2002.09.27 - Free Outdoor Psy-trance Party

Free Outdoor Psy-Trance Party this Friday 09/27

I know most people on this board will probably hit up Transa, but if you're looking for something a little darker and a lot more twisted, we'll be throwing a free psychedelic techno trance party down at Cherry Beach. The rain is supposed to end by nightfall so the weather should be ok, maybe a little chilly but nothing a few extra layers won't fix...plus we'll have a large bon fire and rumour has is that there'll be about 20 fire spinners/dancers which should be pretty cool to watch. Even if you have other plans, we'll be going quite late (9am or so) so stop by after, before or whenever...

Just in case some don't know, here are the directions:

..follow Cherry St. to it's very end (Cherry St. runs south from lakeshore blvd. and is just west of the dvp....the same street the DOCKS entertainment complex is on)...at the end of Cherry on the left is a gravel driveway leading to a large parking lot, follow the trail that leads into the sumac trees and a GIANT white drum...from there you should hear the music...we'll be in a little clearing to the right of that drum and on the other side of the sumacs...

The Line-up:
Generator (hard funky tech psy-trance)
Pharmakon (full-power/full-on psy-trance)
Urban Aliens (techy progressive minimal psy)
Basilisk (groovy/melodic psy-trance)
more to be confirmed...

As usual we'll also have:
blacklight and uv deco
spooky tree lights
fire pit
2kw sound system
cd give-aways

Remember to bring all the little things that facilitate a long evening of dancing or whatever such as;
blankets to sit on,
extra layers of clothing,
food, drink and other refreshments,
torches or flashlights,
friends,
and party spirit!!

WE should be all set up by around 9.30pm and will be winding things down around 9am. It's supoosed to go down to about 13C that night though that should be fairly comfortable with long sleeves.

So, spread the word and take advantage of what is likely the last opportunity we'll have to party under the stars for a while.

silly cops

The po arrived just when the party spirit was climbing (around 1.30). I guess the security patrol in the area got spooked by the completely full parking lot (no joke!) and 350+ people hanging around. The po arrived in full force (10 or 12 of them) and then stood around sort of stupefied at the full-on hippy freak-out that was going on (it was an om renuion it seems). Anyhow they were pretty respectful to the people, though they managed to scare most of them away. I couldn't convince them to let us keep the music going...they wanted us to tear down the gear, so we started moving shit around and looking busy and finally they left (about 45 later)....then we swiftly put it all back up and carried on until about 8.00 when the next shift of po came around (music died for about 10 minutes, they left, music went back on). Yeah, so those 100 or so who had the patience to stick around had a pretty good time...even a bunch of hulla ravers turned up in the morning. I think next time we'll find a lower profile venue...stay tuned

p.s. don't forget to check out our bi-weekly event at Labyrinth Lounge (this friday), featuring psy-trance upstairs and melodic/uplifting trance downstairs...cover is $5

Both as Neuromotor and as one half of Plastyk Elephant, he has released two full-length albums along-side releases on many compilations. Fresh from touring Europe, South America, and Japan, Neuromotor will be giving Toronto one of his characteristically high energy live performances plus a DJ set packed with killer unreleased tracks. the DAT mafia trance indeed!

for the summer's first
BEACH TRANCE PARTY
@ the end of Cherry St.

No cover, but we are accepting food and money donations for charity.

----- and, posted later on:

First off, I forgot to mention that the sunday night beach party is
being organized by both MDK and C&J!

For any questions/info my email is actually dj_pharmakon@yahoo.ca

BTW, there'll be lots of give-aways for those who come out on
Saturday....I have two new CD's which I'll be giving out (one is
Psy-trance, the other hard trance) and there will be fresh fruit and
candy throughout the night and possibly t-shirt giveaways as well. So
if you're hungry,, lacking clothes or music be sure to stop by.


Other info:
 The party will be on the left side of the end of Cherry St. (FOr those
who don't know, Cherry St. is the street that the DOCKS is located
on; follow it to the end and there is a large gravel lot, look to the left of
this lot and you will see a gravel roadway which will take you to
another lot; at the far end of this lot there is some trees and bush, go
through there and follow the music....we'll either be set up just by the
beachfront or we may be set up a little further in from the beach in a
little clearing - either way you'll hear where we are)

The line-up: not completely confirmed but for sure you'll see St. Pete,
Pharmakon, MDK, John D & DAM, etc.

Basically there'll be some Psy-trance, uplifting trance, acid techno
and some more trance

We'd appreciate it if people brought some food donations, barring that
perhaps a buck or two would be nice.....but if you can't then that's OK
too

Time: probably around 10ish until sunrise at least

I hope that's enough info.

DJ Pharmakon

p.s. I'll have the set-times for Saturday night posted shortly...little
else needs to be said about saturday, those who've gone will tell you
it's always a sick party with a unique vibe
