The Goa Mix is a two-hour DJ mix by British musician and DJ Paul Oakenfold. It was originally broadcast on BBC Radio 1 as an Essential Mix on 18 December 1994 after the producer of the show,Eddie Gordon,chose Oakenfold to produce an eclectic DJ mix for the show which featured a burgeoning variation of electronic styles,having begun the previous year. Oakenfold had,at this point,developed his own unique Goa trance sound,influenced by his time at hippy gatherings on beaches in Goa,and employed it heavily into the mix,which also made pioneering use of film score samples. Oakenfold used the mix as an experiment in which he tried to fuse electronic music,especially trance music,with film score music,and then to overlay the result with vocal parts,samples and additional production. The mix was split into two parts,later referred to as the Silver Mix and the Gold Mix respectively. Reflecting the Goa influence,the album title did not evolve beyond its simplistic working name.
