The one and only time I played guitar on LSD I was at my peak and I was clean, constantly shifting scales, keys and what not.
I felt like I was playing my emotions.
Ever consider that maybe you thought it was good, but to a sober person it probably sounded like absolute shit?
No, there were people around me saying that it sounded amazing.
Oh, so you were all high
No, I played guitar for 5 years.
Go on my channel and listen to my songs.
Stop judging me.
MegaSexytimes lol
Taking drugs to make music to take drugs to.
Yep...
My perfect prescription
spacemen!
We are people of culture < 3
Didn’t know this was such an iconic quote I thought this was underground, love spacemen 3 a lot tho
“Today a young man on acid realized that all matter is merely energy condensed to a slow vibration, that we are all one consciousness experiencing itself subjectively, there is no such thing as death, life is only a dream, and we are the imagination of ourselves ...Here's Tom with the Weather.”
-Bill Hicks
Adam Jones enters chat...
Prying open my third eye
This gave me chills because I really felt that
Wish the news really like that lol
This documentary would've been SO much better if they analized psychedelic rock (Hendrix, Cream, Tame Impala)
Raul Mejia or pink floyd.
HAHAHA ANALized
13th floor?
mötley crüe
Mgmt are modern day psychedelic heroes. Tame impala cant even compare.
I've definitly tripped on weed once, i was listening to Tame Impala's Lonerism just was completely gone into my own space universe. i turned the lights out in my room and i saw stars moving and flexing to the beat of each song. I tripped so hard one time i went blind and when my vision came back i looked in the clear blue sky and i saw purple flowers in the sky purple lines flowing on the road like a water stream. You can definitly trip on weed bro.
it's been 7 years but what kinda weed you smoking bro
i’ve tripped on weed too
Bruv what kind of weed did you smoke? What a silly comment Lmao
Yea you definitely need to get a new plug🤣
"You are the banana on the floor" - words to live by.
I believe a child's mind is a psychedelic mind.
I remember being sick when i was only four or five and the fever dream state was very similar to an acid trip to the point where i wonder if i accidentally got dosed back then
@@viagra5207 could have..
Idk how one remembers that…
I’ve also thought of this too
Yeah I 100% agree, a child’s brain is basically on acid until like 11 months old, and then half on acid until about 3 years.
interesting, ive always felt less human on shrooms and more primitive with increased sensory inputs. i guess thats what a childlike state is.
i love how there is such wisdom in average young people because of hallucinogens.

I am 54 years old and I have been smoking marijuana regularly and doing psychedelics like psilocybin mushrooms and occasionally LSD for over 40 years now and the only real issue or difficulty that I have ever had and still tend to have with psychedelics is not the psychological effects that they induce, but the somewhat uncomfortable physical sensations, especially now that I am older, that are always gonna be an inevitable part of the coming up to the peak of the whole trip like the nausea, body rushes, heart pounding harder, elevated blood pressure, sweating, etc., which could probably be alleviated by taking a Valium or a Xanax, perhaps, but then again I've also always felt that if I were to do that it might somehow also inadvertently abort the actual trip itself as well, so I'm sort of at a loss as far as what would be a viable solution. Any sincere, intelligent and reasonably coherent suggestions would be gratefully appreciated, folks...✌
I know what you’re talking about. Always remember HYDRATE HYDRATE HYDRATE, and even a week before your trip. Have a very nice balanced diet, lots of fruits, greens, ya know the usual. Also stretching can help a lot. Qigong meditation as well.
What this guy Michael said, and intentional controlled breathing, basically mediate and calm yourself because it’s literally ALL in your head
Just microdose
The other day I was on 2C-B and Stravinsky's Petrushka was seriously the most phenomenal and colorful music I've ever listened to. I recommend listening to your favorite music under the influence of a psychedelic, you really get to explore it and "get in it" more than usual.
In the proper setting, psychedelic use isn't abusive. And most psychedelics are physically harmless. And there are many reasons and motivations for taking them, not just making good music or freeing the mind. They can also help you to understand the mind and how it really works if you focus on that- they lend themselves to any experience really.
Psychedelics augment/overload all perceptions but this is particularly true for music, which already possesses great emotional sway. This has not been stressed nearly enough in regard to potential treatment therapies.

To me, THE Music that resonates with the realms of the psychedelia comes from a late Italian medical doctor called Gianluigi Gasparetti.
He is more famously known by the moniker Oöphoi.
chinthavishttan thanks!
thank you sir. ive only started my first video, so im not going to say anymore. but this is wonderful and it *does* speak to me as well. thank you, thank you, thank you.
