    Idk if this is still the case, but I pirated a shit load of psytrance with DC++ back around 2005-06. Might be worth checking there, or maybe soulseek. I can’t vouch for soulseek personally but a ton of friends love it. I find with more niche things like more obscure electronic music peer to peer beats the pants off torrents.

    Shout out to my first rave, caught Infected Mushroom in Montreal during the Classical Mushroom / BP Empire era. Been a fan of psytrance and a good uggadugga bass line ever since.

      The https://ektoplazm.com/ is still up, though with archive mode and a rate-limit. Please clone it. One day I’ll start a process that I’ll not regret, while I/you can.

      I have a puny 30GiB slice of it, and it’s the best thing that I have. All for free. Non-pirated. (the owner has reported the total space consumed is multiple a 1TB)

      Btw, Infected is making a gig in my town. And I’m struck with disbelief of the absurdity of it. Here? no way. Bust a move will be my vain. If I could inhale it I would.
