I think what he meant was its great how were actually discussing music right now, and not talking shit about music we don't like. Take dubstep for example, everyone is real quick to start saying how bad it is and listing all the reasons why they think its so bad. Not really having a discussion about it.

But they could be the same thing as Shpongle how you think it would be good but then you hear it tripping and you're just alittle disappointed.
expectations tend to work like that, in my experience at least

I can understand that. I was a huuuge Dead fan for a while. While sober, I was always thinking something along the lines of: "man this would be great while tripping!"
And then I listen while I trip, and have to turn it off because I have no desire like I thought I would.
I guess we let our imaginations get the best of us.
I always feel let down(when tripping) when I know a song is going to play, it just loses it's impact imo, thats why I like to make really random playlists.

One of the greatest bands I've heard while tripping is The Books. Hit the nail right on the head of how mushroom trips are.

thanks! it's not my favorite album from them but the art is sweet. I think my favorite is feels, maybe just because of banshee beat. It's hard to choose though, all of their albums have different emotions that I associate with them.
THE BOOKS! hell yeah they are an incredible group, very unique. BMSR is amazing as well, nobody sounds even close to either of those two.

Sung Tongs might be my favorite. Or Campfire Songs perhaps? I like they're old acoustic stuff because the have the same ambient atmosphere unique to them but done all acoustically, which shows serious talent. I didn't like Meriweather for a long time but it's great. I know they have a new one but I haven't heard it yet.

I can understand why people don't enjoy shpongle. First time I heard em I was like "Uhhhh ok" but once I started listening to their whole discography the more I started to enjoy them, and then after listening to then while on some acid, the music just takes on a whole new perspective and clicks. Every song has elements that pop out while you're tripping that you wouldn't hear while sober imo.

aside the fact its music made for tripping, as a musician Simon posford is a musical ge.ius... the mastery this guy displays and utter command this guy has over music is incredible, he's like the electronic beethoven. there are plenty of other psy acts but few come close to replicating a psychedelic experience (which would be damn near impossible!) through music. the guy is a fucking freak of nature and i think his gift is coming from somewhere far away. freaky stuff.

I find Shpongle to be a little more 'musical' (for lack of a better term) than lots of brain melting music. Don't get me wrong, I do see the musicality in electronic music..but IMO Shpongle seems a little more organic. The album 'Nothing Lasts...But Nothing Is Lost' is the one that turned me on in a big way.

and I feel they definitely produce some of the best 'psychedelic' music. I also approve of the message they seem to be broadcasting via their music, personalities, interviews, and all the rest. They deserve the hype and support they have been receiving. 
Their aura truly supports the "one love" motif.
