Psytrance is super repetitive music originating in Goa in the early 90s it has the most depressing "drops" ever with long build-ups only to return back to the same repetitive beat psytrance drops are the definition of an anticlimax. The only time that the music is truly bearable is if you are tripping balls and you can hear colours.

Psytrance is like an evil worm that can burrow its way across any music festival, through any material, and still reach your eardrums while your attempting to sleep. You could probably play psytrance inside a underground nuclear fallout shelter and it would still make its way out into the world.
