I just spent the better part of a week nestled in the mountains in Umbria with limited internet, surrounded by like minded creative people, learning and sharing ideas and watching some of the best artists working away. Sonic Summit 2026 was a resounding success and I can't wait to get back to the studio and write music with all I learnt!
A massive thanks to all the teachers, @oxyfluxmusic@arjuna_parvati@petran_parvati for sharing your vast knowledge and giving us a deep dive into your workflow, and to @dj_giuseppe_parvatirecords for looking after all of us (along with @_freeyarose and Sixten)
And to all my new friends, I can't wait to see what amazing music you write and hope to catch up om a dance floor soon! π₯³ππ€
Smile! You're on camera!
Candid handover moments with @thelios_psy at My Aeon in Melbourne. A killer night of psytrance by @replicant.records π£π₯

TBT the @yatrafestival teaser party near Sydney in January this year. What a vibe! It was so cool seeing crews from Australia and New Zealand uniting to put together this amazing experience in the bush. I had the best time there connecting with so many local legends over the weekend and then got the chance to share the @protonedmusic sound at a peak slot! Seriously, check out that amazing stage!!!
Massive thanks to @jatayu_yatra_records and the @our_secret_festival for making this happen.

@magiclantern__ on VJ duties doing a killer job π₯³
The last 3 months have been some of the most hectic but amazing of my life so far!!
11 sets, 5 countries and 12 flights π π₯³
It's been an absolute privilege to share the stage with some of my favourite artists and more importantly, my closest friends across so many amazing events. I will cherish this experience for the rest of my life ππ«Ά
A massive thanks to everyone who made it possible, and to each and every beautiful smiling face I encountered from the DJ booth π₯°
As I go into a much needed recharge period and hit the studio, this amazing whirlwind tour will give me all the inspiration I need to come back with some bangers for the summer and beyond! π

Artist Spotlight: π₯ Dynamite π₯ @dynamite_protoned
Souvik (Dynamite) is rapidly making himself known in the global psytrance scene, known for his passion, energy and deep commitment to psychedelic culture.
With 10 years of DJing under his belt and a gig list spanning Mexico, Japan, Europe and New Zealand, his obsession with finding the grooviest beats and chunkiest drops have garnered a following worldwide.
Based between London and New Zealand, Dynamite is signed as an artist and Label Manager to Protoned Music. He is also one of the driving forces shaping the scene in the UK, helping run some of the leading underground events and festivals there.
Balancing artistry with event production, while still keeping to his roots deeply in the underground, Dynamite stands as a new generation psytrance architect dedicated to evolving the global scene while empowering the artists within it
Personal Note: If I had to condense Dynamite into two words it would be: good vibes. This translates across everything he does and especially when it comes to music! I am really looking forward to going b2b with him and showcasing what Protoned Music is all about, expect funky bangers and groovy basslines galore!! π₯π₯π₯
