About Us

Situated at the very heart of the vibrant Cape Town scene, Psymedia has grown from a passion project into the foremost guide to the global psychedelic trance music community, the South African festival scene, and the burgeoning world of psychedelic culture.

Our Origins

Psymedia was birthed amidst the iconic Table Mountain’s shadow, deeply rooted in Cape Town’s cultural milieu. Our foundation is a testament to the city’s rich tapestry of sounds, colors, and energies. We’ve always believed that Cape Town is not just a place; it’s a feeling, an experience, and most importantly, an energy that we channel into our mission.

Our Mission

Our goal is simple: to bring together enthusiasts, artists, dreamers, and doers under a shared canopy of psychedelic appreciation. We aim to be the bridge between the niche and the now, ensuring that the psychedelic ethos remains alive, vibrant, and continually evolving.

We provide insights, reviews, artist interviews, and much more, ensuring that you’re always in tune with the latest trends and tracks.

South African Festival Scene

South Africa’s festival scene is like no other: a blend of scenic beauty, energetic dancefloors, and a collective consciousness that seeks to elevate the spirit. We’ve been privileged to witness and be a part of iconic festivals, sharing firsthand experiences, reviews, and sneak peeks into the magic that awaits.

Psychedelic Culture

Beyond the music, we dive into the culture that makes the psychedelic community so unique. Art, fashion, philosophy, and more—all converge here. From visionary artists creating otherworldly landscapes to the age-old practices of indigenous tribes using psychedelics for spiritual awakening, we journey into the intricate web that ties these threads together.
