The atmosphere (especially the bassline, the guy's voice and the small but important sound effects in the background) sounds like good Psytrance to me. I might do not know enough about this genre, but 135 bpm sounds very slow to me, due this speed usually is the usual speed of "normal" Trance for myself. A proper Psytrance track doesn't need to come close to the shreddered sounds of today's Darkpsy with 180 minutes long mixes, which sound very monotonic from the beginning to the end tmo, but have you ever played your track at 145-160 bpm? I have no idea how it sounds at that speed, but I'd at least give it a try.

Cheers man. :) Psytrance seems to vary massively in tempo tbh but I like it at this speed, much more room for everything to breathe.
I've updated now with loads of new bits - http://soundcloud.com/audio-warfare/audio-warfare-star-ocean :) Still a little rough but I'll come back and clean it up some more.

Absolutely love it mate!!
Used to love psy trance, was a regular at Planet Zogg nights in Sheffield.
Loving all the noises going on...fits very nicely. Would love to listen to it without the vocals as I think it could still be a beast of a tune.
It's definitely got that progressive vibe to it, can almost picture myself dancin away to this, glo-sticks at the ready...

Oooh, I like that a lot. Wouldnt say it sounded Psytrancy though, its not overly trippy or abstract which for me is what defines the genre. This isn't a bad thing though, if you'd thrown in a psy kick and gone heavy on trippy effects you'd have ruined what is a brilliant minimal rolling trance track. :)

Cheers mate. Can send you a vocal-less version once it's done if you like? ;)

Wicked, glad you like the new additions I've made. :) You should definitely know better though, music is not here to be enjoyed!

Cheers, glad you like it. :D You're not the only person to tell me this really and I have been told it's more Progressive Trance than anything... I have no idea really lol. I seem to hear loads of things classed as Psy these days that really aren't trippy at all so it just seems a bit blurred to me.

- That'd be great!!
Definitely think it has a massive element of psy trance in it - the noises and effects floating through the track give it that feeling...though I do think more of a 'wobble' in the bass-line would make it more so...

Have you thought about making Psy inspired Freeform? I'm always on the lookout for trippy edged stuff for Smiling Corpse. */end plug*

Yeah, it already has been haha. We've had huge support from the rising stars of Finland. However some of the more Psy inspired stuff is coming from elsewhere. Qygen, Xombei and even my own stuff under my 'Wyrm' alias all has that heavy smell of Psy.

The only psytrance I like is the crazy full-power & brooding dark psy (mostly what Goa Gil plays now). The bad thing is, it's hard to find Dark Psy albums because I don't know hardly any artists :/

I'm gonna say I didn't enjoy it so much. Felt like it built and built thennnnn let me down. Then did it again and again. That's how I found it.
