3) jazz- proggy, fusion
4) female vocs appear center w/ experimental prog rock that turns middle eastern at end
5) environmental/bird sounds w/ downtempo chill loopy electronica
6) chill coo electro feel, jazzy real drums
7) (my player wouldnt play this track)
8) "field" recordings layered in noise that builds into tribal toned percussion
9) noise ensemble- guitar, drums, etc
10) slight dub flavor to overwhelming bass tones and use of echo, but its mostly space rock, psychedelia a la KFJC fare
11) cool upbeat sample art meix of pop and indie
12) experimental jazz fusion
13) prog jazz, sax led
14) sci fi trippy rock, slow industrial dark feel
15) spacey prog experimental echoey instrumental jam
16) sophmoric voiceover about dreams, whoa trippy dude! yawn!
