TRANSMISSIONS FROM UTOPIA is a series of retro-futuristic mixes inaugurated by DJ Basilisk in 2022. Every mix in this series explores period of electronic music history, typically around the turn of the millennium, with extra attention directed toward lesser known or appreciated styles and movements. Length varies according to the trajectory of each mix.

Requests for this series are welcome! Currently I'm working on mixes documenting: West Coast progressive house, breaks, and "desert trance" of the 1990s; New Beat and the precursors of Goa trance from 1993 and earlier; a remake (or reinterpretation) of Paul Oakenfold's infamous "Goa Mix"; a return to the quirk minimal techno sound of the 2000s; and several more...

Transmissions From Utopia: Retro-Futuristic Explorations of Vanished Musical Movements

Basilisk explores the secret origins of the modern psychedelic techno movement on TRANSMISSIONS FROM HYPERBOREA. This mix is a cross-genre period piece set in the transitional year of 2010, when tech house, neotrance, minimal techno, and progressive psytrance collided and merged to form something vibrant and new. It was an era marked by the infiltration of underground club culture into the open air psytrance festival circuit; dance floors were awash in white noise, rapt with sizzling electric leads, and worked into a frenzy by big swinging beats. Basilisk's growing involvement in this emerging fusion was formalized by the establishment of Drumlore, a Canadian netlabel and event series organized alongside DJ Lexicon, in 2009. This, in turn, lay the groundwork for Techgnosis Records, one of the leading psychedelic techno labels of the 2020s. And so this mix also asks: what is a movement without history? Where do we find our roots?

Plenty of the tracks featured in this mix are now unavailable, deleted from whatever digital download platform originally carried them, sometimes nearly vanishing without a trace. Others are old dance floor stalwarts you will almost certainly recognize if you were raving back in 2010.

Transmissions From Hyperborea [Psychedelic Techno / Progressive House / Minimal Techno / Neotrance]

Basilisk returns with TRANSMISSIONS FROM ARCADIA, a 4-hour odyssey into deep and progressive forms of house, techno, and trance embedded within a hazy cocoon of broken beats, IDM, downtempo, and ambient, all from around the turn of the millennium. This exercise in genre-fluid nostalgia emphasizes rhythm over melody, avoiding monotony by rotating between diverse yet complimentary sounds intended for the dirty warehouse, summer festival, upscale club, or smoke-filled lounge.

Rave nostalgia is alive and well these days, but most people lavish their attention on the primordial aesthetics and waveforms of the early 1990s. Far less critical attention has been directed on the diversifying sounds of the early 2000s, when digital workstations transformed electronic music production and new movements proliferated throughout global dance culture. This mix aims to connect some of the dots, bridging gaps between contemporaneous scenes that might not have seen much crossover when this music was gleaming and new.

Transmissions From Arcadia [Classic Progressive House / Techno / Progressive Psytrance / Trance]

DJ Basilisk revisits the classic psytrance sound on Transmissions From Valhalla, a monumental 4+ hour journey featuring more than 60 tracks released between 1997 and 2005. This time around the focus is mainly on the many permutations of the “minimal wave” that swept through the scene in the early years of the new millennium. Expect to hear a wide variety of hypnotic atmospheres, quirky rhythms, and brutal beats as the pressure builds toward a raging full-on mind-bending climax. The return path explores the deeper and more sublime side of progressive psytrance before unraveling with shimmering breakbeats and dubbed-out electronica.

Transmissions From Valhalla [Classic Y2K-Era Minimal Psytrance / Progressive Psytrance / Techtrance]

DJ Basilisk returns to the ecstatic idealism of the early 1990s on TRANSMISSIONS FROM LYONESSE, the latest in an ongoing series of concept mixes documenting electronic music subcultures of the past. This time around the journey leads from scintillating ambient techno arpeggios and idyllic IDM to the raging heights of full-on Goa trance (and back again). Ultimately the aim is to capture some of the magic of the outdoor festival experience circa 1996, particularly in the UK and continental Europe. Many of these tracks are rough around the edges, and several have been lightly edited and remastered exclusively for this mix.

Transmissions From Lyonesse [Goa Trance / Classic Trance / IDM / Ambient Techno / Electronica]

TRANSMISSIONS FROM AVALON is an epic return to the halcyon sound of the early 1990s, meticulously curated and sublimely mixed by DJ Basilisk. This 4 hour journey features tracks produced up until 1996, building from moody ambient, scintillating IDM, and hypnotic techno into acidic and full-on Goa trance, culminating at 150 BPM. Descending from the heights, the mood becomes more tribalistic and transcendent, thickening the vibe with various permutations of progressive trance and euphoric house before unwinding with hazy breakbeats and soothing drones.

Anoebis - 20 Years Suntrip Morning Story

DJ Basilisk rewinds the tape to the Golden Age of Goa trance with Transmissions From Shambhala, a three-hour odyssey sculpted entirely from tracks produced between 1994 and 1996. These 37 selections chart a course through the work of sonic trailblazers---those analog alchemists who, armed with their rudimentary machines and an experimental zeal, tapped into uncharted dimensions of sound and transformation.

Expect mystic energy, spine-tingling melodies, swirling acid lines, and blissful atmospheres, all swirling together in hypnotic fashion. While deeply rooted in the Goa trance tradition, the journey occasionally ventures into neighboring realms of progressive and uplifting trance. Every layer is harmonically tuned and expertly blended, ensuring a smooth, immersive ride.

2hrs 45m of live DJ action. The sound of Goa Trance & Mick Chaos.

Enjoy & turn it up to 11. Mick.

This is quite an important day it's my first recorded Goa Trance mix since 1995 , yes it has been 21 years since i started producing this kind of music and succeeded with few projects then for finally give up at the end of 1998 for concentrate in producing more Industrial , Gothic & Chillout , as a need to come back to back to my roots after an over saturating and slowly dying  market, its not until the last 2 years that i hooked up again with Goa Trance promoters & die hard fans , you know who you are, also the highlights were the meeting with Neogoa Records label and artists and the ZNA Festival gathering with my old school fellow artists and dear friends ,so  there it is , this new wave of inspiration with this Nu Goa Generation giving shivers ,goose bumps & dejavu type of feelings ...
hope you enjoy :)
Love Kxxx
