What is psychedelic goa trance?

Psychedelic goa trance, also known simply as goa trance, is a subgenre of electronic dance music that originated in Goa, India, in the late 1980s. It is characterized by its repetitive 4/4 time signature, fast tempo (typically between 140 and 160 beats per minute), and heavy use of synthesized sounds, often with an Eastern or Indian influence. Goa trance tracks typically have long intros and outros, and they often build to a climax before abruptly ending.

Goa trance is closely associated with the psychedelic trance scene, and it is often played at trance parties and festivals around the world. It is also popular among fans of other electronic dance music genres, such as techno and house.

Some of the most well-known goa trance artists include:

* Infected Mushroom

* Astrix

* Liquid Soul

* Vini Vici

* Ace Ventura

* Psykovsky

* Skazi

* Zuvuya

* Tristan

* Oforia

Goa trance has been around for over 30 years, and it continues to be a popular genre among electronic dance music fans around the world.
