This new movie tells about the amazing outdoor culture in South Africa, which is undeniable one of the hot spots for Psy Trance parties. An interview with producer Pamm Legg aka Tune Raider.
What is the idea of the film?
The idea came to me when I was having a conversation on the side of a dance floor about the South African Trance scene. That was like 5 years ago. Blood sweat and tears is what has taken to finish this project on my own, I am not a film maker I'm a DJ who happened to love parties. I had a dream to make a film that hopefully captured the beauty of our scene and inspire people to party with a purpose. The essence of Psy Trance is the freedom of expression, and in this country we have the opportunity to express our freedom. Through the research for this film I realised that because of the political freedom we experienced in South Africa we are able to have events such as these in the most amazing venues that aren't too far away. The film captures the growth of a dance scene, it pays homage to the people involved and hopefully educates the next party generation about conscious partying and that this is a scene and not just a party 'in the bush'.
What's up in the scene of South Africa? Whats special? Whats good, whats bad?

Having this immense amount of freedom and that freedom is being abused, sex drugs and trance music is the new motto and I think that there is just no respect for themselves or the space around them. I just hope that through this chaos that the dust will settle to some thing more conscious but I suppose that it's growing up will create that.
Where was the film produced?
Every where. No it has been produced in Cape Town. By myself Pamm and my partner Colin who owns Alien Safari.
Some funny story about the production of the film?
I suppose the funny side was the
filming the interviews, most people weren't used to talking in front of the
camera so had a little help before sitting for me, must say they all held there
own pretty well. Majority of the interviews was done at an Easter party so by
day three some tweaky shit went down.
What is the film about? What will people get to see?
