Tachyon
Ivã Tachyon first contacted the psychedelic world in 1997, when he started to go to the first parties ever made in Portugal. His interest began through the visual arts, as his academic background was connected with the plastic arts. Iva’s musical track started around 1998, as a trance DJ, when a friend asked him to participate in a small party. With the help of most of his friends during 1999, he co-produced some big parties with names like Mick Chaos, Bamboo Forest and Infected Mushroom. As the years passed, his interest for the more soft ambiences grew and he started to improve his technique as a chillout DJ. In his sets, Tachyon tries to create an emotional and intense journey, using some psychedelic sounds, as well some world music, all mixed up in a very happy and relaxed way. The Muses Rapt, Aes Dana, Entheogenic and Zen Baboon are just some of the projects used in his sets. Tachyon is also the coordinator behind the chillout stage of Freedom Festival, in Portugal, and one of the organizers of MOONDANCE collab.
