your defanition of psy/goa

ok, i dont really have a clear picture of what psy/goa really is, since i havent listened to it much.

all i've heard (now, correct me if i'm wrong) is that infected mushroom is supposed to be a really good example of psy/goa stuff...

right now, i'm downloading some infected mushroom trax off kazaa, and imo, it just sounds like acid trance, just not as bangin as what i'm used to. it seems like they tone down the beat, and their focus is on the acid....

(ok, that probably sounded wierd to u. but i spin hard acid trance. stuff like Warmduscher- Hardcore will never die (derb mix), and Kai Tracid- Trance and Acid. both of which have really hard, strong bass beats. what i'm hearing from infected mushroom has weaker beats, but very powerful, trippy acid lines)

also, this relates to those threads about music progression.
it seems as if psy/goa is really more of an offshoot of acid trance.

what do u think?

Try downloading some astral projection stuff. Very wicked.
Also Man With No Name tracks. I suggest you use Soulseek intead of Kazaa for fiinding trance tracks.

I listen to a lot of acid & hardtrance myself so u'll prolly like the goa/psytrance-traxx i like! :crazy:

Here's some psytraxx that will blow ur mind:


chi ad - biocandy
miranda - gnocchi
miranda - gnocchi (remix)
mystica - ashes to ashes
hallucinogen - space
hallucinogen - gamma goblin
astral projection - mahadeva
infected mushroom - babykiller
holy men - the last universe (live mix)

Take a listen to the Astral Projection set on the Liveset page... that's a pretty decent psytrance/goa mix...

I find goa/psy tends to be less melodic that your "normal" trance with alot more FX. It seems to have very few key changes also, which adds to it's "hypnotic" effect...
