BooM! Records is an independant Dutch label, homebased in Groningen, The Netherlands. BooM! Records was founded in 1996 by Dj Matt BooM! and partner Remko, and has been at the forefront of psychedelic trance ever since. Committed to the original spirit and vibe of psychedelic trance, their releases have featured both well established artists from the trance scene as well as many talented newcomers who they have discovered during their travels around the world.
Tracks for release are selected on their dancefloor merits. The label sound is varied, but tends towards hard but melodic and uplifting tracks that make the dancefloor rock and the party people smile. An element of humour is another unmissable factor in many releases, partying is supposed to be fun after all...
Some of the many artists that have been featured on BooM! Records so far include : Principles of Flight, Fractal Glider, Rastaliens, Logic Bomb, Battle of the Future Buddhas, Chi Ad, Cosmoon, Quadra, Mindwarped, Synchro, Ubar Tmar, and a whole galaxy of other stars!

Our artists & members:
Live acts:
Principles Of Flight
The Principles of Flight Project was born with the will to redesign the approach of psytrance music. Greatly inspired by film scores and classical music, Principles of Flight perfectly merge emotive classical themes with smashing dancefloor beats. Their constant experimentation in sound design and track construction brings their music to another level. Their powerfull breaks allong with twisted psychedelic sounds and leads create unique atmosphere, perfectly fitted for night time dancers.
Fractal Glider
Fractal Glider is Paul McCosh from Melbourne, Australia. Paul began producing Psychedelic Trance in Melbourne in 1995, two years later he began the Fractal Glider project. Since then he has released two solo albums 'Parasite' & 'Digital Mandala' with Boom Records(Holland), and featured on over 20 compilations from various labels worldwide. He has played events & festivals around the globe including Japan, Portugal, Sweden, New Zealand, Switzerland, Holland, France & Belgium. By day, Paul works as a Post Production Sound Designer making television commercials in Melbourne. And while this adds to his audio experience, it often takes up precious time needed for writing & touring, but Paul is determined and is currently in the studio working hard on a new album due for release 2007.......
Rastaliens
Since about 13 years we are DJ´s. After 3 years with dj-ing, we realised, that the records fromother people were not enough for us. And look at this, since about 9 years we are producing our own psychedelic trance. We started in a small cellar with a little soundsystem. At the beginning we just used simple software-synthies and a small sequenzer-programm. Because of our limited possiblities, it was not easy for us to produce a good quality of sound...Hard work and a lot of enthusiasm caused a booking from some friends in Switzerland. They wanted us for a live-act. Jehaa, our first set, which we played with some quite old synthies, as like Roland 101 and Korg Trident. As you can understand, we were more than nervous. But we were more than happy, that the feedback of our first act was really great and amazing.. So, we decided to go ahead with our crazy music. The time and the more bookings opened us the chance to buy some new sound-machines. On a special day, we decided to send our first songs to some different labels around the world. We packed this CD´s together with all our positive vibrations and what happend: Yaniv, from Hadshot Haheizar released our first two songs. "FREAK BOOSTER" and "UNIDENTIFIED SPECIES". A big thank you to you, Yaniv! We guess, we do not have to explain you our feeling, as we hold our first vinyl in our hands. Unbelievable..... After playing on many parties around the globe, like Portugal, Netherlands, Mexico, Greece, USA, UK,etc. There was time for an album which was released also on Hadshot and more should follow on Boom! Rec.(which released also the 2nd album),Digital Psionics, Ketuh, Glowing Flame, and so on......

Watch out for this artist in the future!!.
DJ Lurk
Part man, part guinea pig, part lab experiment. dj, cynic, midget, wonkster and now compiler of cds (well, a cd) So he thought he'd better join the Institute of Self Promotion, that is myspazz.
DJ MolsHope
Infected by the psytrance virus at the year 2000, spinning tracks since 2004, under the name of Mol’sHope. Playing at several parties in Groningen for The Dreamfactory and since 2006 his name is also attached to BooM! Records. Since 2005, every now and then, he's involved in organizing parties. From helping friends to build up a party, till organizing a big New Years party and everything in between. Starting as a Full On DJ, nowadays he's slightly slipping into the Progressive. He thinks that every timezone has its own style of trance. There for, depending on the (night)time, he plays Full On sets, Morning sets or Progressive sets. But he doesn't want to label his sets as ‘Full On’ or ‘Progressive’. He tries to combine different kind of styles to take people on a nice tour of psychedelic adventures: get them into a psychedelic trance! Main target for him is to make people dance with a smile on their face and let them have a good time...
