Psytrance Supernova
I've been listening to the playlist "psytrance supernova" on Spotify nonstop. I absolutely love this genre. It's probably my favorite at this time. So with so many tracks finding their way into my earwaves, I'll be posting regular updates here putting a focus on those tracks.
I'll say a thing or two about them but really...the beauty is in the songs themselves. So stay tuned, there's a lot to talk about. |

Can't say I have much interest in this genre, but I think I speak for, well, me, when I say it's great to see you back writing again. Always interesting, informative and fun. I may drop in from time to time just to read your writing.
Welcome back!

There are countless genres that I could have decided to focus on for a journal, but this one in particular has certainly stood the test of time for me, and simultaneously has the added effect of still being able to sort of...blow my mind, in a way. There are things about the genre that are used throughout many tracks and a lot of artists do go for the same thing. But the deeper you dig into those artists and tracks, you find some personality that you'd only find with those particular artists.
One in particular has captivated me to a point where I will listen to this one track over and over and over again. It's one of those tracks where the intro, the melodies, and emotion throughout hit me on the inside. I tend to get pretty emotional with music in general, more so because of the way it hits, but when a song really hits, it hits hard: Spoiler for youtube:
The song title "You and I" gives off the sense of togetherness, but then near the end, you feel a strong sense of loneliness and separation. It all flows so smoothly to create one phenomenal track. Just on it's own, it's fantastic. But as a psytrance track, it's just so so so much better. It puts my imagination in a strange yet fascinating place. This song gets a repeat after repeat after repeat. It's definitely in my top 3 favorite tracks right now. |

Next up we have Computer Simulation by Inner State.
Spoiler for video:
I may sound a bit like a broken record, but again, I'd like to point out that the reason behind my enjoyment of this genre is because it manages to surprise me with each track I listen to. Each track I put in this journal is here because I feel like it's not only deserving of recognition, but they've also worked their way up to be some of my regular daily listens, and Computer Simulation is one of those. It starts off pretty slow, but gradually as the song goes on, you feel the growth of the song. Pretty deep, at least for me. You get your typical psytrance build up, but you know just from the first few seconds that you're in for something pretty spectacular. To the beats used, to just the overall feel of the song. This one in particular is just a personal favorite. It really captivates everything I love about this genre. It's simply a joy to listen to, is really all I can say. If I were to ever live inside a computer, this song is what I think it'd sound like, all the time. |
