Hey yall, not sure if this topic is welcomed or not but just thought i would share a link to my favorite tunes to listen to while dreading my head or others heads, as well as just my favorite tunes in general, enjoy.:cheers2: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MSTQUGtW7kI&feature=related https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Mdq5ogkOnQg https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S9eYtTVfGJU&feature=related https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eeGsOrzbHAg&feature=related https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Cu_Xv8-XM1I&feature=related
no offence but that sounded really boring theres much much better music to listen to while dreading...and since dreading is a lifelong procedss any music u listen to is great music to dread to i really dont know what u mean by good music to dread your head and other ppl's heads to do u mean great music to backcomb to? if so i guess that would be a minimal distraction from the pain but i dont see why thats good music to drewad to i couldnt even listen tio the whole songs..
Soaringeagle, its personal preferance, sorry if im boring, but its what im into, some may like the grateful dead (as i do) some may like to listen to rap (As i dont), just thought id share a bit of who i am with yall, sorry if ya dont dig it but i cant plse everyone, as for dreading to it, yeah its relaxing to backcomb to, its also what i like to smoke a joint and sit down,quitly play with my dreads and ponder life and spirituality to. also i am a dj and like to spin ambient/psydub/down tempo/ chillought and up beat stuff like psytrance/goa trance and progressive trance. The festivals in bc are loaded with dreadys that are open to all types o music, so i thought the forum would be likewise,I just felt like sharing what inspires me on my dread journy with others ,Perhaps help others understand who this sativa charecter is, and i always found music a neautral ground to do so. im not offended i can understand how someone may find it boring, its all a matter of perception. Anyway sorry if this is just wasting thread space, but to me it means somthing. Perhaps i will add more charecter to this thread by asking you all what your inspiration is on your dready journy, what keeps you going through the rough days?
im only listening to the first song just now, but i like it. im into videogames and i can feel some similarity to this and sounds i hear in the virtual world. i guess that helps me appreciate it.
myusic i like for dreading to (or living life to sinbce the 2 tend to happen simultaniusly) http://rainbowtribe.net theres alottas great stuff on there..not every one though but most i enjoy then theres these guys whjo are freinds of mine http://www.myspace.com/iyahniarkestra oh and these guys rocked and were really insopirational the 1 starts with a kid playing harmonica..fast forward past that if u want.. the second one they actualy played naked, but was lil too dark to tell sorry the vids came out so dark,, but crankl em up loud and enjoy http://vids.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=vids.individual&videoid=16426211 http://vids.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=vids.individual&videoid=16426498
I guess I'm a boring person becuase I liked the music alot. And I don't do drugs, so peeps can't say that's why I liked it.
people get really mad at me alot when i say i cant stand the dead too but i gave up on most comercial music long ago threw out my radio and pretty much wont listen to much unless its live realk has heart and soul and a message electronic crap i just find so mindless and empty lotta the popular stuff i think is just so regurgitated..mase solely for mass apeal with no real purpose of expressing anythinmg real so i tentd to seek out my music in places where names are unimportant where megarockstars dont exist and the songs are being sung solely for the joy of the singing hell my bro in law today had the radio on i have no clue wjhat he was listening to..but the singer (if u can call it singing) sounded like someone grabbed his throught and yanked out his voiceboxx and the guy was screamming in paiun through a gurgling hole in his neck..i really had no clue why he found that noise appealing..i found it nerve wrenching ive been blessed to know many amazingly talented musicians and many of the most talented ones would rather sing on a stereet corner for chanfge (both the coin variety and the social type) then ever play a stadium or club to me musicsa about passion and soul and exprewssion, not just popularity and proffits there arent too mamny mainstrweam musicians id call good especialy these days
Thanks for sharing a bit about who you are! I watched your links...and even though I cant really get into it, I respect all music and what it does for people. Personally psychedelic/trance/ambient stuff freaks me out! I feel like Im on a bad acid trip or something when I listen to it! lol. Heres some stuff I love listening too while playing with my dreadies or just chillaxin..... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nQlOLARxC_A https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MpPGneZo6bM https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=juKh1-pxTms https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aMBgSfQI49E https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Vjizt4Ixt6E https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ayk_qQw0XZg
Agreed. I haven't listened to a radio in years either purely because mainstream music doesn't relate to my life anymore. Given, my music tastes are extremely wide. I like rock and metal and most things in between, I also like to crankout 90's pop like Britney sometimes. I draw lines at dance music genres. I occassionally tune in to kerrang and MTV2 but still, the music they play now doesn't relate. I liked the first link in the OP some nice relaxed stuff there.

alright, my favorite music to dread to... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6eXBwZGnI4Q https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yU_JyGBDeIc https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gua-gz3Pzaw&feature=related https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VntFEWF8I8A All you need is a hand full of these songs and a stereo as big as mine, and there is no falling asleep there my friends! But what is chaotic for some is meditation for others, im strange like that.
