Culture - first time lsd: Music recommendations

[m3lon]

Hello everybody.


New to this forum and LSD noob. oh, and excuse my english.


I have a 2 questions that for some of you may sound stupid. Me and few of my friends are planing to take LSD for the first time. We are preparing everything cerefully.We don`t want even smallest thing toruin this night.


I`m a tranceaddict and my question is about music. Should I stick to what I like or should I get something else. Please recommend some lsd friendly music.


and finally, while tripping will I be able to change songs on my mp3 player, or should I prepare a playlist.


thank youEdited by: m3lon

my advice would be to make a playlist of all you favorite songs.

also, try adding some grateful dead and phish if you're into that music at all. the beatles are great for LSD trips.

SWIM has found at the peak of a high dose LSD trip that he can not read
a computer screen for the life of him. the words all swirls together
and melt and shit sometimes. make it easy on yourself.

Unless you are going to be dosing pretty high, you'll be ABLE to select
songs even at the peak. I'd still recommend a preset playlist, however,
because it'll let you just sit back and relax. I have to admit that I
normally just switch from CD to CD so that I can hear exactly what I
want to hear next.



Pink Floyd, Radiohead, Flaming Lips, etc. are all good. If you're into
trance a lot more than psychedelic rock, however, then stick to that.



Happy tripping

If you like trance, then some Goa or PsyTrance will be
mind-blowing, especially if you like to dance. Also, something
ambient like Aphex Twin or Shpongle for the return to baseline.

[mariecurie]

A friend of mine who is really into the LSD/nitrous combo is into
trance and he highly recommends that if you're comfortable during the
trip and there is nitrous around...



It tends to make trance music just go insane. Not really a big fan of
the stuff personally, but I can definitely see why it attracts people.

thank youguys for advice


Already got, Goa Trance , Pink Floyd and some Greatful Dead.


April 16 is the magic date, location: litle summerhouse far from civilisation next to the woods and the lake. Stroboscope, huge sound system.Number of people: 9 (7 first time LSD). I CAN`T WAIT!!


I`ll try to post atrip report.


We don`t often party like this but when we party we party hard.


Last time we hadextasy + MJ + alcohol.


Did anybody mix Lsd and extasy? Not that I want to do it, just curious.

The beatles - Lucy in the sky with diamonds.

[Pinkavvy]

DieForm (hope i spelled that right) is industrial/trance techno that is a must for triping.

also, even if you don't normally enjoy this kind of music, I would recomend you listen to some greatful dead and some phish for anybody's first LSD trip.

Trance is kool, I personally like Drum N Bass when I trip, Drum N bass is just really kool dark and twisted euphoric music. I love it, and I love my trance sometimes, plus some funky breaks. If you ever start listening to drum n bass, get Dieselboy's Dungeon Masters Guide, it's Drum N Bass at it's best!!

if you want to know what awsome music to listen to when high is,

jeanne micheal jarre - equinox

there is like 6 consecutive parts, that go in order. it is awsome

whether acid, or dxm

it is fun

[GDxCAT]

i highly recomend the grateful dead.

[motorhead]

Pink Floyd is a great choice, especially their first album featuring the extremely psychoodeelic and plainly fucked up musings of Syd Barrett- "The Piper at the Gates of Dawn"


Wicked trippy awesome

For me the impact of set and setting is more obvious on lsd than
anywhere else. Thus planning ahead -- as you are doing -- is a
wise move in my opinion.



The idea of playing what you like makes sense to a point. For me
lsd is about going places I don't usually go and while the acid alone
will likely accomplish that, the music you choose can direct where you
want to go. Stan Grof in "LSD Psychotherapy" has some interesting
comments on this topic.



My favourite piece of music on acid beyond all else is Berlioz' Harold
in Italy. Having it come on and hearing it for the first time
right after listening to some Metallica opened a very interesting space
while on lsd.

Man you gotta listen to Jimi Hendrix!
