I started work on a Rikki Rokkit comp for TIP earlier this year and realised recently that by chance it is the 100th album release across all of my labels!    A perfect way to celebrate such an achievement and the title had to be changed to simply 100! 
The 6 labels I have worked on in the last 20 years are Tip Records, Tip World, Tip New World and also 10 Kilo (Breakbeat, Electro, Tech House), Surround Sounds (House, Tribal, Tech House) and Lucky 7´s (Electro, Rock, Indie Dance).

Over all this time, from early Goa Trance days and the genres of my sister labels, a lot of music and artists have passed under the bridge.  Maybe as many as 400 different acts and many styles.  I always tend to steer to towards the very deep, fat, rich, spacious, groovy sounds but still Psychedelic.  Deep Psy Tech Trance.  We feel there are moments for all styles and over 20 years we have shown that by releasing what we love from almost every style that has come along within the Psy and Goa genres but also many others. 

This album I hope sounds fresh, unique, without boundaries.  A more analogue feel perhaps.  A certain flavour of the old school mixes with cutting edge new ideas from some of the most exciting brand new acts mix.  Original pioneers of the genre like legends Man With No Name and Graham Wood of The Infinity Project mix with new acts like Black Noise, ON3 and Empirikal.  Add in some super talented guys with top level production history like Bus (Gus Till), Born Sleepy (Illumination) and Duotekk (Soul Seekers & Logic Bomb) and a collaboration between one of the most exciting new acts in the last year, Martian Arts with Rikki Rokkit himself,  and its one exciting, high quality album.  It´s  all about the music and not about latest fashions. Uncompromising.  Here there are varied BPM´s, there is no rush for big effects, just well structured psychedelic dance music by some people who know how to do it very well.  

For me the groove is in the space.  I hope I have found it here.  I only wish I had this collection on vinyl like back in the day...

I hope you enjoy.

MANIFESTO!!!
''Baseada na cultura grunge, punk; cyberpunk; steampunk (Vapor); Dieselpunk; Retrofuturismo, alguns elementos de Ucronia ("não-tempo") e sociedades alternativas totalmente imersivas, formamos uma nova ideia.
Nosso objetivo é a criação e destruição de padrões musicais extraindo a criatividade do mundo das ideias, o movimento musical freak anti-padrão nada mais é que a fusão da criação e destruição, formando algo sempre novo e único, que logo também será destruído para gerar algo novo, um paradigma.
Mostramos a todos que o futuro esta próximo, não devemos temê-lo, novos padrões serão sempre formados e destruídos novamente, seguimos no anti padrão, pronto para o novo, para destrui-lo e criá-lo ''Nova-Mente'' ''

MANIFEST!!!
'' Based on grunge, punk culture; cyberpunk; steampunk (Steam); Dieselpunk; Retrofuturism, some elements of Ukraine ("non-time") and alternative societies totally immersive, we form a new idea.
Our goal is the creation and destruction of musical patterns extracting creativity from the world of ideas, the anti-standard freak musical movement is nothing more than the fusion of creation and destruction, forming something always new and unique, which will soon also be destroyed to generate something new, a paradigm.
We show everyone that the future is near, we should not fear it, new patterns will always be formed, and destroyed again, we follow the anti pattern, ready for the new, to destroy it and create it '' New Mind '' ''

Anti - standard
Anti - Human
Totally utopian
From Apocalypse to Creation.

Black Noise is a project that dives into Psychedelic Trance and explores the mysteries of the universe by transforming colors, feelings, memories, scents and sounds into rhythmic bursts of energy...

In 1994, Raja Ram formed TIP Records, one of the original Goa-Trance / Psy-Trance labels based in the UK.  He had already been releasing music with his band The Infinity Project (T.I.P.) since the late 80's and after putting on, now legendary, TIP parties around this time, the idea to start a record label was conceived.

30 years on, TIP has gone from strength to strength with 100's of cutting-edge electronic music releases to date including highly respected classic dance music compilations right through to experimental downtempo and ambient music to a world wide (perhaps even inter-galactic)loyal following.

As ambassadors of the label, Raja Ram and DJ Lucas O'Brien (SuperModule) presented their label showcase touring the globe for over 20 years bringing the TIP sound to a wider audience.
The back catalogue reads like a who's who of the Psychedelic Trance scene and TIP helped many top artists to launch their careers.

Today, with a roster of sought after, quality and dynamic artists, TIP continues to bring music and joy to dance floors around the world!

Costas a.k.a. Xtatic Shiva was born and raised in Athens and from an early age he realized that music would be the ruler of his life! His music journey started with bands like Dire Straits, The Doors, Led Zeppelin and many more Hard Rock legends before getting into Heavy Metal music. At the age of 14 he was introduced into Goa and Psychedelic Trance scene and from that point on the beat hasn't stopped! After many years of attending events and private parties he was introduced to Fruity Loops and a new chapter in his life was just opened. After one year of learning about music-making he was introduced to Reason and Cubase, two of the most versatile DAWs which meant to be his partners up to date!
 
In 2005 he decides to start a project that would focus on simple and quality Goa and Psychedelic productions. Simplicity has been pushed aside from time to time but quality standards were always being raised with each track he delivered. Meanwhile, he starts joining music production sites and quickly establishes himself a respectable name amongst unsigned Goa and Psytrance artists. In 2010 he releases two tracks with R.S. Records and starts working on his full album. In 2011 he starts spinning tunes for Midi Radio, a famous greek internet-radio station and shortly after joins it's team with a weekly two-hour Psychedelic music show. In 2012 his debut album "Traces" is released by R.S. Records and starts working on his next album feeling hungrier for music than ever before!

Xtatic Shiva's style is unique, powerful and trippy, always evolving and most of the times out of the box! But the idea always remains the same! Simplicity and quality!


Peace and Love to all of you!

Soundcloud is a passionate hobby and all I want is to spread good music with you beautiful people.

Please enjoy my countless hours of collected music and keep your head in the clouds! Also feel free to check out my art, mostly inspired by all this psychedelic madness.
