Shpongle - Connoisseur Of Hallucination

[robmpoirier]

Drugs - to whatever extent- should be fundamentally a thing of and for the youth. Upon adulthood, everyone should see their psychosocial limitations. Cannabis and hallucinogens are good to allow us to see the inner workings of conciousness, but are in reality more of a reset button than a looking glass. I've devoted much of my life to philosophy with entheogenic guidance, and I've come to appreciate purity over altered states of mind. Still, though, I listen to Shpongle ad smile fondly.... :D :D

[TheDrPollux]

the difference between art and music in a song. Since i listen to shpongle i can "enjoy" this difference

[Xolomilco]

@TheDrPollux can you learn how to type,?!

[TheDrPollux]

@Xolomilco no?!

[IttchiMichhi]

I shpongled all over the place

[thecandymanofficial]

indeed a great track

[pastrytheduck]

@Crystal07ful

Yes, some people don't understand this type of music, but that being said I don't understand rap, but I accept the fact that each style of music appeals to certain aspects and levels of conciousness. So don't expect people to understand a conciousness that is beyond there understanding.

[thecandymanofficial]

@pastrytheduck I completely agree. Sphoongle also is very deep in general.And some people try to avoid depth or they just don't see it in some track / or artists or is just not deep for them, it all goes by standards of musicality and other.

[youlowahh]

@cymbao7h .....how on point you are my friend



[Crystal07ful]

Some people do not understand this music. My sister asks me when they are finally singing something.

[sm1Le4MeNow]

@Crystal07ful Is she 7 years old?

[livinghardstyle]

jaaa maaan magical song

[spapyjr]

idk whats happening

[denissymbolic]

Shpongle reminds me of Ozric Tentacles

[BlutoUSN]

Absolute Perfection...

[xWattie831x]

Anyone else recognize the Ned Flanders sample at 3:32?

[sharperguy]

@xWattie831x Yep. It was also used again by Raja Ram in the track Salvia Divinorum by 1200 Micrograms.

[101jemxsabre101]

@xWattie831x ive listened to this sooo many times and didnt notice till u pointed that out XD!

[Cymbao7h]

For some reason, bits of this song remind me of Crash Bandicoot. Anyone else?

[latenitejammin]

@Cymbao7h true haha

[latenitejammin]

@Cymbao7h the fuckin lil jungle sounds

[kiwidubz]

@Cymbao7h Holy shit man!, Crash Bandicoot, man those were the days... fucking eh.

[Rael0505]

@Cymbao7h Hah, I was thinking Banjo-Kazooie!

[keshia281987]

@Cymbao7h i so agree...when my bf played this 2 me a few years ago i was like omg crash bandicoot

[SpicyDonuts]

@Cymbao7h 1:53 is totally like Crash Bandicoot.

@palmabreak thank you for posting this, I sometimes dust off my vinyl to spin just these last three tracks... now that you've uploaded these three together it has given me options!

[kissanainen6969]

i love my life. =)

[MrKristoffer1984]

This is great song!!:D

[clearpancho]

my favorite sphongle song(s)

[HeadBanger14x]

DMT does not just open your mind, it opens a portal to another reality, where strange conscious beings get fascinated by your minds's appearance in their world, and show you things and ask you to watch them and move with them. It makes swimming with dolphins seem like racing tortoises. It's a Death Magic Test, it's Drastic Mind Teleportation, It's a temporary tremendous trading of the modern ego for a much larger cosmic archetype beyond current mainstream Western human conceptualization

[aba2185]

@HeadBanger14x i thought about doing it

but i think it will be so different i would be scared of what i see

and have a bad trip

how was your trip?

[happyorangeanimation]

love how it switches to that guitar bit at the end. I am shpongled for sure, the whole shpongle experience reminds me of sumat and I don't know what it is. It reminds me of the thoughts I had before my first salvia trip, imagining what it would be like that's what it is...

[tygyrtoo]

@happyorangeanimation That's because Salvia is a dirty nasty trip. I don't class it in the same category as psilocybin, LSD or the great king, DMT. No wonder your thoughts didn't live up to your salvia trip, you were expecting gold and got dirt :)

[happyorangeanimation]

@tygyrtoo Salvia was worth trying though, it was a hilarious experience. I'd love to be able to have a good acid trip or psilocybin trip

[readchomsky]

@tygyrtoo

Salvia changed my life. Used correctly, it really works for some people.

[Marronisince1990]

This. Is. Amazing.

(Thank you!)

good job man you must be AWESOME! this can be your motto IM PALMABREAK AND IM AWESOME!

[AlexanderDupont]

awesome track love it

[Knight2321]

Did Anyone else just Shpongle Themselves or..was that just me

[squezey1]

@Knight2321 What exactly happens when you Shpongle your pants? Is there like some rainbow explosion that happens down there and then all of sudden you peer down and what was once your body in your pants is just a bunch of floating patterns in a sea of rainbow colors opening the night sky within itself. Then you become a tree.

[Publixsweetea]

who does sphongles artwork?

[casperorchids]

@Publixsweetea It came from many thoughts that collaborated over years and minutes

[naturalemotion]

8 people do not know that botton dislike is for songs of justin bieber

[goonsauce]

@naturalemotion Cool story faggot.

[Nahaylem]

@goonsauce Hah... What a funny ass you are... Seriously though... It's not your fault your dick is tiny. Taking your anger out on others is a no-no little one.

