Hi all,
For the last months, I've been working on a kind of essay trying to sum up all the essential info about the psy scene.
I saw a few threads from people here trying to find such things over the Internet, that's why I'm writing about it here.
Up to now, my plan is as follows :
1. History of the movement : background, 1991-1993, 1994-1998, 1999-2003, with biographies of 10 pioneer-artists and essential discography.
2. Aesthetics of Psy trance : gears used, types of sound, structures, stuff related to musical theory.
3. Parties & People : A typical party in Goa in the heyday, main festivals throughout the world, main locations, the situation of the scene today (record sales, main labels...)
I found my infos on different articles on the web. Only the first part is finished, and still needs to be translated from French to English.
Anyway, do you have some suggestions to make in respect to this project ? New parts to add, some good articles to read ? I'll put it online in English asap.
Thanks !
J.

GOA goa GOA goa all the way
  I like nonsense, it wakes up the brain cells. Fantasy is a necessary ingredient in living, its a way of looking at life through the wrong end of a telescope. Which is what I do,and that enables you to laugh at lifes realities |

It's a great idea Jeff!
I think you can talk about the meaning of the musics and what was the different inspirations to create it a long of the years.
Good luck! |

Thank you all very much !
I already knew all these articles, so I think I did a good preliminary job so far !
A sidenote for kaz : my purpose is obviously not to gather as many info as possible on Goa Trance.
We are in the Internet era, I know I can't do a better job than Google as far as quantity is concerned.
Yet having too many info could be a problem on the other hand, and as shahar said, everything you read on the Net is not 100% reliable. Hope I'll manage to make a nice synthesis, that I'll submit to people knowing their stuff, and which'll be a starting point for someone who wants to study a precise detail further.
