d.N.x ~ p.D.m Psycheddelic.Dance.Music - My return to psychedelic trance since recording Alien Disko Funk in 99 and the birth of d.N.x. Most of the tracks aren't too hard, some have a few trancey undertones here and there but yeah, here you go.

A Wicked Tribal Ritual In Paradise

Recorded as a promo for the Winter Music Conference in South Beach this past spring, this cd is a combination of mellow-driving tribal trance, with a few tracks that sort of spell out the title. Those who have heard it understand.....

2004

d.N.x - psykofunkadelica. More PSYTRANCE, yeah! This was recorded using only cd's, mostly from tracks I edited from compilations or vinyl on my computer, then burnt back onto cd, then mixed into this full-on kicker. The tempo's aren't too crazy for most, but some of the tracks might be.

A followup to the recent 'A Wicked Tribal Ritual in Paradise' - this cd follows the progressive/tribal sound picking up the sound right where the previous had left off.

Becky's coming home...... A very special mix for my beautiful wife, including most of her favorite songs she's asked me to mix for her for some time now. :) 'Running up that Hill' is next.... 2005
Live @ Dreamfields, Beloit WI Sept 05 Full-on hard driving psytrance dNx recorded live from Dreamfields in Beloit, WI

2005

d.N.x ~ lick the circuitboard - Another full on dose of energetic psytrance by d.N.x, the darker side of dan efex when it comes to driving energetic psychedelic basslines laced with twisted controlled analog mayhem spewing over layers of lush synthlines and craniumknocking percussive beats that show no mercy for the weak. This one starts right off by audibly showing you what happens when you lick the circuitboard, and then pounds the aftermath in your head for the next 80 minutes of your life thereafter.

2006
- Another Dan Efex mix completed in the month of March, the same time of year both 'wicked tribal ritual in paradise' mixes were recorded. I think the idea of warm weather and going to South Beach at the end of each March get's me in the mood for some of this type of stuff. If there were to be a 'final wicked tribal ritual in paradise, this would be it. (please right click, save target as) [playlist] 2006

Dan Efex - Velvet.Pixel.Mystizm - This mix features tracks that fall under the progressise trance and house umbrella, with a bit of etherialism behind most of them. This isn't stuff I'd generally play out, unless the sun was rising and everyone had been up all night dancing to high energy or fast techno.

d.N.x ~ xS.Yv Here's another energetic peice by dee.ehn.ecks on the psytrance bit - silently and secretly dedicated to the Iowa trance scene, this one's finally on the wire. For those who know what this is all about, here's your serving.

2007

Dan Efex - As heard by others. Here's a long one on the tech progressive tip that turns into techno that transitions to some trance and then back towards some more progressive techno to I don't know. Call it what you want, I just picked the tracks and recorded it for how it's all heard by others. This recording can also be found on second life at Groovenation courtesty of owner and resident dj Groovechampion Boyd!

Dan Efex - Episode: Infared This one was recorded for a friends radio show - Roman Red. A progressive number with a techier less epic feel. If you didn't catch this one off of his podcast at www.romanred.com you can get it here by right click as selecting save as (playlist)

2008

d.N.x ~ HirensRevenge A wicked psytrance gem from d.N.x that delivers a nice fullon dose of bass that darkens out quite a bit later on in the mix. 'Infinite Journey' is the next one on deck, but for now this should do your speakers some driving satisfaction. (right click, save as)(no playlist yet)

2008
Dan Efex - Running Up That Hill So there's this track, Running up the Hill that I've played a few times at some local parties here, right. The girls love this song everytime it's played, and since hearing it the 1st time they've asked me to record it for them. Well after dragging my feet a little and being asked again or I get my ass kicked around, here it is. Proggy trancey almost house with a touch of vocals so you can sing along.

2008

Dan Efex - Broken Radio. Here's one I did before going to Miami again this year, cept this time there's no wicked tribal ritual. Following a techier sound, this progressive mix starts out on the funkier tip before tracking along where you'd think you might go if you'd heard something like this before. If that doesn't make sense to you then give it a listen to see for yourself... (right click, save as) (playlist)

 
d.N.X ~ imaginary journey Another psytrance stormer from d.N.x. Though this one won't take you into the dark realms that Hirens Revenge did after getting you all excited the last time around, it will leave you in your happy place and if anything, thirsty for more. (right click, save as) (playlist)  
Dan Efex - Listen & Feel. After years of neglecting good emotional trance when it came to recording mixes, I've finally decided it was time to get off of the progressive techno for a bit and crank out a nice trancey gem - one that'll hopefully have people emailing soon telling me how the music has taken them places. Well, I am very happy with how this mix turned out, so if you're able to give this your full listening attention then let me know what you think. (right click, save as) (playlist)  
Dan Efex - Sticky If your eardrums are soft & you don't like hearing your speakers spit bass on everything, then this miiight not be for you. Electro acid tech minimal house beat rythm groove sensationalistic mashery is all that comes to mind right now when I think about what to say on this raunchy little cruncher.
