INGRAINED INSTINCTS is a psytrance project consisting of Tilemachos Vlachos, and Dafy Deliangelos from Greece. After releasing their first collaboration with SuperModule 'HEADS FIRST' on Lucas's compilation AVANT GARDEN II last year, TIP Records is proud to present their new EP 'GROOVE PRINCIPLES'. Known for their kicking leads, funky basslines and floor destroying live sets, these guys, on loan from their home label SANGOMA, have put together a tasty two track EP featuring 'OLD DOCTRINE'... and also their remix of MANDELBROT's classic 'NEW REFORMED CHURCH OF BLAST'.

Ingrained Instincts - Old Doctrine

Ingrained Instincts is a unique project consisting of Tilemachos Vlachos, and Dafy Deliangelos from Greece. Both have shared the same passion for Psychedelic music since their very early days. They met in 2001, formed a project together, and started to develop a different sound, but one totally sympathetic to the scene, and yet wholly psychedelic, and funky! 

After many years of experimentation, the Ingrained Instincts project was born in 2014. Their sound could be described as an amalgamation of many variations which don’t fit in one box – definitely different and organic sounding. For their production they use analogue as well as digital hardware, and are building their own modular system. Tilemachos also has a downtempo project called “Escape Velocity”, with releases on Spiral Trax, Sonic Loom and Eardream Music amongst other labels. Ingrained Instincts are signed with Sangoma Records and so far released on TIP Records, Nano Records, Future Music Records, Blacklite Records and more. Ingrained Instincts have been busy touring around the globe and have performed live at some of the biggest festivals of the Psytrance scene such as Boom, Ozora, Universo Paralello, Sonica, Antaris, FreeEarth, Indian Spirit, Kosmos and many others… 

This is one project you have to keep an ear out for, because before you know it you’ll be dancing away. Uncontrollably! It’s infectious.
