I don't always like to smoke while I'm writing (sometimes it helps) but getting high after you finished a track is a really good way of listening to it again with fresh ears, I find. When I'm sober, I'm thinking about it way too much, analyzing everything- being high almost lets me hear it as if somebody else wrote it.

to be fair
ive heard shit out of people on some crazy drugs that you would never hear out of sober people
ive hear shit out of sober people that you could never hear out of people on drugs.
id say that drugs is a bigger problem with live music, because you are going to fuck up (see: mars volta, jimmy hendrix, santana). but the advent of electronic music has opened up a whole new world of crazy disturbing trippy shit, because you can keep working on the track without getting booed off the stage

Narh I agree with you but those people listed above were exceptional people and probably still would of been without the recreational (right spelling?) activities but my argument is just because they did what they did and are famous drug users - doesn't mean its going to make everyone amazing, ya know?

There is of course a concentration element but thats just technicle prowess not invention!
Some of the greatest artistic achievements of the music world (and indeed the literary world) have been associated with psycho-active drugs - to deny that is just naive (or puritan?)
for example ...
Alice in wonderland - Lewis Carrol
Bitches Brew/In a silent way - Miles Davis
The paintings of Salvador Dali
The Velvet Underground
Rave culture in general
Jack Karowac (sp?)
Aldous Huxley
John Lennon and the Beatles
... need I go on?
Sure dont do them
sure disapprove ... but remember its not your life
but be aware you cheapen the whole argument by lessoning the positives of psycho active thinking
Admitting this aspect exists is not approving of drug use its just the recognition of fact eh?
/not having a go really just a bit fucked on a friday night lol
so please dont take offence
1) if you depend on it to make music.
2) if you can't appreciate your own work (an other peoples) sober and not..
The very few times I have had a blaze and got home and decided to write were very fun - granted the ideas were good but the delivery was poor so I guess its like anything, production and drugs? - good in moderation

i like to be a bit stoned or i get really restless.
i'd love to make tunes tripping, tried before and not got too far tbh. tend to use tripping as inspiration, rather than whilst making tracks.

thats usually what I do these days whilst making tunes.....
In the past I have made tunes under the influence of all sorts .....and I find that , you either can't be fucked and you just wanna listen to tunes or your mind is completely somewhere else and you can't focus properly......

i come out with the goods on comedowns the days after big nights, or when ive been having a ketty night in and cant sleep, but am pretty much sober.
i get good ideas while on ket, though needless to say they need a lot of tweaking to get them sounding good to sober ears.
stoned i rarely get anything done, just sit there tweaking stuff for hours as most people seem to do!
anything else, allow producing i wanna listen to someone else!
