Capsula

Capsula is Yosi Shamay, born in 1978 and living in Kfar Saba, Israel.   Yosi began his music production at the age of 16 using simple trackers and guitar. Back then he produced mainly goa-trance. After upgrading his software and equipment he played around with different styles like breakbeat, drum & bass ,house and more but never released it.   After a lot of mind opening travels in the world and the trance culture (for about a year and a half: Australia, New Zealand, Thailand, India, most of Europe…) he decided to do a degree in chemistry. He studied Chemistry (B.A) and Biophysics in BGU University between 2002-2005 and in that time he started producing psychedelic chill out. His main influences come from gurus like: Terence & Dennis McKenna, Alan Watts, Carlos Castaneda, Jonathan Ott and Alexander Shulgin. Yosi samples lots of their inspiring speeches in his music.   He released several tracks on compilations in 2005 and his debut album 'Synthesis of Reality' was released on Ajana Records that same year. In 2006 he started his Master’s degree in Clinical Pharmacology, researching on drug delivery systems for cancer. At the same time he performed live around the globe and started the work on his second album.   His main interest is creating music which induces the exploration of the inner experience, the non verbal logic of dreams and the humoristic side of mystical experiences.
