― m. (mitchlnw), Thursday, 30 September 2004 20:29 (twenty years ago)

I think it might be useful to take a look at 60's and 70's art/horror soundtracks. Eg, Eraserhead.

shutov assembly seconded, it really is the one eno album most like that particular aphex album. it's really amazing and very underrated, I think

'ikebukuro' is incredible in particular, the long penultimate piece. I listen to just that track for hours at a time.

now it's 8:40am, I'm still tripping, and I wish I could eat some delicious eggs and sausage and potatoes.

― Ian c=====8 (orion), Saturday, 2 October 2004 11:38 (twenty years ago)

Eating meat while tripping seems disgusting
