It's weird, Swedish, minimal, warm, jazzy and absolutely mindbending during the right circumstances.

I didn't read that, but I wanted to add that I think you're a little too harsh on infected mushroom. They may not be as good as the music you prefer.. but that doesn't mean they're not good in our north american ears. :O

Well, your psy scene is very different than ours.

To each his own! That, of course, does not mean I won't bitch about them.

I'm checking out the stuff you've suggested.. Would you say this style is good for salvia tripping? I've been listening to a lot of RDJ's selected ambient works 2.. anything of this that would be like that?

Yes. Both Ott and Younger Brother loosely fits into that category, or rather 'psyambient'. Though Blumenkraft is sort of a dub experiment.

Another awesome act that should not be overlooked is Shulman.

Shulman: Soundscapes & Modern Tales (Shaffel 2002)


1. Small grey creatures
2. New paradigm
3. First came the stars
4. Take a walk outside
5. Elements
6. Avant garden
8. Shiogo
9. Aion

And the sizzling new album...

Shulman: In search of a meaningful moment (Aleph Zero 2003)


1. Inner selves Sample
2. The unexpected visitor Sample
3. A magnificent void Sample
4. Consciousness revoked Sample
5. Random lifelines Sample
6. Mushroom therapy Sample
7. Another paradigm
8. Instability Sample


If you're after straight up ambient, I definitely suggest Vidna Obmana. This one first and foremost:

Vidna Obmana: The surreal sanctuary (Hypnos 2000)


1. Infinity
2. Lamentation
3. The first coil
4. The profound isolates
5. Jewel of the underground
6. The fragmented dome
7. Flame

Its always a good sign when cd's have 7-9 tracks 
Personally all the psychedelic/goa trance I've ever listened to are Israeli, the best country in this genre in my honest opinion!
Get "Retro - 10 years of Israeli Trance"... then we talk music...!

Yeah most of the traditional psy is out of Israel, though we scandinavians have some very well respected acts in that style.

The Progressive and Minimal genres however, were not only spawned in Scandinavia, but we also have all of the top artists still to this day.

This is nice, seeing as there's lots of opportunities to catch their live acts and maybe smoke some herb with the artists.
