Psytrance Culture in Turkey

The Soulclipse Festival, which took place in 2006, played a major role in the formation of Psytrance culture in Turkey. This festival, which was attended by approximately 10,000 people, was only the first of many.

Later in 2010, Yaniv (U-Recken) founded “Tree Of Life” and he is responsible to one of today’s biggest psy festivals, which reflects well his unique & quality taste in music and concept. Tree of Life Festival series started with the collaboration of the Mind Manifest Project and Yaniv (U-Recken). Tree of Life Festival was taking place every year in a magical location called Karagöl Lake, near İzmir with thousands of visitors from all over the world.

With its high-quality level of production, this festival is definitely one of the better festivals out there on a global scale. Tree of Life is also organising a festival called “September Ritual” in Kastro Beach, right on the shores of the Black Sea with lush forest and a lake, only two hours from
Istanbul.

Both events are organized together by Tree of Life Festival & Mind Manifest Project – an organization company of Timuçin (Tmx Mind) with 15 years of experience and numerous outdoors; Back to Nature Festival, Shanti Mind, Elemental Evolution Festival to name a few. Timuçin (Tmx Mind) is also one of the most talented night
music DJs in Turkey today and Yaniv (U-Recken) takes psytrance to its right place as intelligent music which uses bass rhythm & melodies as a carrier
to the massage of light, love, and eternal freedom of thought.

The Mediterranean climate, tasty food, and warm hospitality of the locals make it a perfect place to visit during festival sessions every year!
