Just tacking a bit on here, but over the course of a few months trying different styles of music to fall asleep to (my original goal before I knew of LD) I found (as stated above) that Goa/Psy-Trance works best. Although I have been known to sleep to Industrial IDM like Combichrist and Panzer Ag, and Breaking Benjamin (I dont listen to that anymore, brings back horrible memories of a relationship I want to forget ever happened). I found that Psy-Trance will do exactly as the name implies, put you in a trance.

I'm going to do a litlle experiment tonight and see if I can WILD while listening to Infected Mushroom. I've reached SP before with music on, just never any further because once I got there I hit Hypnogogia and my brain would get freaked and shock the body back awake. (which is quite common for me naturally, like 3x/week)

And on the topic of Dream Recall whilst listening to music, I also find it helps. Prime example is the time I listened to A Voyage Into Trance. I never wrote it down, mainly because it's hard to put into words. But lets put it this way, cats walking on the fscking ceiling. It was like LSD, Shrooms, Mescaline, and DMT all rolled into one. Crazy stuff.

Well, I'm off to go experiment. Back to the Lab with me. Night everyone, I'm hoping for a LD tonight! Wish me luck!
