Techno producer Jon Hopkins is sculpting the sounds that he wants to trip to

“to express the sweeping arc of the typical medium- or high-dose psilocybin session”—but this Hopkins was more interested in the title as “a contribution to the conversation about the music within this context and its importance.”“Whilst I don’t claim to know what’s best for people in that state, I took enormous care to make it something that felt warm and safe,” he explained. “It doesn’t mean it hasn’t got challenging moments.

The aforementioned cave section of the album—a three-track suite in its first half—features field recordings taken in Ecuador’s Tayos Caves. Hopkins said his trip there in 2018 provided the seed for. “It’s sort of fitting really that the starting point for the making of this album was deep underground in the Amazon, whereas the starting point for every other album has been sitting in a room in London or Los Angeles and playing around with sounds,” he explained.

The album opens with a series of bells that bend before sounding like they’re whooshing up into and past the stratosphere—with my eyes blindfolded, my mind stacked visual trails as the sound reverberated. Elsewhere, scraping sounds on “Love Flows Over Us in Prismatic Waves” etched thin patters into my mind’s eye and the sense of racing in “Deep in the Glowing Heart” put what felt like G force on my body. During the “Tayos Caves, Ecuador” suite, I felt confined and safe.

And this year&x2019;s event, which took place at the Miraval Berkshires Resort & Spa, featured a surprise performer: Nancy Wilson of the legendary rock group Heart.&xA0;During the conference, Nancy sat down with Marie Clarie editor-in-chief Sally Holmes and discussed how empowered she felt to be there. &x201C;Everybody in this room has kind of been through the mill in a men's only world, learned how to kick its ass and get ahead with it,&x201D; she said. Surrounded by such a group of inspiring women, Wilson revealed how much of a guiding light her mother, who she called a &x201C;steel magnolia,&x201D; was for her: &x201C;She was the nurturing, strong, steel, mother figure.&x201D;Wilson, who wrote and recorded her first-ever debut solo album You and Me during the pandemic, could relate closely to the conference&x2019;s overarching theme &x201C;Finding Forward.&x201D; &x201C;What drives me forward is the creative force of trying to make new art and bring that art to the world,&x201D; she said. &x201C;Because art is something that fixes the world.&x201D;Following her performance at Power Trip, Wilson reflected on her experience in the Berkshires and revealed what she took away from this year's event.How would you describe your experience at the Power Trip event?I was very happy to be there. The event itself is such a great representation of what's right about things in the world right now because women are being seen, and they're becoming more powerful. Usually when you say "power trip," you think "ego trip," but it was anything but. It was a great, forward-thinking, modern message to send to women that have had to fight and kick their way through the glass ceiling and prove to themselves, each other, and the world that they're
