Hot Chip pairs well with S-ketamine

I’ve gotten back into serious deep meditation and have been at it for long enough that I feel comfortable exploring unorthodox pathways to continue mapping my own physical brain from the inside out.
Administering this form of the meditation is much different than what zookeepers and dentists use to sedate patients. The S-enantiomer form of ketamine binds in a way which allows the human mind to operate in an unnaturally introspective manner, highly altered, yet without preventing memory formation while under the influence, as so many other psychedelic-dissociative substances do.
While progressing further along this weekly practice, I soon found it advantageous to put on some cello music, which helped guide me along mental pathways without accidentally going in a circle, as I had been doing occasionally while meditating in complete silence and darkness.
After seeing a dramatic enhancement to the inner visual navigation aspects provided by a cello, I eventually decided to put on a different record which had already been laying out.
Hot Chip!
Initially it was a touch too much for producing navigable routes through these immensely detailed psychedelic pathways connecting unexpected regions of my brain and body, but it was an educational journey which I truly value.
To be clear, I do have a prescription for the S-isomer form of Ketamine from my primary care physician, so I’m not suggesting to you, the good people of Reddit, to somehow source pure S-ketamine without medical supervision while laying down in a safe space while listening to Hot Chip records.
Just wanted to share this delightful experience with you and perhaps see if anyone else out there would like chime in.

Ready for the Floor meaning

Hello fellow Hot Chippers ! I would like any opinions on what y’all think Ready for the Floor is about.

I’ve recently found this wonderful little band and the song that has lived rent free in my head for the past month or so has been this one. Now the consensus i found online for what it’s about is: “asking someone to dance,” or something of that nature. But the reason this song has been special to me is because I thought it was pretty obviously a sweet and sad breakup song. The chorus goes:

“Instead of carving up the wall
Why don't you open up with talk?
I am ready, I am ready for a fall”

Which to me sounds like a call to action to break up. I like this because it is made emotionally resonant with the, “Your my number 1 guy,” lyric. A relationship where while the two people still love each other, it’s gotten strained.

I could go into more lyrics but I don’t wanna make this any longer, nor make it too “You MUST see it my way.” But yeah, thoughts, opinions, theories, manifestos? Thanks.
