PsyPneumatix kick off another year of roaring events with two of Mexicos best for an exlusive gig on the North Coast. ANDRREAS (Nano records.)-Mexico Andrreas was introduced to the psy trance scene in early '96, at a party featuring Astral Projection and Nick Doof. Straight away he began DJing at small indoor and outdoor parties. He teamed up with Kinetik and together started organizing the biggest events in Mexico such as the Neurobiotic label party, and Earthdance. Over time he became one of Mexico's favourite DJs, playing every weekend in different cities all over the country alongside such acts as; Astrix, Noma, Xerox, Fuerhake, Deedarh, Synthetic, Sun Project, Sub 6, Sam@Chaishop, Altom, DJ Edoardo, Beat Bizarre, Analog Pussy, D Tek, Oforia, Visual Paradox, Space Cat, Total Eclipse and more. Andrreas has also played at the New Years Eve Moondance festival in Kho Payam, Thailand. In 2003 Andrreas became an official label DJ of the South African based Nano Records, home of international acts; Protoculture, Commercial Hippies, Silver Surfers, The Electric Ant, Hydrophonic and more. Also in 2003, he releases his first track "Sawasdee" with DJ Eclypso on the Earthdance Mexico 2003 compilation, released by KNK records. In 2004 Andrreas traveled to Melbourne, Australia, together with loco (1/2 of Mindelight) to study Sound Production and explore new territories. He met the Modulated Monkey crew not long after he arrived and together helped forge several successful events including the Aus vs. Mex series, which hosted acts such as Ozzy, Fractal Glider, Fridler on the Roof, Leghohead, Psychoactive, Midelight and more including sets by DJ Andrreas. Andrreas has also played at other various events such as Rainbow Serpant Festival 2005, the Earthcore Carnival '04 and Earthcore's Honto and Bliss series of events and has also flown to Sydney to play alongside Dimitri and to play outdoors on NYE 04/05. -he leaves to go back to Mexico in April, this is more than likely last gig in Aus. for some time!!An act not to be missed! MINDELIGHT (MP rec.)-Mexico One of the main trance liveacts in Mexico, Henan Arber and Javier Calzada make up this groovy-funky-morning trance group.

At the end of that year she moved from Australia to London and began collecting vinyl, something that was much more difficult to do in Australia at the time. She played at underground psytrance parties put on by Secret Squirrels, Viking Crew, and ID Spiral/Liquid Connective. Also interested in music production, Beka spent a lot of time in the studio with her partner at the time, Erik (Zencats-Transient). This prompted her to buy a laptop and explore the possibility of DJing with this format. After their child (Jasper) was born Beka spent some months in Australia and some months in England, always getting involved in outdoor parties when she had the time. At the end of 2001 she left England for Australia once again and was involved in the first major trance festival in Koh Phangan for New Years 2001/2002, where she was given the opportunity to organise the chill out area DJs. The next 12 months were spent in Australia getting to know the scene there once again and playing at many outdoor parties, and festivals. March 2003 saw Beka playing in Goa, one of her favourite experiences to date, and the Europe summer of 2004 saw her playing at the OMNI Festival in Spain. Already she has bookings for next summer in Europe, including OMNI Festival again. With North Coast Amigos who need no introduction: FRESH(PsyPneumatix) and LAUNCHPAD. This will be a night not to be missed. Attendees(and only attendees of this party) will most likely b given the chance to attend a private intimate outdoor after-party(the next night) with most of the same psy trance amigos from the main party. (note well-u only get the chance to attend both if u go to the main party on the Friday night). see you there.
