What do you think about UX's remastered Ultimate Experience? Do you prefer the original or the remastered version? Also this is really good Proxeeus – At The Mountains Of Madness. Listening to it right know

Im browsing Ektoplazm and there is so much free goa albums that I dont know where to start. Any suggestions?

How I wish I was born sooner and had grew up during the golden psytrance age

I started somewhere in the beginning of 2015, so that would mean I was 18 years old. My first tracks were Talamasca - Jungle Storm, Hallucinogen - LSD and Etnica - Starship 101.

Are there any more tracks with synths that pierce right through your heart and leave you bleeding like those that start in Cyclothymic at 2:45? (those are called synths right?)

This album is SO STRONG! One of my favorite new school albums. Every track is very good but tracks 4, 5 and 7 are exremely great!

Psychosis is really good! I would put it in my playlist if it was remastered

Its somewhat the same for me but goa has become a hobby in some sense. And gotta admit, it feels very weird knowing that you are the only one in almost whole generation of people around me that even knows what goa trance is. When people ask me "what music do you listen to?" and I answer, they are all like "What the hell is that?!" and that is why I spend a lot of time here. Love this forum cause people here actually know the music Im talking about! Slinky Nuns - Shitty Stick is a very psychedelic track for me for an example. I love good acid. Melodies too, but they are not such a psy factor in goa IMO

Well I cant take it into consideration since I wasnt alive back then to hear it. No matter the release date, there are some of the oldest releases that I rate with 10. I got bored halfway so much that it started to annoy me. Nevertheless, Maia is one of the best tracks I've ever heard!

Ive gone back to IFO and well... gotta say that after listening so much more albums and listening to IFO again, i realised that I overrated it. Now I would give it a 6, maybe 6.5/10. Maia and Celaeno are the only tracks I care for on the album. The rest is meh IMO. Instead of IFO I would probably add Cosmosis' Retro Volumes I and II.

Labyrinth Bible of Dreams Shango The great tribal three

Ubar Tmar's music is the first thing that came to my mind too

I understand what you're saying and I too dont want to make a being suffer. But we have to, as you said it, "Kill to survive". Imagine yourself in woods, surviving. Would you kill an animal or a plant and eat it because you value your own life above all else (like I do), or are you going to starve for melancholic reasons. I completely understand both but, personally, I think that we are entitled to that amount of selfishness, where you put your own existance above all else (like animals do and we are animals). As for possesions, wooden chairs, closets, leather jackets and boots and so on... Well, my ideal idea of living is in nature in anarchy. You take as much as you need from the nature and thats it. No need for greed, unnecessary violance etc... But even though I have this idea of anarchy and complete freedom, I simply am not ready to fulfill it. I am too scared and lazy and I would have to give up so much. And that is the question "Would you give up luxury of modern life for complete freedom?". I understand your anger because I too am angry! All we have to do is figure out if we are going to change ourselves to fit our feelings, or are we going to stand idle like the rest of this lazy and ignorant civilization? Like Nietzsche said "What do you know of life you comfortable people?" As for the violence in meat industries, like Padmapani said, we cant do much except stop indulging in their products...

We are omnivores. We have the right to choose our diet. Its fine to eat meat and its fine to eat plants. The point of all this is dont kill stuff out of fun.

Well chickens do exist thanks to us. It is one of the earliest forms of genetic modification in some sense. There are no wild chicken or cows. And I simply love meat as a luxury but also as a great source of nutrients. I would never hurt or hunt an animal as sport but only for food and that is fine by me. Its the food chain. Its cruel but that is nature. Animals also kill other animals. If I had to choose from eating plants or eating meat, I would choose meat without thinking. Also why is it cruel to butcher a chicken but its ok to kill plants for the same purpose. The fact that plants dont suffer (feel pain) is not an excuse! A plant is just as much alive as animals are, in existential sense, and you kill them as much as you kill an animal.

I have astigmatism and i take certain "pharmaceuticals". I also see "halos" around peoples head when they are infront of a white wall for an example and street lamps or even the moon has glare around it. I reckon that if I stop it with die down after some prolonged period of time to the point I stop noticing it. I definitely saw halos around objects when I was in elementary school but cant remember any visual snow. Wonder if its HPPD...

I get into conspiracy theories. Got a personal theory how Charles Manson was framed for murder to help bring down the hippie movement. 9/11 too. Kinda obvious that they did it to themselves, blamed it on the middle east just to have a cause for war. And I dont think its a waste of time. It does burn energy but it is very useful to be aware of the shit that is going on around us and to realize how cowardly and foolish we are to keep up with it. But yeah, lets sedate ourselves, forget and move on.

