Drugs and Production

[heavy beats]

just to see how the majority of the folks hear it.... I like to test drive my music with a bit of smoke.

i have only recently started doing my own stuff, so half, maybe 3/4s of the stuff your all on about is beyond me, however - I like working with another mind of equal ability as you bounce of each other..

stella / fags / coffe - job done ;)

I haven't done any drugs for almost 4 years, besides drink. Occasionally I'll have a bit of spirits to relax the nerves, but for the most part I'm such a perfectionist that I can't imagine doing tunes chemically-altered. About 90% of what I work on never gets finished or put out because I think it sounds like crap when I listen later, so I'd think it would be even worse writing stuff while you're off your rocker. Just the way I see it though, probably works well for some people.

I personally prefer to be sober and either wide-awake or incredibly tired (the mid-afternoon slump/siesta is a bad time). I say wide-awake or sleep-deprived because it usually puts me in a more focused and/or relaxed mood...which is when my best music comes out. I have close friends who need to smoke their brains out because they can "focus" better. That's cool I guess but I also watch them try and sequence a song and it takes them twice as long. The music also tends to lack depth sonically as well. Whatever tickles your fancy though, as long as you have some responsibility.

The whole point of my music is to make it sound just as surreal and trippy sober as it would when you're actually f.u.cked up...so I guess it's a good idea to be sober when keeping that concept in mind. Sometimes I'll come home from a party or a rave in the early morning hours after partying all night, that's also a really enjoyable time to make music as well. I don't go out to parties that much though, so those times are few and far between.

straight as a pole.

but I guess its whatever works for the individual.

I once sat up for 14 hours solid smoking crystal meth and made a tune from start to finish - after having no sleep for about 24 hours beforehand. It was a weird kinda acid tune, some of the weird sounds I came up with through sheer experimentations at the time are some of my best yet and I found I really concentrated on each little bit of the tune in miniscule details, but very very quickly... It just put me into such a singular headspace (I was practically obsessed - didn't even get out of the chair!)and that was a unique experience for me, but I wouldn't want to do it all the time, as I'd probably end up freaking out :lol:


Most of the time I'm totally straight or I will smoke a scoob and happen to be playing around - I don't set specific music time, just whenever I feel inspired.. and I might maybe smoke 2 - 3 joints in a month.


One time I do often feel very inspired to make tunes is after a big night out when I will have maybe had pills or speed or whatever, then I like have this track in my head which is the conglomeration of all the sounds I heard that night, like a theme song or something... That's when I like to smoke up and really try and bring out the essence of the night in La La Land ;)


It's definitely a very personal thing and it's interesting to see all the different opinions and choices!

i go down with my mates in the studio and get loads of smack and we trip all nite long and make wikkid stuff and then in the morning my father comes in adn sais :"what a beautiful song!" and we dance the day away.

smack allnight and your not just sleeping , gauching and scratching your nose

[Miromiric]

i tell ya, its best to grab some good heroine and smack it intravenously. it really helps you focuse on what u r doing. but if u dont have an idea in your head you r ****ed anyway!

I really like doing music just after giving a rimjob. That musky sweaty anal juice taste goes very well with techno music.

so for future reference, ass licking is better flame bait than shooting heroin?

[Metadog]

always used to have a fat spliff on the go when i was working but have mostly pack reefers in for pipes now and don't feel the urge to cane the weed any more, studio or not -

never really worked on a track on chems except once years ago

these days i find myself regularly avoiding getting too twatted at parties on saturday so i can have a relatively clear head in the studio on sunday (one of my regular days) and get a decent amount of work done

i love to listen to a completed track after caning the ket tho - really opens up the sounds

:clap:

[Komplex]

I like to OD and twitch around, randomly hitting the keys on my synths ;)
