note: A near minimalist electronica list. It’s not exactly ambient or true minimalist. It is far more intricate than early 90′s ambient, not as brutal as recent minimalist. Maybe soft IDM? These sounds have been bubbling across various blogs lately. I like the quiet texture, perfect for 3 a.m. headphone music. I mixed it with several favorite tracks from the past to make it sweeter. But really, this thing is too delicate to listen anytime else except late night. If you have those large open air headphone, these tracks are made for that.
