Vaishiyas delivers a masterclass in the 'Hamburg sound' of progressive psytrance. The music is defined by an irresistible, rubbery bounce that feels more like a physical object than a sound wave. It avoids the dark, aggressive tropes of forest psy in favor of a clean, high-gloss aesthetic that emphasizes groove and rhythmic momentum above all else.
What truly sets Hannes Klitta apart is the playful character he injects into the machine. While the production is surgically precise, there is a sense of humor and 'bounciness' in the synth work that feels human. The tracks often feature liquid textures and metallic chirps that dance around a rock-solid kick drum, creating a sense of constant, forward-leaning motion.
Start with the album 'Flaxible' to hear the artist at his most influential. It captures that mid-2000s transition where trance became sleeker and more focused on the 'progressive' build, making it a perfect entry point for anyone who wants high energy without the cluttered chaos of traditional Goa trance.
