On Friday 12th October, Psy-Trance club brand Psy-Co (The Psychedelic Co-Operative) celebrates its first birthday with the return of legendary Russian DJ & Producer Astrix, World renowned for his work internationally as a rare talent that currently resides in a Top 40 position in the DJ Mag Top 100 DJ Chart. Hosted at South Parade Pier, one of Portsmouth’s oldest landmark venues this ‘psychedelic evening of full fat dance’ takes place from 9pm – 3am and promises to be a birthday session of epic proportions.
The event, which is hosted in association with Hedonic is also a unique opportunity to launch Astrix’s eagerly awaited UK CD Album – ‘Red Means Distortion’ which is a testament to his signature high quality production. Astrix aka Avi Schmailov was born in Russia in the early 80’s and grew up in Tel-Aviv spinning early 80’s and electronica from as early as 1995; Astrix discovered his love for Goa Trance worked nicely with his passion for electronica and a feel for a chaotic dancefloor. This was reflected in his first solo album production, ‘Eye To Eye’ on HOM-Mega Records which was received with critical acclaim for it’s superior production and “striking a fine balance between the chaos of a dancefloor and the coolness of at-home listening”. Consistently remaining true to his style and his roots, Astrix’s third studio album continues this tradition of outstanding production and as a DJ, Astrix brings this exceptional style with him to the Main Stage at Psy-Co which forms part of a massive string of international dates seeing the renowned headliner and DJ Mag cover star performing right around the Globe including Japan, the United States, Israel and Mexico and working with such established parties as Anti-World, South West Four, Pacha, Skol Beats and the Love Parade.
Joining him will be another high flyer in the Psy-Trance scene, Kristian, whom has a CV that boasts performances at clubs and festivals in over 19 countries and is a regular at some of the UK’s biggest parties at venues such as Brixton Academy and Alexandra Palace hosted by some of the countries mightiest brands including Slinky and Knowhere. He’s a regular guest on Kiss FM, Ministry Of Sound Radio and Paul Van Dyk’s VONYC station and regularly receives support and praise for his work from some of the most distinguished names in the scene today including World Trance hero Christopher Lawrence.
Psy-Co resident, co-promoter and South Coast star Matt Lorraine who has become a regular on the Psy-Trance and Hard Dance scene will also be part of this roof raising line-up and has had the fine opportunity of playing alongside some of the biggest names within the international scene including EVP, Djavu and Digit Cult. Matt has also performed at the Nova Festival in Belgium, had two mixes on Ministry of Sound’s Euphoria radio show and stars on the line-up at the massive Anti-World events on a regular basis.
Rounding off the line-up nicely are two aspiring Psy-Trance performers that graft hard to make waves at the very forefront of their scene; Monster and Psy-Co resident Ryan Bushell. Monster was the face behind South End’s infamous club event brand Munch – which was the biggest Trance party in the city and ran successfully for five years. He is now the driving force behind Quarantine after discovering his passion for Psy-Trance and is a regular on Unite Radio. Ryan has been DJ’ing for 7 years but has had a driving passion for Psy-Trance for much longer and brings his unique style to the Main Stage for this almighty night of outstanding Psy-Trance!
Also boasting outstanding visuals from www.bluerooms.com, a 20k Funktion One sound system, stalls by Hedonic and friends and an unbeatable atmosphere produced by today’s frontline of outstanding Psy-Trance artists; Psy-Co’s first birthday promises to be a wild party of uplifting, driving, upfront Psy-Trance headlined by an artist that can only be described as an eye-opening, foundation shaking talent, World famous for his unique genius as a recording artist and DJ.
