"Goa times - Now and Then" is a compilation, which illustrates the old supernal melodies and sounds, which were spiritual, psychedelic and mystical. It revives those melodies, which are no longer prevalent in the energy released by psychedelic aspect of trance today. Although the conception remains the same, the sonic waves that unite the body and soul today are popularly termed 'New age'. It's quite clear today that the trip still has the same destination, but the traveler has evolved in terms of space and time. Goa Times features tracks from both ends of the spectrum - Modern day epics as well as parables of the late 90's. They say, "If Old was so gold - the sound of Goa wouldnít be a personal distinction". We say "Old is gold and Goa remains gilded". Goa Times - Now And Then, it's your decision.
