Reddit mentions: The best gospel music

I actually used to be a Christian Dj a long time ago, and I've kept up with the music (I actually haven't had time in the last year, so some of this may be older, but hyperlinks to Amazon are included - I'm sure most are on iTunes as well). I broke them down by what I consider the top 6 genres of music that MOST people listen to - I excluded genres like classical, chanting, opera, country, etc. These are all Christian artists that happen to love making music that I enjoy. Many of these artists have additional albums, but I linked the ones I know I like. EXPLORE!!!

|name|Decyfer Down|
|about artist|A band for just the past four years, Decyfer Down has already received solid airplay from mainstream modern and active rock stations in their hometown region of North Carolina, including WARQ in Columbia, South Carolina. Commenting on their early support of the band, the station's Music Director Matt Lee remarked, "From the first time I saw Decyfer Down, I knew that they were something special. They had an incredible stage presence to accompany their brilliant live show. Previous to seeing them perform, there was a buzz brewing on the local music scene about them and they lived up to it.

I found that praying with a recording helped at first. The first recording I bought was actually Vin Scully (yes, that Vin Scully). My favorite though my far is The Rosary is a Place. On busy days, I pray with this recording on my commute, and it's a fantastic mix of meditation, music, and prayers.

On that note, can anyone recommend other good recordings?

Sounds loco to me to not have a sitter. But you asked for advice and not judgement, so first off get yourself some Icaros imo. They will help you anchor and chill out if things get rough. The songs are meant to heal, guide and protect. Download some, listen to them. In particular I really like this one and this one is also excellent (and from Shipibo tradition, so it's very different from first one linked)

To some of your Qs:

Dose: Personally, I would take the whole amount in one dose. For me if the first cup doesn't work, the second one rarely helps. You're also a big guy like me and I've always had the feeling like standard cup sizes are a bit too small, so a slightly bigger dose may be just right.

Dieta - refrain from weed for as long as possible before hand. 1 week should be more than enough. You want to have maximum mental and emotional clarity and balance for the experience. Following a Plant based diet for a few days leading up is a great idea. No need to fast day of, in fact you may want to have a bit of something just for the blood sugar, but it's up to you. Just keep it very simple, a bit of fruit and a couple eggs for breakfast works great for me, then fast until it's time to drink, generally once it's as dark outside as it's gonna get.

Noise and waking people up: I hate to break it to you, but doing this in a house full of sleeping people who you don't want to know ... GOOD LUCK. Prepare to puke louder and more intensely than you've perhaps ever imagined puking. Giant, earthquake inducing, waterfall roaring, inter-dimensional puking. Personally I think drinking Aya in this situation is a recipe for unwanted complications. Like, what if these sleeping people awake and start pounding on your door to check on you? How will they understand what you are going through and what you might need from them? Sounds like trouble to me. At any rate you should be prepared for that.

"Morning Song" by The Digital Age.

I spent way too long searching for a link and can't find the full song anywhere. But you can listen to a clip of it here (it's the last song--and if you have Amazon Prime, it's free to stream). IMO it's definitely worth a dollar.

I also like 10,000 Reasons, by Matt Redman.

EDIT: Ooh, ooh, also Made Alive and I Am Living in a Land of Death by Citizens.

Awesome God (Album Version) http://www.amazon.com/dp/B0011ZT4MI/ref=cm_sw_r_an_am_ap_am_us?ie=UTF8 chickencone

My favorites are Music for a Winter's Eve, Anonymous 4's Wolcum Yule, In Nova Cantica:
Medieval and Traditional Carols, Chansons and Festive Dances and Sinfonye's Gabriel's Greeting which is more Christian-focused but completely medieval.
