Psytrance is super repetitive music originating in Goa in the early 90s it has the most depressing "drops" ever with long build-ups only to return back to the same repetitive beat psytrance drops are the definition of an anticlimax. The only time that the music is truly bearable is if you are tripping balls and you can hear colours.

Example:
Make your own Psytrance or should I say Suicide-trance:
Say this really fast shugadugadugadugadugadugadugadugaduga(zen Buddhist talking about philosophy and the meaning of life)dugadugadugadugaduga..... And throw in some old school Sci-fi noises.

Ps. The colours are fucking Amazing.

Psychedelic trance, often referred to as psytrance, is a form of trance music that developed from goa trance in the early 1990s. Trance generally has a fast tempo, in the range 140 to 150 beats per minute (bpm). The emphasis in Psychedelic 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, for instance Native Instruments Kontakt. The use of analog synthesizers for sound synthesis has given way to digital "virtual analogue" 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 host commercial sequencer applications such as Logic and Cubase. Completely software-based algorithms and studios are also increasingly popular in commercial sequencer applications and other self-contained modular applications e.g. Propellerheads Reason and Fruity Loops.

Psytrance is most popular in the UK, Israel, Mexico, Germany, Japan, Australia, Brazil, South Africa, Serbia and Montenegro, Netherlands, and Goa. The genre is not as well known outside its "scene" as anthem or progressive trance is.

Example:
some of the most popular psytrance artists ever:

Infected Mushroom, Astral Projection, GMS, Hallucinogen, and California Sunshine

reccomended: Nystagmus - The Immaculate Perception, Talpa - The Art of Being Non, Penta - Funraiser, Midi Miliz - Nonstandards,Fatali - Faith

Psytrance is like an evil worm that can burrow its way across any music festival, through any material, and still reach your eardrums while your attempting to sleep. You could probably play psytrance inside a underground nuclear fallout shelter and it would still make its way out into the world.

Example:
"Man, I can't wait to go to bed tonight and have psytrance wake me up at 3am with the sound of an alien throwing a metallic spoon cluster down a long cathedral hallway." *person walking with friends back to their campsite at music festival.*
