***** SPACE TRIBE ( LIVE ) *****

Space Tribe is Olli Wisdom, originally from England, now living in the Rainforest near Byron Bay, Australia. He has been a pioneer of Psychedelic Trance for many years.

In the early 80’s Olli was the singer in the theatrical Goth/Glam band “The Specimen”, & ran the famous London goth club â€œ The Batcave â€œ. After the band split up in 1986 Olli went traveling in Asia and in 1988 came to Koh Phangan in Thailand where he first encountered the fantastic electro-driven wild psychedelic parties on the beach.

Instantly hooked, he immersed himself into the music and has never looked back. He stayed there for 2 years, DJing, and set up a small studio and making tracks for the parties, before moving to Goa, India.

Over the next 4 years, Olli spent his time mostly in Goa, but now starting to travel around making parties in other places (San Francisco, Switzerland, UK, Japan), spreading the word and turning people on. In 1993, Olli, his brother Miki, and Richmond started Space Tribe clothing in Bali. The fractal fluoro party gear was an instant success, and now you can see it at parties all over the planet.

In 1995, the first Space Tribe tracks were hatched in the studio with Simon Posford (Hallucinogen/Sphongle), and everything flowed from there. Olli moved out to the rainforest in Byron Bay in Australia, and set up the Rainforest Space Base studio. Space Tribe released the first album, ‘Sonic Mandala’ on Spirit Zone in 1996, and since then Space Tribe has released at least an album a year. In 2004 Space Tribe Music was set up as a record label providing an out let for Space Tribe releases & compilation albums.

Space Tribe also makes many tracks in collaboration with other artists â€” including Absolum, Sirius Isness, X-Dream, GMS, Menog, CPU, Psywalker & especially Electric Universe, working under the name ESP.

Olli travels all over the world, playing live at parties and bringing joy to the thousands of dancers who know exactly why they are there. Space Tribe parties have lifted the spirit and tweaked the synapses in Australia, Brazil, Japan, South Africa, Israel, America, Thailand, India, Ibiza, Bali, England, Germany, Hungary, Holland, France, Sweden, Norway, Denmark, Finland, and many more places.

From Burning Man to Voov Experience, from the mountains in Japan to the beach in Goa… Next party? Maybe on Sirius B!!! Nar.. its Deja Vu 4 in Melbourne this Saturday!

***** IRON MADNESS ( LIVE & DJ ) *****

Ziv Vanier was born in 1986, and lives in city Quiryat Ata, in Israel. Ziv started his musical journey at a tender age of 11 where he learned to play mouth organ and various other musical instruments.

When he experienced psytrance for the first time at age 14, it was beyond anything he had ever imagined in terms of musical grasp, and he felt the immense beauty and depth in the music. It was inevitable that he soon he decided to make this music and at the age of 15 he started producing under the name Iron Madness.

And he’s off! The crowd goes wild! Waves of undeniable energy wash over the sea of flailing arms and blissful smiles of those who have been touched by the chaotic twisted sounds of Iron Madness.

The environment he creates is one of pure unadulterated human emotion, reaching into the source of our greatest fears and at the same time our greatest strengths. His sounds guide our minds from the deepest depth of depraved darkness to the hope and happiness of a beautiful twilight.

Even the obstinate noddies and two-step wonders don’t stand a chance against his unparalleled ability to bring the forces of extreme madness to the dance floor. When he plays, you WILL dance!

His debut album ” Slaughter Shiver ” has been exquisitely engineered and supremely mastered to be a tremendous exhilarating spiritual journey of rediscovery of one’s self through the transcendental connection.

Zivâ€™s energy and unique blend of dark twisted tunes and powerful twilight notes make his tracks a must-have for any psytrance lover or DJ.

Just press play and watch the dance floor get destroyed! This masterpiece will surely send psychedelic shivers down your spineâ€¦
