lumpi Posted October 29, 2007 Posted October 29, 2007 What is your favourite non-electronic psychedelic music? Non electronic doesn't mean there mustn't be any synths in it, just not electronic in the traditional sense, well, you know what I mean. For me it's without a single doubt "Tiamat - Wildhoney". I just gave it another spin the other day after over a year and was completely overwhelmed by it's dense soundscapes and rich atmospheres. I had totally forgot about it.This album has shown me places no other music was ever capable of bringing me to, dark places, divine places, places of mystery and wonder... places to get lost in. After this album every other music will sound pale, shallow and uninspired, to me at least. Anyway, to cut it short, can you name some of your most admired psychedelic albums? I urgently need some more music like that... :posford: Quote
Gnome Posted October 29, 2007 Posted October 29, 2007 The production is insane and the guitars are divine. Quote
Tatsu Posted October 30, 2007 Posted October 30, 2007 For me it's Marillion - Missplaced Childhood, it's an awesome psychedelic pop album from the 80ies. The singer has an amazing voice and the music is just divine. The most famous Marillion track is on that album: Keyleigh. Most likely the only track anybody here might know. Quote

I urgently need some more music like that... :posford: I'd say electronic music is more about structure then anything. Theres plenty of rock stuff that is most defenitly rock that has synths in it (Someone mentioned tangerine dream). I think I might check out Tangerine dream... I'm a huge dimension 5 fan and from a few listens Dimension 5 looks like a very much reformed version of it. Any comments about their best albums or eras etc? Quote
Bahamut Posted October 31, 2007 Posted October 31, 2007 I think I might check out Tangerine dream... I'm a huge dimension 5 fan and from a few listens Dimension 5 looks like a very much reformed version of it. Any comments about their best albums or eras etc? Wow.. good times await you. I envy you. Best albums 1969-1980: 1. Rubycon 2. Ricochet Phaedra, Sorcerer, Stratosfear, Force Majeure, Encore, Tangram Best tracks: Rubycon Part 1 & Ricochet Part 2 (both in top 5 all time best electronic, no discussion possible) Quote
DaZeD Posted November 1, 2007 Posted November 1, 2007 Maybe you'll like Nile too, some Egyptian influenced death metal, most tracks are very atmospheric aswell, or the project of the lead singer Karl Sanders. http://www.discogs.com/artist/Nile+(2) http://www.discogs.com/release/438732 I think it's pretty psychedelic, dunno about you ofcoarse...

fosku Posted November 1, 2007 Posted November 1, 2007 Hmm there's so many good ones, it's hard to choose. But I'll try: Amon Düül II - Phallus Dei Tangerine Dream - Phaedra Donovan - A Gift From A Flower To A Garden Pink Floyd - The Piper At The Gates Of Dawn Pink Floyd - A Saucerful Of Secrets Justin Heathcliff - Justin Heathcliff Cream - Disraeli Gears Pink Floyd - A Saucerful Of Secrets Magna Carta - Lord Of The Ages King Crimson - In The Court Of The Crimson King Led Zeppelin - IV Bob Dylan - The Freewheelin' (is it psychedelic?) John Fahey - Fare Forward Voyagers Arzachel - Arzachel Kyuss - Welcome To Sky Valley Tool - Lateralus Jefferson Airplane - Surrealistic Pillow Flower Travellin' Band - Satori Ozric Tentacles - Waterfall Cities The 13th Floor Elevators - The Psychedelic Sounds Of The Doors - The Doors Well also Callisto - Noir, Red Sparowes - At The Soundless Dawn, and everything by Godspeed You Black Emperor. Though I'm not sure you can call them psychedelic... Quote
cray3 Posted November 1, 2007 Posted November 1, 2007 Pink Floyd The Doors Jimi Hendrix :posford: Quote
lumpi Posted November 4, 2007 Author Posted November 4, 2007 wow, shit, that's quite a lot to check out. I already knew the usual suspects like Pink Floyd, Tangerine Dream and what not. But there're quite some new ones to me, will check them out. Thank you all Quote
Prio Alea Posted November 5, 2007 Posted November 5, 2007 I'm bad at genres... is Sigur Rós considered psychedelic? Also I find some Beatles tracks very psychedelic. Quote
saturn Posted November 5, 2007 Posted November 5, 2007 Ozric Tentacles - Eternal Wheel One can hear rather plainly that Shpongle was not without influence from these guys... Quote
Snapinho Posted November 6, 2007 Posted November 6, 2007 I'm bad at genres... is Sigur Rós considered psychedelic? Also I find some Beatles tracks very psychedelic. I like to think so! Quote
gurutrance Posted February 11, 2008 Posted February 11, 2008 No body speak about Camel and Iron Butterfly? :wank: Quote
