Psytrance EDM producers / musician duo
Psytrance is a subgenre of electronic music characterized by fast, repetitive, synthetic rhythms, layered melodies, and high-tempo riffs, creating a hypnotic and immersive sound. It developed from Goa trance, with a fast tempo often exceeding 140 beats per minute. The "psychedelic" aspect comes from the genre's immersive, textural soundscapes and its historical connection to psychedelic rock, though the term "psychedelic" here also refers to its intent to induce altered states of consciousness.
