Trying to expand my horizons here, I've been hooked on Astral Projection, and Infected Mushroom, for sometime now. Wondering if there is more out there than just these two. These two artisit are Goa, correct?

Are you new born ? Did you started listening to trance yesterday ? :) If you only know for those two groups, then you really need to expand your horizons, cause the range is pretty wide...Yes, Astral Projection could have been called Goa but Infected surely can't. Astral is actually not making Goa as they used to be ( Trust In Trance, Astral Files, Dancing Galaxy, Another World ) but rather some progressive psychedelic and Infected Mushroom was from the start very psychedelic and didn't have any oriental influenced melodies and drum patterns. Goa is based on oriental, pretty wild and quirky psychedelic trance from the early period ( 94-97 ) where slowly evoloved to more psychedelic realms ( 97 -00 ) after which proceeded to more progressive or minimal style ( 00-02 ) and return to full on, but in much progressed way ( 02-04 ), so there aren't any more artists that produce real Goa Trance. But, there are heaps of "oldies" that still sound very professional, brilliant and quality like : MFG - The Prophecy, New Kind Of World, Project Genesis, HALLUCINOGEN - Twisted, The Lone Deranger, TOTAL ECLIPSE - Delta Aquarids, Violent Relaxation, ETNICA - Alien Protein, Equator, PLEIADIANS - Identified Flying Objects, Family Of Light, DOOF - Let's Turn On, MIRANDA - Phenomena, PRANA - Cyclone, Geomantik, BATTLE OF THE FUTURE BUDDHAS - Twin Sharkfins, INDOOR - Progressive Trance, ELECTRIC UNIVERSE - One Love, Stardiver, COSMOSIS - Cosmology, Synergy, TRANSWAVE - Hypnorhythm, Helium, Phototropic, and like many many more great albums, you just need to dig deep and to discover great Goa Trance albums that were made before...Good Luck in finding them...;)

If you were to use "Goa Trance" in it's more generic way though, yes, Astral Projection and Infected Mushroom is goa trance or psy trance or whatever...

 

If you like those two artists, Seraph has some good suggestions for you.

 

My personal favorites of his list are:

 

MFG - New Kind of World

Etnica - Alien Protein

Pleiadians - IFO

Electric Universe - Stardiver

Cosmosis - Cosmology

Transwave - Helium <--not easy to get anymore

 

Three that he didn't mention that you should be able to get:

 

X-dream - We Created Our Own Happiness

X-dream - Panic in Paradise

Man With No Name - Teleportation

 

I especially recommend Man With No Name for those that like older Astral Projection.

 

And this is just the early stuff. There is so much more...

Well, you were asking for GOA right? How much Goa was released after 2000? The redhighlighted album by 1200 Mics is from 2002...!
