BBC Life – Plants
28 MarOne of my favorite things to do in the period of recuperation from a psychedelic experience is to watch a good nature film. While much of the stuff we usually watch is hardly bearable in the sensitive state of mind following these types of voyages, nature films are almost always harmoniously attuned with psychedelic afterglow. This short video clip from the 2009 BBC show Life shows one-year’s growth of the nature in a forest, in less than a minute’s time. It’s extraordinary not only as a technical feat but also as a paean to nature. The full show (51 minutes) is also highly recommended, especially for the types of situations described above.
“Out of Space” by The Prodigy
27 MarThe 90s were haunted by the sample from Max Romeo’s Chase the Devil thanks to The Prodigy’s Out of Space single. One of the classics.
“Timber” by Coldcut & Hexstatic
13 SepAlso check out Natural Rhythm here on dpv. Both are part of the Natural Rhythm Trilogy.
“Wuthering Heights” by Kate Bush
9 AugI can’t believe I have not yet posted the video for Kate Bush’s “Wuthering Heights”. Above is the first version; in the official us version of the video for the song (below) her madness shines just as bright, and while the flow of her Ausdruckstanz can be considered psychedelic anyways, the first version video emphasizes that aspect perfectly.
“Supper’s ready” by Genesis (live 1974)
14 JunAnother epic display of well-mannered madness by the lovely (early prog version of) Genesis. (also: witness Peter Gabriel transform from a very early proto goth into a beautiful flower)
