3.

 

4.

 

5.

 

(i guess some will change due to new e-mantras album)

Out of the artists mentioned in this thread I like the styles of Artifact303, Goasia and Portamento, these styles are not too newschool for goa trance and Goasia´s style is very deep and driving. I always liked Goasia for making very melodious and emotional tracks and want to ask, which are the most recommended tracks of those 3 artists. Maybe someone can answer to me in a seperate thread or via pm.

 

The style of Goasia is so good, because he combines the good elements of Cosmosis and Chi-Ad. I noticed very clearly how he has some similar melodies than Chi-Ad in some tracks and synthpatches like Cosmosis.

Top 5? Are you insayan?

I excluded multiple tracks from same artist for the sake of variance, I also tried to look for several styles, it's really hard to put so many great tracks in such short list when they all offer different things, and weighting them all the same is simply apples to oranges. New school has a lot of average stuff, but there are a considerable amount of classics, just like in old school. It's interesting to note it's easier to forget the average stuff of old school. I want to put so many more here but I'll just stick to the five, even if I don't want to. I also know I forgot something during thinking of this and the list is subject to change at any point in time, though generally these are the upmost best new goa has offered thus far - along with many more.

Filteria - Operation Pulse, technically it may not be the best of filteria, but there are many, many reasons it's here. The most perfect intro since Maia on IFO? Why, yes. It is the representation of what Filteria is.

M-Run - Goat Man, speaking of technicalities :D



Merr0w - Pixelized Sight, edge of space is the limit of merr0ws potential. Citrus Circus may as well be here, but this track came first and I heavily feel like it was never appreciated the way it should have been, the power is very much alike, but many years earlier and with more interesting sounds - I also am a sucker for this type of rattling acid sound. I disliked the half-remix found on the Born Underwater album, because it didn't need one!


Sky Technology - Reactor of life, the climax melody is beyond comprehension and the smooth sound ices the cake. Technically it can fall short compared to many others, but it makes up for everything with the passion. :)

Goasia - Dancing With The Blue Spirit, this track in particular accentuates the masterful lovely organic goa sound with trance-like melodies perfectly. I literally feel the love the track was made with.

Edit: Man I hate this, I specifically added the music as links, but upon editing it decided to give me the middle finger...



1.Filteria-Galactic Rays
2.Filteria-Navigate
3.Filteria-Operation Pulse
4.Filteria-The Snuggling Snail
5.Filteria-Domestic Modulator

I like your style :D

Great. That's a very sophisticated selection. It really made me rethink my own selection, which I will post as soon as I have settled for it.

 

 

There's only one track I can name for sure, because to me it's an unparalleled acid thunderstorm. Play it on any given party and it's going to drive people mad.

Consider that one to be top 5. I will have to think about the rest.
