Music is important for any psychedelic journey. It provides structure and arc, evokes emotions, and invites imagery. It can be comforting and familiar, or can push us beyond the known.
One reliable way to deepen any psychedelic journey is to listen to unfamiliar music with unpredictable or minimal structure. Always choose music that does not contain words in a language that you speak, unless your intention is to deeply insert the message of the lyrics into your psyche.
Here are some links to playlists I have designed for KAP sessions and retreats:
