listen now!!!!!

Finally Moving used to get the plants finally moving!
My DMT playlist consist of Pretty Lights, Emancipator, and Tycho
Tycho - Dive is amazing

I generally like to have music playing 90% of the time when I am indoors... and even 30% of the time I am outdoors. This is irrespective of whether I happen to be tripping or not.

Nature is NOT silent, so even music free blast offs will have a tapestry of sonic cues. Basic rule for outdoor spice vaping is to find a beautiful yet safe environment. Stay away from cliffs. And even rivers or other bodies of water if you don't have a sitter.

But this is about music... so:

I have a very wide taste in music, and I think that there are pros and cons to nearly every type of music when talking about the smoalked spice experience. Generally if you breakthrough far enough, whatever you were listening makes no difference... as others have said, the sounds of hyperspace take over.

BUT, on the way up or down... plus in the pre-flight psych up or the post-flight afterglow... a comforting and familiar song with enough trippy elements will be of immense use. The stark emptiness of a silent space can make it all that much more alien IMO. Very nice to have the air filled with good vibes.

This also has an effect on the kinds of entities that may or may not show up. Certain musical vibes will call in certain energies. At the very least, a very uplifting or spiritual song will serve as repellent for dark entities. Even music that would normally seem overdone or corny can be amazingly helpful in this regard. Try listening to some serious gospel music on a blast off... seriously. If Mahalia Jackson or Sister Rosetta Tharpe can't chase away your demons... no one can.

Another interesting thing is that if the entities REALLY like what you are playing, they will take it and improvise on it... rather than tune it out, you may find the jesters will treat you to improvised verses to your favorite songs. Solos will stretch out into impossible lattices. I have found that (for instance) the hyperspace beings can do an awesome David Bowie imitation... either that, or Mr. Bowie has graced me with his hyperspatial presence to sing me impromptu and highly personal versions of songs like Starman.

Whatever your taste in music may be, I recommend you ditch your dark and gloomy stuff... save your cold electronica, hide your death metal, and don't listen to emo or gothic. Finding something truly uplifting and inspiring to your soul can mean the difference between a glorious transcendental awakening and some ominous alien abduction scenario... or worse.

My 2c.

This. I'll usually play have a playlist setup in a specific order. The first song I let play mostly through. It helps get me going mentally. As HF said....it's like a "psych up" of sorts.

I love electronic with a good build up. Nothing too heavy though. Anything for you that really hit's the chords emotionally will take you far. There's a definite synergistic quality with music/sound/vibration and the dmt experience. I would say if the right music is played, it can have a VERY intense facilitative effect throughout the experience. It's like food for hyperspace.

And that goes with what HF was saying about the entities. If the entities are diggin the music, they seem to get amped up themselves. Like.."It's partyy timee!" It's like they grab the music and make extremely beautiful, complex visions out of it.

I will never forget the one time I did pharma and I was sitting in my computer room, and I put on this electronic song that I'm extremely fond of. My computer room was nearly pitch black besides the glow from the computer screen. The whole room was flowing with that multicolored archetypal strcuture, but after I had put on that song the room literally turned up MANY notches in intensity and brightness...the whole room lit up like a circus. Out of the flowing ether came these entities that were dancing all over my computer room. It was like I was surrounded by these highly evolved holographic breakdancers of the next dimension.

Taking the spirit molecule for the first time in the next week. Feeling a little anxious, figured that would be normal for a newbie. I have done a fair bit of research and no matter how much is done, you realise you still have no idea what to expect... exciting.

I read that is sometimes preferred to listen to music. I happen to have a bit of love for ambient music, and were wondering of the community's suggestions for music and what you all listen to while exploring?

There is already a whole post related to this if you look
I personally enjoy listening to the pure sounds of reality with no music to interfere with the emotions of the experience, or listen to the Gayatri Mantra whilst entering the space, get a really deep spirit mood feeling. Psytrance takes you into some really alien like experiences also, although i wouldn't go playing psytrance and running 1000 miles an hour for my first journey

Goodluck friend ~~MC~~

Have you taken other psychs before? I've found the music I enjoy on those transfer to dmt enjoyment fairly easily. I've noticed I don't really like music with empty space within the recording, lots of reverb.

Um, as far as suggestions? A few bands I like are youth lagoon, my bloody valentine, bowery electric, sweet trip, and verve.

Binaural beats/tones was really interesting to listen to during a few experiences.

Idk, just pick something you already really enjoy good luck and safe travels

Gas - Pop #3

Boards of Canada - Kid for Today

Les Baxter - Oasis of Dakhla


My time tested faves.

The first time I smoalked I listened to this; http://youtu.be/5hBifBKsH5g and also Soulfly ix which I can't find on YouTube by itself but it is at 1:27:03 of http://youtu.be/bUgIglfcUbw this video. Both very nice, mellow instrumentals compared to soulflys normally pure unadulterated metal music.
Also I mean... Ozric Tentacles - Spirals In Hyperspace: http://youtu.be/OqrTBUJKrUE

My thread was moved to a post in this section. I didn't see this section otherwise I wouldn't have made the thread, I have just finished reading through the thread and now I understand what music is usually listened to.

Nooo, I wasn't thinking of listening to something that crazy for my first time.

The only psychedelic I have taken before is shrooms, but have been in altered states of reality during sessions on MDMA or ketamine.

Some of the suggestions I have heard really fit my taste.

Someone might appreciate this.

I would suggest choosing the most mellow and calming music (that isn't depressing) you know for your first time. I haven't gone further than the "waiting room" yet but from my experiences, the quality of the trip is highly responsive to the music playing in the background. My first trip had a very chaotic and upbeat song that I can't remember was playing in the background and it made the experience move at warp speed and it was very overwhelming at first (but I loved it). The second time was far more gentle because the songs in the by were mellow.

I go for no music at all. Just silence.

Incredibly powerful symphonic/electronic overture

BUMP! Consider the Source is awesome! I saw them live several times. Some of the most talented musicians I've ever seen! Some of their songs are more ambient, and some may be a bit intense for someone who likes a calm/meditative experience. But all of their music will surely stimulate the creative mind.

I think evolution is empowering to any musical track, not just for the sake of the psychedelic journey.
Melodies and harmonies, complex chord progressions, instrumental depth and an exploration of the entire stereo space, music that inspires you to "feel" even without being under the influence of anything other than that song.

Another route might be to stray away from traditional instrumentation and experiment with different sounds. Binaural tones are very popular; other tones that are engineered to stimulate specific areas and functions of the brain- alpha, beta, delta, and especially theta. I will try to upload this track that I downloaded a while back. It's a shaman singing a style called Kargyraa over some theta and binaural tones. For me, the discovery of this song was the discovery of my own ability to sing Kargyraa. It's fucking magical.

I was listenin' to this tune https://www.youtube.com/...;list=PL34A01E377A4527E2

What about sounds of Hyperspace? The music it plays sometimes is so complex and perfect that it defies any explanation.

I prefer ikaros and a shaman's voice. It is actually as intense as it gets once the breakthrough begins, so a chant is most important for me. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UI_8YIOBuDQ
