2 Label Profile: Showing alternatives to nowadays psy-trance scene, Suntrip focuses on melodic psychedelic music in all its forms. All original music ranging from melodic goa trance to melodic deep ambient are welcome! History: The label Suntrip Records was set up in the summer of 2004 by Fabien Mars, one of the founders of the Psynews.org website and Joske Anoebis, a Belgian DJ and Party-organiser. They created Suntrip to release more melodic psy-trance like in the good old times, but with modern production. Filteria is one of Suntrip s headliners with 5 albums full of mind blowing tracks & uplifting psychedelic melodies. His last album, Lost in the Wild, was released only a few months ago! Also E-Mantra released 3 full power psychedelic stormers on Suntrip already. His 3 rd Nemesis album was our latest release Ra, Khetzal, Goasia (with two albums), Afgin, Antares, Merr0w, Radical Distortion and Artifact303 provide us with what Suntrip is well known for: true storytelling Goa trance albums with down and uptempo spiritual floating sunrise music to massive dancefloor material filled with acid sounds and beautiful harmonies! In 2007 Transdimensional, Dimension 5 s classic, was remastered, and it still blows dance floors! The darker side of Suntrip is embodied by Ka-Sol with a perfect mix between melodic, dark &twisted goatrance. At the opposite, Electrypnose also joined Suntrip for an ambient album. Recent Releases: SUNCD30: Filteria Lost in the Wild SUNCD31 E-Mantra Nemesis SUNCD32 VA Ten Spins Around The Sun SUNCD33 Goasia Amphibians from Spacedock Album Profile: Shakta aka Seb Taylor needs no introduction. Since 1995 he has been taking this scene in force with his powerful, rhythmic, acidic old school goa-trance & ambient under different names Shakta, Somaton, Digitalis, Kaya Project, Hibernation,! Many of his fabulous 90s tracks were released only on vinyl or rare compilations, and some never saw the light on a regular release. Because of that we decided to gather the best of those tracks and remaster them! The result is mind blowing. Eleven Shakta & Somaton tracks of which two were never released before! The remastering also made sure that the old and sometimes rather bad or muddy sound got upgraded to modern standards, which makes sure the tracks will be hits even on today s dance floors! During the big Goa-revival last year, Shakta tested all the tracks on many Suntrip parties and big festivals such as SUN Festival, and the result was astonishing. There is clearly no expiry date on good music! The past is the future! Last year was outstanding with an unreleased album made by Goa-legend Dimension 5, followed by our 8 th compilation Blacklight Moments, then the more subtle, psy-trance influenced debut album of Nebula Meltdown and the fantastic Filteria s killer album Lost in the Wild. This year saw the 7 th album of E-Mantra and the Ten Spins Around The Sun compilation celebrating Suntrip s 10 th birthday. Praising morning trance melodies or acidic neuron smashers, each Suntrip release offers a unique thematic experience!

Press & marketing: Suntrip Parties: Because Suntrip exists 10 years in 2014, we organised a world tour of Suntrip parties with mostly our artists. This tour was a big success. We did label parties in Japan, Germany, Israel, Spain, Croatia, Belgium, Norway, UK, Finland, Serbia and Brasil! The years before we did a lot of other parties in the countries above as well. Our parties involved virtually all artists from the label, like Filteria, Khetzal, Ka-Sol, Goasia, Merr0w, Afgin, Dimension 5, Ra, E-Mantra, Artifact303, Antares, But also many non Suntrip artists were invited, like Jaia, Blue Planet Corporation, California Sunshine, Mystica, Sandman, Shidapu, NDMA, Moonweed, Crossing Mind, It s clear goa-trance has a big revival. Suntrip live acts&dj s:many of our live-acts such as Filteria, Ra, Goasia, E-Mantra, Artifact and dj s such as Anoebis, Ine, Lord Flames, are booked every week. They have played all over the world and drove the dancefloors crazy on many big festivals (such as Boom Festival, Aurora festival, UniversoParalello, Antaris, Lost Theory, Ozora, Freedom, ) But also many smaller festivals and cosy parties invited Suntrip artists incountries such as Israel, Japan, Sweden, Finland, Germany, Portugal, Switzerland, Mexico, Romania, Hungary, Ukraine, France, Holland
