Twisted Frequency Festival 2022/23 
Upper Takaka, Golden Bay, New Zealand.
~~
142 - 150bpm
Moko Moko stage (aka. main stage)
A short, powerful, 1-hour journey transitioning between Progressive, Full on and Forest. 
~~
The flow went like this: 
> Pspiralife (Zenon)
> Azrin (Zenon)
> Volkiene (independant)
> Ektomorph (Vantara Vichitra Records)
> Algormorph (Defiant Force Records)
> AlgoRithium (Enygma, Sonic Loom)
~~
Considering the time of the evening and the flow, I thought it was fitting to bring the vibe up a bit and pump some high-energy tracks into the session. I also felt it was my duty to showcase a tasteful amount of full-on within my set to tribute the array of psytrance within the session.

Volkiene @ Twisted Frequency 2022/23 - Main Floor - New Zealand

Esoteric Festival 2023
Donald, Victoria, Australia.
~~
140 - 145bpm
Suntemple stage
A dynamic journey through various styles of progressive psytrance with hints of techno and deeper grooves. Live drums throughout.
~~
I am very grateful to once again have played the Suntemple. This dancefloor is always one of the more difficult and unpredictable floors I play. I have played good and well below-average sets on this stage (it's always a humbling experience). This time around I am proud to say I am stoked with my set. I took risks, exercised patience and commit to my plan. I feel this tracklisting is a good representation of an out-of-the-ordinary set while tributing the context of Esoteric's Suntemple stage.

Volkiene - pronounced "Vol-keen"
An ambitious artist who skillfully merges innovative live drumming with technical DJ sets.

The Volkiene sound can be described as a dynamic fusion of edgy progressive and powerful psytrance, infused with elements reminiscent of pacey techno, forest, and hypnotic realms.

Perpetual touring and steadfast displays of craftsmanship have solidified Volkiene's nationwide credibility as one of the most promising drawcards in Australia's psytrance community. After making his international touring debut in 2023, he is determined and dedicated to expanding his global presence, honing his sound, and pursuing innovative ways to remain cutting-edge.
