I would not expect most of this music to have very much appeal to most at PA, but these appeal to me.

Here are a few that I appreciate from the list:

Oneohtrix Point Never "Freaky Eyes", Camila Moreno's "Piedad" and James Holden's "The Beginning & End of the World" are three that really speak to me.

I have been very into Oneohtrix Point Never (east to remember if you pronounce it like One-Oh-Tricks -- think radio station, 106.9, but Never) of late.  Some of my favourite albums this far of Daniel Lopatin under that name are Replica (2011), R Plus Seven (2013), Garden of Delete (2015) and Again (2023)

RYM gives his overall discography genres as Progressive Electronic, Ambient, Glitch, Electronic, Art Pop, and Neo-Psychedelia.  With garden of Delete and some others he uses plunderphonics (and it has Post-Industrial qualities).

Rate Your Music writes:

Plunderphonics, or Audio Piracy as a Compositional Prerogative, and refers to the compositional technique of utilising and manipulating one or more pre-existing audio sources to create a new composition. It is an Experimental form of sound art that uses similar techniques found in Sound Collage, but differs in its use of sampling, which is intended to be recognizable to the listener. Compared to music that simply uses samples, plunderphonics is driven almost entirely by the sonic desires of the composer, using the samples as an instrument in their own right, as opposed to using them as an added "extra" within a song.

I have long enjoyed sound collages.  I find the results in Freaky Eyes almost mesmeric, wonderful anyway, especially as combined with his original electronic, ambient music.  I like the eclecticism.  It works so well for me despite any apparent randomness.  Just to see at least one vote in the poll, I'll give one to this (could have been for others, of course, this being my list of music I appreciate).

Camila Moreno is an art pop artist, and there are trip hop qualities to that piece.  I got into trip hop from Massive Attack, Morcheba and especially Portishead.  There are many I like with trip hop qualities.  I find her some of her music both lovely and interesting (note that Agnes Obel is really lovely imo).  She does seem to play up the racy and daring angle with a video that feels like a wet tee shirt contest in a nunnery etc.  Sexiness sells, but to me that's more artsy and subversive.    RYM describes the album as Art Pop, Singer-Songwriter as well as Trip Hop, Chamber Pop, Dream Pop, Art Rock, Indie Pop.

That James Holden album is described at RYM as Progressive Electronic, Nu Jazz as its primary genres and
Krautrock, Spiritual Jazz, Neo-Psychedelia, Post-Rock as secondary ones.  I love the album and that piece.

I feel like I might as well mention the others:

That Agnes Obel album is described at RYM as Singer-Songwriter, Chamber Pop, as well as Chamber Pop, Chamber Folk, Dark Folk.

The Daughters album is described as Noise Rock and Industrial Rock primarily and secondary genres, No Wave, Post-Hardcore, Art Punk, Post-Punk.  I do like my Industrial and Noise Rock.

That Herhums album is described as Psychedelic Folk (I ove acid folk) as well as  Ambient Pop and Chamber Folk.

BRUIT ≤ ( as I failed to write it before) is primarily post-rock and also described secondarily as Ambient, Drone, Modern Classical, Chamber Music, Electronic, Neoclassical Darkwave.

Uboa's latest dis described as Death Industrial, Dark Ambient, as well as secondarily, Industrial Rock, Neoclassical Darkwave, Harsh Noise, Glitch.  Not an easy listening album, and I actually I chose feels the most optimistic to me (I love otay:oni, so was very happy to see this collaborative track).

Somebody voted for Uboa; thank you.  This poll might be feeling just a little less lonely now if it experienced emotions -- my loneliness remains the same, however.   I'll give another vote now to Holden.  It may be tall order, but if anyone enjoyed anything discovered in this playlist,  I would hugely appreciate that being mentioned.  And I love the "writing" element of forums, so please comment on your choices.

Least liked:- Daughters - Satan in the Wait 

I listened to all eight songs, although not all the way through, but you probably guessed that already. 

^^ We're into a heat wave here with a heat dome, plenty of health warnings, but I don't find it bad yet (and it would get worse where you are).  It was nice and cool last night.  I do live in a neighbourhood with plenty of nature which helps with the heat, at least for now, as places are getting very densified due to the housing shortage due to very high immigration rates.  I hope to invest in the arctic before it becomes a tropical paradise!  

^ Thanks Paul, that's more than I would expect of most people here.  I'd say that's an efficient use of your time.  I often just play bits and pieces of a track (scan/ scrub through) to get a feel for the whole song --  trying to find the parts that might be of interest, which can open up the whole thing for me or let me know if I am interested in exploring further.  I find it works well for me..  I got quite good at scanning back in VCR days as a youth looking for the naughty bits.   Now I am more likely to use my PVR for that.
