It's not your fault
It's my own fault
I'm not human at all
I have no heart

You're not alone here. Hugs to anyone who needs one today. ❤️

Lucrecia Dalt’s “cosa rara” (ft. David Sylvian) has been on heavy rotation for me. This track has a hypnotic, rolling groove with a dark, atmospheric edge that strongly reminds me of classic trip-hop. Think the moody, sensual side of Tricky, Massive Attack, or Portishead, but filtered through a more modern, experimental lens.

Dalt (Colombian artist deeply embedded in the Latin avant/experimental scene) excels at creating immersive, cinematic soundscapes, and Sylvian’s contribution adds an even more haunting, shadowy layer. Perfect late-night listening that blurs psych, electronics, and noir vibes.

Diles que no me maten has been my favorite band in any genre for the past year, since discovering their KEXP set from El Desierto Casa Estudio. During this particular performance, they brought on the legendary Guatemalan cellist Mabe Fratti, whose textured, atmospheric playing added another haunting dimension to their already exploratory sound.

The name comes straight from Juan Rulfo’s classic short story in El Llano en Llamas: “¡Diles que no me maten, Justino!” (“Tell them not to kill me, Justino!”), the desperate plea of a doomed man begging his son for mercy. Rulfo, the master of sparse, haunting Mexican rural realism, captured a raw sense of fate and violence that somehow fits perfectly with the band’s hypnotic, shape-shifting sound.

Live, they often feel like they’re improvising in the moment (which they do a lot of), riding waves of krautrock, psych, jazz, and post-punk energy that feel both loose and fiercely locked-in. Hailing from the vibrant independent scene in CDMX, they’re one of the most exciting acts coming out of Mexico right now.

Hey everyone! I'm one of the new moderators here.

u/touch-of-grain left a great comment in our intro post that really captures the vibe we're going for:

>I’d love a space that’s more general than a specialized genre sub. I listen to a lot of jam bands, stoner rock, garage psych, indie neopsyche, dream pop…… psychedelic influence is a recurring theme in most of my favorite music.

>I hope this space is full of discussion and doesn’t just devolve into a bunch of YouTube links with no description. Hoping for a small cultivated community, not just r/ListenToThisWhileTripping.

Our Vision Going Forward

Share music, art, thoughts, or questions, but please include a short description: what kind of music it is and why you like it. Maybe an interesting fact about the artist, song, etc. Use flairs for better discoverability. Let's build a quality community together.

We’ve got a fresh start here, let’s shape it together!

Question of the Day:

Psychedelic music started with 60s counterculture (extended jams, drones, surreal lyrics, studio tricks, Eastern influences), but it’s evolved into so much more.

• How do you define it? Mind-expanding vibes, specific sounds/techniques, or just “music that feels trippy”?
• Can any genre go psychedelic (psych blues, psych folk, psych hop, ambient, metal, dream pop, etc.)? Any styles off-limits?
• Favorite sub-styles or eras? Drop recommendations!

Drop your thoughts, tracks, or examples below. Thanks for being part of the early wave.

From the video description on YouTube:

...back in '97, I teamed up with Ray Stevens to create the "God is God" video. I licensed "The Color of Pomegranates," a movie by Sergei Parajanov. One of Martin Scorsese’s top ten films.

I probably finished it around the first album, "Transmissions," but it just didn't fit with the themes of those early albums. It wasn't until "Bible of Dreams" that Greg Hunter, a great engineer and producer, mixed it.

A funny thing is that when God Is God dropped, it blew up on MTV's late-night dance shows and caught the eye of Alice Cooper and Mariah Carey. Mariah Carey's husband, Tommy Mattola CEO of Sony Records, even hit up my manager, Mick Paterson, wanting me to direct Mariah's next video. I said no.

First off, I have too much respect for Sergei Parajanov and his original work. Plus, directing a big-budget video! All I'd ever done was Super 8 stuff. And honestly, making a video for a big star didn’t feel right. Even after Tommy insisted, I said no. Big shoutout to Mike Stanton for syncing up the footage and edits with an upscaled film version. The old one was kinda blurry...

