Erotic Dream is a project developed by Guilherme Felipe da Silva Filho and Rodrigo Póvoa. They had their first contact with electronic music in 2002. At that time, the raves have begun to expand throughout all Brasilia city where they live.

Over these years, they have searched to know and to learn about the rhythms that shake the raves. With several friends DJs and producers in scene, they have their interest called to work with this.

In 2005, Guilherme went to Belo Horizonte in order to learn more by working in the best music studio of that city. In 2006, he returned to Brasilia and met Rodrigo, who was already doing his experiences with progressive trance. Then, they decided to join themselves to develop this project.

At last, after months into a studio, they presented their first production. Thus that they launched their work, they had a big surprise with the great public recognition. 2007 was a lucky year: they presented their work in many parties, beside national and international artists of a very good concept. Last year they launched also a virtual album called Progressive sensations, which was the starting point of the live.

Oscar Castañeda also known as Dj Skunk Beat was born in Guatemala City, Guatemala on the 07.10.1982 without knowing that music was the path he had to follow for the rest of his life. During childhood, he was influenced by new age, funk and disco music that his parents used to play all day.

Guatemala is a really small country and it is hard to find a big scene of everything but pop. When starting to develop his personality during puberty, rock and grunge dominated his musical horizon, musical genres which somewhat had a scene in Guatemala and developed a sense of belonging. He wanted to make a change, so he started to actively take part in a punk band as a guitar player. Everything was going well until in the year 2002 he discovered electronic music and has been hooked since.

He started djing and organizing psychedelic trance events in Central America at the end of 2002 and moved to Hamburg, Germany to continue his dj carreer in 2004. His dj sets can range from progressive trance to progressive house and electro to minimal techno. Blending these styles together into one tripadelic experience is his specialty. In the last two years he has been touring Europe and discovered that electronic music has so much to offer. In 2006 he co-founded Chaishop Records - a trance label focused on showcasing new talents in trance music.

Now he joined Planet B.E.N. records as A&R & Booking Manager.

His special mix - containing crunchy dark noises, pumping and pressing basslines and melodic influences - always drives the dancefloor crazy…

Now Salamander is sitting in his studio writing his first tracks….

Mantik is Arne Liedtke from "Sailing City" Kiel, Germany.

Since his first release "The Believer" on Headroom Productions in 2002 he released on different international labels like Zenon, Plastik Park, Horns and Hoofs, Midijum and some more. He was also a part of TriOptimum together with Unique Freak and Morja, which played on several events around germany.

Arne considers trance to be a state of mind and a concept of arranging music, not a fixed formular. Therefore he is bringing up elements from various electronic music genres in his productions, but everytime with his special flavour within. From time to time he is working together with BitShift, especially to perfom on stage with their unique fusion of liveacting, sampling and digital djing.

Born in Brazil, Pedro was strongly influenced by the diverse and deeply rooted traditions of his country. His ideals of unification begin in this rich culture. Throughout his life, Pedro has lived in countries on three continents, giving him a broad global perspective. Pedro participated in the development of the trance scene in Brazil, by being one of premiere Chill-Out DJs playing at festivals throughout the country and producing indoor/outdoor events that incorporated workshops and performances. When in New York, he was the resident DJ and special events coordinator for CoSM, co-creating the EntheoCentric Salon parties with Alex Grey. He has performed in events such as Universo Paralello, Trancendence, Burning Man, Tribe, Symbiosis, Ypy-Poty, Klatu just to mention some.
When playing, he uses Ableton Live to mix dub, lounge, glitch and trip-hop for a chiller vibe or minimal techno, electro and house for a dance setting. Fusing these styles with strong rhythmic influences from Brazil. With bass driven tracks, interchanging minimalist sounds, modern tribal rhythms and richly distorted synth he creates an uplifting experience through the spectrum of electronic music.
With a productive spring in San Francisco, Pedro joined Symbiosis, produced and performed at events such as How Weird Street Faire, Yuri’s Night Bay Area at NASA and SeedSource 1.0. He is now touring Brazil and Europe, playing at Trancendence, Tribe, Boom and many more events followed by the participation on the production of the Liminal Village with Naasko for Boom Festival.

It was the 1988 underground Acid House party scene that kick started fifteen year-old Dino into DJing. Then, with an eclectic set of drum ‘n bass, Detroit and Belgian techno and Acid House music, he further satiated his passion for playing to dance hungry crowds in Brighton, Bournemouth, London and Bristol, alongside Sasha and Digweed.

The early nineties saw him DJ at hardcore techno parties with the likes of Mr C, Weatherall, Groove Rider, Todd Terry, Tony Humphries, Adamski and Carl Cox, whilst enjoying a monthly residency at Baba G’s (Massive Attack) Bristol club and regular bookings at DIY festivals and Tonka parties.

In 1992 Dino was invited to go on Primal Scream’s Screamadelica tour with Paul Oakenfold and Mark Moore. He was then voted amongst the Top 20 up-and-coming House DJs in the world by MixMag. The next year, Dino travelled to India where he discovered Psychedelic Trance - a catalyst for change in his musical direction. Back in London he met Youth who made him the first Dragonfly DJ. Whilst at the label Dino also met the other signed talents of Martin Freeland (Man With No Name), Ben Watkins (Juno Reactor) and Simon Posford, and determined to not only play music but to create it as well. Under the three different monikers of Phreaky, Cydonia and Ayahusca, Dino collaborated to spawn his own brand of trance. Ayuhusca ( with Joti Sidhu and Steve Ronan) remixed ‘Rise’, the first release by Paul Oakenfold on his Perfecto Fluoro label. It wasn’t long before Dino was recognised as one of the best DJs in this scene.

