DJ Basilisk delves deeper into psychedelic techno on Silicon Overmind 7, part of an ongoing series of mixes exploring the contours of the hypnotic and mechanistic underground from all directions. Clocking in at two and a half hours in length, this highly polished exercise in ritual machine music mainly draws from the hazy hinterlands of techno, with only around a dozen selections from the outer periphery of psychedelic trance culture. While the focus of this mix is mainly on the more minimalistic and cavernous end of the spectrum, the last third of the mix is dreamy and transcendent, providing a sense of catharsis after the long, cold journey through night.
