jul 30 - win 10 tickets for the tachyon open air, aug 8
not much people participated so we enlarge the deadline for our competition
'til aug 5. i just want you to write some hellos for the partyinfo mailing,
smashing one-sentence-phrases. send them to sam@chaishop.com,
subject "phrase".
Taifun, das graphische Herz des Chaishop hat ihre Site aufgearbeitet und
sie dabei verdammt nochmal zum explodieren gebracht. Hervorragende, witzige
und professionelle Grafiken die sich jeder reinziehen
sollte der was mit Grafik zu tun hat oder nach Grafikern ausschau hält.
For more than a year now chaishop's main intention is to bring the worldwide
trance community closer together. This has been done by offering lots of info
about everything related to trance.
This was not very interactive.
What was missing was real time communication. The chance that people communicate
with each other. An easy way to become active and exchange ideas.
Technical problems hindered us to enable such communication: Java-Chat isn't
working well, IRC (Internet Relay Chat) is too complicated for a lot of users.
A mailinglist is too stressy for people who don't want to download 50 mails
a day just from the list. And a www-board is too expensive for others since
you have to be online all the time that you're reading and writing.
We now found a solution which I didn't find anywhere else in the net. We
merged an eMail-mailinglist to a www-based forum (www-board). We programmed
a bridge that transfers every mail written in the mailinglist to the www-board
and vice versa.
The advantage is that by this we can create a large audience since it's
not nessessary to be subscribed and receive all the mails written. Users
can browse online to read just the mail that is of interest to them. On
the other hand you still can subscribe
- when you're getting more active - to read and write mails offline. Of
course there are also some disadvantages, but isn't this the case with
everything which has advantages?!
We want chaishop's international trance forum to be a place for active
trance artists, organisers and partyfreaks...
to discuss about trance in all of it's varieties
to inspire each other
to find friends
to help each other
to start projects together
...and - of course - to have a good time!
We will do what we can to create good prerequisites:
there will be events like connecting parties to the forum by setting
up a terminal there (i.e. Voov, Shiva Moon, maybe Boom)
we will try to get as much artists and other active people in the forum
we have an open ear for all of your suggestions
This is a new start for us and maybe also new start for you. Please help
us to make this vision come true.
Help us to create this worldwide virtual meetingplace. It can be a motor
for international coming-together!
ps. note that the list is just starting and depends on you to start with
a high niveau.
pps. we don't see this forum as a competition to the famous 604@party.net
mailinglist since we have different targets.
ppps. many thanks to Mark Kessler (mark@chaishop.com)
for programming of the bridge and Fred Giteau (fred@chaishop.com)
for motivating me in starting this forum.
(short version)
chaishop's main intention was and is to bring the worldwide trance
community closer together
til now this was not very interactive. we offered lots of info but
the people had not much possibility to communicate with each other
we now programmed a unique basis for a worldwide trance forum: a metamorphosis
between an eMail mailinglist and a www-board
we would like a large audience of artists, organisers and partyfreaks
to discuss, inspire, meet, help and start projects
as prerequisites we organise events, gather active people and have
an open ear for suggestions
20 Leute haben Tickets vom Boom gewonnen indem sie abgespiralisierte
Sprüche gesandt haben. Zieht sie euch rein!
jul 17 - lots of new content
Dank unserer neuen Aremaster lauscher, chris, claude, psynergy und unserem
international Kontakt für Israel, haben wir ne Menge neuen Stoff im Chaischopp.
In trippy vision gibt's neue Flyer, ein
Open Air Game was ihr ausdrucken und spielen solltet (am besten auf Party

