Beats and drugs? How many?
Just sit through two hours of a tiesto set and you will know why people take drugs. It's the most boring monotenous thing in the world. You have to be on some shit to enjoy tarnce. As for other forms of electronic music a little drug use is nice, no different from coffee in my opinion.

taking drugs is fucking sweet basically.
altering perception is pretty sweet too. being high is sweet. tripping is sweet. being in the k-hole is sweet. smoking a nice joint is sweet. snorting a fat line is sweet.
you should blatantly take some drugs. i know people are skirting around the issue but lets face it.

For you, personly, it would best to leave stuff behind the un-opened door of drugs alone.
And if your not intending on opening the door you have no real need to know whats behind it (and would probably not comprehend it anyway).
Music nice though isn't it?
...and trees and stuff.
be happy with what you know.
Remember: If you never know riches you can cope with being poor.

i think justifiably, I'm kind of split on the subject now.
Current feeling is I think drugs a for kids, cheap fireworks for a shortwhile, most of the fireworks not very good either. Once you've done enough of it it just becomes another thing that gets samey in life. Change is a good as a rest.
one things for sure. i get a lot more done nowadays and listen to and make a loooot more music.
Srtanding around doing 30 min jams in studios with the whole band baked off their tits was fun...for a while. Productive, it wasn't. Hightened awareness of the music? Bollocks.
i've seen people dancing to car signals off their tits on pills, people dancing long after the music was switched off, people dancing to tracks they would ordinarily spit at praising it as the greatest music ever.
Drugs is what they is, cheaply made nasty uncontrolled chemicals, but if you find them fun, then thats cool too.
My only addendum being, in my epxerience and the people i knew/know, the fun always stops at some time and sometimes in more radical ways than others. mental health problems, physical health problems, death, job loss, housing loss, etc.etc.
just painting then picture for the possibilities, of course, none of those things will ever happen to you individually right?

^ haha yeah man i feel what you're saying for sure.
i stay of drugs, work out a lot and eat healthy, but then after about a month or 2 of not touching any, i like to get really stoned or snort some and k and pills.
but i agree with what you're saying with regards to it being for kids. i think you do grow out of it, i have to an extent. but i think i have a lot more getting fucked to do until i am over it. i do know it's there tho and yeah i think it's important to think of the mental health issues. i figure as i am doing it spaced out and i don't normally drink or smoke, i am spreading the risk but i guess only time will tell.

Wrong, wrong, wrong, wrong, wrong, wrong.Silverfish wrote: alcohol included
Seriously, how can you have never had a drink? This had better be for religious reasons.
Of course you can listen to electronic music without drugs. Hell, some people can even dance to it sober.

hmm,
funny coincidence! I think a lot about going straight edge lately...
I mean, its a hard thing to do, i like all of that shit. Speed, E, K, the tripping things, Beer Ciggies and Pot (<not that much anymore).
I listened a lot to 80s Hardcorepunk and kinda stumbled upon straight edge, i know its a silly, very radical and childish way to see the world.
On the other hand i was impressed...
