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 ve been sharing the same love for melodic psychedelic trance for years. They created Suntrip to release more melodic psytrance like in the good old times, but with modern production. Filteria is one of Suntrip s headliners with 4 albums full of mind blowing tracks & uplifting psychedelic melodies. In 2009 only, the mythic Daze of Our Lives and a digital Remix album saw the light. RA, Khetzal and Goasia provide us with what Suntrip is well known for: true storytelling Goa trance albums with down and uptempo spiritual and floating melodies. Afgin and Merr0w and Radical Distortion deliver pure classical Goa souns from sensitive sunrise music to massive drives and melodies! Dimension 5 s classic Transdimensional was remastered & re-issued, and it still blows dance floors! The darker side of Suntrip is embodied by Ka-Sol with a perfect mix between melodic, dark & twisted soundscapes. At the opposite, Electrypnose, known worldwide, also joined Suntrip for an ambient album. Suntrip released 6 compilations as well, featuring talented artists within the Goa and Ambient scenes as well as new talents. Praising morning trance melodies or acidic neuron smashers, each Suntrip compilation offers a unique thematic experience. Recent Releases: SUNCD19: VA Temple of Chaos (May 2010) SUNCD20: Electrypnose Sweet Sadness (nov 2010) SUNCD21: Antares - Exodus (mar 2011) SUNCD22: Artifact303 Energy Waves (may 2011) SUNCD23: E-Mantra Pathfinder (nov 2011) Album Profile: Shaltu, an ancient Amerindian word for the helping spirits of dancing shamans, brings us back to our Suntrip roots! Deep trance & dance music for people that like warm, spiralling, full power melodic old school Goa Trance! Like usual with our compilations Shaltu features a mix between known names and newcomers. The opener by veteran RA is pure deep, spiritual, Goa-Trance followed by two emotional morning-monsters filled with spirals and melodies by Crossing Mind and Nebula Meltdown! They are followed by three in-your-face dancefloor tsunamis that will fit perfectly the climax of every wild party! Filteria s remix of Shakta s classic Lepton Head is simply stellar, while newcomers InnerSpace & Ephedra vs Imba show us that there is a new generation of crazy musicians! The last part of Shaltu brings us back into deep, warm morning music Music for epic sunrises! The debut of Shani Yantra, and the floating remix of RA s Time Current by E-Mantra give us a new definition of Goa trance with modern production. The Macedonian Sirius ends this compilation with a very melodic masterpiece! Rarely have we been so satisfied with the result of a compilation and we hope you ll share that feeling! Recently, E-Mantra, Antares offered dawn-to-dusk acidic journeys, featuring mystical to intricate atmospheres. Artifact303 blew up the scene last spring with his outstanding Back to Space album. They are now booked in major parties and festivals, don t miss them!
