goa

Goa is the name of a sub-genre of Trance that has roots all the way back to the province of Goa in India. It is characterized by its use of a driving 4/4 beat (some goa is in 3/3), a trance-inducing melody(usually in an eastern or indian set of notes a.k.a. scale) that is performed by various synthesizers (not all of it is done with a roland TB-303, God, that would be boring as hell), and various effects like teleport zapping, blasts, and pitch bending cracks that help to create a mystical like state to a listener. Lastly, goa is TRANCE, not techno. Duh. Oh yeah, and psytrance is just a broken down more mechanical version of goa, if you were wondering.

Artists include infected mushroom, dreamchild, astral projection, GMS, sun project, etc.

GOA

Gone On Arrival: Used to describe a person who flees the scene as soon as someone else arrives. It is used by police who arrive on scene in search of a suspect.

We thought the suspect was GOA as soon as we opened his front door. Turns out he was just hiding under the crawl space.
