Tripping on music

reggea is usually good, but as many others have said, The Doors,Led zepplin,black sabbath, usually good rock music from the 70's.

 

I suggest Psychedelic Trance (Goa Trance)

It really takes you away. The best I've recently listened is
Osom-Over game
But there are some classics (yep not that new) like Astral Projection and Infected Mushroom.
Everybody says that Psychedelic Trance is taking the place of Psychedelic Rock of 60's.
I wish 60's occure again not only in musical way but also other ways.

Enjoy

 

i wouldn't
i find it very disturbing music.
in fact i hate it if you want elektronic music take drum n bass

 

oh yes yes yes. the music surrounds me, and i'm there. i'm written into the score. i am what it works around. it weaves in and out of me, drawing me closer and tighter and....... i'll shut up, you get the idea

 

that is weird how u can hear the song so much better

 

arent all the effects of weed wierd??? lol!

 

Space, the final frontier ...

 

Why does no one ever recommend classic music?

I really love "Pictures of an exhibition" (the orchestral version) by Modest Mussorgsky, especially when I´m on Acid.

 

Well, I did mention Ravi Shankar, who plays Indian classical, but I also like baroque, chamber music, etc., not all the time, but occasionally. Virgil Fox is (was) a pretty hip dude.

 

When I saw Ravi Shankar in concert at Penn State in 1967, there was an announcement: "Out of respect for Mr. Shankar, we request that there be no smoking in the auditorium ... of anything!"

The following spring, I saw Charles Lloyd in concert and bought his "Journey Within" album. As I posted in another thread, it's got some freaky effects, like an Indian flute that sounds like a baby crying. On another track, Keith Jarrett ends up his piano solo by rocking the pedals and making the strings squeak.

 

the doors.....deeply engrained in some neural pathways...just for them.

 

some of the most surreal expriences I've had have been walking around philly sober with my ipod or discman on so that I can't hear anything going on around me, only the music. with some good music (i'd highly recommend spoon, neutral milk hotel, or some alkaline trio as well as floyd and all that other good stuff), and with so much going on around me, everything seems like you're in a movie or just in a different world.

by the way which one's pink? It's pretty funny someone asked about the band like it was a solo artist, but technically it is the name of the main character in The Wall, and a persona taken on by the band throughout their carreer.

 

I can completely relate. I live in Philly and while walking around (mainly center city area) with some good music in your discman its easy to just get taken away. A couple days ago i was blasting a rare Miles Davis live recording on my way to meet some friends at a bar.
As chaotic as this city can be, i was in my own world, just floating by. When i got to the bar a friend asked me if i walked up walnut street or sansom st., i didn't know. I just got there.......

 

I remember I was inside the song " When the levee breaks" Led Zeppeline, I just had been travelling along the guitar's, drumms' sounds & Plant's voice... I was inside his voice! It was increadible...

 

well if your refering to 'tripping' on music without drugs then I totally know what you mean!
Music, in all its glorious forms can be so unbelievably emotional and spiritual.
I make time everyday now to just put on a CD, burn some incense and trance out. I can honestly say music is one of the most beautiful and perfect things on this planet, I love it.
I dont usually go anywhere without my CD player or minidisc

I also use music when I trip (on substances), I find that it guides my trips in a much more spiritual and positive direction.

 

I've experienced this on numorous occasions. A few of those occasions happened to be when I was listening to "THE END" by The Doors. According to this thread, that song has the same effect on alot of people. Another song that trips me out every time I listen to it is "SET THE CONTROLS FOR THE HEART OF THE SUN" by Pink Floyd. If you haven't heard it, listen to it.

 

I do drugs to make music to do drugs to

i forget who said that it was some band

 

I got really stoned and lay down on the couch listening to "Black Foliage" by Olivia Tremor Control and tried to take a nap while my friend was taking a shower or something. I just closed my eyes and started seeing a ton of visuals and landscapes. It was pretty crazy.

But even sober music can definitely put you in a trance-ish state.

 

yeah man that is tripping... your brain gets set into the rythm of the song, you tune to its frequency. there's no need for your "self" to stop and step back adn say "that was good" or anything, because all that matters is the sound itself. you become the song. thats the shit man, and that to me is just as good as some awesome visual on 3 hits of paper. thats why i take lsd man, cuz it makes the experience of the music (and everything) so intense, so perfect and just so "mm" i don't know the word for it you just can't help but breath and bounce and be with the beat. listen to the song "echoes" by pink floyd.

 

ive also noticed i'm more capable of zoning on music like that after psychedelics... relating to the walking around listening to music... ever since i took psychs its like when i listen to certain types of music, if im not completely paying attention, it just adds a different mood or feel to the situation. like if i'm walking downtown listening to jazz, it just gives me this very downtown, urban, classy feeling, like out of a movie about the thirties. if im listening to some dead or something, i just get a feeling like everythings so happy and free and all the people i see just seem so awesome... i don't know, its like it becomes a soundtrack for whatever situation im in. anyone know what i mean?
