'Life' is great! Sort of reminds me of some of Massive attack's tunes. They ended up being labelled as 'trip hop'. Maybe take that as your cue and call it 'trip-step' (or something equally lame) instead of Psychedelic Garage.

^Why I personally prefer the term "acid garage" (acid jazz associations aside). Has more of a rave connotation, and tune like Whistla's "It Began in London" are like pure 92-era 'ardkore for me, but in a garage template.
Call it what you want though, fucking exciting movement anyway.

yeh at no point was I trying to "genre-afy" and i thought i made thta very clear.
and yes Todds hectic vocal cuts can be very odd/wierd in the kinda way some of us are trying to push, he is a big influence on what me and my peers are trying to achieve right now!
i just think Psychedelic Garage works a way of describing this stuff right now as it doesnt fit into dubstep or nu skool garage particulary well either way
and yeah Burial started it all for me so big influence always!

DJ Whistla wrote:Origins of the name are from a gig i played @ Braindrop where the promoter came up to me going "wow man this is like Garage but Psychedelic, Psychedelic Garage!"
and the name has stuck cos it kind of rings truer than saying simply dubstep or garage, being as neither really describe what a number of us are trying to do with our productions.
Whereas Psychedelic Garage does give you more of an idea what the music is actually like.
Ofc Todd Edwards is the don dada, but imo no-one ever took what he was doing with vocals and pushed it to the next, this is one of the things I am trying to do in my music, as well as numerous other things!
I think it is fair to say that the people building this stuff are not covered by either the terms "dubstep" or simply "garage", in a dubstep nite people will just constantly come up to you saying "whens the dubstep gonna start" and in a garage nite people will just want to hear the classics.
Whereas a seperate entity "Psychedelic Garage" instantly means your boundaries of what garage is have been pushed out wide and far
Ultimately its all Garage whether it be Dubstep or Psychedelic, the names just help people to reference different aspects of this music we love
Whistla you are on point! Of course.

Personally speaking im feeling the futuristic new wave of 2-step/Garage that certain producers are dealing with at the moment,regardless of how its bracketed,its all part of the underground continuum and good for the scene.
Check out the new track i just put up on myspace called "Blue Steel" for some future Garage vibes!
Peace!

Been thinking about this a bit, and one of the things I love about this style is that it's stopping the 2-step revival from being airbrushed and sanitized, by bringing in the cheesier, girlier and ravier sounds from back in the day, and twisting them into bizarre new shapes. Please let us never lose the female vocals and synth melodies.
