I started to type in Goa in YouTube and it auto filled with Goa Trance. So in other words, trance! It was a popular sound in clubs at the time and was infused in The Matrix movies. It was the "rave" back then. Where it stands now in music culture I will bow to your wisdom.
Again, trance comes in many different shapes and forms. It has a myriad of sub genres. Some, especially the more mainstream variants, are more closely tied to the period. Others, like psytrance and goa, are more detached and aren't as easily dated -- even if Goa in its original form had its heyday in the late 90s and early 2000s.
What you hear in MATRIX REVOLUTIONS is not dated. And especially not when merged with Davis' soundscapes -- which is at the cutting edge of orchestral writing.
The only way you could say that the score is dated, is that you rarely hear this kind of edgy orchestral writing in action and genre films anymore. Still happens, but usually in smaller scale (like Mica Levi's UNDER THE SKIN, for example).

Are you referring to music culture on Earth or that strange far off land you live? Cause every red-blooded American knows the Unites States is Earth.
BTW I also picked up MATRIX REVOLUTIONS in the sale.
