising anthem with a quality break, great escalationc the raw power here is incredible. Plz Pass Me Beer & Acid is deep and rolling, futuristic synth stabs abounding. Not the greatest tune on the album, but the best evidence of how Phi layers and textures sounds. The title track is tuffer than a lot here, a gnarlier riff and more attitudey topend movement, plus Led Zep samples in the breakdown, before breathless melodies run it all out towards the end. And now to Afrobad -- a huge synth riff, building up and up then cascading all over you. Utterly sublime, but wefre hardly started yet: It rises and rises and rises, and at that final peak youfre left with one word on your lips: GOA!!! Yup, itfs the first Goa Trance record in about eight years. I Donft Need Your Justic eis manic, fast space-tech, and the noises have to be heard to be believed. Itfs truly awesome -- the synths come out at you in 3D sound, I didnft think stuff like this was possible?? Finally Desert Legend slows things down but - f*ck me - itfs no less amazing. All of which means, this is a rather special record: therefs no formula here, therefs some of the most intricate programming of the yearc a record that has you screaming and creaming as it takes you along.
