Ianuaria

Hi! My name is Josef Hofinger, born in Austria, I`m a DJ since 1996 and I'm producing my own music since 2002. I started my musical career at the age of 6 as a drummer. I visited the music school for eleven years and played in various kinds of ensembles. During that period, I played bongos, congas, many other percussion instruments and subsequently the didgeridoo.
At the age of 16 I discovered the magic of vinyl, and started off as a DJ with techno music. Later, I bought my first psytrance record and directly fell in love with this kind of music.

RAZ

1. Raz is Raz Kfir from Israel, a master of psytrance. His debut album Twisted fairytale on Sundance Records offers us new perspectives into powerful melodic trance. His music is filled to the brim with power, ecstatic emotion and brooding atmosphere, layered with bass lines so phat you can carve your Sunday roast on them. The melodies are unique & rich and uplifting, and some also take on a distinctive sinister dark edge…producing a war inspired apocalyptic “The world is ending” vibe. taken from http://www.sundance23.com/RAZmedia.htm
