Ionkhe vs. Breathead - Strange Universe - SAMPLE

▶ Ionkhe [EN]

Ionkhe is a psytrance project created by Ivan Figueroa, DJ / Producer born in León, Guanajuato, Mexico.
The name of Ionkhe is a mixture of 2 words: ¨Ion¨ from ¨Illusio¨from Latin, it means illusion. ¨Khe¨ is the second half of the psyche word, of Greek origin, which means ¨ human soul. So, Ionkhe can be defined as a human illusion.
Ionkhe invites you to immerse yourself in a mystical trance, touching the sensitive fibers that stimulate the capacities and functions in charge of controlling the thought, emotion, and personality of every individual.
 
Starting as a DJ in 2015, his introduction to the Mexican scene began by organizing events at Xikury Pulquería, a pioneering forum in his style in Mexico, working with many national and international artists. Later he began to work on its production, releasing his first releases on Phoenix Records (USA / UK) and later on Nexus Media (SA).

He is currently part of the ¨Caracha experience¨ organization, a project that began in mid-2021 and was carried out at the Hotel / Hacienda Caracha located in Caracha, Michoacán. Which in its first edition exceeded expectations and promises to be a great annual festival.

Twistedreload is a unique sound coming straight out of London.
Twistedreload has being making music for a number of years, Starting off on Playstation, Fruity loops, Reason and now on Logic.

Twistedreload has been influenced by a lot of artist in Reggae, Soul, House, Rave, Garage, Trance and Dub over the years. In my early years I was going up and down the M1 with Jah Tubbys (Dub Sound system). I think this is shown in my music by the basslines that I write and the vocal delays all of which I loved and still do.

Twistedreload as an original sound that is like no other and I aways start with the drum patterns which all made by me in NI's battery. The synth's I use are Serum, Spire and The Sylenth and mixture of some old synths from Native instruments. I use a number of plug-ins which are waves.

I hope you enjoy my music on this page many thanks

Loving Psytrance 👽👽

Ishikawa is Angad Kapoor from Mumbai, India and now based in San Francisco, USA. At age 14, he first came into contact with psytrance listening to Infected Mushroom’s Psycho and that was the beginning of a lifelong obsession. Over the years his interest grew in music for the twilight hours featuring music from the likes of Scorb, Digital Talk, and Rubix Qube alongside his first love that was epic morning and full on music paced. In 2010 he decided to join Phonix Records with the intent of promoting upcoming artists and above all – pushing nothing but good music. Since then he has gone to play at a number of festivals - Equinox (USA), Caracha Experience (Mexico), The Great Funspiracy (Canada) to name a few. In 2011, he joined the legendary Mechanik Records family till it finally closed down. Today he has diversified his sound palette into groovy forest music from the likes Blacklite Records, Looney Moon Records and Bom Shanka Music running from 148-152 bpm. His mixes have been regularly featured on a number of radio streams now, Radio Schizoid (India) where he helped organize show & interviews, Pump Up The Volume (France), Boomadelic (Israel), The Cheeky Grin (Australia) and Babaganousha (Germany).  Fast forward to 2019 Ishikawa proudly manages Phonix Records as well as represents Kaos Krew Records as a DJ. In 2020, Ishikawa also created a new DJ alias -Saturate- focused on melodic house music for slower grooves. Today, with 11 compilations to his name, over 50 releases overseen on home label Phonix Records - Ishikawa is at his happiest listening, sharing and spreading psytrance music.

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.

The live Psy Trance act of Ruan Capes. 
A dreamy, yet powerful, psychedelic style. Edging the borders of both night and daytime trance.
