| | Psychedelic music - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | The first use of the word "psychedelic" in a rock music context is usually credited to the 13th Floor Elevators, and the earliest known appearance of this usage of the word in print is in the title of their 1966 album The Psychedelic Sounds of the 13th Floor Elevators. | | | Initially called Goa trance, this psychedelic music was the result of bajigga the 60s influences with industrial music and electronica. | | | Psychedelic music is a musical style inspired by or attempting to replicate the mind-altering experience of drugs such as cannabis, psilocybin, mescaline, and especially LSD. |

| | One can dance in many ways, and in connection with many different aspects of the music: rhythm, melody, mood, meaning of the words, tempo, harmony, intensity, etc. What matters most is what each dancer prefers.....and that they don't smash into their neighbors on the dance floor. | | | Dancing "On 2" is dancing "IN" the music. | | | The count is the schematic diagram of the dance, in the same way musical notation is the schematic diagram of a piece of music. |

| | Baka Pygmies - Music and musical instruments |
| | The musical bow, made and played exclusively by women, flutes and floor standing musical bows are instruments probably typical of the pygmean music culture. | | | The music and the dances are among the most important and essential aspects of the Baka culture. | | | There are numerous musical forms - almost exclusively vocal and polyphonic - and they are characterized by a peculiar, elegant use of counterpoint, which is based on repetitive melodic-rhythmical formulas, with microvariations and a great deal of individual improvisation. |

| | Kris, Pygmy's lefty guitarist, wore a manic, glazed-over stare that became positively feral as several of his bandmates let their shoes fly off their feet into the ceiling or against the walls, and singer Edward Adames dived off the stage to feign death on the floor for a few minutes. | | | No mere fashion victims, though, Pygmy is best-known for performances so energetic that band members (and their shoes) separate from the stage like fur flying in a cat fight, feet rarely touching floors. | | | Until then, all the songs on the band's stunning, eight-song CD Pygmy Performs are available for listening at www.mp3/pygmy. |

| | DPRP Reviews - 2004 - 33 |
| | On this CD it is evident that the voice of Floor is even more dominant than on the previous albums, but it is also clear that the music has changed from gothic metal to darker, heavier, powerful metal. | | | Thankfully, the loss of Mark Jansen doesnt seem to have had a particularly detrimental effect on the bands song-writing abilities, and the majority of the tracks on this album work very well indeed. | | | During the more tranquil passages the voice of Floor Jansen, generally playing the role of the child, sings of her plight as a child who is but an annoying presence that her career-obsessed parents prefer to ignore. |

| | Brian Eno and the Ambient Series - Article - Stylus Magazine |
| | Musically, the record was equally aridoverlong, brutally repetitive, much of it sounding like the cutting-room floor scraps from a rejected Paul Bley ECM release. | | | In retrospect, Discreet Music and the Another Green World had made it increasingly clear that Eno was falling out of love with the song as a means of expression. | | | And for all its musical and aesthetic crudeness, Eno himself must have approved: at 40-minutes, the song was the longest track in British chart history to enter the Top Ten. |