From 1994 onwards Dino DJ’d around the globe: in Australia at the first Rainbow Serpent party, in America at Burning Man ’95 and ‘96, at the Berlin Love Parade and at indoor venues and outdoor parties in South Africa, Brazil, Russia, Paris, Belgrade, Israel Japan, Yugoslavia and Goa. Not forgetting of course back home in good ol’ Brighton with Sven Vath.

In London he started his own club, ‘ACID – A Concept In Dance’ with Ian St Paul (Spectrum, Future) and Mike Maguire (Juno Reactor), which was acclaimed as one of the first trance nights in London. A legendary label of the same name sprang up to release the first tracks of artists such as Man With No Name, Paul Jackson, Universal Sound, Cydonia, Ayahuasca and Psychaos. The label’s eponymous album ‘A.C.I.D.’ is one of the highest selling trance albums to date.

It was around this time that Dino bumped into an old friend from Brighton, Simon Gahari to whose boss at B&W, Robert, Dino introduced most of the major artists in the scene: Juno Reactor, X Dream, KoxBox, Total Eclipse, MWNN – the Blue Room label was born. Along with his brother and two other partners Dino established his own Atomic label in order to differentiate and evolve his sonic preferences. His intent was to achieve high quality sound as opposed to what was then called Goa Trance music, which had little production and was in danger of sounding like the same track over again. Atomic released tracks from artists such as Tim Schuldz, Morphem, Semsis, MWNN, Cydonia and Tortured Brain (Dino’s first solo project) before closing down due to the typical malaise of distribution difficulties. Nevertheless, the label managed to release an initial compilation entitled ‘Kiss The Future’ along with nine albums spanning chill-out to techno.

Dino’s first solo album is entitled ‘Dino Psaras – Lick It’, released on Ocktava Records; a collection of varied tracks to be both savoured on the sofa and pumped out at parties. Most are solo ventures but there are collaborations with MWNN, X Dream and Raz Helalat, as well Keith Emmerson’s (ELP) son Aaron on keyboards. Current projects include ‘Mosquito’ (with Raz Helalat and Ian Rive (Cydonia)) who are working towards an album that harnesses the vocal talents of Diane Charlemagne (Moby) on one of its tracks and Val (Groove Armada) on another. The trio also have a Tech House album coming out with Visionquest, one of the biggest trance organisations in Japan.

Recently Dino has remixed for Tim Schuldt and Serge (Antidote) and is working on tracks for Chemical Crew. He has also found time to begin his next solo album that will be released by Visionquest Tokyo. It promises more banging sounds for the dance floor but maintains a unique edge; one that dispels any notions of monotony and continues to keep Dino a cut above the rest.

Kei Fujishiro is one of the true veterans of Tokyo's psychedelic trance scene. He first began to DJ in 1990, spinning techno and trance as a regular at Tokyo's legendary Club 3D. In 1995 when the Goa Trance wave swept through Tokyo, Kei embraced it. He was a resident DJ of the Time Trance crew, one of the first to do parties in Tokyo, where he played alongside such legendary artists as Astral Projection, Transwave, Total Eclipse, GPIS, and many more.
Trips around the world have seen Kei play at many major trance hotspots, such as the squat parties in Germany, parties in Nepal, Bangladesh and in Hong Kong. In 2001 Kei focused his energies an Cluintrix, a music store and cafe in Tokyo, which has rapidly become an insitution in Japan, being Tokyo's only purely psytrance store.
Kei has recently also begun to produce music, and together with Kuromitsu he has created the Indigo Explorer project, Indigo Explorer is inspired by the roots of psychedelic trance, and combines it with modern ideas and production values to create a fresh sound.
Keys DJ style is a very emotional psychedelic story, generating smooth waves of groove in the morning.

In order to fuse the electronic with the acoustic, he decided to learn more about sound, engaging an audio engineering degree.
Mikeldi and Carlos began making music together about 7 years ago, they both started a rock band and played together in various local spots for quite some time. After a few years of playing together, they realized the limitations that they faced by only being able to play a few instruments at a time, they felt a need for expanding the horizons of their music. They started producing lounge, using both computers and acoustic instruments as tools for music composition. Later on, they were introduced into the psy-trance scene, and were influenced by such artists as infected mushroom, gms, astrix, astral projection, etc. which brought a new light upon the duo and exposed them to the new age of music creation. Driven by this new discovery, their interest not only for music but for sound also developed. They both are currently living in Madrid, Spain where they carrie out their studies. Bio Genesis have now been producing full-on trance for about 2 years and have brought together various elements, developing their own style. They describe their music as a fusion of the melodic morning sounds with the crunchy dark noises, all woven together by an organic, phat, groovy bass line, and driven by dynamic beats, which in the end compose a mesh of sounds that create a hybrid bio genetic sound.

The sensitive, handsome ears of Mikari,christioned Michael Righetti,first perceived the sounds of the world in the year 1974.
Finely tuned as an professional sound engineer in Duesseldorf,Germany, they were,so to speak,ea(r)ger for new acoustic dimensions.The Psy Trance scene was to offer this and much more…

Surfing the sound waves all over Europe for the last 7 year,Mikari developed a keen sense for this style of music and advanced to weave his own distinct carpet of sounds.
After experimenting in smaller clubs,he entered the domain of the FX Sessoins in the Wuppertaler Butan Club as resident DJ an continued on to perform at the following venues:
- Lagoona / Muenster
- Summer X-Plosion / Münster
- Synchron Club / Dortmund
- Shanti Lounge / Dortmund
- Experimental Dose OA / Bochum

Mikari spins selective, progressive full on sets,tantalizing the membranes of the heares receptive organs of sound, releasing the heart and soul to tumble in the garden of fractal vegetation.
