Conscious Monkeys (Bassment Room): Zetan Spore - (Aardvark Records, Psylicious) LIVE!http://www.myspace.com/zetanspore1 http://www.zetanspore.co.uk/ Having played their first gig in 1997 and being more motivated by the live side of music, they have kept their set-up almost entirely hardware-based for live performance and after playing hundreds of gigs over the coming years, have remained one of the few genuinely live psytrance acts around. The highlights of Zetan Spore's extensive live performances include playing to a 25,000 strong crowd at the Euphoria Festival in Singapore, headline sets for Antiworld and Synergy Project, plus top slots at Sunrise, Waveform and Eastern Haze festivals, not to mention hundreds of other live appearances at festivals, live music venues and clubs. Their music can best be described as driving, euphoric psytrance, breaking in huge psychedelic waves of energy and positivity, with didgeridoo-fuelled tribal breaks and searing guitar riffs adding more depth and power to their sound. Having a reputation for incredibly energetic and uplifting live performances, and taking the crowd to a whole new level, they've built up a large and enthusiastic following and never fail to rock the dancefloor. Paul Didge - (Psylicious) LIVE!http://www.myspace.com/pauldidge http://www.pauldidge.co.uk Paul didge has been playing the didgeridoo for 15 years and is known as one of the UKS leading didgerioo players(quoted by BBC radio Wiltshire), blending the trance inducing sound of the didgeridoo with electronic music ranging from chill out to trance and drum'n' bass. He has played internationally with various Djs and live acts starting with a residency at Trance Buddha psy-trance club Amsterdam(1997),Which led to a appearance at the Dance Valley festival to 15,000 people. He has appeared live and on recordings with Baladidge, Atmosfire and Astral Projection(Israel), Dragonsfly, I Fly, C.D.F, El-plazmo, Mother Gong, Altered native, Dreamachine, ZubZUB, Trancient Dreams, OOOD, Eat Static and Voice of Cod(U.K) and supported the Orb in Israel. Pauls latest musical endeavors include Folk Stomper (Rohan White) on flutes, melodica, percussion and various weird sounds and zubzubs mindfux drops in on time to time to bang his drums and play abit of synth! This extra live element to pauls live set adds another musical dimension to the already psychedellic world of pauls music.
