Goa Gil is probably known by most people listening to psytrance. He was one of the first djs in Goa in the 70s. A resident dj at parties on the West Indian coast, in the bamboo forest for 30 years! He is originally from San Francisco, USA. In the 80s, he started playing electronic music, which went over to goa/psytrance in the nineties. He is also known for his aim to create something more than just a disco under the trees. Goa Gil sure has changed style by the years. He is now playing very dark, banging trance. This mix is full of modern psychedelic trance, perfect for those of you who like dark, fast going trance. It seems like trance has divided into different styles the last couple of years, and this is one of the them. Personally I'm not a big fan of this "russian style" though. In my ears many of the tracks on this compilation doesn't sound deep enough, with mostly random, noisy sounds that doesn't really go anywhere. Something for the night.
