The Chilluminati Present, in our fifth year, our re-occuring one-night Psychedelic and Goa Trance event: Metatronic! This is an open-invite, full-scale music and art event taking place in Central Illinois. Amazing audio navigation from some of the best Live Psychedelic Acts in the USA, artwork and visual installations, kinetic UV performances, and more!
Join us as we welcome the spring season and progress through Goa, Psytrance, Psychill, and PsyDM in an immersive & interactive environment by design.
~~Artist Lineup~~
 Progress - iprogress.us - New York
Progress, the project of Yuriy Vaskevich, is an evolution of sound that brings a world of fantasy and imagination to its listeners. Based in New York City, an energetic hub, the music is a reflection of its physical origin as well as the mental evolution of its composer. With a strong foundation in classic music, mainly of piano and guitar and a post-modern ambition, the sound is both organic and electronic. The project began in the late 1990s with an exploration of personal identity and experimentation with various styles of electronic music. Today Progress ranges in style from psychedelic trance, ambient and chill-out, to avant-garde and experimental. Having played at several live venues in the United States and written film scores, Progress has a rapidly growing acclaim. As the name implies, the music is always progressing with the common denominator being its inspiring melodies and a strong tendency to take its listeners on a colorful journey.
Dragon - Dharmaharmony TOUCH Samadhi - Florida
Co-founder of Dharmaharmony Records, Dragon is an international artist producing a hybrid style of psytrance and darkpsy. Learning to dj in 1997, he made the trek from progressive trance to the realms of psytrance by 2001, and started composing his own music around 2004. He has been a cornerstone of the trance scene in the South Eastern US, representing the TOUCH Samadhi coalition based in North Carolina. Dragon’s musical productions include a handful of singles as well as two full-length albums; “in.formation” released in 2009 and “spirals of time” releasing in early 2011.
Dragon now has a new side project called “predator” which represents the sci-fi side of dubstep and continues to embrace his signature alien soundscapes that the Dragon project is so well-known for. The Dragon’s lair is in Gulf Breeze, Florida, the UFO capitol of the US, which may explain the heavy influence of all the interstellar sounds in his productions.
dNx (aka Dan Efex) - danefex.com - Chicago
Dan Efex is well known for his ability to draw a frenzied excitement out of even the mellowest of crowds. It is not uncommon to see fans packed shoulder to shoulder, hands in the air, as he leads them through an energetic and intoxicating journey on the dance floor. There are many who consider him to be one of the founders of the Midwest’s trance scene, a scene that is still strong and growing today. He was one of the first to introduce the Midwest to the soaring build-ups and powerful explosions characteristic of some of his styles of trance. But although Dan is perhaps best known for his trance, do not be fooled -- he is as diverse as he is skilled! His repertoire of past events includes sets with progressive trance, psychedelic trance, hard techno, hard core, hard house, slow breaks, tribal and ambient. He mixes it up and keeps it interesting. His unfailing ability to read the crowd and know precisely what to plug in ensures that he leaves no stragglers behind on his musical excursions.
Primordial Ooze - Chilluminati - Chicago/Milwaukee
The Primordial Ooze project was created by DJ’s Kaiser Soze and S.O.T. Flowing sounds that seem to bubble and evolve like primitive life forms. These bundles of frequencies collaborate in a swarm like manner, creating intelligent patterns and movement. The Ooze sound creates a unique twist on the ever changing sound of psychedelic music. The regulars know them and love them as their favorite regional live pa for psytrance to date, and their sound keeps evolving itself for every performance.
Car0 - Chilluminati - Cedar Rapids, IA
Car0's progressive sounds have been making waves all over the Midwest psytrance scene. Her uncanny style and passion for the psytrance culture has made her a great addition to the Metatronic lineup. Car0 has represented Chilluminati at several of our events, including the past winter series Microtronic, and has been featured on Chilluminati.Radio (Microtronic.2).
PsychoHazzard - Mind Funk / Chilluminati - Chicago
Maxim Geht aka PsychoHazzard was born in Russia and moved with his family to Israel in 1995. it was there he was exposed to the psytrance music, that defined a point of no return for him. After partying for many years in psytrance scene he moved to the US in 2006 where he met The Chilluminati crew and there started his DJ path. For this short period of time he proved himself as a strong night time act with an onslaught of powerful, dark energy blasting from the speakers as your mind trips through the psychedelic landscape. He has since been playing all over the Midwest and has had determined success in his Moscow tour. In such a short time he has already shared the stage with some of the most talented artists in the scene today. So be prepared and straight jackets should be kept close by as the sounds of Psychohazzard are sure to take over your motor functions and is sure to be a highlight of the night.
Kent Vogel - Day Four / Chilluminati - Bloomington
With over a decade of mixing experience, Kent Vogel has defined a very unique style of atmospheric drum & bass which is a perfect compliment to psychedelic culture. Having been involved in the electronic music scene for many years, he has made his sounds known all over the country. As one of Chilluminati's favorites, the entire planet will soon feel the wrath of his chill iron grip.
Koru - Chilluminati - Chicago
As an integral part of The Chilluminati Network, Koru continues to set standards. Her sound style is matched with some of the best in the Midwest psytrance scene. Incredible track selection + flawless mixing = pure winning. Koru's talent not only rests with the music she plays, but also in her ability to create the environments that Chilluminati events thrive in.
Energon - Chilluminati - Chicago
Energon has been involved with The Chilluminati for many events--- playing the perfect sunrise, organizing huge deco installations, and overall event production. His morning-trance (full-on) style is a core component of what we stand for. He has had several mixes showcased on Chilluminati.Radio since its launch and serves as a staple in the Midwest psytrance scene for his melodic sounds.
Ascension - Chilluminati - Chicago
Ascension has been djing psytrance and psychedelic music since the fall of 2007. His love of powerful, high energy music is sure to warp your brainwaves into psychedelic euphoria. He has been working feverishly in the studio creating new, original tracks since 2009, and has released a handful of delectable samples. Dryerhose repair kit not included.
