My love for old goa trance compilations

[HappyHorse]

Some of the compilations I really like:

 

 

-Various - Goa Head 4

→ Why? It is pure madness; like walking into a disturbed and psychedelic circus show.

 

-Various ‎– Goa-Head Volume 8

→ This compilation is a perfect mix of classical goa trance sounds and the more (older) psy trance sound.

 

-Various ‎– Distance To Goa 4

→ Why? This is pure funky and deep goa trance with swirling drive!

 

-Various ‎– Distance To Goa 7

→ Why? Most complete psytrance compilation ever made!!! I wish I can make one of the same level (would be a dream come true). Production and mastereing on the CD is fucking amazing and beyond everything else.

Hey, Q: what's the first GOA -trance VA /Compilation released, be it DAT, CD or whatever. Not talking unofficial ones...though also interesting maybe. I'm asking the very first goa VA - anyone know?

In the end it depends where you draw the line on what you call Goa. No music genre was invented overnight. But at some point comes a release that should qualify for that title. I think the general consensus is for this release
