Hey freakas, anyone knows where or what to read about night/forest/jungle/tribal stuff?
Some of you hear music to get inspiration, some of you go out and walk, some of you smoke a stick and some of you usually go to lala land.
I read things, the more psychedelic the better, it sets my mind to create night forest and tribal atmospheres and from there i build tunes. So do you know about some webpages or books or something to read about the history of something psychedelic.
I'm not sure i'm being understood, but thx anyways.

Douglas Hoffstadter's "Eternal Golden Braid" or "I am a strange loop" - not as much for night time forest music, but definitely a psychedelic must for anyone keen on understanding the mind.
Leonard Cohen's (yes, the singer, he writes books too) "Beautiful Losers" is probably the most twisted, chaotic, and utterly beautiful piece of literary mind wizardry I have read.
If that one works for you, or if you wish something more visceral and dark, Henry Miller's "Tropic of Cancer" has some passages that will also do. Here's a sample:
Quote:
| "I love everything that flows," said the great blind Milton of our times. I was thinking of him this morning when I awoke with a great bloody shout of joy: I was thinking of his rivers and trees and all that world of night which he is exploring.
I too love everything that flows: rivers, sewers, lava, semen, blood, bile, words, sentences. I love the amniotic fluid when it spills out of the bag. I love the kidney with it’s painful gall-stones, it’s gravel and what-not; I love the urine that pours out scalding and the clap that runs endlessly; I love the words of hysterics and the sentences that flow on like dysentery and mirror all the sick images of the soul..." |

If you like techtrance, cyberpunk is a must: I highly recommend Niel Stephenson's "Snow Crash" or, of course, the classic: Gibson's "Neuromancer" (though I feel like many here have probably read that  )
I have plenty more, at least in the way of books
