Psyfonic has dedicated more than half of his life to his roles as a DJ and producer. Psy-Trance transcends mere passion; it's his way of life. This profound connection becomes evident when he graces the stage, bringing forth the highest caliber of music for the euphoric crowd. 

In 2013, he embarked on a significant journey by co-founding his own label, Sun Department Records, alongside Chrizzlix. Their aim was to create a platform for gifted artists, providing them with the opportunity to realize their shared dream of releasing top-tier Psy-Trance music. Psyfonic's musical odyssey has graced esteemed trance gatherings such as Antaris Project, Fusion Festival, Psychedelic Circus, Desert Dance Festival, Indian Spirit, Bachblyten Festival, Zurück zu den Wurzeln, Shining Festival, and many others. Through his commanding sets, Psyfonic embraces the ethos of each dance event, weaving a narrative that transports the audience into a realm brimming with psychedelic and pulsating sonic landscapes. There's nothing more enchanting than losing oneself in trance on the dancefloor.

Live act: Compos Mentis 

Passionate psychedelic trance Producer and DJ hailing out of Cape Town, South Africa. A lover for all things weird, freaky and psychedelic. 
My two projects focus on my two different tastes for psychedelic music. Profound focuses on the groovier side of the spectrum with a full-on twist. The DJ project was created in 2016 where I started performing across the psy-circuit in Cape Town. In 2018 I received my first big festival booking at the well renown Alien Safari, shortly after I started receiving bookings for multiple different festivals across different cities in South Africa. In 2020 the project was booked for the largest Psychedelic festival in Africa - Origin Festival by Nano Records. The Profound project ranges anywhere from 144-148 and is versatile to cover various time slots at a festival.

Lysandros is my Live Project where I focus on a dark, organic sound that aspires to take the listener out of their mental and provides space for them to get lost in the music. This project draws major inspiration from the record label Sangoma Records as they capture that organic, tribal sound throughout their label. I first fell deep into psychedelic music when I discovered the label and I often found myself on a dancefloor just craving the intense atmosphere the Sangoma sound creates. This project will range anywhere from 150-156 and will focus on a dark atmospheric approach with eerie atmospheres waving through the forest coupled by interesting conversation between the leads.
