Favorite trip music!

By far the most epic song I have ever heard while tripping balls on mushrooms is The Prophet Song by Queen.

I have a 4 people coming over in a week for a big old shroom trip and I'd like to get a playlist of good trip music together, any suggestions?
What's your favorite song/album to trip on?

The best song to trip to, hands down, is a song (not suprisingly) about tripping on mushrooms, this is THE quintessential shrooming song:
Deep Puddle Theme Song by Deep Puddle Dynamics
the entire album was GREAT to trip to, but this was the highlight of the album...
I had it full blast in my house so I could hear it wherever I went...its more than creepy to say the least..

im more of an atmospheric ambient spacey type music person.... top five space out artists
1. Sigur Ros- preferably ( ) <--- if you dont know, ( ) is the name of their album hahah. icelandic goodness 2.Cornelious- i probably spelled this wrong. but check him out 3.Mum 4.Mogwai 5.Johnny Greenwood's Bodysong...its actually his score to a film about the human body. Takes you on quite an auditory adventure.

definitely some shpongle, look 'em up if you're unfamiliar with them, some very good psychedelic music, and of course some grateful dead, and some pink floyd and some yes would be quite good

Awesome I'll check it out on Limewire!
The first time I did shrooms I put on Dark Side of the Moon, which turned out to be way too intense for me, I kind of wigged out a little. That was a great trip though!

BTW that Deep Puddle song, the first time you hear it, you should probably be tripping, or atleast stoned out of your mind
it inhances the experience greatly
This girl I know heard it for the first time stoned, and at the end she was crying from being so creeped out by it...

Man, I love listening to Shpongle. Each song has its own unique sound and it feels you greatly. Made for trippers. It's an ambient, higher-plane exploration atmospheric type music. Atleast what it made me feel like. Look it up.
Any music works really; and I LOVE watching videos of live bands playing. All of the lights, makes you feel great. Pink Floyd, Beatles, etc work well.

anything Sigur Ròs.
Other good trip albums: Godspeed You! Black Emperor - Lift Your Skinny Fists Like Antennas To Heaven Explosions In The Sky - How Strange, Innocence Shpongle - Nothing Lasts, But Nothing Is Lost Thom Yorke - The Eraser Mogwai - Come On Die Young Modest Mouse - Moon & Antartica; also Lonesome Crowded West Björk - Homogenic Future Sound of London - Lifeforms
Really anything works. Believe it or not, A Perfect Circle's Mer De Noms proved to be absolutely amazing on a high dose of mushies among a few friends on a foggy September night. We had it blaring in the house, the windows open, and we sat out on the porch listening to this album... it really set the feel for the entire trip. Another album that surprisingly blew my mind was Radiohead's OK Computer. Again, sounds sketchy but trust me, if you were a fan of that album and haven't heard it in a long time, take a solo trip and listen to the whole thing. Throughout the whole album I was saying to myself, "They fucking HAD to be tripping to WRITE this shit!!"
Anything will work. But more often than not, especially if it's a solo trip, I'll go with Sigur Ros. All of their albums go very, very well with an eighth of shrooms. I haven't found anything that reached to the emotional/spiritual depths that their music does. My favorite of theirs might be Takk, because it puts me in a very peaceful, very happy state. ( ) is also great, but it has a darker feel to it. Which sometimes is more appropriate.
Anyone who hasn't heard alot of Sigur Ros, I highly encourage you to acquire any of their albums, in full, and take a trip with them. They will have you crying and laughing all at once.

Well, I guess I will copy/past this time, but I'll also add "mushroom" by kingston wall for obvious reasons:
I will never tire of evangelizing space rock, seems like very few people in the states are super into it, and it's fucking fantastic. So, here goes:
Older stuff (shhhh... some of it is krautrock): Gong, Hawkwind, Arzachel, Pink Floyd (of course), Can, Amon Duul II, Brainticket, Ash Ra Tempel, Arthur Brown's Kingdom Come, Eloy, Nektar, Here and Now, Yatha Sidhra.
If you've never tripped to the radio gnome invisible trilogy by gong.... Well, I'm not sure you've ever really tripped
Newer stuff (shhhh... just 'cause some of it is from the 80s...): Porcupine Tree (the older stuff is a lot more spacey than the newer), Ozric tentacles, Dream Machine, Secret Saucer, Giobia (one of my favorite psych albums ever, and that says A LOT for an unknown band's first album), Negative Zone (very reminiscent of early floyd), Acid Mothers Temple, The Spacious Mind, The Other Window, DarXtar, Ullulators, Nukli, Shom, Earthling Society, Oresund Space Collective (huge selection of free jam mp3s on their website).
Whew, I guess I'll leave it at that right now. But seriously, just about every one of those bands will blow your mind. Many of them (almost all the newer ones) have myspace pages, so you can check out some tunes for free. But be warned, then you'll want to buy all their albums and you'll be poor like me.

grant fucking green....................
Ya, grant green.
I have said that a thousand times on this site, and 2 or three people have thanked me via pm, and nobody else seems to have read that shit.
Its cool though.
I dont waist my time with music threads much anymore, and nobody seems to appreciate the the posts I make in such threads.
Herbie hancock?
I dont fucking know.
Listen to some Tool while tripping(a band I really do like).
I dont care, listen to a tool and ravi shankar "mix cd" for all I could care.
I love music so much, but im done acknowledging other peoples music recommendations and nobody even uses the internet to try out this music I have recommended.
Musically, I dont sense that a bunch of true listeners reside here.
Just find some lame dj type? Maybe that would suit you..............
I wouldnt listen to a DJ of any sort unless you payed me.
So ya, I dont know......
Grant green george benson Herbie hancock The dead sun ra on the Clavinet ravi or anushka the Pharaoh's
I dont care.
SO many people with the same question and always the same answer.
Lots of common folks here actually.
SOrry I dont like Sigure ros much. I do like to react to the recommendations above.
Sigure ros sounds like someone pissing directly into my ears for the most part.
I can love a few songs by them, but I generally would never listen to them aside from afew songs.
They are good. "See how I reacted".
Nothing worse than a topic followed by a bunch of lists.

thanks for the suggestions. Sun ra is pretty awesome. i'll have to check everything else out when i get money or clear disk space (unfortunately, i'm not sure which will happen first...)
but i hear ya. every time i see one of these threads i see the exact same suggestions from everyone. maybe we just need a sticky that says, "we all fucking know sigur ros, boards of canada, shpongle and classic rock are great when you're high/tripping."
I want to come in here and find something new, and it rarely happens. of course, the most frustrating is finding something new and no way to listen to it other than ordering a disc unheard, which i've only done once. it was floorian's "what the buzzing", $3 on amazon and worth every penny and then some.

Pink Floyd's Shine On You Crazy Diamond off of the Echos greatest hits CD. I seem to like that version better than off of Wish You Were Here album.

shpongle, yes amazing music. would do anything to see them live. not only is that music made for tripping, but is also partly made by one of the biggest trippers you may ever come across... raja ram. and on the shpongle note... i love tripping to psy-trance, progressive psy, minimal, warm morning psy. a few names to check out - mantrix, richie hawtin, decoy, siaqua, alex smoke, extrawelt, sleeparchive, shulman, hallucinogen, aphex twin, james holden, antix, carl craig, 1200 micrograms
