 █▀░░    PsyCZ group was formed in spring 2001 by its first three members ...  ░░▀█
 █▀░   But as every group grows and gets new members, new people joined PsyCZ   ░▀█
 █▀░   to help us in our mission. Our main common loved genere was psychedelic  ░▀█
 █▀░   ... of course, but everone of us likes several more genres. This caused, ░▀█
 █▀░   that several members began to demand releasing other music styles such   ░▀█
 █▀░   as ambient, drum&bass and few more ... So we realized, that our original ░▀█
 █▀░   name PsyCZ is a little uncomfortable, because it highlights our psy -    ░▀█
 █▀░   sight. After few days of debates we decided to found new sub-group ...   ░▀█
 █▀░   and here we are ... PsyCZ_NP will bring you plenty of non psychedelic    ░▀█
 █▀░   music ... especially ambient, but some other genres are planned too.     ░▀█
 █▀░   Why did we decide for non-psy? Changing of the group name isn't possible ░▀█
 █▀░   so possibilities we had was only adding a suffix to current group name   ░▀█
 █▀░░  ... so have chosen non-psy, because it's clearest and most fluent ...   ░░▀█
 █▀░░░                                                                        ░░░▀█

 █▀║   The first album coming from the top of the hill in one of the least      ║▀█
 █▀║   populated areas of Germany. A view of nothing but nature. In his new     ║▀█
 █▀║   studio, high end technology meets pure serenity and the creative mind    ║▀█
 █▀║   longs for a rest, a pause, a release.                                    ║▀█

 █▀║   Occasional visits to Frankfurt cause flashbacks to urban life. When      ║▀█
 █▀║   you look at this life from a distant view you start to understand how    ║▀█
 █▀║   far this way of living is from our origin. This CD is made for people    ║▀█
 █▀║   living in urban environments to help them find the center of their       ║▀█
 █▀║   well-being again. Static sounds develop in an organic way.. sound        ║▀█
 █▀║   mantras that transcend through seven parts helping to lie down and       ║▀█
 █▀║   listen.. let go.. release.....                                           ║▀█

 █▀║   If most artists in contemporary electronica are like islands unto        ║▀█
 █▀║   themselves, turning out tracks in relative anonymity, Pete "Namlook"     ║▀█
 █▀║   Kuhlmann is a whole continent. A dizzyingly prolific composer who's      ║▀█
 █▀║   steadily built up an entire industry around his Frankfurt-based Fax      ║▀█
 █▀║   label, Namlook's name is inextricably linked with the post-rave          ║▀█
 █▀║   resurgence of ambient music, and many of his solo and collaborative      ║▀█
 █▀║   recordings with the likes of Mixmaster Morris, Tetsu Inoue, Klaus        ║▀█
 █▀║   Schulze, Bill Laswell, Richie Hawtin, Geir Jenssen, Dr. Atmo, Burhan     ║▀█
 █▀║   Ocal, Atom Heart, Jonah Sharp, Charles Edwards, and David Moufang,       ║▀█
 █▀║   among many others, number among the most lauded and influential in new   ║▀█
 █▀║   ambient. Although Namlook got his start releasing quasi-new age (as      ║▀█
 █▀║   Romantic Warrior) and hard trance (as Sequential, 4Voice, Escape,        ║▀█
 █▀║   Deltraxx, and a host of others), he and his label have become            ║▀█
 █▀║   synonymous with new ambient since Fax began exclusively releasing the    ║▀█
 █▀║   style shortly after the label formed in 1992. Fax helped give shape to   ║▀█
 █▀║   ambient's new school by allowing the artists to freely experiment        ║▀█
 █▀║   while making a living from their music. (Fax's label structure confers   ║▀█
 █▀║   the majority of its profits to its artists.) Countless Fax releases,     ║▀█
 █▀║   particularly those dating from 1993 and 1994, are considered classics    ║▀█
 █▀║   of contemporary electronic ambient, and while the label has suffered a   ║▀█
 █▀║   certain degree of repetition in recent years, Fax remains one of the     ║▀█
 █▀║   most important and influential German electronic music labels. Namlook   ║▀█
 █▀║   has been criticized for adopting a quality-over-quantity approach --     ║▀█
 █▀║   his label's release schedule was up to a CD per week for more than a     ║▀█
 █▀║   year, and currently produces 24 per year, many of them Namlook's own     ║▀█
 █▀║   -- but he's succeeded in attracting a devoted, ravenous following that   ║▀█
 █▀║   allows him and his label to continue releasing new music. To date Fax    ║▀█
 █▀║   has released more than 250 full-length CDs, dozens of 12-inches, and     ║▀█
 █▀║   several compilations -- including the sprawling 4-CD Ambient Cookbook,   ║▀█
 █▀║   which remains the best introduction to the label -- and has expanded     ║▀█
 █▀║   to included four Fax-related labels and two subsidiary labels (Rather    ║▀█
 █▀║   Interesting and Headphone, run by Atom Heart and Higher Intelligence     ║▀█
 █▀║   Agency's Bobby Bird, respectively). Fax releases have been licensed      ║▀█
 █▀║   for reissue by R&S, Music Man, Rising High, Instinct and Injection.      ║▀█
 █▀║   With distributors on three continents and a small universe of Web        ║▀█
 █▀║   sites devoted to reviewing, trading, and collecting Fax titles, the      ║▀█
 █▀║   label and its proprietor have long since passed the stage of             ║▀█
 █▀║   phenomenon and crossed over to institution.                              ║▀█
 █▀║   Musically, Namlook draws most recognizably on the synthscapes of         ║▀█
 █▀║   artists such as Klaus Schulze and Hans Jochim Roedelius, combing the     ║▀█
 █▀║   droning electronics of those artists with, depending on the project or   ║▀█
 █▀║   collaborator, ethnic instrumentation (tabla, tambouri, oud),             ║▀█
 █▀║   environmental samples (rain, voices, arriving and departing trains,      ║▀█
 █▀║   wildlife), sweeping electronic treatments (the bubbly undercurrents of   ║▀█
 █▀║   Dreamfish or the drifting synthetic landscapes of 2350 Broadway), and    ║▀█
 █▀║   minimal acoustic and electronic rhythms (jungle, electro, techno, and    ║▀█
 █▀║   trance). His collaborations tend to outdo his solo recordings,           ║▀█
 █▀║   although a few of his solo works are among Fax's finest. Though hard     ║▀█
 █▀║   to find, the two volumes of The Definitive Ambient Collection offer a    ║▀█
 █▀║   good introduction to Namlook's early work. Subsequent compilations of    ║▀█
 █▀║   more recent material have appeared at somewhat regular intervals; due    ║▀█
 █▀║   to the wide variety of styles pursued by various projects,               ║▀█
 █▀║   compilations may be the best place to start.                             ║▀█

 █▀║  As time goes by, the world matures. PsyCZ has matured and the scene has   ║▀█
 █▀║  matured. PsyCZ started releasing in VBR over two years ago, and was met   ║▀█
 █▀║  with skepticism. As time went by, more and more realised that VBR is      ║▀█
 █▀║  superiour to cbr 192. Finally, now in 2004, VBR is allowed by the scene.  ║▀█
 █▀║  PsyCZ will also in 2004 continue to bring you the finest psychedelic      ║▀█
 █▀║  trance music from around the world, as we have since 2001.                ║▀█
