• Goa is essentially dance-trance music (and was
  referred as Trance Dance in its formative
  years), and as such has an energetic beat, almost
  always at 4/4 and often going into 16th or 32nd
  notes. A typical number will generally built up
  to a much more energetic moment in the second
  half of the track and then taper off fairly
  quickly towards the end. Generally 8-12 minutes
  long, Goa tracks usually have a noticeable
  stronger bassline than other trance music and
  incorporate more organic squelchy sounds.
