I had absolutely no idea what Goa was. Here's what AllMusic had to say, for others like me:

that article from allmusic is accurate until this statement "As a consequence, Goa had comparatively few DJs to recommend it worldwide..."
after that, it's all incorrect drivel. Goa/Psy STILL doesn't have any DJs respected outside the goa scene (which is pretty kick ass, if you ask me!) It is true, however, that Oakenfold once played goa... many many many years ago... you can still find one of his mixes on the Dragonfly web site (I think), from like '95. Anyway... I'm really into what's technically coined "psy trance" (though most everyone uses the terms interchangibly, myself included), which tends to be less eastern influenced. If Astral Projection is goa trance, then HuxFlux or (old/good) Infected Mushroom is psy trance... that list of artists on AllMusic is REALLY old. Thats some last century kind of stuff.. I tend to like it harder, faster, chunkier, and with good complexities.. here's some of my favorite artists: HuxFlux Digital Talk Grapes of Wrath Toxic Rinkadink Lemurians I'll end there... If you can find them (probably on SoulSeek), I'd suggest getting the Fear Psychosis compilation for the harder stuff, and the Fairy Tales comp for some of the lighter stuff. YUM. or, if you want I have about 40 gigs of psy.. feel free to msg me and maybe we can work something out =) |

Why the f--- is Paul Oakenfold on that list? I don't care if he spun a few goa tracks at one time in his life. I feel bad for anyone that saw his name and went to buy a goa CD of his cause most record stores only carry his trance stuff.
Ready, Steady, Go is about as far from Goa as you can get, lol
