goa is the name of a sub-genre of trance that has roots all the way back to the province of goa in india. it is characterized by its use of a driving 4/4 beat (some goa is in 3/3), a trance-inducing melody(usually in an eastern or indian set of notes a.k.a. scale) that is performed by various synthesizers (not all of it is done with a roland tb-303, g-d, that would be boring as h-ll), and various effects like teleport zapping, blasts, and pitch bending cracks that help to create a mystical like state to a listener. lastly, goa is trance, not techno. duh. oh yeah, and psytrance is just a broken down more mechanical version of goa, if you were wondering.
artists include infected mushroom, dreamchild, astral projection, gms, sun project, etc.
