Last time I saw one of these threads 2 or 3 weeks ago I found some nice albums in it, thanks to the peeps who posted Agonal Lust, Mechthild von Leusch and Hunting lodge, among others. I have been enjoying thoseanythings welcome so long as its a bit weird or unconventional, drone, noise, loops, ambient, acoustic, bleeps or w/e. if youre in doubt whether something belongs in the thread, post it anywayI'll start with Black Seas Of Infinity - Thy Secret Shall Stain the Heart of the Ekstasis (Aleim Edam) from the album Heiros Gamos. these guys started out as a black metal band but quickly morphed into doing more experimental stuffhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HSy_7I0q1Pw

Steven R Smith, aka Hala Strana, records some sketchy fuzz guitar droney stuff under the name Ulaan Kholthis is From Overland They Came in Droves from the album La Catacomb. or it might be L.A. Catacomb, idk, cos he's from Los Angeles and La Catacomb seems like a weird name and if hes doing the French thing it should be catacombehttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-v4O9IT-aAQ
pretty accessible for Nurse With Wound, Thunder Perfect Mind has plenty of structure, it just a long time to develop over the two 20-30 minute trackshttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nEEB4wqFrTE

https://youtu.be/SQAJhb2-ffIA very physical piece for solo timpano beautifully performed.
if you only know them from their bullshit (!) like releasing an .exe that attempts to sequentially generate a piece of music longer than the current age of the universe and similar shenanigans, give their actual music a chance, they did some pretty cool psychedelic dronehttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tzEahueSin0
>>129441530this was kinda weird and between genres. Technically funeral doom but it's got some weird thick gazey production going on
remember this meme album?
>>129449619新しいデラックスライフ (New Deluxe Life) - ▣世界から解放され▣ (Sekai kara kaihō sa re , or Liberated from the World)An EP of vaporwave as sound collage or noise music, made under one of Internet Club's aliases.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sGHVE7BTW-o
>>129441530Any good acts that blend power electronics with rhythmic noise other than Haus Arafna?
currently listening this, Roberto Musci and Giovanni Venotsa are two Italian composers who work samples from African and Indian folk music into their compositionshttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_-yhvKR9wKo

heres Synapsecape - Raw, theyre a German industrial/electronics band. most of the album is noisy and rhythmic, theres a few ambient tracks too but the higher energy stuff is way better imohttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=asI3vJtRXoU
what happens when you give an Australian a guitar, things to hit with a stick and too many drugs? this, apparently. it sounds formless and aimless on a quick listen but stick with it, the guys a geniushttps://267lattajjaa.bandcamp.com/album/alltounia
anyone have noise/experimental recs that feel joyous ecstatic, uplifting, crescendoing?

>>129446632>their bullshit (!) like releasing an .exe that attempts to sequentially generate a piece of music longer than the current age of the universe Story?
>>129452737That pretty much describes it. It wasn’t the only time Bull of Heaven did something similar, they had a habit of releasing both actual music files that were extremely long and a couple of series that generated literally impossibly long, looping pieces but which did have theoretically finite lengths. For an example of the former their album Rituals Of The Elements And Feasts Of The Times is over 100 hours long, you have to dl it in parts and stitch them together, even then it crashed a lot of media players when you tried to open it, then there were many examples like the album ΩΣPx0(2^18×5^18)p*k*k*k and lcm(2,3,5,7,11,13,17,19,23,29,31,37,41,43,47,53,59,61,67,71,73,79)see https://www.discogs.com/release/6662697-Bull-Of-Heaven-310-%CE%A9%CE%A3Px0218518pkkkhttps://www.discogs.com/release/19463239-Bull-Of-Heaven-259-lcm2357111317192329313741434753596167717379
>>129450783i found it in a shillthread years ago, i just really like it

so does anyone else really hate the label "experimental" because it sounds so pretentious but you’ve given up trying not to use it because you like the weird musics and cant think of another suitable term?
>>129454582I don't find "experimental" pretentious, to me it just means trying something different. "Avant-garde" is more pretentious, because it assumes the artist is at the forefront of an artform or predicting its future.
The Gray Field Recordings - Hypnagogiamostly acoustic ambient/sound collage stuff occasionally breaking out into strummed folk melodies with singing, very chill and mellow while staying plenty weird/otherworldly enoughhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XfIWWGj17hQ
Time Attendant - Tournamentsnoisy techno bleeps, maybe not as out there as some other stuff but good nonethelesshttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UHnEVzWUHek
>>129454582>so does anyone else really hate the label "experimental" because it sounds so pretentiousThe inverse of trying to make up new genre terms for every single slightly weird musical track to me seems to be far more pretentious. But to be fair half of the experimental stuff people label these days is just noise or ambient.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tQ8cgLsHesA
>>129460893the reason I dont like the term is because music really isnt experimental. the essence of an experiment is its something you do to find out what result you get. an artist having an idea of the music he wants to create, no matter how weird it is, and then crafting something with that intentional end goal in mind is pretty much the exact opposite of an experiment. but I am self aware enough to understand thats just me being autistic and pedantic so I try not to go on about it every time someone uses the word.in other news, I thought that track you posted was going to be something completely different based on >P-project - Trancemission that sounds like 303/goa trance type artist-album names. but no, interesting stuff. check out >>129460791you might like Time Attendant
>>129461003Thanks anon
Alahuta - First Connexiondrones, sparse guitar and percussion with expressive vocalshttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h2jLob4lT64there are two more albums or EPs that are more or less similar, both good to, if you like First Connexion you'll like Dark Paths Black Spirits and A Hack in the Woods tothen theres Corps-pi, Mon Coeur Saigne Encore Plus and Enregistrement à la Chapelle Sainte Anne which kind of standing apart in the discog, all consisting of twenty+ minute tracks that push the envelope a little more with long, subtle progressions and manic caterwauling, really nice
bumping with Burning Microphone. Does what it says on the tin.

Silvester Anfang are a bunch of Belgian weirdos who describe themselves as a "free folk droneband" who play that kind of loose, sketchy music that feels like it should all fall apart but never quite doeshttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7lgx38sEvicthere is an offshoot band called Sylvester Anfang II (the different spelling of Silvester vs Sylvester is intentional) who make "free form psychedelic rock." They insist that the two projects are separate and should not be confused. you can kind of see what they mean but the vibe is consistenthttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hF5yGa4GOgs
The Cosmic Dead are a Scottish psych rock band but some of their stuff is very spacey and drawn out such as the album Orbiting Salvation, whence comes this track. most of the rest of their albums are closer to normal psych/space rock but usually tend to have a sludgier sound than many other bandshttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Uqt4ycuzu80
>>129450690thanks >>129450787already know this guy, Dayton fella. but thanks, good stuff.
vague strumming on guitars, drones and noise, random collections of ambient sounds, Various Artists - Gold Leaf Branches is a very long 4 disc compilation that tours various styles of weird music from the almost normal to the quite odd. dip into the full album youtube upload at half a dozen places and you'll still find more variety elsewhere on the albumhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f5RI5UXmTE0
