“Psychedelic Symphonies” is a 99-minute orchestral instrumental album that I carefully created for — & under the influence of — psychedelic medicines.
I composed & recorded this album over the course of 7+ years of immersive sessions — all in an effort to provide a soft, soothing & supportive sonic container for journeyers entering into altered states.
Recommended Listening Protocol:
Mindfully set an intention
Administer LSD or psilocybin dose
Meditate for 45 minutes in silence
Put on headphones & an eye mask
Push play & explore inner space
“High Notes” is a collection of lyrical songs that I improvised & recorded under the influence of LSD, psilocybin & MDMA.
These songs were recorded over the course a decade in various organic settings — beside the ocean, inside of hotel bathrooms, on the Venice Beach Boardwalk — with a consistent theme of me wondering about the essentiality of wonderment & trying to sing my way back to sanity, over and over again.
I’ve decided to share these songs with the world because they are the closest I can come to summarizing the insights I’ve encountered on psychedelics. The whole album is free to download. I just ask that you send me feedback — specifically: please let me know (1) your favorite song (2) your least favorite, and (3) any other thoughts you have…
