One of the pioneering future trance artists of the millennium, Astrix (aka Avi Shmailov), undoubtedly rules the global trance scene. He has established himself as top tier artist and it is clearly heard in his unique and melodic music style. Playing live and spinning his tunes around the world has helped him pave his way to the DJmag top 100 DJ list and currently sitting at No. 18, Astrix is one of the few artists in the scene who really makes big waves throughout electronic dance music and gaining universal recognition.
His live and DJ Sets in high profile gigs including Skol beats (Brazil), Brixton Academy and South West 4 (UK), Gathering (Japan), Pacha and Sessions (United States) and Love Parade in Israel, which have seen him play to over 200,000 people at once, taking them into full-on journeys of the most uplifting echelons of the future trance world, with a heavy focus on the feelings invoked by the more traditional strains of trance music while never losing site of the groovy element. He cites the likes of Royksopp, Coldpaly, Linkin Park, and Chemical Brothers as inspirations for the non-trance elements in his music, and it’s this combination of euphoria and funk, along with his faultless, crystal-clear production technique, that sits him head and shoulders above most producers - psy or otherwise.
Astrix stands out amongst many because what he makes is by no means formulaic dancefloor fodder. It’s clear listening to his music that he is more of
a musician and a rare talent indeed.

Pick up either of his albums, both are a cut above the vast majority of full-on psy out there. Great releases..

First one is a classic, second is easily forgettable and pretty much a pile of shit.

Haha, I agree that Eye to Eye is the superier of the two but I wouldn't go that far. Artcore has some good tracks - On Fire, Poison and a couple of others I can't recall now were decent.
