i was told from next month only one half moon party a month

As there is only 1 half moon a month technically then that figures

Bring on the 1/4 moon and 1/8 moon parties yeah!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[lulea]

big thanks for your replies! if halfmoon runs only one a month, it could be that there is the first sign of agree- ment, and situation calmed down some... i hope so! peace, lu

there are 2 halfmoons per month and there will be two halfmoon partys per month again.

Reason: Halfmoon Team had started to make a new site deep in the jungle at the end of a rubber tree plantation. The site was advanced quite well and a big opening ahaed, but the construction work were stopped by the "authoreties" recently. Meanwhile they can make a second party event per month!

Please educate me: "psy-parties?" Sounds like a major drug overdose!

Something like....once upon a time where there was psychoactive drugs.

Now primarily alcohol.

:

psy-trance = the music-style of the partie! - u don't NEED any drugs, alchol incl., only the music flows.u... - o.k. sometimes,

someones, -maybe- think: a little help from -natural/chemical- substances can do no harm... u have the choice! and parties with different music-style (eg. summer jam/reggae, hiphop-events etc.) - no psy - drugs play a rule at any kind of partie (and other freetime-amusements), this has been years ago like this, this is nowadays like this and this will be same-same in future - it's the big theme of our social life and community in every generation - and alcohol is always around... chook-dee kah! lu

Psy-Trance - Very plippy ploppy hands-in-the-air pseudo-religious electronic dance music, typified by a slightly too high downpitched short decay kick drum and really squeally 303ish synths with oscillating filters. Extremely popular in Israel, Goa and along hippy trails in coastal Brazil - afficionados tend to love it exclusively over all other music but for me it's awkwardly close to techno but just not right - I like things a bit grittier having travelled the european Teknival circuit for a few summers in the late 90's/early 00's.

I really wish someone played some proper solid techno (apart from me in my house) Subhead, Neil Landstrumm, Chicago-esque shuffled and jackin techno at 128 - 140bpm - it's the one, single thing I miss from the UK! I love tough dance music but psy-trance is too fluffy for me. :-( - On a trancier tip a bit of old acid ala Hardfloor or Hallucinogen wouldn't go amiss.

Wow, I remember the acid-minimal-hardcore-techno in the Teknivals in Europe in the late nineties. French tribes push it

Haha...I recall this too...the birth of the house/trance started in...Belgium...? Typical era btw.

Early hard core, long dark tunnel nuff said ! Or some serious loud Drum and bass before all the MC crap ruined it.
