DJ Basilisk ranges widely on SILICON OVERMIND 2, the second edition of a mix series exploring the many permutations of psychedelic techno and beyond. Embark upon a grand tour of many different moods and styles, from midtempo breaks and dub techno to minimal and progressive psytrance. This study in contrasts showcases Basilisk's smooth and harmonic mixing style as well as several tracks from Techgnosis Records, the psychedelic techno label he co-founded alongside Ben Rama in 2015. Ultimately the aim is to induce a hypnotic and, at times, euphoric effect, always with an ear for the transformative power of sound!

Style: psychedelic techno, techno, dub techno, progressive psytrance, minimal psytrance, midtempo breaks, IDM, etc. 29 tracks in 100 minutes ranging from 110 to 132 BPM!

Note: this mix was originally posted as Electric Soul Radio 14.

Psytrance, techno, electro, house, trance, acid, breaks, bass, IDM, ambient—you name it, I probably spin it. My mixes fluidly combine different genres into harmonic journeys that defy convention. I encourage you to browse around and get lost in some of the many sonic microcosms I have meticulously curated over the years. Nearly all mixes posted here are available for download on my homepage.

I am open to invitations to provide guest mixes in a variety of styles as long as the details are interesting. Drop me a line if you have more reach than I do, just be sure to articulate your concept!

Properly mastered promos are welcome. Also accepting professional demos for my work with Ektoplazm and Techgnosis.
