Breakfast In The Desert (feat. Ingrid Oram)

HALLUCINOGEN is Simon Posford’s solo project, he is also in the popular bands SHPONGLE and YOUNGER BROTHER.  His Track SHAMANIX was initially released on TIP Record’s compilation YELLOW, the first edition of the Shiva series, back in Dec 1994.  It would set dancefloors alight with it’s explosive tribal, acid groove and became an instant hit and a seminal track in the Goatrance genre. 

In October 1995, Shamanix featured on Hallucinogen’s groundbreaking first album called TWISTED on YOUTH’s record label DRAGONFLY where Simon had been working as the in-house engineer.

Fast forward to 2022 >>> DOMESTIC and SPACECAT have remixed this classic and brought it a new shine with their modern production, but whilst carefully keeping the vibe and style of the original.  This has produced a monster of a remix that has been reigniting dancefloors much in the same way it did 28 years ago!  We at TIP are immensely proud to have released the original and now this fantastic remix.

FAGIN'S REJECT @  The Hive | MoDem Festival 2024

Sacred dance is the use of dance in religious ceremonies and rituals, present in most religions throughout history and prehistory. Its connection with the human body and fertility has caused it to be forbidden by some religions; for example, some branches of Christianity and Islam have prohibited dancing. Dance has formed a major element of worship in Hindu temples, with strictly formalized styles such as Bharatanatyam, which require skilled dancers and temple musicians. In the 20th century, sacred dance has been revived by choreographers such as Bernhard Wosien as a means of developing community spirit.

Indigenous ceremonial dance rituals around the world appear to preserve forms that were widespread in ancient times. For example, processionals and circle dances seen in indigenous dance today were used in ancient Egypt and among the Hebrews.[9] In ancient Egypt, dancers impersonated a deity such as the goddess Hathor, taking on the deity's attributes and interpreting the divine world for those watching.

In ancient Israel, the Hebrew Bible mentions dancing during religious worship.  The prophet Miriam led dancing following the crossing of the Red Sea during the Exodus. During the return of the Ark of the Covenant to Jerusalem, King David danced "before the Lord with all his might". Dancing is mentioned as something familiar, implying it was a common practice. Sacred dance is described in the Bible by verbs meaning dancing, rotating, jumping, skipping, and whirling. The dance was accompanied by hand-drums (tambourines), cymbals, flutes, pipes, lyres, harps, and lutes.

The Hittites are shown in a sacred processional dance in a c. 1200 BCrock inscription at the sanctuary of Yazılıkaya, near their city of Hattusa, in Cappadocia. A group of men wearing conical hats and tip-tilted shoes, and a group of women, dance in a running step towards a group of named gods and goddesses.

In ancient Greece, sacred dance was widespread; indeed, it formed a part of almost all worship, and the gods Apollo, Ares, Dionysus and Pan are all described as dancers, while other deities such as Artemis were described as dancing with their companions.

The Hawaiian Hula dances to Pele, the volcano goddess, survive, whereas European maypole dances have lost their meaning as tree-worship and survive only as folk tradition.

Happy Birthday to my Cosmik sensei 🙏🏾 this set is dedicated to you we lift ourself by lifting each other.

We’re back after a little pause with our UTR Mix Series, and returning with something truly special, a wicked audio journey from the ever-evolving sound alchemist, Rhabia. ✨
In this 70-minute sonic tale, Rhabia invites you into the depths of her eclectic world, where playful grooves merge with experimental twists, and shadowy tones dance with bursts of wild energy. This isn’t just a mix, it’s a living, breathing creature of sound, shaped by intuition and the desire to express it all without limits.
From lush instrumental landscapes to gritty emotional pulses, Rhabia curates a fluid narrative that breaks the mould of our usual bushy stomp sessions. Instead, she opens the gates to a space where diversity reigns and everything coexists, beautifully and unapologetically.

01. Reflection - Eye See Magic
02. Inverted World & Kadum - Human Life

Get the tunes via our Bandcamp - universaltriberecords.bandcamp.com

About the artist:
Rhabia began her journey into psytrance and progressive in 2013, quickly falling in love with their creative potential. By 2015, whilst organizing events with some friends, she was found behind the decks, evolving her sound through years of exploration. 
As a singer-songwriter raised on diverse genres and influenced by her rock musician father, she brings a unique fusion of psy, tech, and occasionally her own vocals into her sets. Her style is experimental and emotional - unpredictable yet deeply intentional, always aiming to trigger the full range of human emotion, where darkness and light melt together. 

Since 2019, she’s represented Universal Tribe Records, performing across stages with sounds rooted in Psytech, Darkprog, and Zenonesque vibes.
Now stepping into production, Rhabia is releasing original work and collaborations, expressing her ever-evolving sound without boundaries.

Inspired by Eastern dialects and medieval rhythms, “Maneliza” takes you on a journey of introspection and liberation.

The vocals portray a character trapped in their anguish, struggling to break free. Each section symbolizes a step toward the light and rebirth.

Vermont & Heavy Drop - Maneliza

Step into a sonic ritual of textures, sacred bass and transformation, where each frequency is a thread weaving an intricate tale of depth and elevation. Grateful for everyone present! And a HUGE THANKS to Rise&Align for the opportunity to set the tone for this wild party! (P.S: Best experienced with eyes closed and heart open) (P.S: Thanks Tij for the cover photo)

The Brahmin - Opening Immersion w/ Sumiruna 31.05.2025

Still trying to process this moment...
Sharing the stage at Immersion with the very artist who sparked my journey into sound was nothing short of surreal. From raving to his music under open skies to now weaving my own story in the same sonic space, this is a full-circle moment I’ll never forget.

This set is my offering to that moment.
Dark, groovy, and unapologetically deep, this is a tribute to the music that changed my life and the people who keep the flame alive.

Let the immersion begin.

Jewish Man - Pieces of us

Updated 2023 Mix !

It took me a longer time to get it complete but yeah, Vesuvius VA compilation is finally ready to be released :) I've been selecting tunes for the whole past summer 2016 till now, to reach this blasting result: "explosive psytrance" expressing the real power of nature as well as the power of a Vulcan, so conceptually close to the power of Shiva God, cyclically destructing and recreating life. Vesuvius is the name of the Vulcan in Napoli, my native land. It is the first thing I look at every morning out of my window when I wake up and it became the source of my inspiration for collecting the music I currently like and play in my djset around the world. As well as all people living here at the bottom of Vesuvius is aware everything may instantly disappear in case of eruption and so developed special chromosomes to face difficulties of everyday life, I felt a very deep connection with our local nature according to the challenges I had to overcome in my professional growth in a country where anything is easy and where human and cultural values are often just used as marketing tools rather than being spread and shared as inner living practices. I strongly thank all artists involved in this project who confirmed once again the trust on my attitudes and appreciating my musical vision as Dj and more as psychedelic music chronic maniac. All the physical copies will be out with biodegradable digi-sleeves according to Sonica Festival’ sustainable activities in order to reduce the production and the consume of the plastic. Enjoy Vesuvius guys! 100% pure blasting psytrance!
