Hooked by Psytrance since 1996, Armin from South Germany became known as DJ Boom Shankar during the Asian party season 2001 / 2002 when the 2-metre man played some impressive sets during the Full Moon and Black Moon parties on Koh Pha Ngan. Around the same time he founded Brother Moon Sister Sun (BMSS), a creative collective of like-minded Trance freaks. His passion for djing brought him to stages all around the world, some of the most remarkable ones being Ozora, Glade or Antaris, where he caused mass-euphoria with his powerful Psytrance sets, sometimes quoting oldschool, sometimes classic UK sound. This year, he can be heard at Somuna, Antaris or Timegate, among others.
Alex aka Alexsoph from the South German Lake of Constance also started djing around 2002, rapidly gaining reputation for his Progressive Psytrance with a distinctly groovy and pumping touch. Probably even more important: He always keeps eye-contact with his audience, creating a very personal vibe. Numerous gigs all around Europe include Transylvania Calling or Summer Never Ends Festival. Alex used to be part of the BMSS collective from the beginning, working together with Boom Shankar as the label’s A&Rs since 2009. Djing together, Boom Shankar & Alexsoph (also known as ABS) stand for a mighty double dose of intelligent Psytrance, sometimes drifting towards uplifting Progressive sounds. Everything blended together by perfect mixing skills and a maximum of dance floor commitment. |
