Obviously it's not. What the hell you want me to do about it?

goa is absolutely far from dead...i lived in monterrey mexico for about 4 years and the scene is absolutely EXPLOSIVE...in 2004 and 5 we had GMS/Eskimo/Astrix/Infected Mushroom all playing at the same festival twice in one year and there are parties nearly every week exclusively psytrance. and none of that full-on bullocks, progressive and classic goa.

that's a pretty cool release, cheers for the heads up chris

goa trance is dead.

There, I said it. So whenever it DOES die, you can quote me as the first one to say it.

well seems like people taking the "dead" too literally.
whenever there is a thread about a genre being "dead" some people counter with "it's not! i heard someone play --- somewhere at some point!"

just because goa is played at a few places doesn't mean it's "alive" but it doesn't mean it's "dead" either.

i think when you read "dead" you should read "not common anymore" because that's what goa is compared to other genres of trance music...

So GMS/Eskimo/Astrix/Infected Mushroom play classic goa? Great news.

It was me who said Goa trance is dead. And judging by this absolute shit toon I'm convinced I was right.

But the thing is, it is common. I could go out and listen to GOA almost every week.
