Apophenia is a high-BPM psychedelic trance EP where classical piano influences collide with mind-bending sound design. Inspired by Debussy’s impressionism and Chopin’s emotional depth, each track transforms romantic harmonies into fast-paced, hypnotic chaos.

The title refers to apophenia — the human tendency to perceive patterns and meaning in randomness. This EP explores that phenomenon sonically: weaving fractured melodies, complex textures, and driving rhythms that lure the listener into finding form within the noise.

Kipod Crew is a group of freaks from Israel. After growing up together and opening their minds to Doctor Hoffman’s formula, they discovered the psychedelic magic of trance gatherings in the mid-’90s.
At the beginning of 2008, they came up with the idea of producing their own events under the name “Kipod Crew” (kipod means hedgehog in Hebrew). After producing two successful parties in the north of India (Parvati Valley), they decided to start their adventure in the Holy Land.

In the last decade, Kipod’s events have shifted towards Darkpsy, Forest, Hi-Tech, and Psycore music, moving away from traditional psytrance. This change reflects the realization that true psychedelia lies in these genres.
Always looking forward to shaking the Israeli forests and spreading the message of what we believe to be high-quality mind-expansion sounds and rhythms, we continue to support and foster local artists.
Problem children are always here!
