WTF Is Psytrance

Paraform is Martin Roast, once well known around the melbourne psytrance scene for his live sets. Also founder of melbourne record label “Silent Partner”
Had been exposed to a lots of different music from a very early age, his life was nothing short of a full time musical journey. growning up on a mix of psychedelic rock and classical, followed by hiphop, rnb and house music as a teenager. He started making music when he was 16 using an old amiga computer, records, a tascam multi track recorder and a sampler he had to make from scratch. he spent 2 years refining his ability to make hiphop beats using this system. at the age of 18 he formed a duo called “Subliminal Terrorists” which was a mend between punk, rock, and electronic. As he continued to hone his skill he learnt how to make many sytles of electronic music. After much experimentation, a few tracks being on the community radio and a few small gigs, in 2001 Martin found psytrance to be what he wanted to make. Playing his first ever psytrance Dj sets in 2002 as “brain animal”, in 2003 he played at his first outdoor party, which was rainbow serpant festival, on the bigredbus stage. In 2006 formed another duo called “Dream Katcher” befor going solo as “Paraform” in 2008. Having played along side the likes of, Broken Toy, Head Room, Space Tribe, Zen Mechanics, Highko, Cosmo, to name a few. In 2008 he started Silent Partner Crew, Which has run and helped run many indoor and outdoor events.
