Hello dear Suntrippers

You may have been unable to order Antares - Exodus on thurdsay.
Our crypto certiicate with Paypal had expired just on the release date, causing some orders to fall into a dead-end after Paypal's "Pay now" button, and a great deal of frustraton for some of you. Sorry for that.

This was solved since thursday late evening, and you may proceed with your order :)

Second, we thought you might want to enjoy Antares live too! So you're invited to Old is Gold 11, on March 26th, Belgium.

Third: We have restocked our compilation Sundrops. We had no copies left, and Arabesque has been so kind as to give us 50 copies back just for our shop. We'll definitely run out of them within a year I think, so please make sure to get your own copy before it becomes a collector!

Fourth: I cannot resist to announce that our next reease will be Artifact303 album. Artifact303 is Zsolt Peter from Sighisoara, Romania. He already appeared in 7 compilations, including Sundrops and Opus Iridium (remember the wonderful "Feelings" and "Energy Waves Positive Mix" ?). His productions always feel like a hurricane: with influences from Israeli Goatrance if you wish, but add to that a modern, percussive and twirling flow of psychedelia hitting straight into your cortex!
Now imagine that over 9 tracks and you have an album with a very big caliber :) No wonder many, many poeople have been longing for it.
We're aiming at releasing it in May and we will keep you updated with a few extracts within a couple of weeks.

See you soon under the sun!

Hello

We want to thank you for the warm reviews of Electrypnose's Sweet Sadness. We're pleased you also like the Ambient music we're promoting and we hope there will be more. This was a long anticipated one, and Electrypnose was the right man with the right music.

Please know that the DivByZero webradio is organizing an event on this release on Friday 8th 20:0 CET.

Along with Electrypnose's, you may have noticed we put up on our store 3 more releases from partner labels:
- GMO vs Dense - Through Other Glasses (Altar rec, Ambient)
- Goasia - Dancing with the Blue Spirit (Kagdila, Goa)
- VA - Pure Planet 4 (Kagdila, Goa)

These are all excellent release, so please make sure to have a look!

As for the represses, please be patient, they're coming up soon.

See what I mean with "crazy banging psychedelia" ?

That's for 2010. And we're preparing for 2011 now :)
See you soon !!

We are welcoming today Inê, a Brazilian DJ, who's spreading good vibes around Sao Paulo.

Filteria advised us to hire her after his latest trip there in spring, and, well, it happend :)

With her energetic sets, we hope Inê will spread the Suntrip vibes and make you fly on the other side of the Atlantic Ocean too!!!

At the same time, we removed Javi from the artists list.

Make no mistake, he's a great DJ and is still part of the family! But as he was diagnosed some ear condition, loud environments are not advisable anymore now... That's just unfair, for everyone. All the more as he was starting to make great music on his own.

We are all hoping for the best, and depending on how things evolve, who knows, you might be able to book him again in the future :)

After a lot of Energy and a lot of Chaos, it's time to refresh ourselves, get back with our families and enjoy simple and peaceful moments.

Yeah we're going to live up our name, and travel in sunny countries, but you won't see us in any festival around. Still, don't hesitate to say hello to those who really make your day...day after day:

One more thing...

As you know, with us quality goes above everything else. At this very moment, a handful of our artists are working on their album with no deadline whatsoever :) So right now, we cannot tell who what and when will be our next uptempo release.

But we can tell  you about our next downtempo release, because... SUNCD20 wil be an Ambient album! We already worked with this artist and we're big fans of his music, so we're very happy this is happening. We believe it's going to be a very surprising album.

We'll update you in August...in the meantime, we wish you a really wonderful Summer!!!

Hello Suntrippers! Here's a long post, but you'll see it's full of news!

First, thank you all for the impressive reviews on Afgin's album. This is a real sunbeam for all of us :)
Go get it if you haven't heard it yet, you're missing something.

New releases, new plans:

Ok it's no secret anymore: Our next release will be Radical Distortion's new album, called "Psychedelic Dreams". We are stunned by the quality of the music brought by the Greek duo in their third opus. Expect serious psychedelic vibes with massive drives in SUNCD16!!!

Some extracts? Ok: check this:

And then? I was told E-Mantra is looking good. His music is trippy like hell, believe me. Will he be the next?

Well, maybe, maybe, "the" uplifting compilation will also come thanks to all the great promos we received recently...We don't know yet :)

Parties & Festivals:

While we're at it, if you want to taste Radical Distortion's album in advance, you should definitely attend the Dimensional party in Brussels, Belgium on Friday, June 26th. With them you'll see Future Prophecy, Echotek, Cosmo Circle, Liquid Flow, Chronos, Agneton, Chronos, N3xus...

Location: Brussels Event Brewery (De Bottelarij), Delaunoystraat 58, b/1, 1080 Brussels, Belgium
www.eventbrewery.com
You can reach the place via Metros 1,2,5,6, Tram 82,83,86 and Bus 20, 129, 190
There is also a big parking lot available 500m further: Parking Abatan, Jules Ruhlstraat, 1070 Anderlecht.

For those who haven't seen Filteria at Old is Gold 5, you may also go and see him the next day at the Rhakti Dei festival also in Belgium.

More? Ok. Afgin and Shakta are playing on June 27th in Budakeszi, Hungary at the "Trip to the Sun" party. Thanks for the tribute:)

More ? Ok. Filteria and Goasia are playing at the Aurora Festival 2009 in Greece! That's a festival we're promoting  because the lineups are unbelievable, the vibes are great, the weather is perfect and the crew is cool. Hence the banner on the left of the page. Rendez-vous the 19th to 24th of August.

By the way we're supposed to be the Aurora tickets resellers for the whole BeNeLux but we haven't received them yet. As soon as we have them, they will be available in our shop. In the meantime, just have a look at that crazy lineup:

Site updates:

We updated our website these days. We added credit cards as a new payment method in the shop, and corrected lots of bugs. Thanks to our patient customers who were sometimes their victims :)

Else, you should see our famous compilation Opus Iridium available unmixed in digital format any day from now. And we should have more Air compilation from Altar records back in stock very soon too...

That enables me to present you another new feature: the Suntrip shop's RSS/Atom threads (that comes on top of this newspage RSS/Atom). Add them to your favorite feedreader.

We will also take holidays. We will be away between the 21st and 28th of July and beteen the 19th and 25th of August. So don't be surprised if the shop is closed and if we don't reply to communications between these dates.

Well, that's all for today. As you can see, Goatrance has a lot of strong support throughout the world, and you should be able to attend great oldschool parties these days!

The cd was released a weak ago... In the mean time the first reviews start to pop up on psynews.org, and they are positive! :) we are glad you like this release! And to be sure more Goa trance will come in the future, try to support the labels... Even in this financial crisis!

Well...Is it?

Yes. It may look more or less the same as before, but there are a lot more funtionalities for all Suntrippers:
- better artists pages
- much better releases pages
- newsletter
- complete shop & customer space
- faq / privacy / security facts
- rss/atom feeds
- contact & promo submission pages
- and all the backend is more automated (that's a real relief for us)

Oh this is only half of a revolution. You can expect more features to come up in the next weeks :)

UPDATE: we are aware of the issues encountered by Google Chrome and Adobe Air users and will fix them within a couple of days.

In the meantime, if I were you, I'd jump on Merr0w's Born Underwater page, because it's here with long extracts, and it's already for sale as CD and FLAC in primer @ Suntrip !

Enjoy !!!
