This I will have a slight nod toward, I remember reading an interview with Goldie saying he mixed Terminator after necking three pills and was more aware of frequencies as a result

depends what kind imo. xanax is not gonna help you lol.

Again, totally disagree. Just produced for the first time the other night on a benzo, and REALLY helped me chill out and just work. REALLY REALLY.

You have a tolerance probably. Not the same.

I don't think so, not in a big way. Granted, first time I took them at night, the next day I sat in a chair and stared at this tree branch out the window for the DAY. Screaming inside my head to get up, but unable to...

But, I really don't often take them. Still working on a script from late Oct.

I used to live in a pretty shady town, Youngstown, OH. Some US people maybe heard of it. Famous for its mob presence in the late 80s and early 90s. Anyway. I swear to god everyone in that town had an RX for Ativan. Like everyone. I would go out drinking on Thursday because people would give me a half dozen of them if I bought them a Long Island or some other power drink. Thursday is relivant because the drunks were waiting on pay checks. Or if you went at the end of the month right before unemployment or disability checks went out.

Used to pop those babies quite a lot...defo make you a zombie after a while. But I can see how any anxiety reducer would help you work past things. They all make me stupid sleepy after a while though.

Also dont ever mix them with opiates. Bad fucking news yall...

Double downer interaction. They multiple each others affects. I get crazy blackouts...like I cant remember 12 hour plus spans of time or ive gotten physically ill.

appaz pineapple ex. isnt even as good as a standard haze or cheese strain in strength
nah but i dont know if it helps if you do it too often but it can be good in small amnts

Do it bro, get high and then produce maybe don't have a load of it in one go and save some for after the session, worst thing that'll happen is that you'll have to delete the project the day after if it's just crap

I hear you on that. Ativan and a beer (only 1, low alcohol) make it just chill and go with the vibe like nothing else. And its actually something i can be proud of the next day too.

Yeah, I feel you on that bruv. I think weed fucks with your executive functions too much to make good decisions. Like it puts you in touch with the groove, and timbre, but then decision making goes to shit. Need to have all that going at the same time. If you continually use drugs to achieve mental states, you diminish your own ability to naturally achieve those mental states.

Cringing at the use of naturally, perhaps someone with a thesaurus can come up with a better word?

^ "when sober"?

i'm trying to producer on the ol devil's lettuce right now. it fucks ur attention span so badly. this is why i don't smoke (much) anymore.

on a related note, how do people not understand the concept of not smoking that often. i swear to god at least once a week someone asks me if i smoke and i'll be like sometimes and they are like what the fuck does that mean m8. it means i smoke when my friends who smoke, smoke with me, but i don't buy it myself ffs. and they still don't understand. it's all or nothing in their world.

dubunked wrote:^ "when sober"?

Yes.

nowaysj wrote:Yeah, that is the thing - as you are learning, you need what you learn to actually make it into your fucking memory, to later be drawn upon. Big problem with weed.

So .... Write stoned, mix on Louie?

But seriously, if you got time to waste, you might as well waste it. Record everything and try to work out where it went wrong. Save As is your friend.

Pretty much all my friends are at that point. Nothing wrong with that. That is a stupid response. What the hell? They were that person who didnt discover grass until they went to college. Then they were that annoying person who just talked shit about weed and all day, and annoying jam bands. Also, they insisted on brining weed with them everywhere, even when it was zero chance there would be an appropriate moment to smoke.

TBH I dont even know why I smoke as much as I do anymore. Its kinda lame by yourself. Girlfriend doesnt partake. Cutting way back only seems like a good thing.

sorry captain ignorant probably becos it's an addiction, thats like saying why can't these people just do heroin once in a while not everyday, obviously heroins much worse but its the same principle

edit: i may have misread ur comment lol

I was about to come in and say NO no no no keep a clean head during that etc.
Then I remembered that I smoke spliffs all the time

'Remember' might be too strong a word..
