Recorded live at legendary @mo_dem Festival 2023 - #Swamp Floor.
Set time was on 11th Aug from 02:00 - 04:00 AM. As a DJ I´ve always loved to make transition storytelling sets, so I started my set at 146 Bpm Forest & built it carefully down to Techno & DarkProg & finished the set on 140 bpm.
Big love & respect to MoDem crew specially @val_vashar for the opportunity, @lilianstark for recording the set, also massive thanks to all my favo artists featured on the set & of course much love to the crowd for dance.

"It's not just about picking the right track for the moment or delivering a flawless performance.
It's also not just about booking the most suiting acts and designing a stunning party concept.
No.. In this case, it's about a incomparably passioned person who is telling her own unique psychedelic story for almost ten years now...
Rooted in the Netherlands, Jorine shaped the intimate interrelatedness between her and the cruddy climes of dark psychedelic music in the sweet scene of Germany.
With a decent mixture of magic and madness, this tainted troublemaker is carefully challenging a wide variety of disciplines within the psychedelic cosmos: From delivering never-ending sets and organizing rumply raves to the accurate execution of stage and booking management.
Jorine sets space into a wide range of music:
from smooth, gnarly and bushy dark-progressive/techno tunes straightforward into the deepest Forest, this smooth selector always will find a humorous and innovative way to send you on the journey you didn't even know you always needed.
Feel warmly invited to let this versatile artist demonstrate her quirky quintessence of psychedelic art and culture!"

EOY DooooF gathering [07.12.2024] @ Somewhere over the Rainbow.

Set time : 02:30 - 04:00

Nyctophilia is a term that describes a deep affection or preference for the night or darkness. People who experience nyctophilia often find peace, comfort, or inspiration in the nighttime, associating it with a sense of calm or solace that they may not feel during the day. It is not necessarily a clinical condition but rather a poetic or personal inclination.

For some, the quiet and stillness of the night fosters creativity or introspection, while for others, it provides an escape from the overstimulation of daylight hours. The concept is often romanticized in literature and art, symbolizing mystery, freedom, or the allure of the unknown.

“Whosoever is delighted in solitude, is either a wild beast or a god.” - Aristotle

Nyctophilia - Hrik DJ Set [DoOOoF]

Scrow, a Brazilian artist, debuts his track "Break the Chains," aiming to create an immersive experience for listeners. The sound is filled with immersive atmospheres, with leads guiding the "journey" of the track, making it introspective and hypnotic. The track invites listeners to break their chains and embrace who they truly are, freeing themselves from any barriers that prevent them from being their selves.

Scrow - Brake The Chains

Hello Guys,

This is the Crazy Set played for my Crazy brother's Bday gathering!

Happy Bday to a brother from the Cosmos ! Grateful to have crossed paths with such amazing human being !

Cosmik Brothers.

Cosmik Brothers - Wubba Lubba Dark Prog (HRIK BDAY)

Nihilism is the belief that life lacks objective meaning, purpose, or intrinsic value. Now imagine love within that framework!

My Bday set played on 23.03.2025. Set time 03:00 - 04:45

Nihilistic love acknowledges that love has no cosmic significance or transcendent purpose. The universe remains indifferent to our emotional connections, and these bonds hold no objective value beyond what we choose to assign them. However, this very absence of predetermined meaning creates a space for freedom and authenticity in relationships.

It confronts temporality directly. Rather than seeking eternal bonds or transcendent connections that survive death, it acknowledges relationships as necessarily finite. This recognition of temporal limitation doesn't diminish love but potentially intensifies it through an awareness of its precious transience.

At its most profound, nihilistic love doesn't eliminate meaning but relocates it—from cosmic or divine sources to the human capacity for creation and commitment in the face of ultimate meaninglessness.

“You will never be happy if you continue to search for what happiness consists of. You will never live if you are looking for the meaning of life.”
— Albert Camus

"We are dying stars, collapsing into each other just to feel something before the end."
— Elliott Smith

Scrow is a psytrance project that explores the realms of Dark Prog, psytech, and Deep. It always aims for a cinematic and psychedelic sound aesthetic, leading the listener on an immersive and introspective journey. Its film influences are evident in the dense and surreal atmospheres, shifting between introspective and energetic moments. Each track is a journey, with immersive textures that explore both the dark and expansive sides of psychedelia, challenging expectations and guiding the listener into states of trance and reflection. The music is a sonic narrative that transports to alternative worlds, intensifying the emotional experience.

DJ'ng since 2018, Hrik’s connection to music runs much deeper beginning in his teenage years when he explored his vocal abilities by covering metal tracks. While rooted in the raw energy of metal, his path took a transformative turn when he discovered Psytrance, opening the door to a whole new dimension.

Over the years, Hrik has performed at various private events, crafting sets that lean towards Progressive Psytrance while also weaving through Psy-chill and Full-on styles. His DJ sets are much structured but dynamic as well and always driven by emotion and rhythm.

As the co-founder of Fuzzy Concept, a collective championing the underground Psytrance and Techno scene in Mauritius, Hrik has played a pivotal role in organizing events that featured international acts like Zyce, Egomorph, and Freedom Fighters alongside local talents.

Now based in Western Central Europe as of 2025, Hrik continues his musical odyssey bringing his unique blend of mixing and immersive storytelling to new audiences.

Psytrance isn’t just music; it’s energy, emotion & soul in motion. 🕉️
