Gridlord Gidra


Gidra is one of the 3 headed demons adopted by Thomas who is one of the first Goan trance music composers in the trance music scene dominated mainly by foreign artist.
Gidra is the Anti-Logical Amalgamation of 3 heads. Self-classified as ADM ,the Core incorporates the Leviathan Engine consisting of various SOTA hardware modules , synthesizers and samplers. After featuring on various compilations since 2006 all 3 heads are in perfect equilibrium to formulate a 9 track album scheduled to release in 2013.
All audio is structured on a mutated Gridline in an uncontrolled environment, so what comes out of the process is relatively unknown. Self- Classified as Alien Dance music, the core incorporates the Leviathan Engine which consists of Analogue modules, various hardware samplers, drum machines and circuit bent synthesizers.
Having various releases in his name and under the watchful eye of Giuseppe, he was officially signed in 2007 at the Danish hyper trance label Parvati Records on V.A Psy Stories 3.
In 2009 Thomas compiled his first cd, V.A Shanti Jatra in remembrance for the contributions of Rodney, a dear friend and organizer of the same title. Upon gaining some confidence from peers, Thomas has now decided to revive Acidance records that have been dormant since many years, the main focus has always been to do something for our scene and as such he will compile a cd featuring a broad range of musicians yet well within the psychedelic context.
Apart from this he is the owner and founder of  Grade Python Music.