[goonsauce]

@Nahaylem Did you even read the comment I was referring to? That kid's a fucking moron. Don't scold me.

[Nahaylem]

@goonsauce Yep, and it did not merit "cool story faggot." The scolding was justified.

[goonsauce]

@Nahaylem Yes, maybe you are right. But we all have our demons and experiences that make us the way we are. I turned out to be a cynical douche bag. You appear to be a self-righteous prick. Or maybe that's the cynicism talking. >_>

[Nahaylem]

@goonsauce Self-righteous? Maybe the bit about being a prick, but I don't think I've ever been called self-righteous before.

[Thumperanddumper]

@naturalemotion BUT WHAT ABOUT HORSE. I HATE HORSE?

[at3am]

I love this & shpongle... this one is so amazing!! <3

[redman8903]

this relives my constant anxiety.

[TheBestViwer1]

are these songs good for tripping?

[garrah08]

@TheBestViwer1 absolutely

[smokeDAtreez]

@TheBestViwer1 yep. anything like this is great for trippin

[lmperia]

@TheBestViwer1 are these songs good for tripping? Shpongle is awessssssssomeeeeeeeee for trippin!

[okcomputeA]

what other bands are like this one? or just close to

[sadpanda71]

@okcomputeA check out boards of canada, carbon based lifeforms, bluetech, shulman, ott, entheogenic, phutureprimitive

[mojamamaduda]

@okcomputeA

try maby younger brother :o

[Aivopiirakka]

@okcomputeA Have thought the same, have only found "Younger Brother". No wonder though, because Simon P. is in both bands.

[waterspindle]

@Aivopiirakka re: Simon Posford is more busy than that =)

Simon aka Hallucinogen, Walter Ego ... Posford's "twistedmusic" (dot) com <--

Projektz: Celtic Cross, DSP, Dub Trees, Fly Agaric, Mandala, Mystery Of The Yeti, Psykov, Shpongle, Subkha, Twisted Allstars, Younger Brother.....more..... =) ... I like when he works with Ott ( copy/paste into wikipedia "Ott_(record_producer)" )

[Aivopiirakka]

@waterspindle This conversation wasn't about how many projects Simon Posford is involved. It good to have Google, so if I or anybody else want to know about Simon P's projects we can just search it by ourselves.

[waterspindle]

@Aivopiirakka Fair enough. For people who have not heard the other music he's catalyzed, they may benefit. Or google it, as you suggest. Commentary about how something is awesome deserved less apathy. He is a wonderful musician. Chillaxing in the metaverse, -me

@johnydlite then move backwards but with your mind forwards. Jump in the air 3 times and crouch around the circle. Do all of that at the same time and you will be able to reach them! :)

i simply love music that makes you feel higher then u already are....

[yooooooooooooog]

I wish Shpongle would tour more often.

[nickeale]

hehe I thought connoisseur was mistyped, in French it's written as connaisseur but I learned just that it was actually written as "connoisseur" in middle-French and has been adopted by English around that time. my bad. thx sphongle for improving my French :p

[chickenbiscito]

I want to melt into the floor and fade away into fractal fumes.

[vampirebabe1994]

why wouldnt u like this



[BenderThaMagnificent]

When I hear these three tracks something happens to me. My mood changes. My focus is completely on the music. I get tingles up and down my spine. My eyes water and I feel like I want to cry - not from sadness, but from pure astonishment at how beautiful the music really is. I love these tracks so much. It's like drugs in the form of sound.

If I were to choose my favorite 9 minutes of music, this would have to be it.

I FUCKING LOVE SHPONGLE

[DJJsquared]

Hilarious

[kyle911911]

CHECK OUT THE COMMENTS SECTION OF THIS SONG. REALIZE SHPONGLE HAS DONE THE IMPOSSIBLE AND CREATED UNITY AND PEACE AMONG THE COMMENTATORS OF YOUTUBE, A NIGH IMPOSSIBLE TASK.

[ROFLmao35216]

@kyle911911

I'll take your word for it. This is indeed good enough to cause something like this.

[WonderfulNobody]

shpongle always makes me think one beat is happening, but actually theres another beat in there thats more obvious than another one.. its weirD and creative and i eargasm to it

[bammagara014]

Listening to these songs instantly makes my mind sort of trip no matter what I'm doing. Not like, visuals neccesarily but...instant mind numbing amazingness just melts away thoughts and emotions and sends me in a trance

[hippychild123]

This is like... modern prog, no? Amazing sounds... Wish I had the plugins to make sounds this good. Also wish I had some mushrooms left.

[olenraks]

@hippychild123 its psybiant

[drakan80]

Shpongle truly are connoisseurs, for they are one of the few artists out there who are opening this genre of music.

For those who are interested in other similar artists, i'd have to say my favourite (other) is Entheogenic. In fact, i'd say they're the only other artist truly in this world of music. Listen to their Spontaneous Illuminations album

[thefinkiewicz]

3:31!!

thats ned flanders! the episode where they sell that hippie juice, carrots and mescelin!

[zoomaguy]

god it feels like at 6:55 that guitar jus comes and rescues yu ! amazing =]

[jbagel10]

Anybody else notice how amazing that guitar solo was??

This stuff really is unique...I don't think I've been quite this interested in a new style of music in quite a while.

[adrianhe]

from 6:55 on....now thats what im talkin' about!
