Even though I am trying to stay low these days with the new baby boy Lucas, I am going to play a surprise Penta performance in Oakland on New Years Eve. I think I can squeeze in some surprise tracks, even if the local audience has heard me a million times. More importantly, we are going to party, just like we are supposed to on New Year's Eve. I don't know yet where I am going to be at midnight, but I am taking a taxi to the party and so should you!

Happy Holidays!

Official All Shots Double Release Party Facebook Page

Dear Friends, We invite you to celebrate the release of Penta's sixth psytrance album "All Shots Double" at a cozy San Francisco spot which has yet to see a trance party. Project One (which some of you have been to at the Electro Swing fiesta in May) features a great sound system, comfortable couches, inventive soju cocktails and an art gallery.

Here we go. I have recorded this Penta live set on my trusty Edirol Recorder through some spaceship-looking console with many blinking lights that was on the stage. Enjoy, Download for free, Spread the word. WARNING! - A 7th album spoiler inside.

I have watched a lot of movies in the past years, and I hope you can see why. Whenever there is a chase sequence or a suspense scene, I rarely understand what is going on the screen as I am directing all my attention to the film score. In this sixth album, I have tried to use a lot of these cinematic sounds especially when it came to intros and breakdowns. Penta music always worked better with the movie flavor added to it, and this time I wanted to take this approach further. All Shots Double was meant to work great on any type of dance floor, so the majority of tracks are of full-on nature. However, there is a fair dose of dark psy here as well. Whatever you choose to do, buy the album or download music for free, I want you to enjoy the show! Coming to the AuraQuake theater near you this summer.

This weekend is promising to be quite eventful for me. On Friday I am going to Southern California for the first time in several years to present my new album (information coming soon). On Sunday I am back in San Francisco for Howeird Street Faire, one of my favorite parties. I am playing at the Vulcan stage around 5 pm. Hope to see you there! - Nikita
