There are some really good goa trance tracks here! While the audio quality isn't the best (Ethereal Entity was the most noticeable), the group at UGR has provided us with some real rippers. All the tracks are from 1999 and while the sound palette is...

Aw man I had high hopes for this release, but it never reached that next level. Decent full-on that seemed content to stay mired in generic lane. There wasn't one track that stood out or made an impression. It's not terrible It just...is. Which is a...

Quality progressive psytrance or psy-prog? Whichever it is detailed and powerful. Well done.

The first half of this comp was pretty good with a few great tracks, but it really took a turn for awesome around the Psilocybian track Wizard of Odd. From then on it was pumping and powerful psytrance with an absolute stormer of a remix...

I recall listening to this when it came out back in 2008 and giving a throaty meh, but man it hit me different in 2024. Bouncy rhythms and stacked melodies keep it enjoyable. He brings a chunky style that's truly psychedelic stuff with some sprinkles...

Fantastic compilation! Track after track of acidic goodness. I get the Etnica love, I do, but for me it's not even the best track here.
Hypnoxock's Magma absolutely destroys and then that is followed up by Goad's ... See full review |

All out acidic bombast from the Qube. See what he does is hooks you with the groovy bass line and then gives you an acid shotgun blast to the face. Man, they don't make 'em like this no more. This is a great album that should be played in a...

Meh. This is a very average album that is tough to get through. Which is a shame because when the source material isn't that strong (and this material isn't the best NIN has to offer) a remix should absolutely blow the original out of the water. This...

Jerome has been quite prolific and willing to drive goa down roads that aren't the safe, paved kind. Like many goa artists his early albums (At the Mountains of Madness, Weird Tales, and Non-Euclidian Geometry) were exactly what you'd expect....

This is a STUNNING double album of goa trance. The first disc is full power, layered melodic bombast. Whether it's Fiery Dawn all by himself or collaborating with some other accomplished goa mavens it is all I could have hoped for,
The second disc is... See full review |

Beatless and drone style ambient is super easy to get lost in. I imagine it like the sunken place in the movie "Get Out." The listener is hyper aware of all sound and stimuli, but is rendered immobile in the attempt to identify and pinpoint each...

Global Sect Music has released nothing but quality goa trance over the years always outdoing their previous output. I say this knowing a 6-CD compilation Hallucinations of the Buddah is available for pre-order.
Alienapia and ShivaOm combine to... See full review |

Like previous reviewers have said this is a comp that you shouldn't break the bank for. The amount of money this illicits is obscene. The artwork is nice, but what really counts is the music on the inside and that is for the most part subpar. Lots of...

There is something raw and powerful about this collection. Majority of tracks have that Psychopod depth with numerous layers of psychedelia. Which makes sense when you realize who the driving forces are behind this compilation. They took goa into a...

Ok, perhaps we've wrung all we can out of poor Oliver? From DAT Records releasing the outstanding Virtuart and Friends and the Sacred Drop Ep, and then Suntrip dropping the original and fantastic versions of Drekhar, what does the poor guy have left...

This was a fantastic compilation. If you like powerful music that straddles the line between progressive and psytrance then do not hesitate to check this one out. Great melodies, drifting atmospheres, and effective use of breaks. Well done BMSS!

DM with another album where they struggle mightily to create music that made them the icons they are. SOTU is a slog weighed down by their legacy and DM is on a search to find their place in today's scene. Remember when they used to create uptempo...

"I've found the piece I've been searching for!"
Alas I have not. This is not the DM album you're looking for. They've been wandering aimlessly since Ultra and it seems they are trying to discover where they fit in. This is another album where Dave... See full review |

Like a lot of people I grew up on Depeche Mode. When hair metal and grunge ruled the airwaves DM was always there outlasting trends in music. Their catalogue is ridiculously impressive and it wouldn't be remiss to call them icons of not just...

This artist is a machine. He continues to churn out layer heavy, atmospheric psytrance that never gets old. Melodies? Yep, Seamless blending of phrases that tell a story? Oh yeah. Another thing, his production values are off the charts. Just amazing talent.

Fully agree with the previous reviewer. Super smooth, bouncy at times, and always lush. Not a single annoying buildup to be found. One of my all time favorites.

Sublime progressive trance that continually evolves and mutates. Lush, melodic, and the perfect vehicle with which to drift away. Gold. Standard.

After 2 underwhelming entries in the Heart of Goa Series this one sets the ship right and comes out swinging. There is a lot of great goa and psychedelic trance here chock full of power and melody. Hector did a... See full review |

If you're a fan of melodic, floating, layered progressive trance soaked in reverb, this is for you. Great remixes.

Not a bad track to be found here and holds up well! Very smooth.
