So, I was wondering if anyone here is into classical persian/afghan/indian music. Ever since my first trip (during which I listened to a piece played on turkish Cura by Özgür Baba) I have listened to nothing else. I started off with afghan rubab, then to persian tar and setar, then tambour, then indian sitar and flute, and now I just go back and forth between these instruments. I'd love to discover new music in this genre and share my list if anyone's interested.

Please do 😀

Here is one artist (Shkoon) that mixes electric beats with oriental instruments: https://music.youtube.com/watch?v=TRy0AXcMlwo

Never tried tripping with this music, but it has a trippy feeling in itself 🙂

These are my most favorite pieces.

1. Avaz- e Abouata: Masnavi by Hossein Alizadeh and Afsaneh Raissai. Had a really intense trip on this yesterday. The poetry is from a relatively well known sufi poet molana Rumi. If you listen to it on spotify, make sure to listen the next 2 tracks in the album as well.

2. This is a list of a few tracks which belong together and must be heard in the same order. I couldn't find the album anywhere else so I'll have to post the spotify link. I usually go from track no. 3 to 7, from 8 onwards the theme changes. The poetry in track 7 is by another sufi poet, sheikh saadi.

3. Raag Bhairav is a morning raaga. This one time I got up before sunrise, went to the roof, sat there, listened to this and watched the sunrise, then came back and did vaped some dmt, it was a very intense and beautiful experience!

4. Raag Madhuvanti, one of the evening raagas. This piece is played on an afghan instrument called "Rubab" or "Rabab". It gets a bit too overwhelming at some points, feels like somethings squeezing your soul, at times it feels like pure madness... but that's what makes it beautiful!

5. Raag Bhairav again, on Rubab. I have been learning this myself. My experiences on raag Bhairav have been very similar. On the flute piece I met the sun god, followed by lady insanity, who was quite friendly, but took me into a realm of beautifully crafted insanity, and in the end I had visions of big huge antlers of moose like creatures. On the rubab piece I met sun goddess, she was even more powerful and divine than the sun god and in the end saw giant moose galloping across my room...

6. This one's on kurdish tambour. It's very intense, the guy's fingers are... beyond something human!

7. Özgür Baba, he was my first!

i really love sufi music, especially when tripping. here are a few things i like.

i am going to start with the great pakistany sufi superstar, nusrat fateh ali khan

. this is traditionnal qawwali music, a pakistany form of singing sufi poetry



an other great pakistany sufi singer is abida parveen, in this video she is singing verse of the great punk sufi buleh shah



faiz ali faiz is interesting, with the fusion he does of his song with other influence, like in this video with the great french guitarist titi robin



in a different style, an other interesting pakistany sufi singer is sain zahoor, quite famous nowdays, he is an illiterate punjabi sufi, who spent most of his life wandering from shrine to shrine.



i also like this song a lot



in the iranian front, i really dig their percussion. this zhikr once destroyed me on dmt



what is crazy in persian classical music is the use of tombak, what a psychedelic instrument

mohammed mortazavi always send me to the deepest region of hyperspace



naghmeh farahmand is great to

Late reply here.

For anyone following this thread I'd encourage you to look out for the Sonatas for Guitar and Harp section of the album Together by Alan Hovanhess.

High mysticism.
