Japan is still quite strict on the old  , so people are very careful with it! Stoned at a recording session is definitely not very common, but I am sure I can get you a copy for your own pleasure once it is done  . Thanks for chiming in!!
Thanks a lot for all advice and feedback!

So if Japan is really strickt in those
regards, khmmm, then your nation is naturally crazy (in a very positive way) - I just happen to know a lot of your "totally over the limit far out" bands that I like - Shibusashirazu, Afrirampo, Acid Mothers Temple, Boredoms, Ruins... it they produce those things without any chemical aids - my respect doubles
(and I am not for prohibition - just respect really creative and crazy people that can achieve THAT state of mind without too much external help...)
BTW - try to add just a pinch more of the ambient mics, too - some blowing noise is sexy and cool...
P.S. When I speak of space I mean like this:
www.satoration.org/Zarja_excrpt.mp3
It is a little larger band, but feat. also sax, piano & bass - the mix uses two sets of ambience mics - one was positioned far away at the live FOH mixing board and another closer to the stage (both ORTF stereo), the rest is spot miced... I used quite a lot of natural ambience + just a pinch of artificial reverb... I need to hear air around instruments...
