It's a word I throw around alot without giving any thought to what exactly it is I'm talking about. Is it a sound/genre/feeling/mental state? Is recreational chemicals use the only way to properly understand it, or does it serve as a replacement in the absence of said chemicals? Does it have anything to do with drugs at all?
I suppose when I use the word I'm generally refering to something that has a kind of transcendent quality to it. Music that leaves you in a state of bliss without having to contemplate too much what is happening. Maybe a completely egoless musical experience, if that makes sense. Which I suppose means that in my experience, at least, drugs have nothing to do with it, but rather your ability to let music take control of your concious mind.
Eh, reading over what I just wrote kinda sounds like a load of new age psycho babble. Oh whale. I"m totally serious.
What do you think?
