Blunda is the psychedelic music project of Efe, a psychedelic trance connoisseur from Mexico who has been collecting psychedelic music since the first goa trance waves in the late 90's. Those who know him know he's been involved in one way or another with psychedelic trance and raves in north Mexico since the early days of the scene in the late 90's before moving to Sweden. Throughout the years he's been collecting music both on vinyl and digital and playing at small gatherings, at friends or in the forest. During this time he also studied sound engineering at SAE and developed his ear by listening to psychedelic trance in all its forms, favorites being goa, forest, dark prog and psytechno.

Blunda is born out of the tingling sensation of spreading soundwaves on the dancefloor and taking dancers on a journey into themselves and into the music. Blunda means to close your eyes in swedish, and it's something he often does while dancing and losing himself into the music. He sees his role as a facilitator of the internal journey of everyone on the dancefloor, as for him the dancing ritual is sacred and a form of active meditation.

 In an age of instant gratification and ego-driven drops, his sets create an environment where energy can organically unfold, truly reading the room and breathing life into it with a slow burning story where the journey into the night is as crucial as its peak.
He has a weak spot for mixing the best old and new school psychedelic trance while venturing across genres within the spectrum.

Founded in London in 2007, Phantasy has steadily transformed into one of the UK’s most diverse and artistically ambitious small labels. Neither rooted in electronic or alternative music, Phantasy small but expanding stable of artists work closely with founder and creative director Erol Alkan, to achieve the best possible sound and vision for a diverse audience.

In Flagranti (Sasa Crnobrnja & Alex Gloor)

The duo has always made a great case demonstrating how “inspiration” from the creative works of others can truly be made into something new and totally distinct from the source material.  But whether you know the source material bears major influence on what their interpretation is going to even sound like to you.  In other words, you could be hearing the same song as another listener is, but if you’re familiar with the source material, you’re going to also be hearing that, while someone who isn’t familiar with it won’t.  Most of their listeners have no idea this is even going on, or could even be allowed.
I figure I follow In Flagranti quite closely, but I only make a connection here, or a connection there.  Sometimes this happens immediately, other times it’s taken years to notice.  Most connections I will never even be aware of, and I don’t listen for them, they just stand out to me or they don’t.  Sometimes I only discover the source material long after I’ve been familar with In Flagranti’s take on it, which you’d think would detract from the latter, but for me, it only adds to it.  In Flagranti’s musical interpretations show a certain ethic and a philosophy that parallels their approach to visual content.  It’s so “meta” that I’m at a loss to describe it, except to say what I often do:  Warhol would be In Flagranti’s biggest fan if he was around to witness them. – truckerdisco.wordpress.com

Nothing is original. Steal from anywhere that resonates with inspiration or fuels your imagination. Devour old films, new films, music, books, paintings, photographs, poems, dreams, random conversations, architecture, bridges, street signs, trees, clouds, bodies of water, light and shadows. Select only things to steal from that speak directly to your soul. If you do this, your work (and theft) will be authentic. Authenticity is invaluable; originality is nonexistent. And don’t bother concealing your thievery—celebrate it if you feel like it. In any case, always remember what Jean-Luc Godard said: “It’s not where you take things from—it’s where you take them to.”
