Nooo!! I'm being hippified!!! arghhh

Migrated topic.
Saying someone is the best in a certain field of art is against the whole idea of it for me. Art is subjective, everyone has their own standards.

Man, I used to HATE hippies. Now I'm blasting some shpongle while I finish up my final exams, this music is amazing!

My question to you is: What is your favorite group within the psychedelic music scene?

Pink Floyd.

skizm: much as I *love* that image, the nexus decided against image signatures.


Yeah, taken care of :)

Ozric Tentacles is good too. I just need to get a few CDs for my car. Premium Bose 10-speaker system BUMPS mayne.

There are a LOT of different kinds of music that are enhanced under psychedelics and/or that reference them....not just in the genre or 'psychedelic music'. In fact there is LOT of music in the genre of 'psy' that really isn't at all too....
DMT being so fractal, detailed and layered suggests to me a multiplicity of sound - overlapping and morphing, serpentine unfolding forms rather than mapped ones, multiple rhythms intermeshing and separating out again, big chords with a lots of different textures in them, wide frequency range with textual variation and clarity throughout it. Here is what I have been listening to lately:

Tool
Shpongle
Bluetech
Bassnectar
Ott
Ollie Olsen
Devin Townsend
The Necks
Dha
Sigur Ross
Radiohead
Spoonbill
Boards of Canada
Squarepusher
Pucifer
Portishead
Stravinsky - check out the Rite of Spring - psychedelic metal for classical orchestra written at the beginning of the 20th century!!!!!!!!!!!


But asked again in a few months time and the list would be different again (albeit with some stable culprits).

To be honest I have been a complete Shpongle slut lately because that new album is just so unbelievable and I can't seem to stop myself listening to it over and over. It sounded really completely fantastic on acid the other day...
 
while I agree with alot of your music choices, i just wanted to say
BASSNECTAR RULE! :D gettin intricate with sentences ... I kick it complex :D
 
Agree? Oh there is a lot of music I 'agree with' ie. share its worldview, like the idea of it, but that does not necessarily mean I melt listening to it. My favourite stuff is the music that makes something vubrate or enflame inside my mind and body, gives me the desire to move, dance, contort, to laugh, weep and come.
I forgot Amon Tobin. He is one of my big faves at the moment too.
Ps. shoe, yor avatar image looks more like what I see on DMT than just about any other graphic representation I have ever seen. Where did it come from? That designer and me must have visited some of the same DMT worlds.
 
yip.. Blue room is on disc one.

Its all about 'fluffy clouds' though hehe... I hadn't heard it in years, so I couldn't help but dance around the living room in a sheer state of joy. Fantastic!

The best thing is the cover is a big finger blasting off :) do do dodo do do dodododo the fluffy clouds... Defo one of my happy tunes.
 
I dont actualy know what its from but Im sure I heard it somewhere else. She knows how to paint a beautiful picture with words anyway... I can see that horizon in Arizona with fluffy clouds when I hear that song. Lovely
 
[quote='Coatl]I like hippies.

I wish it was still cool to be peaceful and nice to your fellow man... but those days are long past, now it's cool to have money, get bitches and drive fancy cars.

OMG coatl, thats the funniest shit i've heard today. You are very correct many tend to share that view now, but i don't think peace is completely out of the picture, even the ones who believe that eventualy find out whats really important. One thing i think causes that view is intelligence is on a down slide, if we educate people more we get better results.

whats a hippy?
hehehehe


SLIGHTLY STOOPID!!!!!!!!
get all their albums but the album Chronchitis is sooooooo goood
iv been listening to it the past ummm 4 hours or something on repeat
sooooooo spacey try it with some pharmahusaca

You hit the nail on the head Brother! What is a hippie? Honestly in my opinion I dont think people these days have a clue about what hippies really are.

I dont consider my self a hippie just because I have not had a hair cut in 14 years that does not necessarily make one a hippie.

Why no haircut you may ask? Because I use my appearance as a filter. What this means is that I encourage others to judge me based on my long hair and other stereotypical aspects. This allows me to filter out the bigots,rednecks ect who I have NO desire to interact with anyway! By judging me they have done me a favor because I dont need them just as they do not need me.

Just like Mama use to say to me "you do not hate anybody you just dislike them" a important piece of wisdom I will never forget


Peace
