I'm convinced it is tuning into another realm. This particular music is too coherent and enjoyable to be due to mind static, which has a very different quality. I think we who have these sensitive brains are compensated in many ways we don't always notice or appreciate. Fear gets in the way and murks up the instrument and we're left with static. But every so often, a pure wavelength get through and we hear it, see it, sense it, whatever. Most mystics, shamans, etc., have gone through intense depressions and darkness and despair before breaking through to the other side, as though their great gifts had to be forged in some way.
I think the practice is to be open to and aware of these subtle currents. Our brains are certainly sensitized, but the crazy experiences are so much more crude, blaring and in your face than the quieter ones that come with the Angels.
