Oh my god. I just saw Isaura String Quartet at a music festival in Carlsbad. They did one piece that was a minimalist (or post minimalist?) drone piece and it was one of the most amazing experiences of my life. It was in a cathedral and I think I was at one of the best places for it soundwise because the room swayed and flowed with the music. I didn't even realize that I was tearing up during the performance and I needed a good while to gain my resolution.
I had a beer with lunch before I saw it but I was not even intoxicated when I saw it. Crazy to experience music like that.
I've no idea what song it was but if I find it I'll post it.
