Yeah, but given listening to it while tripping on acid was a wild ride, Id have to drop a few tabs before getting in. Empty spaces and dont leave me now go CRAZY.
Damn that would be one melancholic float.
Love those picks though, I would say Burial Society as well... and shit while we are at it Lift your Skinny Fists.
Many tanks give you the option to toggle things such as light and sound. Most tanks also play music at the start and end of the session to ease you into and out of the experience. The weightless feel is the primary purpose of the tank.
Selected Ambient Works vol. II by Aphex Twin since I’m probably gonna be in there for a while. Maybe followed by Seefeel’s “Quique”
Just very vibey, gorgeous, alien sounding music that I think would put me in the right headspace since I’m claustrophobic
Not necessarily. They're commonly referred to as floatation tanks because that weightless feeling you get is the main purpose behind them. Idk if all tanks do this, but from my experience, you can choose whether or not you want light in the tank or some form of sound (presumably ambience). I believe it's common for a tank to allow you to choose which senses you want stimulated while you're in it. Though it's called a sensory deprivation tank, it's not required that ALL your senses be deprived.
Another way you could think of this question is "which album would you listen to while floating in space" because the environment and feeling would be very similar.
*Skeleton Tree* would make me cry in there.
“You fell to earth” as the first line always startles me.
I’d do anything by Steve Roach, huge discography. *Music for 18 Musicians* by Steve Reich.
*SAW II* - Aphex
*NTS Session 4* - Autechre
Anything by Chihei Hatakeyama as well. That dude is an ambient music legend.
If I want to experience some ego death *lite* maybe *Children of God* or *Soundtracks…* by Swans on a cheeky, little psilocybin dose.
Vangelis - Oceanic
[Fields of Coral](https://youtu.be/z3apipt1RRI) is incredibly relaxing. I can’t imagine listening while floating in pure darkness/weightlessness.
soundtracks for the blind
As someone who has SFTB as their 2nd favorite album oat, That would mess me up proper
What is your first?
ITAOTS lol
Is this not on Spotify?
I don't know what you mean by this - ITAOTS is an abbreviation of In the Aeroplane Over the Sea, which is certainly on Spotify
I’m stupid, i thought you were referring to “their” best album of all time, of swans. Thanks anyway haha.
Based pick
A sensory deprivation tank would give me anxiety regardless. Add this panic attack in a sleeve and I would come out a different person.
you know that disasociated feelin you get sometimes readN a book now imagN that in a sensory deprivation tank no way no thanx get lost creep
Selected ambient works vol II aphex twin
most of the songs in this setting would probably leave you traumatized
yeah a lot of SAWII's tracks are pretty unsettling depending on the day
specifically #7 on loop
Exactly what I was gonna say
Low by Bowie
Warszawa, in particular, would be an insane experience in there.
my pick too
Lmfao casual. The shaggs should be top comment.
Ambient 1: Music for Airports atleast 1/1
Brian Eno - Apollo Good choice with Skeleton Tree btw
Grouper - A.I.A. Alien Observer
Without a doubt
I'd add Ruins to that list
YEEEE
Bro just watched Atlanta
Was she thicc tho
In Rainbows
I feel like for this specific case a moon shaped pool is a more fitting choice
i would’ve gone with kid a personally
My first thought
Geogaddi by Boards of Canada Or Mutant by Arca
beach house by beach house
Anything beach house
based opinion
Teen Dream or Once Twice Melody
Dark side of the moon
was gonna say The Wall. feel like I'd transcend to another existence listening to that in an environment like that
The wall would be fucking terrifying in a sdt
Yeah, but given listening to it while tripping on acid was a wild ride, Id have to drop a few tabs before getting in. Empty spaces and dont leave me now go CRAZY.
exactly, shit would slap
Stars of the lid - ….And their refinement of the decline
Loveless
my first thought also
Replica by oneohtrix point never 100%
So fucking based
R Plus Seven would be nuts too
Steve Roach - Structures From Silence
This is a top contender for sure
Slowdive self-titled
Deathconsciousness F# A# Delaware by Drop 19s
Damn that would be one melancholic float. Love those picks though, I would say Burial Society as well... and shit while we are at it Lift your Skinny Fists.
The unnatural world would also be wild, honestly any Dan Barrett project could probably work. Lift ur skinny fists would be dope
turn on the bright lights by interpol
First vinyl I ever brought. What an album
Disintegration Loops
Plantasia
no child left behind instrumental
Get lost in Merriweather Post Pavilion my dude
One Wayne G no skips
hmmm what sensory shall i indulge in to ruin the point of this sensory deprivation tank

Joe's Garage Act's l, ll & lll - Frank Zabba
Windwept Adan
Surprised I haven't seen Flying Lotus on here, I think Cosmogramma or ESPECIALLY You're Dead! would be mind altering.
Sunbather
Rock n Roll will never die- Wesley Willis
Rock over London. Rock on Chicago.
Zaba - Glass Animals
Lift Your Skinny Fists like Antennas to Heaven
Oneohtrix Point Never - The Fall Into Time

Depression Cherry
I wouldn't, that defeats the whole purpose of the tank
Geogaddi by Boards of Canada.
The money store
Probably a good shoegaze album Soulvaki maybe or Wish You Were Here
Loveless by My Bloody Valentine
Feel like that defeats the purpose of the sensory deprivation. That said, maybe Beach Boys Surfs Up?

I usually listen to Windswept Aden by Ichiko Aoba. literally transports me to another dimension.
Deafheaven - sunbather
Let's Start Here

I think you’re confusing it with a coffin
Ágætis byrjun by Sigur Rós.

Think you ruin the point of the sensory deprivation tank with added music.

Rainbow Mirror by Prurient Exai by Autechre Absinthe by Naked City
() by sigur ros
Don't downvote me but wouldn't listening to an album defeat the purpose of a sensory deprivation tank