In god of wisdom haben wir dann noch Reviews
ohne Ende, Drogengeschichten, Party Fotos von der Total Eclipse in Venezuela.
Außerdem gibt's hier Info über die israelische Trance Demo die
gerade stattgefunden hat und ein KO-Sieg für die israelische Trance Szene
darstellt. Also: Es geht aufwärts.
jul 17 - chaishop live
Der Chaishop war mit seinem Stand nicht auf dem Lovefield und nicht auf
der Nation. Das hat Wetter und Technik-Gründe. Auf dem Lovefield ist
uns schon ein Rechner fratze gegangen und bei der Feuchtigkeit der letzten
Wochen wurde uns das zu teuer. Auf jeden Fall werden wir aber auf Voov, Shiva
Moon und Boom in Portugal sein. more
info.
jul 17 - new chaishop staff
Claude ist unser neuer Abgesandter
für die international parties Seite. Mark
hilft uns beim Perl-Programmieren. Später dazu mehr.
jun 21 - quirk, tobias & daniel sun, sunseer
Wir haben ne Menge neue Info über den Act Quirk
(Mark Allen + Tim
Healey) und wollen Euch dann noch Tobias
& Daniel Sun vorstellen, zwei brilliante DJ's aus Kleve. Neu ist außerdem
DJ Sunseer aus Schweden.
may 21 - Dj Jupiter, Dj Aze, Dj Natara, Dj Matt BooM! & Dj Onyx
inga bourin malt wolken,

noch nicht gesehen habe!
apr 26 - unreleased x-dream tracks on audio & video
Um Euch vernünftig in den Sommer zu schicken haben wir 3 neue unveröffentlichte
X-Dream Tracks organisiert und
ein Video!
apr 8 - israel trance mailinglist
Bom shankar from Israel !
We have created a new mailing list named "israel
trance mailinglist". This is the Internet mailing list for Israel
Goa Trance, or Psychedelic Trance. Party reviews, Opinions & Music staff
in Israel. All about The Israeli 604 seen.
Aerodance Sound System is the ONLY psychedelic trance promotion group in
Russia since 1994 including DJs, designers, stage performers etc.
Aerodance organized about 250 partys on which the best russian djs and also
more than 30 the leading musicians and djs from the different countries of
the world (Sid Shanty, Andre Serrao, Yaniv, Amrit, Eliad, Kushi, Pepe, Yonas,
Ulf ... from Australia, England, Germany, Holland, Israel, Finland, Sweden.....)
played.
Rays of light to the worldwide psychedelic community!
For us (Markus, Cynthia, Mat and me) the psychedelic chaishop got a very
time consuming job. Well, not exactly a job, 'cause a job gets payed. We're
now facing the problem that there are more and more things that can be done
but less and less time beneath the standard work to do them. The result: Great
ideas to make the chaishop a better base for communication amongst the worldwide
trance community can't be realized!
SO WE SEEK FOR YOUR HELP!
We need people who want to be part of the chaishop crew to gather info,
install this in the chaishop, work out ideas, etc...
This is work but also fun. You'll get to know a lot of people and will get
a lot of positive feedback. If you love trance you'll love it. This is our
energy source for one year now!
In detail we're thinking about giving the different area in the chaishop
(i.e. 'god of dancing', 'prophets of shiva', etc.) to different 'areamasters'.
Every areamaster should push his area by gathering thrilling international
articles (and putting them online), organising events or even applying special
features like discussion forums, chat or similar.
Also welcome would be a perl programmer to programm these and other special
features.
If this could be something for you or for a friend of yours, then please
mail me.
Note that you do not need html or other programming knowledge although this
would help.
chaishop got too much work for us
(Markus, Cynthia, Mat and me)
so great ideas to make the chaishop a better base
for the worldwide trance community can't be realized!
this is why WE SEEK FOR YOUR HELP!

selbst nicht glauben: 60 Seiten A4 heftigste Themen (Interviews, Berichte,
Fotos, Musik-Reviews), alles in Farbe, überzeugendes Design und dennoch
Trance. Der Chaishop hat macht jetzt mit PLUR gemeinsame Sache. So bringen
wir zumindest schon mal Asien und Europa zusammen. Zum Anfang gibt's für
Euch Artikel aus dem aktuellen PLUR #1: Astral
Projection Interview, Dogma
Diary und Rainbow 2000 Review
und Fotos. Verpaßt das nicht! (Übrigens: Ihr könnt PLUR
online kaufen!)
