Pure Trance: Goa Trance Ep.16

Описание: Artist: Jikooha
Track: Bay Hall Magic
Album: Golden Vibes 2
Release Date: 2007


Goa Trance is the real deal. It is my favorite sub-genre of Trance. Enough said, enough done.

Here's a great Goa Trance group from Japan. The album that this track was pulled from proves that not all Goa is dead. There is still a thriving community of peoples throughout the world searching for the old vibes. And that's what this project was about; the project is called Old is Gold, it's pretty self-explanatory what they are around for. Anyway, have a listen to Jikooha and tell me what you think! Later!

Enjoy and Later!

Goa Trance is essentially "dance-trance" music (it was referred to as "Trance Dance" in its formative years), the original goal being to assist the dancers in experiencing a collective state of bodily transcendence, similar to that of ancient shamanic dancing rituals, through hypnotic, pulsing melodies and rhythms. As such it has an energetic beat, almost always in common time (4/4) meaning 4 quarter note pulses per bar. Time is marked with kicks (bass drum beats) on each quarter-note pulse, a snare or clap on the second and fourth pulse of the bar, with an open hi-hat sound every second eighth note. A typical track will generally build up to a much more energetic movement in the second half then taper off fairly quickly toward the end. The BPM typically lies in the 130 - 150 range, although some tracks may have BPMs as low as 110 or as high as 160. Generally , Goa Tracks range from 8-12 minutes long.

Look out for the next episode,