I'm posting this track to test our new AutoModerator integration! I'm sharing it using an Apple Music link specifically to see how the system handles platform-specific URLs and automatically provides universal listening options for everyone.

Beyond the test, this track is Granite by Martin Nonstatic on Ultimae records. It's a gorgeous slice of deep, atmospheric ambient and psych-electronic soundscapes with beautiful textures and a hypnotic rhythm. Fingers crossed AutoMod does its magic!

I think this may be the most deeply psychedelic live crescendos ever captured. I'm convinced the final few minutes of this track are exactly what you hear when you die, just a pure, overwhelming, beautiful wall of sound taking over everything.

For good measures I'm including a link to another version. While the sound quality of the one above is better, this link below is more raw and emotional IMHO.

Sigur Rös - Untitled #8 "Popplagið" (Live @ Best Kept Secret 2013, 11/11)

I actually discovered this band from Mexico about a year ago, but I wasn’t in the right headspace to appreciate them at the time. Thanks to the Apple Music algorithm, they popped back up recently and have become a regular staple of mine. I've grown to really enjoy their music. It just goes to show that even with music, set and setting matter.

Location: Mexico, country-wide: Large-scale public viewing locations for FIFA World Cup 2026™

Event: The FIFA World Cup 2026™ round of 16 match between Mexico and England on Sunday, July 5, will be played in Mexico City Stadium (formerly known as Azteca) at 6:00 p.m. local time. In Mexico City and throughout the country, large crowds will gather at stadiums, Fan Fests, and public viewing locations for watch parties and celebrations throughout the day and into the night after the match. Previously, protests have been staged concurrently to take advantage of the crowd sizes and media attention.

U.S. citizens should take extra precaution in large crowds, as overcrowding at recent watch parties and celebrations has resulted in injuries and deaths. In addition, joining demonstrations deemed political by authorities may result in detention or deportation, as Mexican law prohibits political activities by foreign citizens.

Actions to Take:

- Take extra precautions and maintain situational awareness in large crowds, as they can be unpredictable. Be aware of nearby exits and have a plan for exiting if you feel uncomfortable or overcrowded. Avoid areas around protests and demonstrations.

- Monitor local media for updates.

- Follow host city social media channels u/fwc26monterrey, u/mexicocity26_, and u/gdl2026 for real-time updates on closures of Fan Fest access points for overcrowding. Look for alternate viewing locations if Fan Fests are at capacity.

Location: Mexico City

Event: The inaugural FIFA World Cup 2026™️ game will take place in Mexico City on June 11. Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum declared measures to reduce traffic on June 11 in Mexico City for the inaugural game, urging maximum telework and closing schools.

Since the beginning of June, protests by workers’ unions have caused disruption in Mexico City by intermittently closing off areas near the historic center (the Zocalo and surrounding streets). Additional protests are anticipated during World Cup programming in Mexico City which may cause significant disruptions to normal traffic patterns, including temporarily closing arterial roads such as Paseo de la Reforma, Periferico Sur, and Circuito Interior, as well as briefly blocking access to Benito Juárez International Airport. Protests are generally peaceful, but some have resulted in clashes with the police, as well as an increased security presence around affected areas.

U.S. citizens should avoid participating in demonstrations that may be deemed political by authorities, as Mexican law prohibits political activities by foreign citizens, and participation may result in detention or deportation.

Actions to Take:
- Monitor local media to understand possible disruption to roads, airports, and events.
- Avoid participating in political demonstrations.
- Review our June 9 message to U.S. citizens and website for specific information and travel advice related to Mexico during FIFA World Cup 2026™️ from June 11 – July 5, 2026.

Hi Friends. I just watched this video from TechAltar and felt a deep leading to share it here. It details how modern warfare has shifted into highly decentralized, digital marketplaces.

The video explains "Brave One," a platform where soldiers essentially use an "Amazon-style" marketplace to shop for drones. Even more unsettling, units earn a digital currency ("e-points") based on a shifting value scale of enemy casualties to buy more weapons.
