It's named after Goa, India -- a city on the west coast. It's supposed to be the acid capitol of the world. During their summer (our winter), it's turned onto a party town for students from europe and Isreal. The music, also referred to as psychedelic trance, is fast trance music with loads of gurguly acid lines and synthetic basslines. If you sped up Eat Static, you'd be pretty much there. There's loads of crappy goa comps out there, but if you want to try a good one get something from Blue Room, Return To The Source or The Infinity Project (tip). Goa DJ's from the UK don't spin Vinyl, they use two portable DAT's and mix them during ambient intros and outro's. They make tracks themselves and trade them with other DJ's. If the stuff gets released, it's not until well after they're through with it. By the time an American GOA DJ gets ahold of it on vinyl, it's been around for at least a year in the UK.
