What is "psychedelic music"?
Psychedelic music is a genre that emerged in the 1960s and is known for its experimental and unconventional sounds. It often includes long instrumental solos, unusual effects, and complex rhythms to create a sense of altered perception. The lyrics frequently explore themes of mind expansion, spirituality, and personal transformation. The music is designed to enhance the experience of being under the influence of mind-altering substances, though it can be and is best enjoyed without them. Psychedelic music frequently features distorted guitars, echo effects, and elaborate production techniques, aiming to transport listeners to a different, imaginative space.
