Iron Lotus vs Jhesha - Meanings of Terror

fucking sickkk, love it, always enjoy ya sets dudeee!! 

- NIGHT TERRORS -
"Terror by day, terror by night,
Gauntlets of faith, hollow inside.
Best laid plans, lost in sight,
Purpose and meaning become benign.

Find your courage, find your spine,
Nothing can kill your right to life.
In your own self, become and entwine,
Face yourself and embrace the light."

A return to my psychedelic roots and a journey into the aggressive and twisted side of Twilight Psytrance.
Shed your pain and anguish, throw yourself into the fire - submit to the raw power of psychedelic full-on.

Dedicated to my beautiful friend Myia - you inspired me to record this mix many months ago and you've left a hole in my heart that will never be filled. 
Rest easy gorgeous.

Megapixel @ Orin-Aya Festival, QLD, 2022.

[148 - 145bpm] Turn it up loud !! Enjoy xox

Megapixel @ Orin-Aya Festival 2022 [Grasshopper Recs]

Hi guys, this is my set from New Dawn. I had an absolute blast playing this one with plenty of energy from the crowd as we ramped it up for the final night.

Anomaly @ New Dawn 2022/23 6:30pm Monday

This is the first time I have shared Psyphoria live as a presentation online. 

Over the years there has been a lot of confusion about my music and my being.

Some people perceive that my music is dark, some perceive it as light.

The truth is that it is not light or dark it is the grey between.

Since 2005 I have been on a path to share magic with the world, through what used to be DJ Psyphoria FULL POWER!!! And since evolved into the Psyphoria live act.

Published tracks from the set are found on Kaos Krew Records, Lysergic Records and Phonix records and MMD records.

All tracks written produced engineered and mastered by myself with collaborations between myself and Singularity, Kismet and a remix of Exailes 2004 Classic the world is our dancefloor originally released by the Chemical Crew.

- CHILDREN OF THE NIGHT -
"We are the storm, the outcast and scorn
Powerful in number and wise in form
We face our terror with our shadow adorned
We are what's broken and we are reborn

With freedom we move, through struggle we're torn
We see our darkness, our crown of thorns
Through life we fear, through life we mourn
We are the children whose fate is sworn.."

Ascension Stage Manager @ Esoteric Festival
Australian DJ Rep @ MMD Records

- BIO -
Dirge is the Twilight Psytrance project of Melbourne born Mike O'Shard.

For 10 years he has spread a sinister signal across Australian dance floors - a dark broadcast, transmitted by shadow; a message sent by the frequency of night.

Mike currently represents MMD Records from Cape Town, South Africa and manages the Ascension Stage at Esoteric Festival in Donald, VIC.


- CONCEPT -
A 'Dirge' is defined as a lament for the dead; as a mournful song, piece of music or sound. 

Almost a decade ago in the moonlit forest of Mount Disappointment, a strange message was received. Subtle at first; a barely perceptible hum underneath the noise of the local broadcast network, it was transmitted with one purpose - to corrupt the mind of a local human target and spread, relentlessly. Within the darker reaches of its human host body's imagination, this message would bide its time and grow - as a quiet voice in the darkness; as a ghost in the machine - until one day, it would be noticed.

On the surface, all was normal - a day like any other, until a disruption was felt within the network. It was only the slightest of shimmers; a most subtle shift in the pitch of the broadcast's frequency - but for one small moment, the broadcast faltered and faded out long enough for the disruption to be registered on the system. A team was deployed to investigate. 

Investigating the disruption, the message was discovered - and was identified as virulent. It had grown in such great measure that the network's signal, once thought to be untouchable, had been hijacked entirely. The broadcast was now a distorted shade of its former self. 

No-one had noticed the message spread, nor the signal grow. No-one had heard it whisper, as it redirected every connection on the network's server. No-one had heard its screams of contempt and rage, as it ceaselessly multiplied itself in the background... 

No-one had time to respond as the Signal, now a seething cacophony of sound, swallowed the network whole. 

The disruption had not been felt within the original network - there was nothing of it left. The disruption had been felt as the last remainders of the original network were extinguished, leaving only a strange and sinister signal in its place.

In that moment, a new message was received - one word, uttered in an unfamiliar tongue; in an endlessly repeating loop - "Dirge..."
