Quantum State (Hungary)
The Quantum State psytrance project was formed in 1999, one month before the Solipse festival. In the begining they produced mainly goatrance with arabic melodies. One and a half year later they turned into the hard and dark psychedelic trance and started to produce more groove orientated brainwashing tracks. They built up a very powerful dark fullon live set and started to release tracks by the biggest Hungarian electronical music magazin [www.freee.hu]. Later they contracted to BooM! Records in Groningen and had releases in BooM! compillations and released the album "Subatomic Travellers" which contained dark and melodic fullon for the dancefloor. They have releases by BooM! Records, [NL] Sundance records [Aus] and Alkaloid records [Aus]. Their music is very unique; some kind of dark fullon. Their tracks have dark atmosphere but has a lot of melodic themes and guitars. First of all we should take Quantum State as a real live act, because their strongest point is the live performance by using live guitar and live synthetisers.
