If smoking pot makes you a better musician, does smoking synthetic pot make you a better MIDI musician?
Epic Panic Session? Sounds like a good name for a band. The first song that I produced for karaoke, backing track and all, was Rita Mitsouko's La Taille du Bambou, which is actually a spoof on the porno film Blowjob Lessons. Catherine Ringer was originally a porn actress, before she became a pop star, and not only is she not ashamed of it, but she actually seems to be proud of it, as evidenced by her latest single, Je Kiffe Raymond. Anyway, I smoked some K2 and many long hours at the MIDI keyboard and staring at Pro Tools, and I remember looking up and wondering where the hell I was, at one point. The rest of the world had just melted away, which is a good thing sometimes.
I doubt it. All the synthetic stuff has always just made me feel stupid so I don't think it would be conducive for any sort of musical production, but everything effects people differently...
