music to listen to while tripping

listen to this song keeping the myth of thinking that you turned into a glass of OJ in mind.

Built to Spill

"you feel...
on the verge of something real
on a roll, and built to spill.
this is how you'll always feel
it's no big deal"
​

 

The perfect comeup song and also when things take a slight turn for the worst.

Just so so smooth: Nat King Cole, Nature boy

"the greatest thing you'll ever learn is just to love, and be loved in return."

Pork I'm also a big fan of Built to Spill and was first turned onto them when I first got into Modest Mouse. Good stuff!

 

Modest Mouse is the bomb! Never thought about trying them while tripping tho...

 

To be honest I'm a bit hesitant to to trip to MM because I have such an emotional connection with a lot of their songs. Certain music gets almost a bit too surreal when I'm tripping, for instance during my last trip when I was listening to The Doors. What a ride that was.

 

Try watching the old Disney Classic Fantasia. It's a trip straight.

 

modest mouse is great tripping music in my opinion. i was listening to them in the alaskan woods on a juicy hit of LSD

after i had met the secondary percussionist's parents on the cruise


if you like modest mouse, check out Pinback. they aren't THAT similar, but that's what the person that recommended them to me compared them too

yeah? I did some doors last time too. The solo part (well where the lyrics stop) in the middle of Riders on the storm, just never ended! Once he came back I forgot it was the same song as before

 

Pink Floyd - as per example:-

Some of my favourite albums on acid are Daydream Nation (Sonic Youth), Electric Ladyland (Hendrix), Loveless (My Bloody Valentine), Bitches Brew (Miles Davis), Remain In Light (Talking Heads), Marquee Moon (Television), Raw Power and Fun House (Stooges), Mezzanine (Massive Attack), Zuma (Neil Young), Enter The Wu-Tang: 36 Chambers (Wu-Tang Clan... obviously), Wowee Zowee (Pavement), The Piper at the Gates of Dawn (Pink Floyd), Kick Out the Jams (MC5), Madvillainy (MF DOOM/Madlib), Kid A (Radiohead)... there's so many!

The first time I dropped was about 16 months ago at an outdoor music festival featuring Pavement and Broken Social Scene, then I did it again two months later at a Rush concert. Last week I tripped at a Portishead concert... the only downside was that the opener was a drone metal band; not good music to trip to. Portishead blew my mind, though. And later that night I listened to Bjork's Biophilia which had just come out.

Portishead - Wandering Star
Bjork - Crystalline

 

This was the first song I listened to on my first serious psychedelic trip and it set the mood *perfectly*

first song off their first album

Now this is just intense!

Dominique Leone - Nous Tombons Dans Elle

 

This is what was playing the first time I experienced LSD.
At 3:51 into the song is when with eyes wide open all I perceived melded into a vast sea of white and I was no longer "here" nor was I any longer "I".
I just was.
Upon returning I knew the world I had existed in was not the one I returned to, but one much richer and full of life had supplanted it. What I had blindly excepted as "real" now seemed but a plastic imitation, a "shadow", of what truly lies behind the veil.

I don't think we're in Kansas anymore Toto.:sunny:

that was 33 years ago. It's amazing some of the things I remember from that journey as if it were yesterday.

 

Spiral Beach. They were a local band from Toronto that broke up a couple fo years ago. They never really expanded beyond their own scene but at their height they played to crowds of a few hundred. Their live sets were just KILLER!

Spiral Beach - Kind of Beast
Spiral Beach - Voodoo
Spiral Beach - May Go Round

This was the best quality live video I could find
Spiral Beach - Sour & Devour (live)

And here's Doldrums, the solo project by Spiral Beach's guitarist, Airick Woodhead

Primus, Primus and more Primus! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z3IDWmr4nLY ... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qm3Ux37Ga8U https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_6e7dkjieYM&feature=related Sorry posted on my PS3 and cant start new lines.

 

I spent my youth twirling stereo sounds with Relayer, but CTTE is a great album as well

 

Shpongle is really intense!! Someone listens to radiohead!!?they are amazing on L, I love all of their albums

I also think Beatles are great. Sgt peppers. And they're album revolver, is nicknamed the acid album, because all of them were doing acid during the writing and recording of it!

 

I've actually been compiling a massive 'trip playlist' recently. I have select cuts from the Flaming Lips, Animal Collective (and Panda Bear), A large chunk of Spacemen 3/Spectrum (droney rock made for just this purpose), Octopus Project - Hexadecagon, Some Pink Floyd (that's a given), Some newer MGMT songs, Modest Mouse - Moon & Antarctica, Tracks from Brian Eno - Another Green World, A chunk of Flying Lotus (mostly instrumental avant garde Psychedelic Hip Hop), Teebs - Ardour (a more chill/restrained version of Flying Lotus), Some Cloud Cult, Yellow Ostrich - Fade Cave EP, A bunch of Akron/Family (hippie neo-psych pop/rock), a few tracks from a band called Battles (exquisite music for a good body trip), Some Neil Young, Kaleidoscope (uk), The Chameleons (dark 80's guitar psych), Super Furry Animals, Spirit Spine - Jungle Bridges, Emeralds - S/T (this album got me into drone not too long ago), and some tracks from Paavoharju - Laulu Laakson Kukista (eastern influenced neo-psych folk. Probably the most unusual band here but it's haunting and beautiful once you get into it).

Last but certainly not least is one of my absolute fav. trip albums - McDonald & Giles - McDonald & Giles. Two members from King Crimson going all psychedelic and whimsical on your bitch ass. I consider it to be the opposite of "In the Court of the Crimson King" in mood and subject. The highlight of this album is the "Birdman Suite" a 21 minute trip with several movements and a triumphant and beautiful climax, the majesty of which I can hardly put into words. I consider it to be the best album that any of the KC boys ever did.

Well that's my best of the best at the moment. I hope you guys dig it
