ACID BEATS

Explore psychedelia while grooving on the dancefloor.

Expand your knowledge,
consciousness and vibration.
Psychedelic beats.

by Burningmax

A few DJ sets where I drop acid beats and soundz or venture into trance territories.

Many of these sets start with a groove, then evolve into psychedelic dance trips.

Listen, download, share and enjoy. And dance. Massive speakers recommended, and some blinky lights too.
