acid-brain Posted October 22, 2022 Share Posted October 22, 2022 Hey, I recently organised my goa compilations CD collection. Is this a good collection? Which absolute classics am I missing?

Tsotsi Posted October 23, 2022 Share Posted October 23, 2022 Nice collection, I'm going to use this list for some myself. From the modern era (My favourite Era) I have a few comps I would add, I noticed you don't have many 'cosmic neogoa' releases and might not like the style. But I have a few comps that opened the style up to me listed All from Global Sect below 'VA - 2017 - Terraformer' 'VA - 2018 - Shambhala' 'VA - 2020 - Globalsect Radio' These are all on the cosmic side, Terraformer has had some people not like it at first, but as you listen more you start to get a really good appreciation of the cosmic style. It's one of my favourite compilations. Might as well pick up the last of the Cronomi Comps 'VA - 2013 - If I wasn't Human I'd Be a Trance Track' And the rest Essentials 'VA - 2013 - Tribal Encore' 'VA - 2013 - The Kingdom' 'VA - 2016 - Svermirski Hod' 'VA - 2017 - Goa Trance Legacy by DJ Psara' 'VA - 2018 - Goa Trance Legacy by Kanc Cover' - Underated but essential 'VA - 2019 - GOAGILDE [Norway's Got Goatrance]' - Another one of my top 3 modern comps, awesome looking physical release too. 'VA - 2019 - ZNA Gathering Retro Futuristic Compilation II' 'VA - 2020 - Rootless' - Similar to the Suntrip Carpe Noctum release (A touch better imo) 'VA - 2021 - MystikA' - (Similar to the Suntrip Gamma Draconis Release) Noteworthy 'VA - 2013 - Voyager: First Plateau' 'VA - 2017 - 604 Syndroms' - Goa Trance that could be played in a nightclub 'VA - 2017 - Fluorotronik' 'VA - 2018 - Call Of Goa v3 - New Horizons' 'VA - 2018 - Elan Vital' - A few of the biggest baddest tracks on this one (Listen to the Proxeeus and Adam Shiva tracks 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
acid-brain Posted October 23, 2022 Author Share Posted October 23, 2022 Thanks for the recommendations. The Trust In Trance compilations are a big blind spot, I'll hunt the best of those down. It looks like I'm missing some absolute classics like Goa Vibes Vol. 2. I haven't heard much "cosmic neogoa" besides some Celestial Intellience tracks which I liked, I'll look into that thank you! Also really appreciate the Rootless and MystikA recommendations as they do seem like exactly the type of modern compilations I'd like.

Cosmic Goa is my absolute favourite style, but the high quality 'goa' tracks you find in Gamma Draconis and MystikA can be found also in compilations like the 'Spacedock Goa Trance Legacy releases' Also the Tribal Encore and The Kingdom releases will be right up your alley. *I've edited my list to separate the essentials from the Noteworthy. I place all in the essential category, but I know I am very easy to please and enjoy most releases. So The Essential section is more to reflect where I think other people would place the compilations to narrow it down a bit for you and not slam you with 20 releases to check out all at once.

the goa constrictor Posted October 25, 2022 Share Posted October 25, 2022 I don't see either of my comps on there, so I'd recommend Crop Circle Jerk Blue Balls Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
