Shantam - 9:00PM - 10:00PM
One of the youngest producers on the block in the Indian scene Shantam believes in only playing his own compositions. His sound is really fresh and a mix of a multiple genres ranging from deep chill to groovy progressive psychedelic.
His school of thought is truly original, with a debut album on its way and a couple of singles soon to be released. Shantam is one talented Live Act to watch out for.
Recently Shantam also produced his Debut album “The Trickery of Being” which has been getting great responses worldwide.
Loopus in Fabula - 10:00PM - 11:00PM
Matteo has been making music for more than 10 years now, starting with an electro-jazz background (he use to play sax) and moving towards trance around 1999. As Loopus in Fabula he released tracks on various labels from all over the world including Digital Psionics, Flow, Exogenic, Candyflip The debut album “Loopus in fabula” was released by the Australian label, Demon Tea Records (2002). All the other 3 albums where released on his own label Fabula records: “Astrofunk” (2003), “Fat Ladies Bingo” (2006)and “Fizzy beats” (2010).
Also as Dj Loopus Matteo released on Fabula records the compilation “Ultrapop’ (2004) and “Ultrapop2″(2007) where he expose his music and djing philosophy. The new “Ultrapop 3″ will be released in spring 2011…artist in the compilations include Kiwa, Vishnudata, Tom Cosm, Kino Oko, Krumelur, Eat Static…
Loopus has established a reputation for the so called “funkedelic” sound : a mixture of psytrance and funky disco sounds…there’s actually more (or less), a total free crossover of influences with an electro, progressive, jazzy, circus feeling blended with the severe discipline of psytrance: a mind twisting psychedelia with a running full baseline…
Loopus has played up to now in almost every corner of the psytrance world and has developed a blended live+djset featuring a special task: slowly bringing the dancefloor into a relaxed, happy, funky atmosphere full of laughs and funny smiles.
