Psychedelic trance originated out of Goa, India, as a combination of electronic dance and 1960s and ’70s rock music. Today, it’s played all around the world, including in Spain, where Óscar Esteban (@ravingcaveman) is DJ for “The Raving Caveman Show” on Barcelona City FM.
In this Here & Now DJ Session, Esteban shares selections from the Spanish psytrance scene, and tells host Jeremy Hobson that part of what makes the genre special is its laid-back, welcoming vibe.
Note: We have a Spotify playlist and an Apple Music playlist for our weekly DJ Sessions.
