I haven’t partaken in any cannabis for decades, but if I did take that gummy, it certainly wouldn’t be just one song on my menu.

It lasts for hours, after all...

So, I would have full buffet of songs lined up.

Among my choices would be:

Yes - Close to the Edge

King Crimson - Larks Tongue in Aspic, Red, Starless and Bible Black

Mahavishnu Orchestra - Inner Mounting Flame, Lost Trident Sessions

The Contortionist - Language

Eberhard Weber - Colours of Chloe

Pat Metheny and Lyle Mays - As Falls Wichita, So Falls Wichita Falls

PFM - Per un Amico

Gong - Gong's "Flying Teapot" trilogy is pretty much designed to accompany this sort of experience.  

And since I wasn’t into contemporary, atonal and avant-garde classical music back in the days when I did partake, I would certainly line up some choices from this, too.

I would expect the overall complexity of this stuff to benefit from being under the influence.

Such as:

Elliott Carter - Concerto for Orchestra (1969), Piano Concerto (1965), or many more

Charles Wuorinen - 4th Piano concerto (2003), Iridule for oboe and six players (2006)

Or Bruno Maderna, Joan Tower, Unsuk Chin, Magnus Lindberg, and others.
