Unlike the doors quote & associated xdream track - turbo paced psytrance doesn't really seem to be based on much herb love. This is how we walk on the moon is a quote from Arthur Russell - a classically trained cellist and LSDophile who was a fringe player in psychedellic disco scene - the comp of his tunes on souljazz is fairly essential How did the mistake happen? Well Quintessence early music by raja ram is fairly flowing - perhaps he wanted to establish a much harder aspect to his creativity with his mantra that 145bpm was where it was at ![]() So the contention is that the whole genre of psytrance might have overshot the best Bpm for dance and is exploring faster - as evidenced by mrGil who is keen to dissosociate his tunes from disco - when paradoxically if we tried slower we'd find the sweet spots! An example might be to try bouncing on the balls of your feet - or swinging arms from shoulders - with short boned like wrist joint high frequency oscillation works - but longer limbs actually resonate at fairly slow rhythms - certainly in relation to the tempo of psytrance - esp faster stuff Last time mention but my far from unique proposal is that bio-mechanically there's a tempo range that is most suited to the way human bodies move. ![]() He does dj at silly fast too - it's funny tho because if you watch youtube clips of the dancers they are moving less energetically than at scenes where the music is slower!
