Mixing "under the influence"
I think its pretty awesome. Shrooms right now and DXM. Best damn time ive ever had mixing.
Anyone ever try? I find that I mix better with substances, much more enjoyable too.
LOL.. you THINK you mix better... record what you are spinning when stoned/drunk/trippin' and have a listen after...
Generally a drink or two and some of us do tend to mix better, tigher, etc... but trippin' on shrooms? would love to hear it.. 
im actualyl recording right now i cant wiat to hear it tomorrow
just wait till you get hppd man then its no fun anymore...
I like to drink in moderation when I play.
On a bean - I'm 50/50, it's either brilliance or terror.
When I'm high on herb I tend to have some issues for the first mix or two, then I'm all set.
On psychedelics... I don't spin on psychedelics.
You think you're on point while you're fucked up. But you're probably not. I few drinks are okay. But playing fully torqued is like getting fucked by a hot chick with herpes. It seems like you're having a good time right up to the point where you find the sores.
Personally, I played live once while completely twisted off my head. It was tragic. Tragic enough for reality to slap me senseless. Part of being a good dj is knowing how to emulate that "fucked up feeling" through your music, without being fucked up.
so basically fellas. i was reocroding my entire set.
but then realized it was on a 4 bar loop recoridng and i got nothing out of it but a looped noise recoridng. nice.

I've spun in a variety of states.
booze - i like to have a few before hitting the decks, it lowers inhibition and i'm able to relax and (as cheesy as it sounds) let the music flow
a pill - done it only a couple times, i get too excited and flail around too much, mixing is hit or miss
shrooms - only ever done in the privacy of my own home, i had to quit once the turntables started melting off the table, i knew it was my mind playing tricks on me but it's hard to mix when it looks like your decks are melting off the table while they're spinning
chronic - love it, although i tend to focus more on the music and what i'm playing than the crowd but i apparently still rock it solid
Oddest tracklist ever:
1 Daniel Mord - M.o.r.d (loco dice remix)
2 luciano - calypso 08 / fuki matters - god bless america acapella
3 blackstrobe - nazi trance fuck off
4 terry lee brown junior - insectisuicide / feralcode - next time
5 lawrence - along the wire
6 max avalerra - aura aero (superpitcher remix)
7 underworld - vanilla monkey (martinez hungry ghost mix)
8 kupon - zoom in
9 trentemoller - beta boy
10 daniel mehlhart - wach werden / jackson five - aint no sunshine
11 miss yetti - lovely loneliness (silversurfer remix)
12 grindvik - monuments
13 artificial latvamaki - song to the machine that built the sun
14 mark august warm
15 ditch - industrial zone
16 adam proll - tanz der teufel
17 nathan fake - the sky was pink
18 paul nazca - juste
19 agoria - baboul hair cuttin
20 agnes - non conformist acclaimed
idk how i thought that one up
Its a crap shoot for me.....it usually sounds good at the time, then when Im sober and listen I hate it.
Spin while receiving head. Its not hard...just hard to concentrate.

JUSt for this trend i made a mix....
high on some hard weed
drunk offa vodka
and i ate 2 mega shrooms ... ha i will post it up soon the name would be motionless speed ... LOL i am not even goihn to listen to it before i post ill jus what is said about it ... and my my it was an experience .. the crossfader seemed to move from left to right every few moments. really trippy
i like to get tipsy
not drunk...
never done any weed or e tho...
LOL... I could see this thread as being the "Experimentation" thread where everyone gets blitz on shroomz or acid and tries mixing and we all post our sets up... 
A couple of beers works wonders.
Stopped taking the beans and weed these days, however found that it just distracted me.
The trick when having just a few beers is to know when to slow down. I drank last night - the volume went right up and my ears are ringing today!
Jarv
tempted to rail 100mg of the K ive got here and have a go 
mixing would be fine for 15 mins or so then god knows what

I can't mix for shit drunk or high. I'll think it's good and while I'm transitioning it'll be nothing but hiccups. I can't imagine spinning on psychadelics.
I usually spin sober
once I tried spinning live after smoking some weed, and it was nice, had a good time.
I could mix well, but I'm better spinning sober.
spinning on mushrooms is fun..

Clovis - Mushrooms Live
For some reason I play the best funky house sets when im really drunk! I don't know it might be my calling! Because when I'm not drinking I would never play half the stuff I do when Im drunk
