Release date: March, 2006
PsyBooty is the new crossover sound bubbling up from the digital underground. Intelligent, engaging, and undeniably funky, PsyBooty fuses the contagious dance floor rhythms of House music with the innovative sound design and aural sensibilities of Psychedelic Trance, and other forms of experimental electronic music.
PsyBooty is also the name of an independent record label dedicated to promoting its signature sound.
PsyBooty Records is based in San Francisco, CA, a major urban centre for House Music, Trance, and alternative culture in the United States. The label hosts a roster of talented DJs and Live Artists who perform regularly in the States and internationally. While label releases feature well-known international artists, A&R head, David Justin, puts great effort and emphasis on discovering and breaking new talent.
It is the goal of PsyBooty to develop its unique musical styling, and bring it recognition as the distinct genre of music it truly is.

If there ever were a testament to the growing Psychedelic Trance scene in America, PsyBooty Records would be it. Based in San Francisco, it is one of the hottest labels to grace the States with its influence. PsyBooty has brought together an eclectic mix of artists from all sorts of musical backgrounds in the United States and elsewhere abroad, such as Serbia, Israel, and Russia, who are simply doing amazing things with music. Bringing a new sound to what we all know as Psy Trance, PsyBooty pulls elements from and throws you back to a very vital point in electronic music history... the acid breaks, the 303, the House music - what?!?!? Then they top it all off with a huge psychedelic element to bring it up to date. From worldwide recognition of tracks such as "dAAth" produced by Annodalleb (a side project of PsyBooty's prophei and Cyrus Rex) currently touted by Hallucinogen, to the project Behind Blue Eyes, the artists of which currently log releases on Iboga and others under the Beat Bizaare project, PsyBooty hosts true musical veterans and innovators who ride the cutting edge of of 21st century Psy Trance. The stellar past achievements and huge future potential of PsyBooty and its artists are ones to be watched. Great things can surely be expected from this label, which has already proven itself to be top-notch in quality.
Equisol is the Trance project of Steven Fava. A US based artist working out of Southwest Florida, Steven holds a solid presence on the PsyBooty artist roster. He has two previous releases on PsyBooty Records, and has also seen his music released as a member of D-Space (Soular Records).
M-Field is among the newest additions to the PsyBooty roster. The collaboration of Jay Indigom (Alpha Channel / Indigom, PsyBooty) & label DJ Rob-ot (Rob Watson), these boys are poised to take the world by storm with their deep, funky progressive psychedelic style. M-Field is currently in the studio putting the finishing touch on their full-length CD to be released on PsyBooty Records in 2006.
Behind Blue Eyes / Vacuum Stalkers: Behind Blue Eyes is the project of Rene Nielsen (Beat Bizarre), and DJ Banel (Iboga Records). Their self-titled debut, released on Iboga Records, was easily one of the best progressive psychedelic albums of 2005. PsyBooty is proud to present an unreleased remix of BBE’s “Rumble In The Jungle” by Russia’s Vacuum Stalkers who have been making quite a name for themselves lately in the progressive circle, in addition to releasing down-tempo creations under the name Koan.
Etienne has been writing music for almost 20 years. In that time, he has experimented his way through Metal, Punk, Crossover, and Industrial, eventually creating his own unique take on Psychedelic Trance, which incorporates the various musical genres that have defined him as a composer. He has been performing live throughout the Northwest, Bay Area, and Southern California regions of the US for the past 3 years. Etienne’s track, “We Come In Peace” was recently released on Monomad Media’s compilation, “San Trancisco,” and he has written professionally for web movies and video game companies such as EA and Sierra/Vivendi Universal.
prophei has been writing, producing, engineering, and recording electronic music for over thirteen years. His work spans various vocal, experimental, and dance-floor styles throughout that period. His industrial dance project, annodalleb (with longtime collaborator cyrus rex) will release their single "dAATh" on N3 Records in early 2006. The single and includes a burning hot remix by Hallucinogen, currently being caned worldwide by Hallucinogen himself and any DJ with an ear remotely close to the floor!
ProSect is the project of Andrey Yakovlev hailing from Israel. While Andy's music is mainly categorized as Psy Trance, he seeks to break rules and be an innovator in an underground scene he sees as lacking originality. He has found recent success seeing releases as part of multiple projects (Sound Field, Sonify, ProSect) on a diversity of record labels including Baroque, Tribal Vision, Kagdila, Oxygen, and now PsyBooty.
Duca (aka ANAX) is Dusan Sekic, of Belgrade, Serbia. He released his first full-length album as ANAX on Kagidila Records in 2004. Since then he has concentrated on multiple projects including his progressive project, Duca. “Pozitiva” is a progressive monster, which is sure to be one of the standout tracks on this compilation. Its deep dreamy synth work and smooth pulsing rhythms will appeal to fans and DJs across many electronic music genres.
Sound Field is the collaboration of Andrey Yakovlev (ProSect, Sonify) and Liron Atia (The Poofs). This unique meeting of the minds spawns a unique take on morning trance. Lush atmospherics, melodic and harmonic work, live instruments, deep, grooving rhythms, and excellent production quality are all hallmarks of the Sound Field aesthetic. The duo has been released on Oxygen Records and will have more material released on Crotus Records in 2006.
We are looking for quality promoters and production crews worldwide to host ServeEm2wice CD launch events. We can also offer a PsyBooty Label party. If you are interested, feel free to contact robin@triskelemanagement.com to discuss what’s on offer.
