Spectral Quartz is a psytrance project of 26y.o. Slovakian guy mainly based in London(UK).  His passion for music started when he was teenager and used to hang out with Punks listening to Hardcore music. As we evolve like human beings, about his 20s he discovered dark side of drum and bass and started his first hard drum and bass project. Sooner after he realized the tempo and vibe of this music is not really what he is into and he randomly discovered the psytrance scene and fell in love with it. He was always amazed by sound and psytrance music offered him a wide range of frequencies.

This project is mainly focused on psytrance, as the name says the sound is very spectral and unique. The producer mixes melodic aspects with very noisy ones in really bassy and pulsating way. Music contains rich basslines and is somwhere between light and dark psytrance. Whole idea is to keep balance, Ying-Yang. 

The production can be influenced by various genres, artist is really open in case of music and music styles varieties. So you can hear bit sparks of other styles or some ethnic influences. 

We are the One. Unity is the Key!
