Shaped by introspection, I explore the darker shades of psychedelic sound.

Metasonic is the psychedelic DJ project of Sidney van Dyk. Originally from Cape Town, South Africa now living in Bangkok, Thailand.

Since first being exposed to psychedelic trance music and culture in 2009 he fell head over heals in love with both.

He believes that the psychedelic trance journey at it's roots is one of the most liberating and freeing experiences one can have. Be it progressive day-time to Full-on night time to Darkpsy etc, etc, etc and all the myriad of genres in between. The journey it takes you within your own consciousness and who you are after experiencing this journey of sound and self is what made him fall in love. 

Hence the name, Metasonic(meta - after / sonic - sound) is a tribute to that place in all of us that we reach after being taken on a psychedelic sound journey.

His vision for this project is to bring about journey sets to take the listener to that special place inside themselves.

Einfach leben, 
immer in der Realität!
In deren genauen Sinn!

Erlebe, statt zu verleben!

Zusammen weiter kommen, um anzukommen 🐰👾😻

Und werdet alle mal endlich Flexitarier oder sogar pescetarier!

Weil 75% zu 25% Fläche und Nutzung ist
  10-14% zu 90% ..............

Vegan is good!
But not the solution or even salvation!
