“Solen Stiger Upp” by Dungen

In the world of the Swedish psychedelic group Dungen the musical taste has not really changed since the late sixties/ early seventies. But year after year things have been refined to perfection.

“Sprout and the Bean” by Joanna Newsom

Joanna Newsom crafts fragile psychedelic folk tunes. Both music and lyrics to “Sprout and the Bean” are reminiscent of the solo work of Syd Barrett in their childlike, magical simplicity and playfulness. The video accompanies this very well with its chalk animations and the empty classroom and enchanted woods settings.

Some songs from The Mighty Boosh

6 Apr

The Mighty Boosh is an hilarious, surreal, mystical and highly psychedelic  BBC comedy show created by Julian Barrat and Noel Fielding. Besides featuring a talking gorilla, the show’s cast of characters also includes a variety of shamans and drug dealers.

Somewhat surprisingly perhaps, The Mighty Boosh, has not only gained a cult status, but also attracted massive following with over one million people watching the first episode of the show’s third season.

Most of the episodes are available to watch on YouTube, and if you are a fan of psychedelic comedy, you’ve got to watch at least a few episodes. You won’t regret it.

Here is one of the classic episodes from the series, The Legend of Old Gregg:

When Do We Eat (2005)

14 Jan

When do we eat is a  film about a Seder meal that goes wrong, but then actually right, after the father of the family has been surreptitiously dosed with MDMA and LSD.  Except for the ending it is a pretty awesome psychedelic comedy which actually deals in a funny intelligent way with the psychedelic experience. Stick around for the last 40 seconds of the video to catch the trippy bits.
