Psychedelic | Psytrance | Progressive Trance | Electronica
For a Toltec Warrior spontaneous play style would be the key to unfolding creations that can only depend on a natural ability to express music “as the audible quality of ‘now’. So all tracks on this album, Victim of Circumstances, are composed in real time.
Steven Freedom started out playing Royal Schools of Music classical violin at seven and guitar, keyboards and drums. Then studied Jazz with bass guitar and piano at the University of Cape Town and played in various bands before moving to Australia in 1996.
"I love anything to do with trance and electronica. I've played in bands in other genres but for me there is nothing more expressive, ever changing and so obviously a creative outlet than psychedelic trance.
I guess I try to create a bridge between progressive and psy a lot of the time. But this is more a natural flow - ideally what should be going on instrumentally to maintain constant interest and attention in the music.
Composing psytrance gives me great joy which I hope to share with you via Soundclick.com."

Why this name?
A Toltec Warrior is a person who attains mental mastery; control over the inner 'judge and victim' parasite that infests the mind; manifestation of the 'creative orientation' and taking responsibility for every experience, rather than orientating to a 'victim of circumstances'.
I was exploring these concepts at the time of creating this music.

Victim of Circumstance Album Cover
Toltec Warrior
Music
A dance tie between psychedelic trance and house.
This is an evolving 11 minute composition featuring Minimoog basslines with a home-made kick(ass) bass drums. Lots of LFO/Delay/Arp/and many synths combine to create the excitement that builds from the beginning right to the very end.
