Do you have a specific taste in music or anything goes?

Shpongle, Hallucinogen, Ott, stuff like that. Future Propecies' 'September' always hits home. Shpongle's 'The herb garden' is a trip in itself.

If you like warped freaky stuff with a lot of Cradle of Filth / Marilyn Manson samples and demonic references (it's pretty specific but I don't want to waste your trips with stuff that really hits my sweet spot, but doesn't seem to do that for most people)...
Tryambaka's 'Blender' and 'Sympathy for the Parents' and Mentalecho's 'Hitech Blues' are on every time I trip at home. Especially Hitech Blues. It's pretty niche but godawesome trip music.

I typically just listen to afrobeats and reggae. What about you?

I like instrumentals. The genre doesn't make too much of difference to me as long as it's groovy. I like it when the artists can tell a story or "sing" with their instruments.

Ok yeah! They have a few different things going on there. Nice!

Here are a few I stumbled across recently. A smash wedge from my preferred pallette:

Ancestral Machines by The Sorcerers

Dallas by L'Eclair

This Is Just the Beginning by Hugo Kant

Discern/Define by The Poets of Rhythm

Cosmic Salami by Favourite People

Reblow Your Mind by Gov't Mule

Strange Seed by Emapea

Mi Chocolatina by Flowering Inferno

Brune Evening by Vadim Erudaci

Yithian Time Travelers by Black Sky Giant





Here are a couple with lyrics:



You May Be Blue by Vetiver

Cabin Fever by Slomosa

Beautiful Scarlet by Rare Bird

All the Time by Ghostwoman

Black Box by Automatic

Stonecutters by Dope Lemon

Electric War by Little Barrie

Dust on the Wind by The Velvet Sundown

Diablo by Mt. Mountain



I can keep going, but my playlist is too damn long.

Yes, also on mushrooms. How much are you taking? I usually take 1.5-2g.

Perhaps it's because I live with roommates and I don't feel comfortable dropping my guard around them. So I go outside. But petting the dog is always a fun activity. Our pets become so majestic. It feels like I can understand them better and be on the same wavelength when tripping.

Any music recs for when tripping? It feels like I never have any good songs. I do enjoy silence but not inside my room, nothing profound happens there.


Yeah, animals are great. Even more so in combination with mushrooms :grin:
Usually I take a dose of around 5g dried cubes and then two hours later some more, so I guess that also explains why I feel it would quickly become too much in an uncontrolled environment.

This is the playlist that I usually play while tripping: https://open.spotify.com/playlist/1fesPsAT13ser1RbqNQeTw. It’s a mixture of different genres that all work well for me on mushrooms. Trippy electronic, ethnic, a cappella, shamanic, you name it. But all pretty chill. It’s also more than 30 hours long, so always new songs and no need to skip a song after hearing it for the third time during your trip.

Some of my all time favourite songs to listen during a trip:
Acid Pauli, Nu - 12
Cesária Evora - Petit Pays Chateaux Flight remix
Four Tet - Two Thousand and Seventeen
Jon Hopkins, Ram Dass, Fast Forest - Sit around the fire
Cheb i Sabbah - Shri Durga
Marc Planells, Karuna, Mooji Sangha - Dance of the Mystics

Also take a look at this thread if you need musical inspiration: https://www.shroomery.org/forums/showflat.php/Number/28548599. That thread is a gold mine!

Not sure if it’s your cup of tea and I wouldn’t associate it with groovy, but when you mention singing with instruments, I immediately have to think of the sound of a duduk: https://open.spotify.com/track/2gOlCaNp8b9a0rhzowG0Ew. So much expression. Such yearning. I love it.

First grow vibes - Just got home from holiday travel to find a stack of packages:  my new Presto 23qt, agar, LME, borosilicate bottles, and petri dishes.

Talk about a kid on Xmas. Let the saga begin...

That's awesome, Nokumana! Savor the moment! Those opening days into the hobby are special!


Anyone who may have received a spore print from me, I'm curious as to how they have worked out for you. Silence is golden, but if there was anything way off about them, I would like to know. I'm confident in my printing practice, but ya never know! Anyway, let me know if you've had a bad experience and I'll make it up to you.

I gave it a quick listen through a few of the tracks. Yeah! I might like that for a change! Thanks for sharing!

Okay, well the saga has hit its first speed bump but this was to be expected. Setting up the new pc (presto 23 quart canner) and carefully reading through the instructions, and I planned to do a test run tonight with my agar bottles just filled with water so I can get a feel for how long it will take the unit to cool down when I do a real run and need to pour plates.  I have discovered something that worries me:  the manual warns against using a heat source greater than 12,000 btu's. My kitchen stove is a Viking range which delivers up to 23k to 25,000 BTUs. I worry about damaging the PC and creating a dangerous situation.

Just wondering if I'm overthinking this or if I should be buying a hot plate instead. Would using one of the smaller burners be safe? I have no way of knowing how many BTUs each individual burner is capable of putting out.

Definitely stay under the 12k btu. Can you run the burner lower? Each burner should have it's own btu rating in the manual. Maybe see if you have one that tops out under that number.

Seriously, just plan on overnight after you turn the burner off.

As for burner size, my feeling is that, given the size of those 23 quart Prestoes, it's better to use a large burner on the lowest setting than it is to use a small burner on the highest setting. I've never gotten that far into the weeds of actually looking up btu output, but my gas range has some absolutely monster burners. Using them judiciously, and finding the sweet spot where I can set the dial and not adjust any further throughout the run, hasn't done any damage to my prestos in the past 5+ years.

@GH: Yep. Thanks for this reply and for confirming my fears. I'm sorry to take up bandwidth on this forum for something that I probably should be figuring out for myself but I got impatient and frustrated because I was so stoked to get started!

I discovered that the range includes an 8,000 BTU burner so I can use that.

@BT: I had the same thought about an overnight run, but doesn't that work better for grain jars but not for agar? The agar has to get poured when it's hot so if I let it go overnight it might cool down to the point where it's not liquid anymore. What would I do then? He did back up in the microwave? (Serious question)

Frickin' first world problems.  Oooh my Viking range is to hot for my mushroom hobby!  🤣🤷‍♂️🤦‍♂️

You can re-melt solidified agar in a microwave. Do it for 30-60 seconds at a time so you don't have a dangerous situation. If you have an immersion circulator (for sous vide) you can set a 125 °F water bath and cool the bottle in there so timing is less of a concern after you've reheated it.

Edit to reiterate that you can just not use the burner at max output (as B Traven noted above).

Don't feel bad for talking about your problems here. This group is full of helpful folks that are willing to help.

Also, that brand of stove is very nice! I assume you like to cook?
