Topic: Do you ever dream in prog? Posted: April 29 2017 at 13:39 |
There have been a handful of times when I was dreaming that I was listening to a great piece of music that built up gradually and culminated in an awesome guitar solo. The problem was that I don't play guitar and I forgot the music within a minute of waking up anyway.
Did anyone else experience progressive music (either previously known or new) while dreaming?

Well, that was unexpected, though I'm not sure I'd post that in public, especially on a forum the wife frequents.

| Wow, I read once that Annie had a dream that her big toe formed a crucial ingredient in a Micky bourbon on the rocks. Raff had better be careful

Every time I close my eyes There`s another vivid surprise Another whole life waiting Chapters unfinished, fading
Closer now - Slowly coming into view I`ve arrived - Blinding sunshine beaming through
There`s a house I`m drawn into Familiar settings, nothing new There`s a pathway leading there With a haunting chill in the air
There`s a room at the top of the stairs Every night I`m drawn up there There`s a girl in the mirror Her face is getting clearer Young child won`t you tell me why I`m here?
In her eyes - I sense a story never told Behind the disguise - There`s something tearing At her soul

Classical music isn't dead, it's more alive than it's ever been. It's just not on MTV.

It happens quite often to me. Sometiems I also remember at least the main theme but when I really play it, it's not as good as in the dream.

I had that dream a few times, except that I play guitar, and usually forget the song once I'm awake.

If I ever start dreaming in prog, I'll probably step away from the headphones for a few days, or at the very least wash my brain out with some Metal Machine Music.

I sometimes dream of being at gigs at which imaginary music gets played. One that sticks in my mind was a Yes gig in a semi-circular auditorium where everything was white - seats, floor, ceiling, stage and backdrop. For some reason the lights did not go down when the band came on, so the whole place was brightly illuminated throughout. The lineup was Anderson, Squire, Howe, Bruford and some guy on keyboards that I didn't recognise doing mainly Hammond and Moog, supplemented by a horn section of three sax, two trumpets and a trombone and two guys on congas. Playing a kind of Yessified space jazz fusion with the horns taking a lot of what would usually be synth parts in Yes. It was f**king ace.

Wow, that's an awesomely specific recollection of the dream you had. It sounded epic.

Looks like there was one thing that wasn't White

I hear music all the time because I am recording my second CD (you won't hear the first one--I give them away), so when I am locked in that mode I can't get away from it.

I occasionally dream that I'm record shopping and coming across all these albums with outstanding cover-art by bands that don't even exist. And the artworks are just in my head, usually incorporating a mix of, say, Hipgnosis, Roger Dean, Rodney Matthews etc. all melded together to form something entirely new.....

It happens but not often (new music usually but I guess it feels better in the dream than it actually is); my love for football (soccer) dominates my love for music easily in dreams. Which is a pity because I love all music dreams whereas my football team sometimes gets a painful beating.

I have had dreams about being at Yes concerts or prog festivals. Usually the festivals are outdoors in some field.
I had a dream once where I was on stage with Yes playing keyboards with Jon Anderson. In the dream he told me to "move over." When I met Jon in person I told him about that dream and we re-enacted it with both of us playing air keyboards and him saying "yeah, move over." Priceless.

I had an excellent Yes dream last night! I was hanging out with the Relayer version of Yes...as I recall, Moraz was a scream!!
May all of your dreams be good ones!
