DJ Triptolemus), to unleash a sonic storm, immersing the crowd in a whirlwind of psychedelic vibrations and heart-thumping beats. The dancefloor became a vortex of energy as the audience surrendered to the cosmic journey. Finally, DJ Shivanki closed the Psytrance stage with an unforgettable set, her masterful mixing and powerful soundscapes captivating the crowd until the very last moment.