As a composer, poet & musician I can attest to the bond music, magic & the psychedelic experience, even long after the trips. The creative aspects musically & reveal sacred ties to both music for the creator & the listener. These plant medicines, are sacred, healing technologies, and have big part in traditional rites by or even as the astonishing sense of a mystical state of Being, one gets from these entanglements & Ecstasy of new perspectives of the ranges of Consciousness known as a "Trip". Just subjective empirical experience is everything, even without a Shamanic culture paradigm, the mystical feelings get through. Ah...likely ya'll know this shiz, but for those......
The affect of these boundary dissolving effects such as in vogue level of materialism threaten establishment values, paraded with the other collective & personal post-modern psychosis caused by hang overs from the dark ages. A time where even natural sciences such as Cosmology & Physics were long suppressed by the "the Roman Church", & such is still carried out by all the big 3 & most other Male dominated, Paternalistic, hierarchical religions (despite the likelihood that psychedelics are likely inspiration for most philosophies), if only in their early sprouts. Even LSD is made from Ergot, a kind of mold found in Rye grains, thus are the likely fact that when people wound up high in medieval times, surely thought to be possessed or mad in some fashion. Tim used to say...'LSD sometimes causes extreme fear & psychosis in those whom have never taken it...'
The drugs do not make you a visionary, they allow visions in via a short cut, so you can use these creative & spiritual growth, & personal healing, after, long after the experiences. When done with the safe, pure medicine and a correct, effective dose in a session with a Shaman-like therapist, or an able assistant, they are very safe. Then one can be guided (often this ain't the case & that is fate) know how to let go & not fight the process. Some people should not probably not take them, as the same with any medicine or 'drug', though I am speaking about plants, all of which all should be legal... & not able to be patented, outside 1 exception LSD 25.
DMT is found in many plants world-wide, is also synthesized & is the most the most natural & profound psychedelic voyage, as it is produced in the Pineal gland throughout our life & huge doses released at death (Di-Menthol-Triptymine) & is in found in 1 of the 2 plants that make up Ayahuasca. One is an M.A.O inhibitor allowing DMT to be taken orally, (as the body breaks it down quickly in the stomach, as our bodies produce DMT in mass, in the Pineal gland). This is "historically known" to be a visionary ritual healing Shamanic tradition in the Amazon for over 2500 years (prehistoric dates would be ancient), as is Psilocybin found in mushrooms is used in the same fashion in Mexico to this day also along with Mescaline for cacti in the desert southwest Native Americans.
This entheo-botany holds tremendous tools in psychological treatment, self-actualization, to Ascension. To some they're party drugs only & yet they hold so much more as well, simply not explored, in a quiet, dark setting. It should be a free mind, so long as you ain't shooting people... Sanskrit early writings speak of Soma (no not as in Brave New World, by Huxley, which is an awesome piece of literature) as some medium allowing visionary states. Some plants cause altered States' yet this doesn't make them a psychedelic, they may be a delirium & cause rather disturbing trips....
That baby crying effect was freaking awesome....i really thought like beyond conviction that a baby really is crying in my neighborhood and didn't realize it was a background sound effect until i rewinded and replayed the part over and over again.
My anxiety, depression, occasional insomnia, and lucid dreams give me free psychedelic trips. I make some weird trippy art without any drugs.
One name just one name
PINK FLOYD.
by the way which one's pink?
Aman Kashyap pleb
Mikhail Chesnokov pink floyd is only pleb if you only listen to dark side of the moon
May be pircupine tree also
No buckethead dude
"See Emily Play" -- The Pink Floyd "Dance The Night Away" -- Cream "I Happen To Love You" -- The Electric Prunes "DCBA 25" -- The Jefferson Airplane "Tomorrow Never Knows" -- The Beatles
Kevin Parker of Tame Impala should've been in this...obviously...
+Malik Shakur Jacco Gardner as well...
for real!
I always like to listen to that song they have called the moment:)
My name is Ian Vargo, I created original music and did the sound design for this video, I'm glad you guys are digging it! My band Ugly, Ugly Words have a few tracks in this documentary, you can DL and stream our stuff on our soundcloud page.
it's so difficult to always be calm, when things appear so integrated beyond any complete explanation. we should all be so lucky to experience things beyond our expectations and understanding of reality. Being a quantum activist isn't for everyone, but I find great comfort in the empty spaces.
Hey thats me @12:25 .. dragon hats make people smarter.. true story. Glad to be a part of this well done little movie about my favorite subject, getting trippy.
wonderful video.. i luv it!!!! i actually had an experience the other day walking down the street listening to trance. the music had dropped and began again, i felt a rush of cool tingling go up my body like cold water on the inside. when the sensation contacted my face i just smiled!!! i wasn't on drugs of any sort... it was pure bliss and it was the music!!!
How often were you doing drugs.. and when we say drugs I hope were referring to psychedelics. For me it is an every now and then thing.. because the experience is SO amazing that I can look back at it and reflect on it even a couple months after.
and I feel you man.. even with weed, like, after a bowl with my friends, they all talk about stupid shit and gossip and I'm the one who becomes fascinated with everything.
