AQCD005 Penta: Portuguese Abduction
Well, it has finally happened: the Portuguese aliens have taken what was theirs for several years now – that is, Nikita Tselovalnikov, the producer of Penta, the psytrance project that has been seen live in 30 countries around the world. To commemorate this fact, AuraQuake Music is happily releasing “Portuguese Abduction”, the fourth album from Nikita, now an Azores Islands resident. Packed with next generation sounds, unexpected passages and his trademark sampling, this release is a wicked pentadelic circus carousel that takes you on a wild journey through night and day. From deep and dark “No More Evil” to the funky and unpredictable “BBQ” to the vocal and full-on “Neo Cheesy” this album is for everyone. Drawing from his experience in working at the Soviet nuclear laboratory, Nikita has made sure that every track will detonate properly on every dance floor, - huge and tiny. The mastering was provided by Tim Shuldt at the 4CN-Studios, so you can expect fresh and transparent sound all the way.

AQCD004 Penta: Horn Please
Endless travelling, constant noise of the parties, life in hotels, as well as a considerable dose of couch-surfing, has accumulated in Penta’s head into something that resembles the chaos of Indian street traffic. Horn Please – the message that is written on the back of the sub-continent’s trucks could never been more appropriate to describe the desire to bring order to trance musician’s life. This CD, executed in the style of a Mumbai taxi, is a dedication to the crazy party life in the form of a collection of morning and night psytrance tracks, sometimes written in headphones in different parts of the globe, and already successfully tested on the biggest dance floors of the planet. Faster BPMs than in his previous albums, as well as the use of the latest technologies, makes “Horn Please” one of Nikita’s most psychedelic works to date.

VA: Seismic Mood
After the release
of Penta's second album "Funraiser", our brand-new
psytrance label from Silicon Valley and Azores Islands is
presenting a compilation of new morning psychedelic sound
from San Francisco - “Seismic Mood”. It consists
of three new tracks from Penta, written on Azores Islands
in the middle of Atlantic Ocean, three tracks from Parus,
a project of Russian-born twin brothers Valik and Marik Tarasov,
two new tracks from Sector 7G, a creation of Alex Becker and
Scott McDonald, and a happy breakfast track from Aaron Peacock,
aka Ocelot.
This second release
from AuraQuake is setting the ground for the quest to explore
different ways of presenting the early morning experience,
although it can be enjoyed at any time of the day and night
as well. Each track is a combination of melodies and modern
sounds and is carefully chosen to create an atmosphere of
weird happiness and slight emotional distress with a hint
of silliness, so popular in earthshaken California parties
and hopefully elsewhere.
The CD is going
to be mastered by Lawrence aka Chromatone, insuring the professional
sound. Our distributor for this
and future releases is Arabesque
Distribution.

behind Penta, has gained world-wide recognition and has performed

and powerful riffs that are abundant in Penta's work to date
and reflects his current experiments with psychedelic storytelling
and sound design.
