Now onto the other half of what I listen to: Noise!

Noise existed before, and helped to develop electronic music. In it's purest form, noise is the elemental ingredient of all music. I find it exhilarating and therapeutic - largely void of structure it allows you to focus on anything while playing it in the background. Experimental noise is usually a sub-genre of electronic music, and under it are many styles, namely drone / ambient (more synth-based), and 'musique concrete', which is a French term for collages of real world field recordings. Unbound to any of the 'rules' of music, the possibilities are as infinite as the imagination itself - or even random computer code. Welcome to this vast sonic exploration.

This song sounds so plain in my car and on the computer speakers but wow does it wake up on my DT990s/WA7.   Wish all my favorite electronica woke up this much.
 

 
 
Girls absolutely love this song.   I mean love, they seriously want it.
 

 
 
Huge fan of Koven but this is definitely one of his slowest songs.  That piano tho, and the sub-bass compliments so well.
