Thread: GRILD (Guitar Riff Induced Lucid Dream)

The name gave me a Really hard laugh XD
great Idea, trying it soon I think

Cheers

Yeah the name of this technique does sound a bit too cheesy (just like someone might invent MMFILD - My Mom's Fart Induced Lucid Dream), still the basic idea seems interesting So you basically create sound-alertness association.

ps. The alternative to this technique could be a favourite song while listening to mp3 at night. The idea is simple, you RC whenever you hear it during week, and once you sleep with your headphones on, you get lucid no matter what.

GRILD kinda sounds like PWND/OWND, dunno why.
Too bad i no haz guitar .

I have a few repeating licks that are increably trippy.

bass or base? I play bass, five string. You think this technique wuold still work? We do have more acoustic volume so I don't have to amplify it probably.

To get back on topic, I use this easy soloish riff that I made up myself:

(3rd from bot) G----5-s7----3-s5----2-s3---3--2--0--2--3-s7----3-s5----2-s3-----0 Repeat

Cheers to all guitarists

Huh, that's very interesting! I'll definitely try it out when i get the chance, I love guitar!

I wonder if it's successful or not.

Guitar Riff Induced Lucid Dream? -is amused-

Putting names aside, the technique itself just sounds like a modified version of V-WILD. I think you could apply it to any basic repetitive task that you can visualize; I doubt there's anything inherently good about using guitar riffs specifically, unless you're into them anyway.

I wonder: Could this work for any instrument? I have these practices I repeat over and over in trumpet. I know them backwards and forwards, and can even play games whilst doing them perfectly. They might work.

I don't know if your parents would put up with your trumpet while going to sleep..?

He wouldn't actually be playing the trumpet, just imagining himself playing it... Otherwise how would he WILD?

Ohk, I have no musical talent what so ever and I was wondering... Would it work if you just play a clam gentle song over and over again?

The other night I was trying to WILD and a song I like kept playing over in my head.. But the problem was it was really hard to stop it and I thought it was going to screw up my WILD attempt. Should I have just let it play?

Thanks.

Dylan xD, try playing an induction aid as you go to sleep. It will heavily autosuggest you and stimulate brainwaves. Try really's mp3

This riff works too

D----2---5---7------2---5---8-7----2---5---7----5-2
A----2---5---7------2---5---8-7----2---5---7----5-2

Here is my personal riff, though. It comes out pretty trippy and is essentially just Maj7, 7, and Sus chords played by individual strings.

E----------0--0---------------0--------------0---------------1
B-------1------------------1--------------3---------------1---
G----2------------------0--------------2---------------2------
D-3------------------2--------------0---------------0---------
A-----------------2--------------0---------------0------------
E-------------------------------------------------------------

What a Coincidence, I downloaded that yesterday but have not had the chance to use it. So do I use it while going to sleep for a DILD/EILD Or listen to it while trying to WILD or before a WILD attempt?


Thanks.

Do it during a WILD, preferrably. If you've got time, like on a weekend, try out my VOSCA. Uses this MP3 and a WBTB kind of motion.

hey i play the violin too!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
