“Music is a safe kind of high, ” and people have been getting high with music for a long time. But that’s not the only ‘high’ which people have got so far. Marijuana is a part of the culture of getting high, engaging in dimensions beyond reality. With ‘musical strains,’ the output is beyond beautiful, it’s other-worldly as some might say.
Blending Time and Space:
Why do you listen to good music? To time-lapse?To space-jump? Everyone has one reason or another for tuning into music. But if you’re those rare out-of-the-ordinary ones who can say that they ‘connect’ with music, you know what music is about.
You want to transcend what’s around you, dive through turmoil and come back up into a fresh nascent world of sensory perception. And if this seems a bit far-fetched, wait till you add marijuana.
Every single Merry Jane’s lover will say that music is better with her tangling around your mind. It’s no myth; there’s science behind it. Marijuana, good grade marijuana, elevates your perception.
Let’s just blankly throw in a few words, Delta-9-Tetrahydrocannabinol and Cannabidiol. Fondly, these are better known as THC and CBD. THC affects your brain’s auditory and visual components making you more perceptive to everything around you.
It is the holy MJ after all!
Rich Deep Layers and Moods:
Think of it this way, what do you like about a Song? About a favorite one?It’s layers. It might be the lyrics, but there’s much more. It’s the totality of the whole music. Everything from the cymbal rolls, the bass layering,the guitar tone, the lyrics dissolving into the horizon with more meaning to them than ever before – you’ll get the idea just by reading this again after giving yourself up to Merry Jane’s arms.
Dope-Amen!
Coming to a bit of science again, ever heard of Dopamine? Among all the functions this chemical performs in your brain, the one which you want need to know right now is reward-motivation.
Simply, dopamine gives you the goosebumps, which shiver down your spine when you feel (perceive in technical terms) something good, Good. Dopamine entices the chemicals inside your body which gives you Euphoria in whatever way it might be.
Light a spliff and listen to this Petrucci’s Purple Rain cover. A single layer of progression, you will feel yourself engaging exponentially. For a bit more transcendental experience, you can go for a more overt ‘surrounding’ experience with progressive rock.
Now there’s another huge factor in all of this – Mood. THC and CBD can affect or can be the after-effects of your mood. So, whether you’ll be listening to Porcupine Tree or Pink Floyd will depend on the direction you want to take yourself.
First-Timer? Or a Veteran?
And, at the end of the day, it’s all about the direction in which you want to take yourself. Music is an extension of who we are; it’s the emotional dimension of where you are or where you want to be. With Marijuana, you will find that dimension opening up to you. Marijuana and Music all the way.
Keep Calm. Know Thyself.Fly.
