The Site's Tripper Album...

Former MemberFormer Member Posts: 1,876,323 The Mix Honorary Guru
in Drink & Drugs
I propose that we compile a list of our favorite songs to listen to while tripping our heads off. We can have nice nature oriented songs that help you achieve peace, or songs that inspire wild visuals. I'll start the list off with:

Jefferson Airplane - White Rabbit

Somebody continue posting as many songs as you wish.

    Just on hallucogenics?

    To be fair, most of the time when I'm tripping I don't really think muchabout music. A few tunes I always think of as 'mushroom' tunes now are:

    Royksopp - Eple
    Hot Butter - Popcorn
    Spooks - Karma Hotel

    Because I remember them vividly from when I was tripping. :D

    The whole Hallucinogen - Twisted album is good, really trippy psy-goa trance.

    A bit of Chris Liberator (acid techno) never goes a miss on a couple of tabs.

    Normally I cant be dealing with music when on higher doses, but I did listen to some dark gabba once and that was top, real proper acid rushes up my spine.

    Who the hell are these bands!? I've never heard of them in my entire life, the names would be enough to put people off.

    I ain't done acid in years actually.
    But yes, I like headfuck music sometimes.
    My flatmate is going to that, personally I don't know if I could cope with 3 days of industrial music and weirdo's comparing body piercings and talking about wanking into envelopes.

    The Producer, Scorpio, Rotterdam Terror Corps, Wedlock, Paul Elstak and of my Deathrow Techno Tapes - gabber is good.

    I also cane an acid tune called 'Monkey Tennis' when I'm hammered but I don't know the artist.

    ...and any tune from the Jilted Generation album is always good when mashed - I have it on vinyl.

    I actually recon that an acid rush is more impressive than an MDMA one, or at least its more intense sometimes.

    The ones I've had start right at the base of your spine and wash upwards till your whole head is tingling when the tune peaks.

    You have to be in the right mood though, put some gabba on when someones in the middle of some deep introspective thing and you could well push then too far.

    Actually when I used to do acid, we used to listen to Ozric Tentacles, Hawkwind, Gong/Steve Hillage, Future Sound of London, The Orb, System 7 etc

    Yep, all except Gong - but I asked my partner last time we spoke about this and he said of course he knows Gong, looking at me like I was no longer worthy of being his girlfriend.....

    My favourite used to be Primal scream - Screamadelica, I did read an article about drug-influenced albums which said this album perfectly replicated the ectasy trip.

    I've recently been listening to Barrington Levy and some of his tunes are definately worth a listen if you're having a smoke.

    'Under Mi Sensi' and 'Here I Come' :yes:

    I like anything by the Super Furry Animals when I'm having a smoke, particularly their last album at the moment.

    Idioteque by Radiohead, without a doubt is my favourite. Also Lovely Head by Goldfrapp, Flaming June by BT and Comfortably Numb by Pink Floyd.

    I haven't listened to Ozric Tentacles for years. Not since I cut off my dreads and threw out my tie-dye t-shirts. :o
