    I find all indigenous folk musics to be the most spiritual.Naturally evolved,free from the trappings of stardom.Passed on from father to sun,in tune with with the real sorrow and joy of life...

    I can relate, although I have to admit it mainly works with live performances. Through my own speakers via a youtube video I can't help but feel the best of the experience is lost. That's why I find well (but certainly not over-) produced studio recordings of this kind of folk music still more appealing a lot of times than the raw live registrations.

    Me too, but mainly when I'm there. At home I prefer to listen to raw recorded stuff :p

    Infinite dreams I can't deny them
    Infinity is hard to comprehend
    I couldn't hear those screams
    Even in my wildest dreams

    Suffocation waking in a sweat
    Scared to fall asleep again
    In case the dream begins again

    Someone chasing I cannot move
    Standing rigid a nightmare's statue
    What a dream, when will it end?
    And will I transcend?

    Restless sleep the mind's in turmoil
    One nightmare ends another fertile
    It's getting to me so scared to sleep
    But scared to wake now, in too deep

    Even though it's reached new heights
    I rather like the restless nights
    It makes me wonder, makes me think
    There's more to this I'm on the brink
    It's not the fear of what's beyond
    It's just that I might not respond
    I have an interest almost craving
    Would I like to get too far in?

    It can't be all coincidence
    Too many things are evident
    You tell me you're an unbeliever?
    Spiritualist? Well me I'm neither
    Wouldn't you like to know the truth
    Of what's out there to have the proof
    And find out just which side you're on
    Where would you end in Heaven or in Hell?

    Help me, help me to find my true self without seeing the future
    Save me, save me from torturing myself even within my dreams

    There's got to be just more to it than this
    Or tell me why do we exist
    I'd like to think that when I die
    I'd get a chance another time
    And to return and live again
    Reincarnate, play the game
    Again and again and again and again




    Bolded part is especially why I posted it in this thread :2thumbsup:

    I guess the most spiritual sound for me on this planet is the ocean's waves......

    Hedningarna - Ukkonen (Thunder God) Finnish:

    Ukkonen ylinen herra
    mies tarkka taivaallinen
    tempaa tulinen miekka
    mustan käärmehen verinen
    tulisen tupen sisästä

    iske tulta ilmarinta
    välähytä Väinämöinen
    selvälle meren selälle
    lakialle lainehille

    Iski tulta tuonen ukko
    löi louhta luonnon ukko
    tul ol tuas tuisahtanu
    säken tuosta säikähtäny
    poltti polvet poikaselta
    sekä rinnat neitoselta

    English translation:

    Ukkonen, you highest master
    mighty old man of the heaven
    now pull out your sword of fire
    stained with blood of the black viper
    pull it from its fiery scabbard

    strike a fire, father of winds
    send out lightning, Väinämöinen,
    over the boundless open waters
    over the waves of wide and high seas

    The master of death, he did strike fire
    sent out lightning, the wise old man,
    the flame in fright struck up in the hearth
    in alarm the sparks flew yonder
    burned the knee-caps of a young boy
    burned the breasts of a young maiden

    Honestly, If it comes to Music I would have to say Anything by tame impala. But the sound of rain late at night in a forest on top of a tree house is awsome.

    Shpongle...

    Discovered them right around the time I discovered psychedelics and both were revelatory. I find the music spiritual in a traditional sense yet speaks to the digital age as well and is not above having some playful or more musically dynamic parts either.

    From praises to God and folkloric tunes about spiritual and mythological stuff of any country to raging blasphemous and chaos worshipping black metal. What's the most spiritual depends on my mood.
