This music......you become it while doing LSA. it's so amazing.

[001ash]

Start listening from 2:00... Amazing

[DigitalDNA]

N = the number of civilizations in our galaxy with which communication might be possible;

[DigitalDNA]

R* = the average rate of star formation per year in our galaxy fp = the fraction of those stars that have planets

 ne = the average number of planets that can potentially support life per star that has planets fℓ = the fraction of the above that actually go on to develop life at some point

[DigitalDNA]

fi = the fraction of the above that actually go on to develop intelligent life fc = the fraction of civilizations that develop a technology that releases detectable signs of their existence into space L = the length of time for which such civilizations release detectable signals into space

[mindheart101]

its GREAT!!! thank you :)

[S1W2E3D]

who knew....

[retardedman]

I can't describe the emotions I felt when I saw this at Ozora 2011, I shivered so hard and my eyes were filled with tears. I've listened to them for quite a while, but it was like all new when I saw them at the stage. It felt like they took my virginity or something, it was indeed a special moment for me in ways I can't describe.

one love.

[chipius]

An exelent example of space ambient,like 76:14!!!!

[aperturescience138]

@SolarOfCore an equation which practically determines the possibility of the existence of arbitrary intelligent alien lifeforms.

[Kevin215ful]

Aye Cambodia !

[chainsaw1321]

sounds like a modern-ish version of Enigma...which is a good thing!

[BoyfromSevilla]

Get a lava lamp, chill in a dark room, play this music and you're fucking set.

[rajeeb34]

@ThaMasterOfDisaster2 dont forget weed



[Templemister]

@ThaMasterOfDisaster2 Don't forget copious amounts of illegal substances!

[ThaMasterOfDisaster2]

@Templemister I thought that was a given :D

[ManDemBassic]

Utterly speechless. Wow.

[TheDuckseason]

Ever have sex on a train Joel ..... time of your life kid......

[TheDuckseason]

Reminds me of something from risky business

[psykedeliChillingOut]

From the first wave this track is simply beautiful.

[dawahyisrael]

E=MC2, but if you don't use the energy, then the energy USES YOU. Meditate on that.

[ImTheWackhead]

@dawahyisrael that is really deep but total bullshit.

[OliverUnderTheMoon]

I can't help but think "GOURANGA!!!!!" when I see the monks

[Derek70214]

on a side note go to Cambodia and see those temples...

....the ambience of the place is unbelievable.

[deathbef]

This is amazing track! ;-)

[neurotek44]

[Psyrius88]

CBL is a true inspiration for me when I create music. Please check my latest song called Fluorescent watch?v=AhrXGHDNOCM

[ataraxia1334]

i wish i could close my eyes and smile like that....

[Exiphi]

I'm so proud of being swedish right now.

[philipemongo]

@Exiphi yes and this is filmed in Cambodia my second home from Sweden! Love the people the nature!

[cadiumdan]

Inspired again...

[NomadiCortex]

Thank the Carbon Life for the innovation to creativity.

This is one live set to see on LSD. you will travel the stars and have memory of emotions and love deeper than any single person, a collective.

Long live the carbon based lifeforms.

[DerekJennyMusic]

CBL are one of the most amazing ambient electronic groups out there. If you have not listened to this with good headphones while going to sleep, you do not know the meaning of the word "relaxation." Those few dislikes must have came from some crazy motherfuckers all wigged out on speed. Just relax fellas and take another listen.

[inachu]

@DerekJennyMusic For the most part your comment is 100% dead on but its not a total relaxing experience.

I thought it was at first and the ambience is/was awsome but then drum beats kick in.... grrr. I am edting the music to my own tastes. Relaxing can help you wind down if you just got home and turned out the lights but as for going to sleep with it will not do it unless you remove any kind of beat/tempo other than that CBL is awsome!

[Frozenpotatoes8]

Is it weird that I got a boner from this?

[philipemongo]

@Frozenpotatoes8 not really

[sensejchannel]

Perfect relax track.

[weaverflytyer]

Some computations of the Drake equation, given different assumptions:

Current estimates (see below):

R* = 7/year, fp = 0.5, ne = 2, fl = 0.33, fi = 0.01, fc = 0.01, and L = 10,000 years

N = 7 × 0.5 × 2 × 0.33 × 0.01 × 0.01 × 10,000 = 2.31 (so two communicative civilizations exist in our galaxy at any given time, on average, plus two hundred more that are not trying to communicate).

[thealbumleaves]

Oooooooh. So THIS is what the UNIVERSE sounds like.

[Ivghald]

this track heard on MDMA causes irreversible... ehem, 'brain damage'...

[romerok]

@Ivghald What happend man? I'm curious..

[Ivghald]

@romerok

What happened is only that I would perceve this track by s prismat of a feeling that I had this on this special moment.

[pilkq12]

@Ivghald *brain healing*

[Hispanick]

@Ivghald would be cool on Lsd

[piobairenagriosai]

Close your eyes and forget the world

[forestmightyblack]

N=r*f(p)*n(e)*f(l)*f(i)*f(c)*l

Drake equation

[PsyKad]

@forestmightyblack I've wondered what the hell she was spelling out for the longest time. Thank you!

[PsyKad]

@forestmightyblack I've wondered what the hell she was spelling out for the longest time. Thank you!

[Ayevee39]

@forestmightyblack explain please, I've been wondering what it means for years.

[oratadin]

@forestmightyblack to bad it's based on guesses. I wish it wasn't :(.

[SolarOfCore]

@forestmightyblack what is the Drake equation?

[riseofparadise]

Like way to truth...

[Ryustushen]

TIBET IS BEAUTIFUL!!! And I very seldom use the word beautiful, I will admit I am sort of a bigot... But if I could go anywhere in the world, It would be there.

