"It's not just about picking the right track for the moment or delivering a flawless performance.
It's also not just about booking the most suiting acts and designing a stunning party concept.
No.. In this case, it's about a incomparably passioned person who is telling her own unique psychedelic story for almost ten years now...
Rooted in the Netherlands, Jorine shaped the intimate interrelatedness between her and the cruddy climes of dark psychedelic music in the sweet scene of Germany.
With a decent mixture of magic and madness, this tainted troublemaker is carefully challenging a wide variety of disciplines within the psychedelic cosmos: From delivering never-ending sets and organizing rumply raves to the accurate execution of stage and booking management.
Jorine sets space into a wide range of music:
from smooth, gnarly and bushy dark-progressive/techno tunes straightforward into the deepest Forest, this smooth selector always will find a humorous and innovative way to send you on the journey you didn't even know you always needed.
Feel warmly invited to let this versatile artist demonstrate her quirky quintessence of psychedelic art and culture!"

Starting in the year of 2008 with electronic music, he felt an eager to create twisting sounds and noises that had been bugging his head and only when he felt he accomplished it he could find peace of mind. The tunes may vary from Dark Progressive/Psygressive with a “twisted-tech-glitch”-touch to different E.D.M genres such as Techno, Minimal, Deep/Tech and House. Hellquist is sure to continue serving us psy-heads with his “digital-acid-deep-in-the-Swedish-forest”-kind of mind altering musical creations.

Universal Tribe Records proudly presents: The ‘Australiens’ Remixes

After years in the making, we are beyond excited to unveil one of the most anticipated releases in the history of Universal Tribe Records, a project that pays tribute to the legacy of a modern classic while breathing new life into its story.

Originally sparked during Freedom Fighters’ debut tour of Australia, Australiens quickly evolved into an iconic collaboration with progressive techno powerhouses Martin Vice & Michael Banel (MVMB). The track was later released in 2016 as part of MVMB’s debut album on Iboga Records, capturing a moment in time that merged the raw, open energy of the Australian scene with an international touch of cinematic psychedelia.

Now, nine years on, we’ve been granted the rare opportunity to reimagine this masterpiece with a signature Universal Tribe twist. What has emerged is a remix compilation that honours the past while surging forward, a curated celebration of Bush Prog brought to life by some of Australia’s most respected pioneers and the next generation of sonic storytellers, artists known for delivering the finest sounds our scene has to offer.

Featuring transformative remixes by Pspiralife, Ryanosaurus, Sumiruna, Scionaugh, and Doonz, this release brings a fresh, driving perspective to a timeless track, layered, deep, and completely dialled in to the unique rhythm of the Australian bush.

One thing’s for sure: with this release, the journey doesn’t stop,
we just go on, and on, and on...
