Music Has The Right To Children
Boards of Canada
“Orange! Yeah, that’s right!” (Aquarius)
Chill vibes, but also some audio clips that definitely make some of the pieces veer closer into the creepy (like the vibes I get from Aphex Twin and their album covers).
Overall, would listen to some/most of this again, especially in a larger collection of ambient/electronic vibes.

The Velvet Underground & Nico
The Velvet Underground
While it feels a bit dated and lackluster at points now, the influential nature, especially its time, of it is clear. I think most of the appeal for me comes from Lou Reed’s voice, while I kind of strongly dislike the Nico songs. The first 30-seconds of each song is good and fun, but then it feels like they just keep going after that. “Heroin” is a classic though and an exception to the rule.
