Paolo Calvaruso (A.K.A. Groove Empathy) discovers his passion for DJing in 2014, approaching and falling in love with the psy movement.
In fact, the first mixing experiences involved all kind of Psy genres, finally arriving to the beloved Zenonesque/Dark Prog music along side all kind of Downtempo and Chill-Out music.

After two years he feels the need to expand his musical selection to all his beloved musical genres, moving away from the prevalence of electronic music and starting to melt it with old and contemporary sounds, to create combinations ever more stimulating and unexpected for listeners' ears.
Now the best way to express himself and his musical empathy is, whithout any doubt, playing Chill-Out/Alternative DJsets.

In 2016 joins the Fractal Forest Family as DJ and Alternative Stage Manager for family's Party!
In 2019 he joins forces and start co-operating and organizing parties with Out of Control PsyFamily!
By now Groove Empathy brought his selection in parties and festivals like 7Chakras Festival, Shankra Festival, Atlas Gathering, etc. in Italy and all over Europe (Swiss, Spain, Denmark, ...).

His DJsets are never prepared, the musical selection is improvised on the spot in order to fit the situation and follow the dancefloor vibes at the best of his capability!

Paolo Calvaruso (A.K.A. Groove Empathy) scopre la passione per il DJing nel 2014, avvicinandosi e innamorandosi del movimento Psy.
Le prime esperienze di missaggio infatti toccavano solamente sonorità elettroniche Psy di tutti i generi, approdando in ultimo al genere Zenonesque/Dark Prog prediletto assieme anche a tutte le sonorità Downtempo e Chill-Out.

Dopo due anni sente però il bisogno di espandere la sua selezione a tutti i generi musicali da sempre amati, scostandosi dalla prevalenza di musica elettronica per fonderla a sonorità vecchie e/o contemporanee, al fine di creare accostamenti sonori sempre più stimolanti e inaspettati per le orecchie degli ascoltatori.
Ormai è senza dubbio tramite i DJset Chill-Out/Alternative che riesce veramente a esprimere se stesso e l'affinità musicale.

Dal 2016 entra a far parte della Fractal Forest Family come DJ e Alternative Stage Manager per gli stessi eventi della Family.
Nel 2019 unisce le forze e inizia a organizzare feste con Out of Control PsyFamily.
Ad ora, Groove Empathy ha portato la sua selezione in feste e festival come il 7Chakras Festival, Shankra Festival, Atlas Gathering, in Italia e altri paesi Europei (Svizzera, Spagna, Danimarca, ...).

I DJset non sono mai preparati prima, la selezione viene improvvisata sul momento in modo da potersi adattare alla situazione e seguire il mood della dancefloor al meglio delle sue capacità!

Abraxas is a new collaboration between two veteran Psytrance music producers: Billy Cosmosis & Eric Quantica. 

Abraxas' fuses the two approaches of Cosmosis & Quantica to create a newer, deeper psychedelic landscape, keeping it trippy but with a phatter, funkier grooves and exploring the chunkier sonic territory possible in the slightly slower tempo ranges.

Full Lotus is a Psychedelic DJ based in London and signed to Parvati Records. At the age of 12 he discovered the word 'psychedelic' whilst reading a comic and after looking up the meaning, decided that it could be fun. 

He started DJing on vinyl whilst at university playing a mixture of Alternative and Psychedelic rock and formed a student society with a focus on mainly 60's psychedelia. During this time he was exposed to underground electronic dance music from the early 90's UK scene and heard some people talking about 'Goa' parties and 'Goa' music and thought this also sounded like it could be fun.

Following a trip to Goa in late 1995, he became hooked on the music he heard at the beach parties and upon returning in early 1996, he began attending numerous Goa style parties in London. The following year he started organizing trance/techno events with a friend and started to DJ in London. In 1998 he became a resident DJ for the Kundalini party organization. This was the start of the Full Lotus project. After hearing the first Parvati Records compilation, First Step, he embraced this particular sound and became one of the first DJ’s in the UK to play it at parties.

With over thirty years of experience behind the decks, he is a regular fixture on the London psychedelic trance scene and currently plays what is known these days as dark/forest psychedelic trance or as he used to call it, twisted night time funk. His DJ sets are performed with the intention of making both your body and mind dance.

"Psychedelia is in the mind of the beholder."
