I haven't really let you see, or hear, any goa-trance material that I've been producing through the years.
Back in 1996 I met Magnus Eriksson and we spoke of starting a goa-trance act together since we were both very fond of Astral Projection and M.F.G. It actually took one year for us to get our thumbs out of a certain part of the body .. but in the summer of 1997 we wrote five tracks ("Arcane Philosophy", "Definition of Mankind", "Extraterrestrial Elimination", "Submit To Fate" and "Superchrome") which gave us a gig at a local festival. "Definition of Mankind" actually peaked at no 6 on the trance chart on mp3.com. Ah, those were the days.....
Magnus and I split up (we're still friends) but I kept going on my own with the same name - Ypsilon 5. I wrote the track "Ground Zero" in 2000 which is the oldest track on my debut album "Binary Sky" (released in march, 2004) and a track still being in the live set and perhaps one of the best songs I've written. It featured a pounding bassline, angry electric guitas and screaming leads with a rock influenced beat.
But, as a saving soul, Patrik Rydberg joined the live setup and has also co-written the last two songs produced waiting to be released ("Abandonded" and "Interceptor").
Also on the album is one of my favourite tracks called "Cosmic Psychosis" (and it was the only track less than 10MB of size, hehe) which I thought you might wanted to hear.
If you want a preview of the "Binary Sky" album, you should point your browsers here.
Two new songs ("Titanium" and "Interceptor") can be found in the mp3 player at our unfinished site, Ypsilon5.com, where you also can hear "Beta Pictoris" from the "Binary Sky" album as well as the above mentioned track, "Ground Zero".
Enjoy! And, please, don't use drugs. It's just not cool.
Today I recommend: To lets your idols know what you think of them - I just got a reply from Matt Kirshen! =D
