Hi,

Any goa freaks here on TF who could tell me about psytrance parties in Koh Phangan or anywhere else in Thailand ??

I did a lot of parties all around the world but still not in Thailand.

Sounds like a dream to dance at 6 AM on a thai beach.

Will come soon to discover the free undergound electronic music thai scene.

Thanks for informations about goa parties, clubs, bars, recod shops, labels,...

P.L.U.R.

Hellooo,

I am a big psy fan and have been attending parties for more than 19 years now. I'll be in Thailand from around Apr 5 2013 to Apr 9 2013. Can anyone pls help with some parties/festivals there? This would be my first time; so also can you let me know any other info, like the scene there(hear thaiiland is pretty hard on drugs, but these islands are chill). Also any chill out places, clubs etc.... Would be of great help, friends

Yes it's still played a lot although there has been an extensive vaccination programme to try and eradicate it and a special hospital has been set up to cure any sufferers.

Koh Pha Ngan will still play it a lot, especially at the full moon parties. Thankfully the half and black moons have moved away from it and play better music now but Haad Riin beach will still be full of the same sound as has reverberated around Goa and Thailand for too many years.

As to the islands being 'chill', well they can be if you're subtle but the FMP is not known for subtlety. Plenty of incidents where a friendly Thai will sell you some weed or something and 20 yards up the beach his plain clothes policeman cousin will arrest you; next step big bribe if you can afford it or jail.

Saying that, the Mountain Bar (end of Haad Riin) is renowned for mushroom shakes and the aforementioned black and half moon parties DO tend to be more laid back, but as I said, play better music than psy trance.

If you're staying at out the way bungalows, there's a good chance your hosts will get you some weed; but again the rule is be subtle - don't stroll along beach with a blunt in your mouth.
