Lately ive been hearing alot of people talking about psytrance around me ..... but actualy it made super crazy when i was hearing so much bullshit and non-sence talking about it,based on faulse facts !
so i decided to dig a lil bit in the net to put an end to the funny silly ideas about psytrance and its origin :
Psychedelic trance, often referred to as psytrance, is a form of electronic music that developed from Goa trance in the early 1990s when it first began hitting the mainstream. In some psychedelic trance circles and online communities, 'Psychedelic' is the preferred name for the genre as it provides an umbrella term for the many divergent styles including Goa, full on, dark, prog and suomi. Referring to it as "psychedelic" also distinguishes the style from the clubbier type of trance music and reinforces the roots of Goa trance in the psychedelic community. Psychedelic trance generally has a fast tempo, in the range 135 to 150 BPM but has developed into numerous different styles within the genre all with their own range of tempos. The emphasis in psychedelic trance is placed strongly on purely synthesized timbres in terms of programming and lead melodies. The original Goa trance was often made with popular Modular synthesizers and hardware samplers, but the preference in Psychedelic trance has moved to sample manipulation and storage in VST and AU software sampler applications. The use of analog synthesizers for sound synthesis has given way to digital "virtual analog" instruments like the Nord Lead, Access Virus, Korg MS-2000, Roland JP-8000 and computer VST and AU plugins like Native Instruments Reaktor. These are usually controlled by MIDI sequencers within Digital Audio Workstation (DAW) applications.
Psytrance is most popular in the UK, Israel, Portugal, Mexico, Germany, Japan, Australia, Brazil, South Africa, Serbia, Macedonia, Netherlands, the Nordic countries and India. The genre is not as well known outside its scene as uplifting or progressive is.

Hey Superman. Could you please post some of the roumers, or wrong information that the young people over there are spreading? It would be interesting. For the topic it self, I remember a very good link posted about the earlie history about Goa and psychedelic eløectronic dance musics origin. It started in the 80's. Trippers making the worlds first acid-trance which then became the label Goa-trance which then got pop and changed name to the very kewl and poppish name, psy-trance. And then all hell broke loose with Full-On and other morphed genres from EDM out-side the "psy" spirit. Oh what a history. oh oh. oh.