[TehpTx]

@Ryustushen It is actually Kuala Lumpur, not Tibet ;)

[Ryustushen]

@TehpTx I've seen some of these photos I know for a fact some of them are from tibet.

[MithrilDwarf81]

Oh and word of sleepers as the following song.

[MithrilDwarf81]

LOL first time I heard this song I always thought I was hearing her say M Mmmmm Mark = R, (wisper) wake up.... Now it's my favorite song, and I put it at the end of a couple 30 minute lucid sleep tracks, as I fall asleep :D

[Trancer93]

Abiogenesis + Vortex + Photosynthesis + World of Sleepers = Greatest music I've ever heard.

[Ismokeweederyday]

the nu at ahqael et ela krystala

[DigitalDNA]

I love how the statues transcend into the matter of immortality on this planet. 

[dhirenshah]

I wud like to ask the 6 people who have disliked this - What is better than this??? Do you recommend anything better than this...then plz let us know too!!! :P :D

[AlexanderDupont]

@dhirenshah

HAHAH true, anything better than this. Would be GODLIKE

[Jyotinanda108]

@dhirenshah try ATB - Future Memories is a really cool tune and video

[EwigesEis]

This is the only music that I can listen while working...

[jathiderbigman]

3:10 can change ones life maybe....

[memnon0288]

@jathiderbigman I noticed that too. Very powerful. ;A;

[GlueTube101]

listen to this kind of music an catch the sence of life

[lobban2]

Never thought this was a musicvideo.. Really loved the song :)

[62cky4powerthirst]

this sounds so beautiful on so many levels

[mafiamitzy]

This is great but, i still think sphongle is better

[TRiToX91]

@mafiamitzy In my opinion, Shpongle has a way different sound and is enjoyable is a totaly different way. To me, CBL in relaxing music and Shpongle is "It's the middle of the night and i can't sleep" music

[mlodaalways]

blow minded!

[assmunchtv]

damn this is the most amazing shit it must of took so much dedication to make shit like this. iv never tooken drugs to this song i want to so bad n also unions jacks music too

[iSOdushman]

I can't imagine who can possibly dislike such music. You suck bigtime.

[RocketSpecialist]

@iSOdushman gaga fans

[komkomer]

Ankor Wat is amazing...

Tune!!!!!

[shneizah]

If you like CBL (and you should!) you should also check out:

I Awake

H.U.V.A. Network

Solar Fields

and probably:

port-royal (try the track Nights in Kiev) - a personal fave band

[Etlau]

What shes saying at the end? i just hear: M equals R, fp - ne - sl - fi - fc

whatever this means.

[pjclock]

@Etlau It doesn't matter =)

[johnspecker]

@Etlau

N = R* fp ne fl fi fc L

The formula for the Drake equation. It is showed in one of the album's photos.

[TRiToX91]

@johnspecker Worth noting that the drake equation is a hypothetica equation for calculating the ammount of planets in the galaxy where comunication may be made.

[604psysutra604]

This music explains more and more of words... I've never heard better chillout....

[jathiderbigman]

3:10 godlike...

[62cky4powerthirst]

reminds me of Ratchet and Clank: Going Commando

[CRASDFGH]

what are they spelling half way through

[HabanaCohiba]

This type of sound is so unique even within the ambient genre. I listen to them for two or three years now and everytime I hear these tunes I am still amazed by the complexion of the sound. It pleasantly forces the human mind to go from the conscious state of pictorial imagination to the subconscious state, which is the land of feelings. This music isn't only beautiful but also helpful, because it drives one's mind spontaneously into meditation where isn't imagination but deep feelings.

[infdrive]

@HabanaCohiba I use to listen to this on my mp3 player when I go to a mountain-biking tour.

[Bhousm76]

@infdrive

I ride road out into the vast greatness of cornfields and listen to stuff like this while I bike too!

[MadNet12]

@HabanaCohiba This is exactly what i believe too! Ambient has no lyrics but tells you more things from lyrics songs...

[marsbarz]

This is like sex in my ears.

[fredrikhcs]

@marsbarz I didnt want to hear that, goddamnit.

[JakeWearsJeans94]

@marsbarz Happy sex is best sex.

[philipemongo]

@marsbarz yes something like that. really fantastic music this

[rpyka1]

I just love the way the beat really starts hit at 3:15.

[SipahiWarrior]

Anyone stressed or something bothering them? Listen to this.

[DevelX666]

This song made me buy their albums. Purely fantastic.

Does anybody knows similar and at least as this good artists?

[jp23ctx]

@DevelX666 ''Solar Fields'' d-.-b

[DevelX666]

@jp23ctx Thanks, I have already looked them up and they sound great too.

[ReverandPilot]

Talk about emotional journey!!! Absolute tune.

[Mac11A1]

where are all the beautiful pictures from

[olly101lad]

better than shpongle

[thealbumleaves]

@olly101lad - maybe. depends on preference. they are COMPLETELY different, though, if you really give it some thought. both prolific, both magically, aurally delicious - but certainly if you consider them to belong to the same genre (then you must also regard said genre quite broadly), they have respectively mastered a different niche within it.

[DJkebu]

this is the kind of music where you can just chill, relax, and think :) this artist is awesome and i only just found it through friend!

[jakabbalint]

CBL's creative work is fantastic..

[YouthOobe]

could we say that CBL are the ozric tentacles of xxi century?

[odorifero]

@YouthOobe

No, I think. Ozric are more stranger than CBL, both in music and life.

[escutto]

[prosurv123]

[CatishDuck76]

Better than any drug.

[BasherCoon]

@CatishDuck76 Apparently you haven't listened to this ON drugs! Lol, it's even better 'augmented'.

[CatishDuck76]

I will have to try that some time.
