  1. So I really like goa, especially oldschool, while my friends prefer techno,

    drum'n bass, hardbass and other pump. That leads to frequent discussions about

    whether and why the typical "thumpy" goa kickdrum is "lame".

     

    My friends always argue that the kick lacks bass, and that, if it were more heavy

    on the bass, it would sound a lot better. Since I'm not a producer and don't really

    know anyone who makes goa, I instinctively just argue that a very bass-heavy kick

    would crowd out the track too much, overshadowing all the other stuff in the track.

     

    So I wanted to ask someone who makes goa why the thumpy kick is so ubiquitous:

    Is it just a stylistic choice or is there more to it?

     

     

    P.S.: Why is goa so polarizing, with it being very unpopular, but people thatt like it being very into it?

  2. Thanks for your insight guys. We settled for Connection, due,

    in no small part, to the family atmosphere it's supposed to have,

    seeing as both ZNA and Connection have awesome locations and lineups.

     

    Already really pumped to expierience so much pure Goa :D

  3. I'd really like to go to both, seeing as they both seem

    amazing, but that's not really an option monetarily :/

     

    I think I can manage to go to either Connection/ZNA and

    Transylvaliens though, and that one seems pretty sweet aswell.

     

    Thanks for your insight :)

  4. I'm pretty new to goa festivals (haven't been to one yet)

    and I want to go to an oldschool goa focused festival this summer,

    but I can only go to one of the two, so I wanted to get the opinion of someone who has been to both.

     

    Thanks in advance :)
