Title: Favorite music to listen to while blazin/ trippin?
Post by: JohnKeats on December 31, 2011, 06:24 pm
The Contortionist is my favorite :) just about anything from their new album exoplanet, especially egress. i find that the whole progression from light jazz to chugging metal really intensifies psychedelic experiences.

Thoughts? Favorite music?

While smoking weed I'm generally into the classic stoner stuff. For example, some reggae (especially underground reggae - a lot of the stuff produced by Lee 'Scratch' Perry is brilliant). The Beatles, Pink Floyd, Led Zeppelin and the like are brilliant. Also some Marvin Gaye, BB King, Chet Baker and some blues/jazz/soul. There's a not-so-known Folk-Rock guitarist (who died in 2009 and since has became more and more famous) called John Martyn who's brilliant too.

I'm fairly inexperienced with hallucinogens, I've tried a few but not many times. Mainly because they're hard to get hold of in my area though, with SR I'll probably be getting more into them. In my experiences, although it's the expected and some would say clichéd album to listen to, The Beatles' Sgt Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band is a brilliant album while tripping. Revolver too, I think it was John Lennon that said somewhere that Revolver was more the acid album and Rubber Soul more the cannabis album.

King Crimson, Wishbone Ash, Emerson, Lake & Palmer, Uriah Heep and Pink Floyd. When I'm tripping with my noise-cancelling headphones on and listening to these guys, it's like every cell in my body is having synchronized multiple orgasms. Until, suddenly, I have no body and am launched into a higher dimension made entirely of good vibes and rainbows.

I couldn't help getting on here and plugging my favorite band. Opeth is great when you're stoned although i can't say how great they are tripping. Especially their concept albums with lyrics to figure out all the growling. Next time i puff might try some Dream Theater and see how they sound.

The music I enjoy the most while tripping are The Fall of Troy and Jimmy Hendrix.

You will LOVE Dream Theater while high. Listen to Scenes From a Memory, it'll be like watching a play.

I never did like extreme vocals while blazing or tripping, though. I can only enjoy Opeth when I'm sober enough to make sense of all the growling.

I think I like all you've already mentioned but wanted to say I love two great albums which I fully understood only through drugs. I know it depends, we all have somewhat of different taste for music but yeah, I didn't really get these albums before acid experience.

One is Animal Collective - Merriweather Post  Pavilion, it's very good when you're peaking on like...4 or 5 tabs of acid (I mean, those SR tabs which are claimed to be around 80-100mcg). Especially I like side B on vinyl (Daily Routine & Bluish) and definitely smoke some cannabis too while this. 

Second is MGMT - Congratulations, its amazing, like full trip guide. Literally, if you're not experienced and feel that you need a sitter for your acid trip but can't find a one then this is it. It's not for the intense part of the trip but best thing you can do, is listen side A and B before peaking and then C and D when coming down.

Didn't find any pictures of song descriptions on the backside of vinyl case but they are all like this one about the first song. -

"It's Working: Love? Or Confusion? Reality? Contusion? Subterranea or Sub-fusion. The Quest begins."

Definitely check this out, listen "It's Working" and "Congratulations" which are the first and last songs of the album. I'm pretty sure you'll understand the album is a full trip by itself.

Also, if you consume cannabis by eating and get more spiritual and peaceful high than by smoking then Congratulations is one of the best album through all the day.

But yeah, there are lots of music and for me it's the one of the most interesting aspects to think or discuss when combined with psychedelic experience.

And btw, Fleet Foxes - Helplessness Blues is pretty good a day after if you get that peaceful afterglow while sun is shining through you and by all that pure energy you just want to live and love.

My Morning Jacket, Pink Floyd, The Moody Blues, Queens of the Stone Age for a great groove, and Tool for when I feel like spiraling into depression.

Guys check out Sunlight Ascending. They're a mix of post-rock and shoegaze, really smooth easy listening :)

And gosh, hate it when I forget my passwords...
