1200 Micrograms

1200 Micrograms (sometimes credited as 1200 Mics, or 1300 Mics) are a psychedelic trance act from Ibiza. The members are Riktam and Bansi, from GMS, Raja Ram and Chicago. The name 1200 Micrograms comes from a Raja Ram taking a 1200 microgram dose of LSD while working on the groups first album. Raja Ram told his friend Paul Taylor, "God Paul I took 1200 micrograms!" (Raja was experiencing mental block on a specific track and took this dose of LSD in order to finish the track). Their music is known for the heavy use of guitars and a focus on themes related to the places where they sampled drugs.
