Head Organizer

Judge Ming is the head organizer/psy mama of the Matrices and Vortices crew. After gaining prominence in the Finnish underground scene, she returned back to BC and discovered the many talents of local artists. With her international psytrance experience, it has inspired her to start a underground psytrance collective “Matrices and Vortices”; bringing together a bunch of talented friends with a common passion to build a festival made out of love, 6th Dimension festival.

She was also the mastermind behind Vancouver's monthly Algorythm: Bicycle Night, which showcases psytrance DJs of various styles. In 2021, she joined her favorite forest psy label, Vantara Vichitra Records. Her djing style can be described as deep, hypnotic soundscapes with energetic running basslines as well as sonic influences from Central Finland. So prepare for a small girl BIG sound.

Did you know that Félicette is the only feline to travel to outer space and come back safely to Earth? That's what this DJ aspires you to feel when you start listening to her spiritual hitech beats. Since 2003 she has been grooving to psytrance, but since listening to hitech in 2020 she challenged herself to finally start mixing the crazier rhythms

Filip became interested in electronic music at an early age. For a very long time trance was his favourite style of music, but after attending a couple of forest parties in Canada he fell in love with psychedelic trance and soon began spinning the decks. He mostly plays progressive, dark progressive or full-on psytrance.
