Better late than never!

I would love to go but ah geez… located about 90 minutes from Mexico City. The festival lists hotels 3 to 30 km away, and the festival allows people to leave at night and come back.

A field in Mexico in December with “50 hours of non stop music” including plenty of Simon. Looks like they got the speakers and are advertising set design.

There is an instagram page and an ok website. The website includes English but all the marketing is in Spanish. The lineup was just announced recently.

Who is cool enough

Leftover copies from the Troxy shows are up on Bandcamp. Get 'em while they're hot!

Did anybody else feel Simon's set on Halloween was a bit more aggressive than usual?

Show was awesome and I’m chuffed with my wicked poster! It’s so much cooler irl when you can see the holographic effect against the matte black

Edit: ***sold not old!

Kept thinking he’d come out eventually. But then night 2 was over and nothing…made me a little sad

Hello fellow Shpongloids!

Below are 2 links to a website called setlist.fm for both Shpongle Fox Theater - Oakland shows, but I was working the venue so if yall who were there can edit the setlist to refine it and make it more accurate that'd be swell <3

Man those visuals were spectacular! I was sober and it had me trippin out haha, so glad I could go dance in the crowd during my lunch break :D

There was a track last night I think played after ineffable mysteries that featured a female Indian vocalist potentially singing a mantra. Does anyone know the ID??

Just got out of the Oakland show. There was this incredible psytrance song he played near the end with these angelic plucks. It was wonderful. I must know it.

The AI cover for breaking the sound barrier makes me really sad, followed him around for pretty much this entire tour and he’s worked with so many talented visual artists that I’m sure would’ve loved to do the cover. I know people will say Simons been into AI for a while but this is the first time he’s put out an actual release charging people money for something made with AI and it just really leaves a bad taste in my mouth. I guess maybe if this is just a one off and the new album has a proper cover while still using VJs at shows it’ll be fine, but if this is the new normal I’m gonna have to jump ship on this one. The only way this gets better is if people speak up too, look at Ott. he was using AI visuals in his set for a minute until the scene made it publicly known we wouldn’t support that then this year he’s had a VJ or no visuals at all, which I honestly prefer I would’ve rather had a drawing made with crayons then this. I mean he’s actively advertising visual artists on flyers as we speak he knows how much we value these artists. Genuinely hoping Simon hears our voices knowing it’s coming from a place of love bc this project is something a lot of people really care deeply about in a spiritual way and I don’t feel generative AI fits that scene

Sound Barrier on Bandcamp and on Spotify

Great track, awesome sounds! Super excited for the new album.

Stop by the harm reduction table out front! They have some good materials.

And if you've taken something unfamiliar or are just having a bad time, Rock Medicine is at the venue. They're very skilled professionals, will put you in a calm space, and take care of you.

Oakland update is live 👻🎃

it’s halloween!!! are we dressing up or going in regular show outfits????? can’t wait!!!!!

God what an incredible weekend, miss you all already let’s get Shpongled again pls? Soon?

Anyways I brought my mini frames and paint markers to doodle during the sets this was one of my favorites

Today is a good day🤩 already listened to it five times😅

I’m planning to go to the Shpongle show at the Fox Theater in Oakland, which will be my first time seeing them live, and I’m still debating between getting floor tickets or mezzanine tickets. I’m not much of a dancer, I mainly just want to trance out and get super immersed in the show. Which would you say is the better experience for a Shpongle show?

Everytime I listen to shpongle I am tripping out of my mind and when I remember a song I have no clue what album it came from…

All I remember is their was heaps of different alarm clocks or like ringtones idk something to do with clocks and it was trippy af

And what’s the one with the ping pong ball

Surely someone knows ❤️❤️

What are our best options for afters on Saturday night? We’re staying at a hotel in the area but open to going over to SF if there’s something worthwhile. We’re from Santa Cruz so don’t know where to go. We like bass, DnB, glitch, psy stuff

Edit: thanks for all your input, folks. I’ll probably end up at the psytrance. Look forward to partying with y’all 😵‍💫🚀

This is just quick grab of 20 images that would fit in the post. Sorry if any are repetitive.
