Psychedelic trance came to Ireland relatively late but has evolved a great deal over the last few years. The earliest psytrance parties in Ireland were organized by Moonemotions crew and after some of its members returned to their country of origin, the ones who remained in Ireland evolved into NEUTRONYX. The Neutronyx team is best known for organising The Life Festival, open raves, and electro parties around Dublin. The notorious Neutronyx UV decor and visual graphics are an essential part of every psytrance party., and also nominated into the top 10 Small Festivals in the European Festival Awards 2009.
