Idea create webradio dedicated to night time psychedelic trance came somewhere in Spring 2005. Triplag went online 15th of July 2005. It was just a simple 4 pages website with playlist for released CDs and tracklist for DJ sets. At start it was mainly my own mixes and I had to scout DJ sets and producers for the new material. I think it was for the first time that website & webradio for darker sounds of psytrance appears online and was actively seeking DJ sets and producer´s tracks. .Some funny moments when few people did not understand what is it I´m asking for hehehehee. Two months later Triplag opened a forum and community has started.

Great contacts were established and good friendship was made with PsyKommunity from Venezuela, D-A-R-K Records from Canada and PsyTech team from Bulgaria. We had quite a few live broadcast when everyone connected live from their house and play live-act or DJ set...chatting in Triplag chat.... I think longest live broadcast was for 34 hours... Lots of on line fun… hehehe. Among others we had: Neo Vox, DarkOhm, Faxi Nadu, Somarobotics, Gain Reduction, Kiriyama, Vegetal, Hagenith etc... all the history here : http://triplag.com/4room/viewforum.php?f=1

At first we had only 10 and then 20 listeners even then few record label understood importance of new promotional channel and put Triplag on the promo shipping list. At some point 20 listeners was not enough. Triplag was always full. Some people were connected for days – just because they did not want to lose a slot if they disconnect! In Spring 2007 help came from IPRadio.ru - it was just the right time! They donated a huge relay server for Triplag for 1024 listeners! Deep respect and thank you to Nikita who runs IPRadio.ru

If 2005- 2006 was a webradio years then 2006/2007 are record label years. Triplag is fast growing community of artists and it is not surprisingly that at some point we decided to make a promo releases. From end of 2006 and begging 2007 we released 6 free promo net CDs (download in .wav / mastered format: www.triplag.com/music/ )-2 of them are made in partnership with Nocturnal Wizardz and Babaganuosha webradio.

It was like a snowball - once you start it is hard to stop and it gets bigger and bigger. Finally giving birth to Triplag Music record label in June 2007 With our first V.A. CD Keep The Faith! Released shortly in Sep 2007.

Our next compilation V.A. Dark Love will hit stores on 13 November 2007 and before the end of the year it will be our most significant release of 3rd album from a grand master of the psytrance scene - CPC. As we say on the radio - stay tuned :)
