Snorecore is actually a slightly different style of music, heroes of which include Low, Spaceman 3, Red House Painters, etc. That’s all well and good, but they won’t lull your eyelids as seductively as this playlist that sits more in the warm drone, lowercase minimalism and ambient soundscapes realm.
Purveyors of the highest quality snorecore (by my new and made up definition) include Stars of the Lid, or in fact any projects featuring Brian McBride or Adam Wiltzie from SotL, like A Winged Victory for the Sullen, etc; see also Labradford and their spin offs, like Mark Nelson’s Pan-American; Kyle Bobby Dunn, Hammock, Max Richter, Tim Hecker, Colleen, Harold Budd, Brian Eno, Chihei Hatakeyama, Christopher Willits, Loscil, Julianna Barwick, Eluvium and William Basinski.
