Terranine in Psy
Terranine in Psy is a psychedelic progressive act from Aotearoa (New Zealand). Featuring live instrumentation and electronic wizardry, Terranine in Psy incorporates sounds from the celebrated psybient act Terra Nine and his progressive psytrance project, Sirius Music.
Terranine in Psy is Michael Westcot - on viola, keyboards, computer and other audio devices. The music features a synergy of bowed and plucked string sounds, mangled into mind bending psychedelia and poured in real time over a bottom end of progressive beats and basslines.
Terra Nine’s releases over the past 13 years include seven albums and numerous EPs, as well as tracks on myriad compilations, all featuring his distinctive mixture of live organic lushness. His music has also included collaborations and remixes by and for numerous international artists - including Braincell, Suduaya, Astropilot, OTT, Gaudi, Tripswitch, Kuba, Gabriel Le Mar, Kaya Project, Green Beats, Noosfaere, Oversoul Project (Adam Goodlet), Pete Ardron, Squazoid and Kick Bong to name just a few.
Terranine in Psy has toured the world over the past 10 years, performing dynamic all-live audio/visual shows that feature his mind-bending electric viola and keyboards through a multitude of twisted effects, with his creative partner, VJ Intelliki providing the perfect live visual accompaniment.
