<p>
Hey friends and strangers alike. If you've come here of your own accord,
that's really cool! It's more likely that I sent you here myself. You
may have asked for recommendations or I may have made my recommendations
your problem anyway.
</p>
<p>In either case, I hope you find something valuable here :)</p>

Experimental, Psychodelic, A beautifully noisey landscape.
Transported to another world. I listen to this often.

<h1>paradise footage 7</h1>
<h2>by BRDRML</h2>
</hgroup>
<p>
I would classify this album's genre more as 'collage' than
'vapourwave', though they are both apt terms to describe it. It is
heavy, is (in)harmonically bursting and momentous.

<p>
Unmatched in energy; A style never replicated. Also harmonically
bursting. Many tracks are made with data and things that weren't
intended to be used as instruments. Considered 'Trashwave' and
'Power-Electronics'.
