Re: shpongle?

Shpongle is a well-known goatrance production duo.
Im not really into it but i do like some Hallunicogen stuff thats from one member of Shpongle.
This is is nice.. spaced out dub re-mixes of goatrance tracks: http://www.discogs.com/release/58836 by Hallucniogen.

Re: shpongle?

cool.. i will check these out.. a whole new genre i never even knew existed.. is this stuff rare or can i just go to the store and buy the record? are these american artists or european or what.. tell me more.. don;t be embarrassed..

i just found some forums where they posted some mixes and they aren;t bad.. like weird acid records mixed with lenny dee and klinik and some other shit i never even heard of..

Re: shpongle?

'Psybient, also known as "Ambient Psy", "Psychedelic Ambient", "Ambient Goa", "Ambient Psytrance" and more commonly within the Goa/psytrance scene as "Psychill" & "Psydub", is a genre of electronic music that combines elements of psychedelic trance, ambient, world music, new age and even ethereal wave.'

It makes me want to scrub myself clean with brillo.
Then set fire to myself.

They made a shitload of money mashing up 'The magical sound of the Panpipes XVI' and 'Healing world of the Dolphins IV'.

Do it your way, because everyone else is just weird.

Re: shpongle?

God, this stuff is SO popular on a mushroom cultivation forum I know and periodically people will post a thread about how they are just getting into "techno" thanks to their friend playing some while they were tripping...and this is what they mean--Shpongle. It's probably not without its merits but it's so wrapped up with horrible drug culture cliches that I just can't be objective about it at all.

I'll let you know next time I hear they're playing. They play at these insane cyber hippie events upstate with like Widespread Panic, Phil Lesh and Friends and other jam bands tongue

Re: shpongle?

ha ha.. i think the other dude in galaxy toobin  (eliot lipp) plays with these kind of people.. like infected mushroom or some shit like that.. it is like a whole other world of electronic music.. i think it is where all of the dead heads ended up after the jerry died..

there has to be some good shit in there.. i totally want to go to one of these events.. i am gonna get on the bill and just play unit mobius..

Re: shpongle?

ha, yes. Infected Mushroom is the other one they all like, I forgot.
They also play this music at the "full moon solstice celebration of uranus" parties at the COSM, Alex Grey's place. He's a 'visionary artist' as they say.

It's definitely another world...the one that's on the other side of the proverbial looking glass.
Definitely try to get a booking at one of these things man. Gullible hippies could be your untapped audience of thousands.

You mean there's goa trance that's psychedelic now!?!?!??! wink

I remember I used to listen to shpongle... the magic has long sense worn off hehe

I think I remember reading that the "duo" consists of a very strange looking producer and some old crusty guy who drops acid and plays the flute.

lol at this thread

Re: shpongle?

infected mushroom is ridiculously popular in Sydney...he (they?) seems to play here all the time and like the amount of hype is ridiculous. I can't say i've listened but I think that really puts me off giving it a try haha.

I don't mind some goa / psychedelic / whatever you call it stuff...I dont mind if I hear a little somewhere though I don't really know much about artists or anything either.
I remember when I was a kid listening to hallucinogen a lot but when I relistened to the album a year or 2 ago it didn't interest me at all

Re: shpongle?

It's pretty popular in Melbourne too..I have a group of crazy acid head friends who try and make me go to Australian festivals like Rainbow Serpent-three days in the bush with no running water and pounding psy trance - no thank you. I don't mind DJ Shulman & Shahar, psychedelic dub ambient stuff.

Music is a beautiful opiate, if you don't take it too seriously.

Re: shpongle?

dude this shit is cracking me up.

i just called eliot to ask him about shpongle.. he told me he just played with the hallucinogenic dude.. funny as hell.. i told him i want to do toobin live with shpongle.. that would be dope.. maybe shpongle dudes could toob with us?

they do like crazy festivals with tons of hippy kids in colorado.. man.. this is some other world stuff.. if i go it will be like some kind of cultural tourism.. like when i visited the scientology celebrity center..

Re: shpongle?

Oh sheeyot. It sounds like Riverdance meets the 303.

Well, if you do get on the bill you can call it 'Specongle'. Show them what's up with that UM. They'll flip.

Do it your way, because everyone else is just weird.
