Fullon and nothing sounds off in Denmark

Despite being a relatively small country that consists of only 5.5 million people, Denmark has played a vital role in the development of trance on an international scale. Spawning some of the early acts like The Overlords, Koxbox, Psychopod/Saiko-Pod, Jean Borell, Elysium, Orichalcum and Bypass Unit/Colorbox, Denmark continues even today to retain its rank as a leading contributor to the scene.

Undoubtedly, over the last few years, fullon has been the most popular kind of Psychedelic Trance at Danish parties. Classic acts like Koxbox and Orion and, more contemporarily, Genetic Spin, are actively engaged with producing this specific variation of Trans. If Virus Tekk Records – founded in 2006 – is anything to go by, it is clear that new artists will be forthcoming.

The last one or two years has seen a significant rise in the number of party organizers. Parties now happen on a weekly basis – with a great deal of outdoor parties in the summertime. But from all the wondrous choices offered forth during the more temperate seasons, the most compelling would have to be the beach parties at Moesgaard. Here, uncompromising music, and a highly underground atmosphere collude with the beach milieu to create a musical realm all its own.

If you're planning on visiting Denmark and attending a party, the website electrobeat.dk is, at present, the most extensive – relying on an informative Danish community, wherein most parties are posted (apart, of course, from the usual battery of secret, underground ones). Another site to consider is trancetunnel.dk – their area of focus, however, is mostly limited to Copenhagen and that which is in close proximity to the centre.
