[The Official Psynews Welcome(d) Topic]

Hi ! I'm new to the forum. I already have a few posts, but until right now, I couldn't locate the welcome topic.

 

Just a few words about why I'm here. I came in touch with trance and electronic music in 2009/2010. I began to be fond of trance in 2011/2012. I explored then almost of the subgenres of trance (including psy). But finally, in 2013, I realized I was in love with Goa, and since that time I just can't get bored of it. That's my favorite music, and I'm almost married to the genre.

I'm pretty much a Newschool fan. I especially love sunny, melodic trance with loud bass and an ambient background.

I have no particular favorite projects or songs, but I have a crush on most newcomers : JIS, CoaGoa, Artifact303, Crossing Mind, Eleusyn, etc.

I don't really like nitzho trance, and I consider Khetzal's Corolle to be (for myself) the best Goa album.

 

I also like psy progressive that has melodies (morning prog, ambient prog, or songs with goa riffs), as well as psybient, and other non-psychedelic forms of trance that sounds "cheesy" (techno dream trance, nightcore, J-Trance, and in rare cases, uplifting).

 

But I can't stand mainstream trance, even in psy (Neelix, Skazi). I can't stand full-on too. I also am confused by darkpsy. I only trust Electrypnose in this area.

 

I came here because Psynews always improves my passion and knowledge for trance and ambient music. There are many interesting topics, and I wanted to follow them closer, and participate sometimes. And I hope to stay the longest time as possible.

 

Thank you.

[Filteria - Lost in the Wild]

With Sky Input, Filteria proves that he could use the solar power to make music.

With Daze of our Lives, he refined his style with a more poetic touch.

With this album, he added a final ingredient to his 604 mixture : mysteriousness.

 

When I listen to this, I don't hear Goa Trance. I hear absolute trance music.

 

Bravo.

[Music in dreams]

What kind of music do you hear in your dreams Radi ?

That must be incredible.

 

I also have heard of other people hearing music in their dreams among trance community.

Is it possible that Goa/Psy/Trance enters more deeply into the subconscious mind that other musical genres ?

The true question is : how far do psychedelic and trance music influence the mind and the dreams ?

It also may be possible that producers want the audience to be touched in their dreams, if we refer to a few song tracks, like Artifact 303 - Influence your dreams.

[No more PharaOm :(]

This is sad, because Oswald is a very creative artist, who explored a lot of the goa spectrum ( dark goa with Cursed Bloodline, nitzhogoa, classic goa ), and I won't easily forget Shelter 10 which was a rare experimental release full of happiness.

It is quite a loss.

 

But l wish the best to Oswald. Thank you so much, and good luck in your future/current projects ! You have so much potential ! Keep having fun and making good music !

 

 

( And i hope that one day you'll get into Goa again )

['...In Dub']

Asia 2001 in Dub, because his goagressive, hypnotic style would match IMO a downtempo release. Actually i'd like to have Asia 2001 remixed ambiently by some project such as Astropilot (with the same progressive vibe of Iriy for instance).

[To fall asleep while astral Goa music is playing .. [recommendations]]

This may be a weird recommandation for someone looking for sleep, but Toï Doï's album Technologic is a magical trip to Dreamland.
Except the track Nuage d'Encens with its crazy climax, the smooth rhythm and the whispering samples put you in a comfort state very quickly.

But it's not very "astral".
