From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Talpa is the pseudonym of Goran Juric, a Serbian Psychedelic trance artist. The first of his works appeared as single tracks on compilation albums, notably his tracks "Mandragor" and "Kalashari" which were featured on the "Vibraspirit 23" compilation released by Sundance Records in 2002, and "Talpania" on the "Sundaze" compilation, also released by Sundance Records in 2002.

[edit] History
Talpa first delved into music production in 1999. His first commercially available tracks were published in 2002 by the small Australian records company Sundance Records. It is believed that after the release of these tracks, Talpa reached an agreement with the record label for the production of his first album. The album was released in October 2004 entitled "The Art of Being Non". The album which contains some unique and incredible unlike most psytrance music released his name into the Psytrance scene where it received mixed reviews. Talpa then went on to perform live at Psytrance venues, where his melodic stylings were received with fervor.
[edit] Discography
His only album, The Art of Being Non, is a melodic psychedelic trance album, which in itself is out of norm for the psytrance scene. The album focuses on a much more euphoric feel than the majority of the artists in the scene. With deep, grooving, melodic basslines and fast paced melodies that harmonise with each other, the album is an effort that is quite rare for its genre. It features 10 tracks of varying themes and styles, where Talpa employs not only the modern feel of psytrance but also his own unique element that give some of his tracks a balkan feel (notably "First Ray of Light" and "Back to Dreaming").
His earlier tracks are featured on compilation albums.
