Shakti: Kids of the ’80s
Event | March 5, 2009
Proud to bring another legendary trance act to Toronto, the Shakti Collective presents:
Kids of the ‘80s
TICON Live (Digital Structures, Sweden)

Filip Mårdberg and Fredrik Gilenholt form one of the world’s most successful and electrifying live shows in the progressive/psychedelic trance scene. With a deep background in the techno scene they started playing around with their computer in 1995 and this step brought them along many paths they hadn’t dreamed of. Along the way their amateur dabblings became the acclaimed production standards we hear today, with an exquisite feeling for sounds and percussion.
Their unique style walks the thin line between trance and psytrance with crossover excursions on both sides. Their music varies from the floorfilling to the hipswinging funky but they all emit the Ticon sound and the message to be happy and to be loosin it to the music.
With acclaimed releases Rewind (2001), Aero (2003), Zero Six After (2005) and hit tracks like U Make Me Wanna Drink more, Ticon is preparing their 4th full album. Get prepared for the enthralling sounds of Ticon as they make their debut performance in Toronto!
Saturday June 2nd, 10pm-?
Location TBA

Hmm, i love supporting the psy scene – especially since record sales having been dropping for the past 5 years – but isnt $25 in advance a bit too much?
It’s not to much when there not out there for the profit. There out there to give you an experience you can truly appreciate.
I realize $25 is more than other parties we have thrown but just to put some things into consideration: Ticon is the biggest act we have brought and their fee reflects that, also take into consideration that there is two guys and the cost of airfare. In addition we are having two live acts at this party and bringing in deco and artists from Montreal. We tend to break even for most things so the price is reflective of the extra cost and nothing else. That said Ticon will not disappoint and you will all come out feeling it was well worth it. See you there.
