I love goa-trance

Hi people.

Here's a list of old-school goa albums that you should find. You need to understand the roots of psy trance, and experience the beauty of this music (goa). It is probably the best form of music ever (only idm & ambient genres come close imo).

Unfortunately, this style of music is basically dead (except for suntrip records), and many of these are out of print and very hard to find, but you can probably find all on soulseek or bittorrent sites. If it is still possible to buy it, I will include a link to a place where it can be found.

I'm also going to add a link to one of the songs, to make you more interested in it, because I know most people just skim past these types of lists without a second thought.

Anyways, I give all of these a 9/10 or 10/10 score. All come very close to "perfect".

Astral Projection - Trust in Trance
buy here song

This one is very well known and popular for good reason. Every song is good and a few of them (People Can Fly, Kabalah, Black and White) are perfect. Very beautiful and uplifting sounding.

Battle of the Future Buddhas - Twin Sharkfins
song

This one is very dark, very psychedelic, and very fast.

Chi-A.D. - Infinitism
buy here song

This is one of my favorites. Eye am the I, Celestial and Purity are awesome songs. The Flame is a masterpiece. Every trance fan should have this

Hallucinogen - Twisted
buy here song

This is the one that got me interested in psy-trance and it is still one of my favorites. It was one of the very first goa trance albums created.

Sandman - Witchcraft
buy here song

These guys have a very unique sound. It sounds like a cross between goa trance, industrial and techno. It's also very dark sounding.

Pleiadians - I.F.O.
song

Wow, I love this! It is very complex, dense sounding music and it reminds me of aliens.

Etnica - Alien Protein
buy here song

Same people as Pleiadians but very different sound.

Doof - Let's Turn On
song

Lot's of acid sounds. Very fun.

X-Dream - We Created Our Own Happiness

Now, now...let's not assume that just because this is a psy thread that we're uneducated on the topic of Goa trance eh?

There's an all old school goa party happening down here in a few months, can't wait!

P.S <3 Pleadians, and they are Etnica plus a few others. I think there was like five cats creating the goodness there...

Please email me at [email protected] if you would like a flyer emailed to you and if this is not the place to post this I appologise to the moderator and could it be posted in the right spot. Thank you.
 
I went to my first psytrance party last weekend. It was a 3 day campout in Wisconsin, USA. I can't say enough about the quality of the vibe there. Many people were there for the music, but many others were there to spend time with friends in a totally relaxed atmosphere.

The chilled, downtempo stage was a bit more my speed than the harder, higher BPM stage. Wherever I went though, I had a blast.

I'll be attending another one of these campouts soon.
 
holy shit someone mentioned trimada! glad people like that album, if only it sold a bit more :(


im hanging out for the new boske beats CD with a new X-DREAM track. luuuuush

one of the things i love about the psytrance scene anywhere i've been or gone is the very accepting, laid back nature of the crowd.

who was on the bill? what did you like (and dislike)?

The headliners were Dragon, Mubali, and The Great Mundane. There were also many other quality regional dj's. I liked the downtempo, dubby stuff the best as well as the IDM stuff with heavy basslines. A duo from the east coast played at the event, Aligning Minds was their name. They played the best set of the weekend IMO.
 
Please tell me you did acid and experienced a psytrance party to its fullest. :P
 
Seeing Shift, Phyx, Twisted System, Pitch Hikers, Slug, Tom COSM, Andromeda, Chromosome and a bunch of locals this weekend. Going to be cold..brrrrr.

You coming, Swilow?

Dragon taught my housemate how to spin.

Mubali is such a badass fun dj. I love the small psyscene in America, such passionate kick ass people.
 
Saw Pitch Hickers, Twisted System and a bit of Phyx, Shift and Chromosome about a week ago. Of the lot, Pitch Hikers took the cake for the night-time gear, very varied and uplifiting without being cheesy. The rest of the night-time Saffa stuff I didn't really like. It was dark and creepy, and while I like dark/creepy psy...I like it to be pushed to extremes. Baphomet Engine, Kindzadza etc...

The Saffa stuff was just similar melodies, and really banging and driving. I didn't find that much depth in it...

Then again, I was having a difficult trip (smoked too much pot and didn't wait long enough for some meth to wear off..so 'twas my own fault)..and I missed Andromeda's set because of it. Fucking spewing about that. Chromosome was fucking lush too!
 
SA night time stuff is like the melodeath to Eastern Europe's brutal death metal. :P

Did The Skragg play a DJ set during the Twisted System stuff? I saw him in March and he blew me away.
