albums to rec include: Pop (incomprehensibly beautiful nature-based ambient), Quique (ambient techno with beautiful almost shoegazey guitars), 76:14 (downtempo/chillout masterpiece), 94diskont (constructed entirely of the sounds of skipping CD's), Endless Summer (probably my biggest recommendation out of all of these), From Here We Go Sublime (minimal techno, the bounciest and danciest of the recs)

sorted by genre, some are forthcoming but all have at least some singles out if not the whole project
alternative/singer-songwriter:
claire rousay - sentiment, experimental/sound collage artist makes an indie guitar ballad album, think boygenius with weirder production
South Hill Experiment - South Hill & Friends, S/H/E are like The Wrecking Crew but in modern times. basically a jam band fronted by two brothers who feature a rotating cast of other musicians/vocalists/rappers. this EP is their latest collaborative project with some folks
Laetitia Sadier - Rooting for Love, solo album of the frontwoman of Stereolab. production has some electronic quirks but mostly kind of alt rock at its core. lots of songs are in french, themes of love and conflict and commentary on social concepts
electronic:
Nourished by Time - Catching Chickens EP, this guy is like the David Byrne of rnb in terms of unique vocal affectation and song concepts. instrumentation is very inspired by 80s/90s club music and early digital production
Thy Slaughter - Soft Rock, actually a very energetic electronic pop record, the last PC music release EVER :(
Squarepusher - Dostrotime, idm wackiness but in the best way. if you just want to jump head first into some bleep bloop drum break madness this is your album (first track is chill guitar instrumental tho)
shoegaze/dream pop
Punchlove - Channels, some CLASSIC style shoegaze here, less pure walls of sound and more melodic and rhythmically driven but though that typical fog you'd expect from the genre
crushed - extra life, vocals are great, production blends triphop/dream pop so the atmosphere across the record is stunning but groove-driven

all 3+ stream of consciousness hours at the roxie in SF (spooky and weirdly proportioned venue, see photo) and the 4k remaster still looked like shit (i.e. as good as you can remaster early 2000s digital camcorder footage) and there was one dead pixel of green hanging out for the whole movie and somehow it was still the most immersive and unsettling experience cinema has ever given me and walking back to the parking garage in san francisco at 1am (which was closed and we had to call the garage for someone to come open) made me feel like i was in the movie FFO: browsing r/liminalspaces, psychological horror video games, eastern european swag/horror, being confused
