Raja Ram - The Anthology
Review by Mo Draj
The Anthology by Raja Ram is a collection of some of the most iconic and influential tracks in the history of psytrance music. As a founding member of legendary groups like Shpongle and The Infinity Project, Raja Ram has been at the forefront of the global psychedelic scene for over three decades.
This album features 24 tracks that span his entire career, from early classics like "Ong Namo" and "Nuttah Buttah" to more recent hits like "The Stamen of the Shamen" and "All You Need is Love". The tracks are carefully curated to showcase the evolution of Raja Ram's sound over the years, from the Goa trance of the 90s to the more experimental and eclectic style he is known for today.
One of the standout tracks on the album is "Divine Moments of Truth", a collaboration with Simon Posford that has become a staple of the psytrance scene since its release in 1998. The track's hypnotic rhythms and trippy melodies perfectly capture the essence of the psychedelic experience, and it remains one of the most beloved tracks in the genre to this day.

About Raja Ram
Born 1941 in Melbourne. Raja Ram left Australia in the 50s to begin the hippie trail. He returned to study flute at the Melbourne conservatory, and then went to New York in 1965 to study jazz and improvisation. In the late 60s in London's Notting Hill Gate he formed Quintessence, a jazz-fusion Indian rock band that went on great success with 5 albums and over 400 live performances.
However in the early 70s due to personal reasons, he retired to become an envelope salesman. In the early 80s with the advent of synthesizers Raja Ram was inspired to return to performing. A trip to Goa in 88 coupled with the acid house summer of love in England revealed to him a new genre; the electronic world of psychedelic music. He worked for many years with Graham Wood under the name The Infinity Project, producing seminal tracks such as Stimuli . In 1994 Raja Ram had the brainwave to create TIP Records, which folded in 1998 after the collapse of their distributor. In 1999 he started the label TIP.World, which in 2009 was replaced by a new label under the original name TIP Records.
He began DJ'ing in '98 as this seemed a natural addition and progression to performing live. He is known for his work as Shpongle with Simon Posford, as the creator of 1200 Micrograms with Riktam and Bansi of GMS, and Chicago, and has had many collaborations with psy-trance artists globally. He is constantly touring, DJ'ing, performing live and recording in the studio, being one of the most in demand artists on the scene.

????We are raised from birth to believe things that cannot be proven or that are plainly not true. People will often brag of their honesty, when there is so much they have simply chosen to ignore or leave unexamined.The fact is, we are terrified of the truth."
