Experimental music can be a touchy subject. Just what exactly is considered “experimental?” And how far does the envelope have to be pushed?
Typically considered an electronic genre, Experimental encompasses songs that fall outside the traditional AABA song structure and often incorporate unique instrumentation by combining sounds that aren’t always found together. Perhaps it’s the genre’s tricky-to-pinpoint description that keeps it off many music lovers’ radars.
To shed some light on this elusive beast of a music genre as well as give props to some deserving OurStage artists, we’ve compiled a playlist of some of our favorite experimental tracks currently in competition.
