The Goa-Psy Thread

[Neo0tak0n]

For those interested in the goa or psy trance (i'm hoping there are some)...

Prometheus - Corridor of Mirrors is some smooth layered psy trance...best new material out there in my opinion.

As for goa...well not much out there except for Twist Dreams [Suntrip Records] and Pure Planet 2 [Kagdila Records]. Both are top notch

Whats everyone listening to?

[Tom Servo]

Not exactly psyTRANCE but -

Shpongle and Anthony Manning!

I've had a group called White Noise recommended to me, but I haven't looked them up yet.

As for goa I can only think of individual tracks from folk rather than complete albums. I've seen a goa compilation CD so it might be worth seeking that out if you're interested.

I've had a chat with raja of spongle offline while he was in london, he's darn smart - he hasn't been online much at the dna hyperdimensional forums for the last few months tho'.

Have you seen Zodiac: wheels inside wheels? 13 psytranceish songs blended together with a neat movie of the revolving heavens, you're taken through each constellation with a host of images for each set of stars. Recommend that for anyone.

Meh, i'm more of the Anthem Trance, or Happyhardcore person.

But I do like some Psytrance/Goa like, Infected Mushrooms, or Aphex Twin.

[Pickie]

Infect Mushroon, Astral Projection, Juno Reactor, Alien Project, and 1200 Micrograms

[Gasaraki]

oh ****, I love Goa, I know nothing about it, but whenver I've heard it I've liked it. So fa Alien Project and Juno Reactor are probably the only ones I can always recognize and like. I just wish I knew where to get the music, stuff is SO hard to find. PM some help please?

[Neo0tak0n]

^ i get most of my stuff from www.psyshop.com or www.saikosounds.com

or you could always check *plug warning, shameless plug warning* my website for dj sets www.goa-shoom.net :P

[Gasaraki]

Nice, thanks for that. Can you give me any recommendations? I have no idea where to start outside of what's been mentioned in this thread.

[Neo0tak0n]

well, if you like more of the goa style, then some new producers doing it are: Goasia, Lost Buddha, Khetzal, Afghin, Sneila, Filteria

while some of the older producers are/were: Hallucinogen, chi-a.d., man with no name, doof, asia 2001, space tribe, electric universe

If you prefer dark psy then some good produers are: Blisargon Demogorgon, Wizack Twizack, Double R.E.L., Entropy, Neuromotor, The Nommos

[Suki]

My Goa:
Aerospace, Bizzare Contact, Brain Damage, Cosmic Station, Cydonia, Galactica, Orbital Vision, Neelix, Man Made Man.

Hard to find psy :/

[Gasaraki]

thanks for that, I'll check em all out. Any particular compilation CD's you recommend?

[Neo0tak0n]

^I can list a ton

some older psy compilations:
New Generation on Organik records
Tribal Makers on Tribal Records
Wingmakers on Dragonfly records
Tweakers on Spun records

1200 Micrograms
There's a album on this computer downloaded yonks ago made by them, it's their promo stuff released for free online. I don't know where you can get it now but I still have some of the songs, if anyone be interested then drop me a pm and I'll send you some of them. Most of the songs aren't great, but there's a a couple of decent ones, the shiva/hashish one comes to mind...

Keep seeing juno reactor everywhere recently, I've never heard their music - any good?

Would something like Pharoah Sanders count as psy music, 'cause I sure as hell don't know how else to classify it - egyptian music with a shroomy feel - wobbly.

I find Juno Reactor overrated, most of their material is washed up from previous stuff.

ive got 1200 micrograms - 1200 micrograms...thats a classic psy cd in my opinion...

marijuana, lsd, ayahuasca, magic mushrooms, ecstasy...hard to pick my favorite!

(I'm refering to the tracks on the cd, btw):-"

That's the one! Funny, it says 'promo' on my version - I thought it was unreleased songs or something, but the song titles are exactly the same.

Hashish has got to be my favourite, lsd is good for the floyd chopper and hydraulic sounds. Might go back and listen to it now, can't remember what half of them sound like... I think dmt has a quote from terrence mckenna throw in iirc, or is that another track, i dunno.

Edit: I meant pharaoh sanders not pharoah sanders in the previous post... not the jazz fella.

[F Stop]

Not me. I'm more of a Tech/Deep House kinda guy.

But I respect you guys for listening to dance music nonetheless!