Your task is to compile the ultimate comp with your favorite 8-12 downtempo goa tracks, old or newschool, in an order of tracks you like the best and give it a name. If you wish you can add a story to your compilation. My compilation would be something like this: 1. Total Eclipse - The Pendulum 2. RA - Sirius 3. Total Eclipse - Time Drops 4. Chronos - Mandala 5. Makyo - Behind the Veil 6. Liquid Flow - Event Horizon 7. Paradise Connection - Longbaceglider On Solstice 8. Transwave - Ulysse (Voyage 3) 9. MWNN - Azymuth 10. Transwave - Ulysse (Voyage 2) 11. Tandu - New Aura 12. Ra - Ascend and I would call it "V/A - The Conquest of Self" edit: The story of this compilation of mine is mostly embedded into my emotions. Its about the year of 2015, one of the most important years in my life. It's about my discovery of Nietzche's philosophy and my epiphany about this hypocritical bullshit society ( "The walls of reality come crashing down" Ra - Sirius) and my struggle to contain my melancholic anger. I would go to an psychiatrist thinking that I was losing my mind who told me that well... I wasn't losing it. Most tracks are very intense so they portray that struggle. In that time I also started to recreationally do LSD so that had thrown me even deeper into the this trip. Not in a bad way, far from it. I am very glad it did but Im not gonna bore you with the "drugs improved my life" sentiment. Tracks 9-12 are very emotional for me (I would also add Khetzal - Lost wind but its too uptempo, it would be perfect to portay the end) and its where I started to calm down, bearing the new knowledge and strong opinions. "Everything you see around you is what you create. And all you can do is experience this essential process as it unfolds. Live in the now!" (Ra - Ascend, what a perfect name for the closing track) I realise that there is no true and objective reality. Choose your own good and your own evil, and hang your will above you as a law! Be the best version of yourself, the overman. At the beginning of 2015 I also discovered goa trance which is a HUGE thing for me.

Are flac digital downloads quality-wise as good as cds? I think that digital is the way to go for me. A bit cheaper and I still get to support the artists Yeah I follow Anoebis on facebook. His collection makes me drool!

Cd collectors on this forum I ask you why do you collect CD's? Im a student and well, I live in Serbia so my financial state isnt so great and I was wondering if it would be worth it for me to start a collection? There are a few albums that I love and would like to own. Or should I just stick to promo videos on youtube? Also I am asking because I am afraid these CDs wont be for sale by the time I start earning my own money (which wont be anytime soon).

Uptempo: 1: The World Beyond (Neogoa Records) 2: Proxeeus - At the Mountains of Madness (Neogoa Records) 3: Denshi Danshi - Fluid Dynamics (Suntrip Records) 4: V/A - Aurora Sidera (Suntrip Records) 5: Lunar Dawn - Kolovrat (Neo Goa Records) 6: The Mystery Of Crystal Worlds (Global Sect Music) 7: 01-N - Acid Experiments (Timewarp Records)

Anybody know a movie or a a show with this "Fuck this bullshit society" attitude? I'm totally digging it.

We are not crying because neogoa is not like old school. We're, I am, butthurt because it's not AS GOOD as old school. So we should give them best grades because they are making music they like? No. We are on the receiving end and we judge. If the process of making music satisfies those producers, then great and they should not care about what someone says on this "grumpy" forum. The difference between this forum and others is that most people here were old enough to hear what existed before neogoa while the crowd nowadays is not. "As scene is small its hard to get international gigs, and yes if artist want to be heard and want to play he must respect some 'standards' of today." and this is how this music takes it's turn for the worse. You let needs of the mass dictate how you should make your music so that you get to play on international festivals? So be it, but lets make it clear that that is called commercialization. You change music so that a bigger crowd likes it instead of letting it get attention as it is. Proof enough. These are facts IMO and Im not trying to be toxic. Dont get me wrong though. I have been listening and exploring neogoa releases for past 2 weeks. Not a single old school one. Some releases are A M A Z I N G, while most are not. I am not against change, but lets look at what ends up with musical change around the globe... Yup it changes for the worse because producers are trying so hard to satisfy needs of a bigger crowd, and the need of this high crowd is next to nothing. And what is interesting about neogoa is that one of the best music I hear is FREE on ektoplasm. See my point?

1: The World Beyond 2: V/A - Aurora Sidera 3: Lunar Dawn - Kolovrat 4: Denshi Danshi - Fluid Dynamics 5: Ephedra - Journey Through My Head 6: The Mystery Of Crystal Worlds 7: M-RUn - Some RUn Just For Fun 8: Proxeeus - At The Mountain of Madness 9: Mindsphere - Inner Cyclone 10: Portamento - The Portal *Edited* Only the most acidic of the newschool could keep me interested to the end. As for compilations, I've listened just to: V/A - The World Beyond Aurora Sidera And they are a must.

It is definitely more serious. But gotta love the funky funny dance part in Space Dwarves at 5:10. Makes me smile every time.
