Psychedelic Trance

Trance music. Well, the simplest definition for this music is a music that gets a person into a trance. Sounds simple? Well, the implications of this are very interesting. A trance is something that is a personal experience. Everyone who is in a trance is in a world defined by his mind. The unity we all feel in the trance scene is not a unity while dancing - it is the unity of people who share something special. We all see eachother enjoying the music and feeling a great, wonderful spiritual experience derived from the trance we are in. We share the same love, everyone for his own reasons, but we are united in the thing that we enjoy the music in a way that most people don't know how to enjoy it. We enter a world that is half a dream, half the outside reality, travelling between the story in the music, the amazing depths of it and the crystal clarity that nothing else reaches.


Needless to say, with trance music which has a lot of depth and a lot of things working together at the same time(on many levels), with the music probably being the most intense enviromental music known to man(the change in the feel of the track is the story, not the change in the notes or sounds, those are just tools), it is very easy to fall in love with this music once you get to see past the droning monotonic beats(again, they are a tool, not the creation).


Trance and its drug abuse/spiritual experiences. When you hear a trance track(or any other music for that matter), you hear it sometimes clearly, noticing every minute detail in it with clarity that you never had before. And even when the sound distorts - your mind FEELS the music in a way that is much more powerful - without all of the psychological and mental barriers between the music and the mind itself. I've already mentioned the qualities of trance as a music. This fits very well with the activity of the psychedelic substances, as can be easily seen by anyone who read this entire(extremely long, sorry) text. This is why hearing trance on psychedelics is a mind-blowing experience. And that's why people take acid(LSD) at parties. Not for hallucinating and seeing pretty colors, but rather for an intense inner journey that can't be defined to people who haven't been there.


This is also very dangerous with high dose trips - when you reach the highest level of psychedelic drug activity, you are at the highest risk of getting stuck on a trip, for one of two reasons - either you are having a really bad trip that totally strips you of your will to return to the world, or sometimes - you decide that you don't want to come back. You stay in the new world that has been opened to you. So, in summary, people don't do psychedelic drugs, because they are dangerous to the mind. You are opening the full forces of your brain, both concious and subconcious, and it's not always that easy to handle. But if you decide to do psychedelic drugs, you can achieve great enlightenment about your past, present and future.


And if you decide to hear trance while on such a substance, prepare for one intense and psychedelic ride. We live in a society which is not open to such substances and easily label people who try and make new dicoveries with themselves as druggies, low lives, outcasts. Places like Holland, cannabis can be consumed legally and yet only 10% of the population actually consume it. Why? Its as simple as'All rules are meant to be broken'. We make laws which everyone wants to break. We bring out curiosity and the anxiousness to try these substances which then lead to abuse. I firmly believe it us up to one's choice of what he/she would like to do with their lives and not be trapped and bounded by laws which suggest how you live your life.
