Description
Salvia Divinorum is a plant i used to grow, and the effects of which when it is taken i have tried to describe in this song.
Salvia divinorum has a long continuing tradition of use as an entheogen by indigenous Mazatec shamans, who use it to facilitate visionary states of consciousness during spiritual healing sessions.
I feel i could never do the experience justice with words or sounds, but i have tried to put it into a song none the less.
The Lyrics, "what is happening to me?" are fairly self explanatory. most people feel a sence of something taking over them and a loss of control, i have found going with it is the only sensible thing to do, as if you try fight it, you will loose.
My experiences have had a common theme of time going like a stop-motion animation film, bit like the cure video 'end of the world'. So this is the reason for the scratchy bitty clicky sounds. it is quite a hypnotic experience so the track is very repetitive, but sometimes things can come up on you by surprise, this is represented in the track when it all goes a little mad and spikey around about the 2.40 min mark.
The track sounds better and you can make out more detail when i listen in garageband than when i put it in to itunes or macjams. Anyone got any advice about quality?
Any way i have been rambling on for too long. The song is a lot less interesting than the experience.
