      Tried to wild last night with music on, wtf happened?

      Okay, I'm pretty sure I successfully did a wild last night (this morning). I woke up at 3 AM, did Yoshi's technique and formed a dream that looked like my room. The thing is, I had music playing in the background and it never changed or skipped around. I thought I had just opened my eyes so I went to sleep.

      The music wasn't any lucid dreaming music, just regular music (CCR, Maroon 5, etc.)

      What happened?

      Are you saying that the music was a hypnagogic hallucination?

      Well I use music to stop my fear of weird sounds during SP. Sometimes the music morphes, but if I know the song I have no trouble. So I don't think you were out of SP, but your mind knew the song and remained playing it (was it playing IRL)? I actually find it as soothing way to enter a LD.
      Me, "Why are you crying?"
      DC, "People won't be my friend because I'm ugly."
      Me, "Well I will be your friend... I guess."
      DC, "Ewww no! Your ugly too."

      Most certainly.

      My method for Lucid Dreaming is WILD and I hear music a lot of the time. I think this is because I always listen to my ipod during the day and somehow it translates into hypnagogic hallucinations.

      However, I have to admit. I did once have a Lucid Dream where music was playing and I was laying in my bed.

      It depends how you interpret it.

      Okay, so are you saying I could have been in a WILD but thought it was real life, and just screwed a perfectly good LD?

      Yes its a possibility.

      To conquer this, I usually try and imagine an environment when I hear music and let it evolve around me. That way I know for sure I am in a dream.

      Can't believe it was a wasted LD though

      I realise now that I misread the first post. I thought that you wasn't listening to music in the first place.

      Sorry for this misunderstanding.

      However, my advice still stands to double check whether your dreaming or not.
