It made me happy to see so many people (young and old) getting down to house and breaks at Discotropolis this weekend. It gave me some optimism, and with that, it made me want to do more to make the rave-going community in Arizona aware of just how much musical variety is available to them. There are some sounds/styles in dance music that don't get much (if any) representation or exposure in the raves and clubs out here. There are also a lot of very talented and experienced DJs living in Arizona that don't play out much at all - many of these people have been doing this a long time and have much to offer that is unique.

So, for starters, I want this thread to be a place where we all share links to and talk about music. I'd really like it to be one of the "serious" threads here on DSI (with minimal unrelated chatter), where everybody shares links to music that they think is special, unique, different, interesting, etc. Music is, after all, the main reason we're here.

I'll start:

The Loudspeaker
DJ Matty
The Fresh Page - all sorts of House
FWD.DJ
Area 709 (Canada)
Moontribe (California)
Dan Efex (Chicago)

Those are just a few. There should be enough there to keep you all busy for weeks. I hope you all take some time to check this stuff out - there's a lot out there that you're not getting to hear at parties, and you might like some of it.

Cheers!

'Nuff said ;)

cant wait for fuse...synergy you better be there like it says you will...i wnt to hear u spin your psych trance....Hell yea:)

Uhh, well, I hate to disappoint you, but it is unlikely that I'll be playing psytrance. I played psytrance at Fire Flower. I'll be playing slower stuff at Fusion, but it'll be good music anyway. Give it a shot.

Cheers!

Wish there'd been less sound bleed between the outdoor stages, but it was pretty good.

Anyone? Bueller?

Well without wanting to seem like I'm spamming your fine AZ group, take a look at our group page for the DiabloTraxx label based out of the UK! We're actually in talks with several promoters and the mighty Sissko to bring our live PA out later this year, so to give you a little taster, have a look at our group at iluvDT.com!!!

A couple of the links need refreshing as we've crashed several download servers due to the sheer volume of downloads, so please do let us know if there's any that aren't working!!

So, has anyone checked out any of the great music people have posted?

Yeah checked out the Psy radio - was rather storming!!

*crickets chirping*

*steps on cricket*

Diablo, I have just joined this group, so damned nice to see you're here!

Oh, please take a quick look at my profile to see what I'm about, by the way my 51st birthday was on 31st July 2008.

I hope I am not spamming you either, but please do take a good look at my freind, Diablo's Group too, I do highly reccomend it!

For your information, I have only been mixing seriously since May 2008, so I am new and need some Feedback to Improve.

To give you a general idea of a part of The Underground Rave Music Scene in Great Britain this will give you a rough idea. Please bare in mind that I am rather new, (and there are a lot of Brilliant DJ's in Great Britain Mixing the Vast Spectrum of Genres within Rave).
