Title: V/A - Cybernetic Response compiled by Data Decay
World Wide Release: 15th October, 2021  

Promo:
The year is 2021. We are still dealing with the effects of the global lockdown. It is time for a new escape – this time Phonix Records puts beat scientist Data Decay in charge. Using cutting edge technology, magic and every other option available – he has assembled the ‘Cybernetic Response’ – a transmission describing his version of things to come. 

Data Decay tunes into the psychedelic frequencies with a little ‘Mind Woggle’. Synthesized by Glitch, ‘Mind Woggle’ tickles and flexes all the right parts of the brain that make you dance! Catching the right wavelength – we commence ‘Frequency Surfing’. Tweaked and fine-tuned, this robo-trip of psychedelic proportions was originally assembled by Tickets and Earworm – and is now remixed by Tickets to achieve the maximum output resonance. As power levels stabilize, mage Skryre dwells deep with his epic – ‘Tantrum of the Opera’. A ballad of technology gone wrong, humanity lost, a monster unleashed! Dancefloors – beware! More chaos leads into disarray and disorientation. Fear not, ReFractor and his claims of ‘Lights in the Sky’ – helps re-orient with perfect precision. 

With a newfound sense of clarity – another legend comes to push things… sideways. Shift thrills with ‘Mesmerizer’. A dark and troubling dystopian tale – an unexpected side effect of the Cybernetic Response! The reality matrix is fractured, and Killer with the help of their new and improved 2021 remix of Digital Talk – ‘Acrobeat’ – recalibrate audio sensors! Synthetic acid leads over powerful beats – the ideal means to break through the firewall of the mind! The perfect setting to turbocharge your dance shoes – Alienn hacks the mind and pushes listeners closer to euphoria embracing the dancefloor zombie inside. 

Entering the final phase, wizard Ionkhe and amigo Droptor present the story of Tsukuyomi – the moon god! Helping complete the story with a little bit of groovy, glitched, and dimension shifting magic! If that isn’t enough – M.A.D, helps secure every ounce of leftover technology to take care of any loose ends with his lethal remix of the classic ‘Global Thermonuclear War’ by Frozen Ghost, Psyqlopz feat. Jester. Dare if you will, pass this point, for beyond this lie ‘Nightmares’! Newcomer China Rose presents this parting chapter – a haunting tale! This is not the happy end you imagined, but it is the EPIC end you get – a 149 BPM roller coaster of a ride bursting with energy! 

With this – Data Decay concludes the Cybernetic Response. Take the time to re-orient yourselves, watch that first step - its a doozy! So waste no time and take us to your speakers! It’s time for the Cybernetic Response!

In 2010, Paulo Etnarama was inspired to support fresh up and coming psytrance producers acts in twilight psytrance, and thus Phonix Records was born in London. Later that year he found his partner in crime - Ishikawa, a fellow traveler in the cosmos who shared the same vision. Together they worked tirelessly with the aim of providing sonic scientists and wizards the means to be heard by audiences galaxy wide.

Fast-forward 3 years to 2013, Etnarama goes on sabbatical and Ishikawa takes the reigns to manage the label. Since then - Phonix Records has now branched from its home in the UK with representation across USA, Portugal, and South Africa. Over 15 years and over 50 releases, they have released fresh releases featuring all the flavors of the twilight spectrum. Today they proudly support an ever-growing roster of new and established producers from across the globe including France, South Africa, Mexico, Portugal and Canada.

Focusing completely on the music for the twilight hours, Phonix Records has constantly been pushing to release nothing but the very best in super powered, hyper charged, 100% unadulterated twilight psytrance! They strive to leave their mark on the psytrance scene as a serious label known to support the music they love.
