Sonic Navigators for the evening will be??..

Ghreg on Earth ? Wirikuta Records (www.phosphene.org/)

In 1994 Ghreg got his first taste of the emerging sounds of Trance and within two years began composing his own material in his small bedroom studio. Over the next few years his distinctive sound, heavily influenced by his passion for Industrial Music from the 1980s, IDM from the early 90s and Dark Ambient, evolved and found its way into parties and festivals throughout the United States and the World. Festivals he has performed at include the Ypy Poty Festival on the Ubatamarium Beach in Brazil in February 2002, the Phoenix Festival in Portland Oregon in July 2002, and the AsOne Festival in Eugene Oregon in the summer of 2003.

Over the years Ghreg On Earth, also known as Phosphene (a studio side project for experimental trancescapes and ambient modes), has had numerous releases on labels such as USTA (Israel), TimeCode (South Africa), Soular Records (USA), & Spectral Concepts (USA). Upcoming releases are scheduled for InnerSound/Ipsyde (Italy), Spontaneous Aerobics (Germany) & Mistress Of Evil (USA). He has also held countless spots at parties with artists such as Xenomorph, MOS, Olli Wisdom, Hux Flux and Anti, with his unique sound finding it?s way into the sets of Kris Kylven, Aleph (Phyx), Xenomorph, Penta and Goa Gil, to name a few.

Ghreg currently calls San Francisco, CA, his home, where he has spent the last four years promoting the emerging twisted sounds coming from North America and abroad as A&R Manager for Spectral Concepts.

His intention is to convey a diverse range of powerful trance dancing experiences to the planet. With this intention in mind, he is quickly being recognized as one of the most sought after psychedlic electronic music producers.

Mubali ? Trishula Records
(www.trishula-records.com)

Mubali is a psychedelic trance dj/producer living a couple hours outside San Francisco, California.
He has been a dj for several years and his styles have varied during the course of the past few years... He mainly spins Psychedelic Trance and occasionally Drum & Bass/ Jungle.
He will have his first three releases coming up on the Mistress of Evil label, on Illumination Records and on the second compilation from Trishula Records "Mushy Mystery". Later in 2005 he will release his debut album with Trishula Records. He was a violist for 7 years in his adolescence and has been a fan of all types of music, instrumental and non... He is a big fan of all types of psychedelic music, as well as funk, jazz, rock, and heavy metal.... He has found that in electronic dance music, a lot of the structure is similar to classical music. He also has been researching a lot of classical music to use as structural inspiration for his own pieces...
At the moment Mubali is working on his debut album, release date will be in autumn. Stay tuned.


Fractal Cowboys ? Mistress of Evil
(www.mistressofevil.com/)

Donning their Electromagnetic Trans linguistic Helmets, our heroes wait with white knuckles and sweaty brows. It is 1am and the maddening thuds dig into their chakras as they gyrate uncontrollably. The two-step is a complicated dance, especially when two feet are involved! All the cowboys' cousins and all the cowboys' sheeps have arrived at the barnyard hoedown. They are wondering if the Tractor Cowboys will be playing Country music, or Western. But alas, our heroes know well that their time has come.

It is now 1:15am and time for our 'boys to take the stage. The cows stop mooing. The bubbas stop having sex with the sheep. The oil wells stop pumping. All cowboy hats are tipped to the two in the spotlight, behind the chicken wire.

Truth be told, they had been playing both Country AND Western until just recently. Then one night while tipping cows, they saw a Bigfoot. They followed it across the field and into the woods before they noticed a large, saucer-shaped craft hovering just 6 feet above their heads. A ghost flutters near a corpse which has re-animated. As several vampires and a black dragon close in on our heroes, a sudden, brilliant flash of light blinds the Tractor Cowboys.

As their vision returns, they see Jesus in a hand basket streaking toward them.

"Jesus Christ!" the fractured cowboys scream.

He just smiles and says, "I'm goin' to Hell, you want to join me?"

Their knuckles turn white and their brows begin to sweat.

"Just kidding!"

And with one swish of his hand, Jesus turned those dirty monsters into noxious shrubs.

The frazzled cowpokes fell to their knees and said, "Thank you, Jesus!"

Then Jesus turned into Captain Zorbak of Alpha Centauri Prime (Galaktik Federation) and said unto them:

"Take these strange sounds and arrange them in a harmonious manner. Add a throbbing beat so people can dance to it. Change your name from the Tractor Cowboys to the Fractal Cowboys. And for galaxy's sake, change your pants! You look like you've seen a ghost or something!"

And this is how the Fractal Cowboys were born!
Can you believe that?

For those of you who are willing to brave the whole evening, there?s a special treat only 5 minutes driving distance from the venue. There?s a man-made swimming hole that?s open to the public. It costs $1 to swim as long as you want. Believe me when I say that you will either need it or want it by noon on Sunday. Directions will be available on the website, and will also be provided at the concessions stand throughout the party.

Lastly I would like to make a point in saying that the dance floor of a psytrance party is a very special place. A place where souls are cleansed, a place where dreams come true, and a place where energy is not only felt but seen. The dance floor area at our parties is full of positive energy only if you bring it with you. We invite you to come join us in our special forest land to celebrate life as it abounds around us. See you on the dance floor.
