Goa Gil

While digging through drawers full of old junk one day at my dad’s house, I found some cassette tapes filled with silly home recordings. One tape in particular contained recordings of my sister and I as young children; reading nursery rhymes, telling jokes, inventing bizarre radio stations and other ridiculous shows, plus a wide variety of other incredibly random sound bytes and noises. In other words, I had stumbled upon a sample goldmine!

“1985 EP” is a collection of strange, brooding, electronic rhythms that were inspired by the quirky, nostalgic sounds I sampled from that childhood cassette tape.

Enjoy!

This series has been centered on the classics of goa and psychedelic trance, but this trip we go back to proto-goa, and with the opening genre-defining masterpiece from 1982 proto-proto-goa. In 1982 I was 7, clearly too young to get what this new sounding music was. Hell in 1991 I was still discovering the evolving dance music scene here in the UK - unaware of the proto-goa movement that had happened in Europe and on the other side of the world. What amazes me is I thought I knew this genre, but again I find the proto-goa and new beat movements really defined the sound of the first wave of goa and then later psychedelic trance. 

This series is finally starting to move in to the more recent years, what are your thoughts on that? Would you prefer to keep it classic, or more recent?

Por onde andares, são teus os mares
Quem ouviu remou
Yo, ho. todos. Nossas cores erguer
Ladrões e mendigos, jamais irão morrer
Yo, ho, todos juntos
Nossas cores erguer
Ladrões e mendigos, jamais irão morrer.

"Redefining the ancient tribal ritual for the 21st century. Dance is active meditation. When we dance we go beyond thought, beyond mind, and beyond our own individuality to become one in the divine ecstasy of union with the cosmic spirit. This is the essence of the Trance Dance experience" - Goa Gil (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZiGFetz_KbY)

The world is full of parties, in jungles, in valleys and mountains, in deserts and fields, and in forests. What do they all sound like?

Production Notes
- This track has morphed several times over its creation. It started out as a remix or retelling of a very old mod track I created in FastTracker2 called 'dead flies', and then morphed in to an experiment in using a reference track as a guide for a track's arrangement. This reference / arrangement experiment worked well, and I quickly had a nicely progressing track, but after a couple of minutes it lead to a dead end. With no coherent 'story' to the track it felt like a jumbled mess of disperate ideas. I added more vocal loops which were again, taken from all over the planet. Persian chants, Tibetan throat singing, south American tribespeople murmerings, and anything else. Separately it sounded cool, but it wasn't until stumbling on the Goa Gil interview that it fell in to place. "24 hours in the forest, everywhere in the world". Now let's start throwing little clips away and trimming the track down... I even threw away the reference track as it had served its purpose. Up until the last editing session the opening vocal hit was different, and the main bass samples still needed an overhaul.

The Ramayana is the version Nitzho 'Goa Trance' into Sanskrit Hindu epic that tells the story of
Rama (the personification of Vishnu). Their main purpose is to demonstrate the correct path (dharma) to life on Earth.
Containing nine chapters, this set full of mixed melodies and psychedelic synths,subliminal messages and 
astral theme, aims to provide an ultimate state of enlightenment to listeners and at the end of this journey, feel
best spiritually. But there is no light without darkness! So chaos sound of explosions, abductions and confrontations
with demons of the underworld can be noticed and felt into the scales and the eccentric harmonies of NitzhoGoa.
Enter the mental exile, like Rama. Be Abducted just like Sita .Travel to the Kingdom of Vanara with Hanuman.Feel the wrath of 
Ravana and observe the emergence of Varuna, the God-Sea.Face the Battle of Lanka and win all the evil in your own heart.I hope this 
psychedelic experience  can approach you the Divine that is within each one.

Goa and psychedelic trance oldskool and nu cool mixes for days!

English hobbyist DJ and psytrance producer, his head in the clouds and his ears in the psychedelic back allies of the past. Decades ago jrb deejayed with tactile formats - vinyl, CD, mixing desks, now it's all done in software. Not live, non-destructive, remastered and spliced to high heaven. Earlier still jrb made music with the primitive fasttracker2 software music software for the PC, and ran music groups OnyxTrance (nxt), Blackhole (bh) as well as releasing for other internet module labels, such as Chill, Twist, and LoK. In between he released a few bootlegs (mixing vocals from one track with the backing from another track, with often hilarious results).

Some random modules or early DJ mixes from this yesteryear era may appear here from time-to-time... don't be alarmed!
