Also, I doubt music can create quite the same 'high' as chemical drugs, but that doesn't mean there is no place for so called digital drugs.

got it, love it. i think it's way more of an experience when you couple it with the visual aspect. (chip visualists, anyone want to try and recreate this in a live setting? please? )  smile

ive already made video pieces that do this, 10 years ago..they arent chip, but ive been known to use them in visuals

The only album that lets me reproducibly wake up refreshed and relaxed when I sleep to it is Stars of the LId - ... and Their Refinement of the Decline. That feels amazing every time though.

That is such a damn good album.

you're goddamn fucking right. in the last several years my favorite records have either been the craziest, most violent stuff, or the most beautiful quiet stuff. sotl are winners.
check boxhead ensemble and geotic and keep it going.

It's extremely clear and lucid, and it will leave everlasting impressions.

It's a really safe, legal way to get high. I do it every night.

i hear if you do that white noise trick while covering your eyes with ping pong ball halves and lying down, u can get the same feeling as being on lsd. apparently if u eliminate all sensory stimulations, your brain creates it's own aka trips the fuck out.

I couldn't think of the name of this, but my friends and I tried it in January.  It didn't work for me but supposedly I didn't do it for long enough.  Some of my friends started seeing things though.
