	Goa trance music
		Goa is a sub-genre of trance music which originated in the Indian region of Goa.
		The music has its roots in the popularity of the Goa region in the late 1960s and early '70s as a hippie mecca, although the actual Goa trance style would not appear until much later.
		Goa is essentially "dance-trance" music (and was referred to 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 Bit of a Goa
		In recent years Goa has earned something of a reputation for decadent living, and was for some years one of the major centers of flowerpower and psychedelia in the Far East.
		As the region is quite isolated, stuck as it is between the ocean and the high peaks of the Western Ghats, it’s hardly surprising that the local cooking has come to be dominated by fish harvested from the sea and rice grown in paddies on the lower slopes of the mountains.
		Located in the heart of Old Goa, the traditional administrative capital of the Portuguese colony, this is one of the finest old Christian churches outside of Europe.
