mushroom newsletter
22 tracks for download and heaps of info

Quite some time has passed by since our last newsletter. Accordingly it is packed with heaps of news today. You find the recent mushroom issue here in a digital version. If you would like to have the printed version sent to you and grab some wicked extras, you should check out our new subscription offer. Beside up to 10 CDs this one includes bonuses like DVDs, bongs, bags, shishas and much more…

This time we have 22 tracks for free download! Popular Klopfgeister deliver a whole ambient album called “Early Ambient Tunes”. Minor well known but still amazingly kicking is Tsabeat’s album “Attractive Synthesis”. And finally all mushroom subscribers can enjoy the bombastic hit “West” by Mr. Peculiar.

Quite some of you already asked when the voting for our recent Trance Producer Contest will finally start. We still have to struggle through all the contributions, so please hold on a little more- the voting will start very, very soon!

Unfortunately two misprints have slipped in the last issue which we absolutely have to correct.
1) The “Psychedelic Forum 2” (a list of the speakers is now online) and the following “Psychedelic Experience Party” in Switzerland will not take place on 24th March 2008 in Basel but from 11th to 13th April 2009 in Wetzikon close to Zürich.
2) For the Tala Vinayasa party on 3rd April 2009 the wrong venue was pronounced. The party will not take place in Pumpe but in Oppendorfer Straße 17.

And now we wish you lots of fun with browsing the news from the Trance Scene!

Symbolika
  
the mushroom cover artist
Fabian Klaimann did everything right: In 1998 he closed down his design agency in Israel to travel around the planet for some years. This journey drew his interest to symbolism, spirituality and visionary psychedelic art which inspired him to start his alternative t-shirt label Symbolika. Today he spends the winters in Indian Goa, where he designs new clothes. In spring he moves to Israel to produce these clothes and finally he spends the summer with hopping from festival to festival to sell them.   [more...]
