Absolutely!!! I will NEVER trip without music. There may be times during the trip where I do take my headphones off and sit there for a second. But it's usually to get and wrap my head around how far the music just took me after that song and kind of integrate it into that headspace.
I prefer music.. 11/10 times.
I was listening to Terrence McKenna's instructions on how to trip. He definitely opposes the use of music and the like. He considers it to be a distraction and I can somehow relate to that. But still, I'll try with music next time.

And that's where you screwed up.
Follow through is vital, otherwise the trips will revisit these things repeatedly. It's not just "advice" they're giving you, it's "direction." It's never failed that if I followed those directions, future trips improved. It's like this baggage you have to shed before you can actually pass through the gate.
edit - and BTW, fuck McKenna. Follow your own instincts.

Right and right. I will improve on this. I really regret, that I did not integrate that. I often forget some parts of the experience too. I'll take more care with that.
