I don't know why I didn't think of this earlier but here I made a Spotify collaboration list! The only rules are 1) don't remove somebody else's song and 2) don't spam-add songs.

Really didn't know how to word this. All I know is that I've been completely in love with The Shelter of My Love by Astropol. I'm looking for some more alternative, dream-like, cinematic, emotionally intense songs. Songs that make you have flashbacks of things you never experienced. Songs that make you lose yourself before the voice of the artist jolts you awake. Songs that sound like how perpetual fogs and inevitable spirals feel.

I'm not sure what to call this specific genre, either. What the hell is shoegaze, anyway?

Some of the guitar work reminds me of Ratatat.

You might also like Washed Out.

Songs that make you have flashbacks of things you never experienced.

There are all kinds of bands that do that for me. The first two that come to mind are Explosions in the Sky and The Midnight.

Also there's a recently invented word for that feeling:

Anemoia - n. Nostalgia for a time or a place one has never known.

Washed outside paracosm's album is a masterpiece