I think the only kind of music that's truly psychedelic is like ambient music and that kind of stuff. I don't want to listen to this god damn hardcore dubstep shit when I'm tripping like wtf?
Joshua Lavigne shpongle Dorset perception and around the world in a tea daze. both amazing songs haha. written for tripping out
I'm not even sure what this is supposed to be about. Some of these people seem to think that when you trip out, you hear shit. Maybe i've been doing it wrong but I don't straight up hear music and shit when i'm high. Music and noises just sound better.
Joshua Lavigne LSD and psylocybin both make music in your head or that you can hear, idk how to describe it haha
Gavin Bain Well I done both. Only music I hear is what i'm playing.
Joshua Lavigne oh really? Dose? It could also vary from person to person. Just make sure the acid you drop is real LSD and not an rc haha
Music with 2C-I and DMT is beautiful. It's like a new metronome for the mind.
Is anybody gonna talk about the “strawberry ate a cat” dude? Talking about hearing a baby crying & then a gun shot & “no more baby”? 😂
That’s just good ole Tim. Listen to white fence
0:23 Holy shit, is that a Tool calendar?
There's so much more going on besides music during an LSD experience.
To a Musician , Music is Everything to them. Life is Music. Find your purpose .
I feel like what this video is really telling us is that all these things, sex drugs & music, are really all about dissoultion of boundaries; maybe all of our great thrills and memorable moments are rooted in the dissolution of boundaries. The manifestation of the sub-concsious within the conscious. o____________0
Very fascinating yet frighting. We can learn so much from these experiences, yet unfortunately, most of us look in fear and only fear.
Absolutely true! - 5:26
Agree! - 5:40
HaHa Trips)- 11:00
what track is this at 14:30 ?
both MDMA and cannabis have psychedelic properties. I sometimes get open eye visuals on both, almost always on MDMA and even stronger on MDA. I have only experienced a rough MDMA comedown once and that was after a night of bingeing. Visuals are not the only part to the psychedelic experience though. I recommend watching "the 5 levels of the psychedelic experience" by Alexander Filipe according to the vaults of Erowid. Peace.
Ronald Nicol they're technically both in the psychedelic drug class
I've only gotten closed eye visuals on weed but every now and then when I'm listening to spotify on my TV the album cover looks like it's stretching
I LOVE HOW 4:56 the growlers music is on it ahhhh my babies
2:01 casually getting interviewed next to an 808
try: GONG-Angel's Egg; Steve Hillage Fish Rising: Magic Sound Fabric: Freedom Star and after you get through those- John Coltrane" Ascension". Sun Ra" Space Is the Place ( blue thumb): Stockhausen Stimmung;Sternklang. These are some deep end pieces
I've actually never heard of any of these people but they all make good points and every kid who is thinking drugs are the key to creativity should check this out.
i know its hard to take this seriously without them
Ohh my god, you have me doing 18 years of school and listening in to these wonderful amazing experiences. I feel suppressed!! :((((((
Talk about hitting the nail on the head.. great documentary.
i trip like fuck with the album wish you were here....specially Welcome to the Machine
I like writing while overtired, the loopy mindset is definitely freeing.
Absolutely great video
When he heard the baby get shot, the laughter is sometimes hard to control when you do some heavy stuff.
Tim presley is a fucking cool dude.
love the ending!
And out of nowhere did I guy just in the back of the guys video with the car up behind him
I can feel the music when I am actually dizzy for some reason... thats psychedelic music! its the "dizzy" music.....
my guess why you can relate to it its because one of the symptoms can match up to it, brain releasing specific biochemicals that creates same sensation, and it is probably same. dont know tho
+Tomas Loktionoff yeah I agree..
i freaking love this documentary, well done pitchforktv .
Psychedelic experiences are similar to being in a dreamlike state, but it's really more like the opposite of a dream.
When your tripping you consciously perceive everything as strange when the world isn't unusual at all, while when dreaming you later wake up and realise just how strange things were.
Scientist still don't know why we sleep, let alone dream.
Really fascinating speculation. I think the power of sound waves and music transcends anything we can even wrap our consciousness around.
when the baby cried it tripped me the fuck out
not to mention that Daedelus plays a variety of instruments.
DJs are people who play back recordings- technicians. there are indeed some people who bring creative artistry to bear- and some are wildly creative. There are recording engineers who are also very creative- but they aren't musicians either. Niether are producing music . There are musicians who DJ,and engineer.
You and I are the same!!!!!! I think it might have something to do with being an introvert. You don't find it unnecessary to speak unless it's something of meaning and passion.
