Psychedelic Trance
yes
A fan of all that is dark, twisted, and psychedelic. Cyberwlf constantly seeks out the latest and most innovative in dark psychedelic night music, always looking to take his sound to the next level and push new boundaries.
From regular party goer turn DJ/Promoter/Organiser/Radio show host, Cyberwlf has been listening to electronic music since the late 80s. Natural progression lead him to discovering Goa-trance and then later on PsyTrance as well. Being a fan of Industrial, Metal, and Alternative music, Dark Psychedelic Trance became an instant love for him, and a passion he has spent many years exploring.
Nabi Records, who I am the Australasian representitive for! A label which has been pushing the edges of the dark psychedelic trance genre in recent years now. Also worth mentioning is the Australian artist Melbourne, Pondscum.
I actually didn't want to DJ, and had originally wanted to start an electro-industrial band. The guitar and keyboard needed to even get this started never happened, and through just being a general music fanatic, I ended up being offered and took up my own show on the Internet Radio station PulseRadio.net. This gave me the skills and understanding of track selection, flow, and later the technical
One where keeping the music fresh, interesting, and challenging are key factors. Always seeking new sounds to explore, with a major orientation towards dark, twisted, and psychedelic trance music.
Could mention many names, but it wouldn't change what I am about.
Even though it allows some underground genres room to grow, the more commercial and bland genres have become more and more popular, and it kills musical innovation, as dance music shifts more towards being pop music. Underground styles of music have had their venues pulled from under them so vendors could use the venues for more commercially viable genres. I can only hope this changes.
DRM is a flawed system, it more often than not shows an ineptitude of the people who create these standards to understand the practical and legitimate uses of the technology.
Filesharing can be as good as it can be bad, underground artists can hit the big time through their music being illegally traded, but it's no good when hard working artists are constantly robbed of their earnings due to people being too tightass to spend a couple of dollars on music they obviously get a lot of value out of.
New and interesting music, solid outdoor parties with quality production.
Most outdoor psy-trance parties around Sydney/Newcastle in Australia.
I hope to take on equally twisted/psychedelic yet uplifting morning sounds, as well as find a solid transition sound.

hip hop
yes
Issue 1 to Issue 14 :)
hip hop magazine (Stealth Magazine) publisher, writer, event organiser
Too many too many. Most of the stuff I personally like I try to cover in the magazine so if you go through our back issues that will give you a partial indication.
Yes – each issue:) I have a tonne of MDs, cassettes and reel-to-reels of interviews I've done over the years. I want to get them online one day.
We cover hip hop and artists from around the world who understand and take an interest in the culture they are involved in.
Not sure about non-hip hop but the hip hop community is pretty cool. It used to get a bit feisty but generally speaking there are people you can connect with who are building with a similar vision and it just feels like Voltron pushing down barriers. It’s pretty cool to be a part of.
It isn't going to go away. It just means that smart groups will find a way to use it to their advantage and explore other revenue streams that they can generate.
The quality of local hip hop is just getting better across the board. It used to be about a handful of the major cities in Australia. Now there are crews doing really good stuff all over the place. It's inspiring.
