Very strange occurrances lately...
Alright so lately as you may know, I have been listening to God Is An Astronaut. I love them... their music is incredibly hypnotic and relaxing to me. But it's having a very strange effect on my mind.
It's bringing up memories that I have completely forgotten... things buried inside my mind... images and moments from my early childhood (no, not being raped or molested or anything like that. That's never happened to me)... good memories, but strange and exotic feelings. It's hard to explain. Kind of like Deja Vu, but not.
This has been happening each and every time I listen to them. I've found that it really hits me hard when I listen to "Golden Sky" (posted below.) It's quite frightening, to be honest. Yet it's addicting and peaceful. I'm also getting this feeling where it feels as if my spine is being gradually and gently lifted out of my back. Like I said, this is extremely bizarre.
I don't know if anybody here is familiar with any sort of scientific terminology or has had any experiences such as this, but I would like to hear your input. Thanks.

Angel dust and listen.
Since I've been listening to them while going to sleep, I've been able to consciously control my dreams. Not what I do in them, but how they operate. I have been able to change the environment and the events which occur.
I swear on whatever you hold most sacred that I am NOT making ANY of this up.
its the magic of post-rock
i think it has something to do with the frequency of the music and how it affects your ear drum/balance..... may be why it only happens when (I) listen to the music with headphones
As far as the dreams thing, coincidental?
The wake-initiated lucid dream occurs when "the sleeper enters REM sleep with unbroken self-awareness directly from the waking state".[30] There are many techniques aimed at entering a WILD. The key to these techniques is recognizing the hypnagogic stage, which is within the border of being awake and being asleep. If a person is successful in staying aware while this stage occurs, that person will eventually enter the dream state while being fully aware that it is a dream.
There are key times when this state is best entered. While success at normal bedtime after having been awake all day is difficult, it is relatively easy after sleeping for 3–7 hours or in the afternoon during a nap. Techniques for inducing WILDs abound. Dreamers may count, envision themselves climbing or descending stairs, chant to themselves, control their breathing, count their breaths to keep their thoughts from drifting, concentrate on relaxing their body from their toes to their head, or allow images to flow through their "mind's eye" and envision themselves jumping into the image to maintain concentration and keep their mind awake, while still being calm enough to let their bodies sleep.
During the actual transition into the dream state, dreamers are likely to experience sleep paralysis, including rapid vibrations,[20] a sequence of loud sounds, and a feeling of twirling into another state of body awareness, or of "drifting off into another dimension", or like passing the interface between water into air, face front, body first, or the gradual sharpening and becoming "real" of images or scenes they are thinking of and trying to visualize gradually, which they can actually "see", instead of the indefinite sensations they feel when trying to imagine something while wide awake.
