it's ironic that james brown- the godfather of soul- pioneered the musical techniques that would go on to make soulfulness untenable in the modern age.

as we're increasingly detached from physical experience (dematerialisation) music's emulating physical sensation to compensate.

your best observation on dissenus.
rave can be a spiritual experience, or a gnostic experience. especially when it's the right kind of free party techno or manic hardcore/jungle. but it's anything but sincerely religious. you go back home and all those smiles mean fuck all, oh, of course people selectively try and bring them into the present by misremembering what really went on, but it's the same with seeing pharoah in the 2010s. it's a staged gnosis.
It's closer to carying out the rudiments of a ritual as opposed to totally breaking through. but not all magic or alchemy is religious. in fact most of it isn't, it's the science of the mind.

Strong disagree. Much like when tripping it's up to you how you deal with the situation. Do you have the mental strength to push out those feelings of awareness and let yourself go? I'd imagine London is one of the hardest cities to allow this to happen. Yet I still managed. Mind power.

taking soul, desoulifying it and then wacking on internet-era surface level emotional taxonomy in the title.
that's not religion though is it? Did pharoah really allow you to achieve a cosmological guide map for your life? Did he permit for you to develop an ethical compass? I highly doubt it.

does religion?

Yeah it was just because you said it's unthinkable nowadays. When there are a few chinks of guiding light poking through here and there. Rarer and rarer they become, however. And yeah, they're directly connected to 'then'
But I can't help but think all it takes is a mental tweaking for us to be able to tap back in. Might take rethinking a lot of the current status quo. Many things we hold dear might need looking at from a fresh perspective. Not discarded. Just better assessed.
I have a low sense of self due to some heavy psych sessions (and no doubt mental illness) and I think that helps with my ability to adapt to ways of thinking like water in a bowl and then a cup.
also on the bad trip thing. well that's that but i've also gone psychotic on drugs. and actually the experience itself was quite pleasant. i never thought i was having a bad trip. it's only when i found myself in a hospital bedroom with a weeks worth of missing memories that i was like wtf happened?

You're comparing the work of one man to scriptures and thought which took millenia to develop. But yes, when listening to him, especially live, my heart opened a bit more and compassion for my fellow man expanded. Do you not also feel that when listening to the creator has a masterplan?

"peace and happiness for every man" isn't really third's thing