Seven years later and we have 160bpm riddim/psytrance hybrid
No comments about The Growlers? Very underrated band, everyone should check them out. Listen to Hung at Heart or Hot Tropics
I had a big smile in my face while watching this video :D
Very nice short doc. Wish there was more
Now this is absolutely incorrect, about being too lazy to learn an instrument. I'm personally not too fond of electronic music, but it does indeed attract a large crowd that involves a lot of the music with drugs. And yeah it doesn't have strings or keys but whatever they use is an instrument within itself. And Tim Presley is an incredibly realistic dude and is aware of these things. He may come across incorrect or wrong in some people's mind, but he knows what he's talking about.
But yes your argument is valid, about involving more "psychedelic" musicians.
Thank you, Mr. Hofmann.
I can't believe Flylo wasn't in this, he would definitely have more than a few things to say on the subject
Chillstep is great music for blissfully trppin
Was not expecting to hear The Growlers.
I'll just imagine the music that would have enhanced the interview segments so much.
Not all dealers online are scammers or cops🤦🏻♂️ @myconuel on Instagram has been my plug for a while now 4 successful shipment and no issues, just like it never happened, fast and discreet, don’t be fooled they are smart and know how to grow mushrooms, very skillful.

The first Pitchfork video I thoroughly enjoy, no offense. :)
Thank you for the upload!
9:18 song?
did you figure out the song yet cause I can't find it
Gamble - TOKiMONSTA
great topic to make a film on, I wish it was longer.
ill give 5 stars, i love it.
i smoked out a 16 old drop out with d.m.t for the first time and the next week he learned how to make d.m.t in his room. that 16 yo drop out was so grateful i shared the gift with him that he taught me how to make it and now im living the dream. p.s. this 16 year old kid never tried any psychedelics his entire life besides marijuana.
Damnit we need a playlist for some of these songs. Anyone know whats playing at 09:18 ?
TOKiMONSTA- darkest dim ft Gavin turek
Is there another version of that song? The one in the video sounds a bit different, a bit more psychedelic...
Is Tokimonsta the asian girl in the interviews?
Savannah Swor Ah found it man, the song is Gamble by her.
oh yaaaa thx dude haha. and ya shes a fkn badass, I was pleasantly suprised to see her in this vid
No problem fellow tree-hugger XD
@ 4:56 that's the Growlers, theyre a great modern band, everyone should check em out
"You are the banana on the floor"
word
hell yeah bro!!! golden teachers are great! Great yielding strain.. grew a few batches a while back. so glad to see a post like that. ;D
thanks dude
Thanks for doing this, you guys rock
This helped me find all kinds of marvelous band
a different ego will develop, meditation and becoming ego-less though sobriety, you know how you got where you did, psychedelic launch is one that you don't know the mechanics of, especially since the feeling can change may times because the ego that is destroyed and reforms changes little by little or drastically.
2: 17 on the left. Daniel Lopatin lol.
13:04 mutual benefit... lol
you listen to the music by experiencing the perspective of the music itself.
Cheers for the tip 1 and a half tracks in and enjoying :)
Dabs are concentrated THC wax things that are extremely potent.
Fantasia (Walt Disney) was released back in the 40's to re-introduce America to classical music. But Rock & Roll was right around the corner. So, the movie didn't do very well.
HOWEVER, when they re-released Fantasia in '69, the acid-heads just ATE it up! It ran in the theaters for the next 3 years!
this makes me happy
I think the comedown depends on a person and how pure the MDMA was. Of course the visuals aren't the only effect of these substances but it's the most noticeable effect. The visuals have always been almost like sign and symbol of psychedelics. I've seen the '5 levels of the psychedelic experience' and it's a good watch. Would recommend it for everybody who has interest in psychedelia. Thanks for a great comment, peace and far out!
They should have use real psychedelic music for this , like the most pure type of electronic music in this style , psytrance!
cringe
I feel you. Stay creative.
can i have that 20 min back please
omg so high i was freaked out the whole video but after that dude fell out of that chair WOOOH was i crackin up
if you want an experience listen to Pretty Lights new album color map of the sun ;)
If you need a spiritual breakthrough or an ego death, recreational purposes? mental help ptsd, anxiety, adhd, all you need is psychedelic and a good reliable source to purchase and they have shamans online 24/7 to assist through your struggles, check @don_maximo7 page on Instagram for quality psychedelic products
"i heard a baby crying... then i heard a gunshot... and i didnt hear the baby crying anymore..." hahahaha omg that was great. 11:00 funniest part
Great Info
my opinion toward listening to dubstep for awhile not on drugs makes me feel souless; therefore, i cant appreciate where the music industry is heading. rock n roll is where its at for me.
ooh...this looks riiight up my alley
you should link/credit some of the animations used in this particularly the one towards the end where airick is talking
awesome thanks man!
acid was the best thing i ever did in my life words cant describe how much better my life is now
