Party Organiser // Dj // Percussionist // Producer Psysmael aka Ismash (name for the non psytrance music performance) is Ismaele Gonzato, coming from Switzerland, born in 1981 in Ticino, the italian part of Switzerland in the small but special village of Carona. Psysmael has begun playing music since he was child, he always has been interested in percussion and since his child age he was fascinated by all kind of instruments and music. He did 5 years of drumming and stayed 4 years in a jazz school and has played for 3 years in a reggae band as a drummer and song writer. The passion for electronic music began in 1991 when he went to the UK for three month to an artistic school where he discovered techno music and many other new musical tendencies. Some years later he discovered Drum’n Bass in Amsterdam and became a real fan of that kind of music. It is in the last years that he began to listen to more and more kind of different, electronic or not music. Actually Psysmael produces various styles of music, but basically he is more oriented on Electro, Techno, Drum’n Bass and especially Psy-Trance music as a Dj. From the year 1997 Ismaele started organising little parties in the nature with friends, in the years 2002, 2003 and 2004 he helped the Space Connection Crew organising the historical psy trance party in the Castle of Mesocco, in the year 2005 after some succesfull parties organised with friends from Carona, he founded with his friend Olmo the SKS Crew and made some of the best parties in the south of Switzerland, among others the Save the Freaks! party in 2006. In the year 2007 the SKS Crew changed into the Freak Time Production Collective who organised Save the Freaks! II edition with more then 1700 people coming, Cosmic Birthday and the upcoming Mystic Dance. Up till today Psysmael played in many parties all over Switzerland and was invited to play in Germany and Italy and is open to go anywere there are nice people who want to dance! Psysmael likes to explore the hard and energic side of the psychedelic music, playing cyberdelic full-on with hard bass lines, funny samples, acid lines, twisted fx who blows you away and a little of melody to keep the dancers with foots on the floor but send the head in the sky. Actually Ismaele Gonzato has finished the Audio Technician at CFMS, the Swiss Federal School, was working for the Swiss Radio of italian language and actually working as Audio Technician for the Swiss Radio of French Language, he is more oriented in his Dj project and also playing percussions with Live Acts or with other players, and of course is continuing organising and promoting parties.
