Brian Eno: Boredom 1: music for bvedroom lockdown

[thirdform]

ok, qualifiers first. not music for when you are bored of music, a la drone, but music for when you are bored of existing in that current moment in time.
secondly: doesn't have to be good or critically rated, just distracting and entertaining in some respects. can be hilariously bad or hilariously funny, or neither.
third: does not really include music to induce boredom, but to combat it.

fire away.

I don't listen to a ton of jazz, so I'd have to say it acts as my occasional palate cleanser when I'm bored. because it's usually jazz from 30-50 years ago, it allows me to escape from electronics and trendy sound design. the usual suspects: miles, Coltrane, Hancock, Getz, Mingus, sun ra.

its impossible to feel any other way than this exact mood when its playing.

Does 'pump up music' fit the bill your looking for thirdfrom?

i'm thinking more exotic weird stuff that isn't necessarily good just interesting enough to perk your ears up.

or like, really brash bubblegum pop.

I did that recently with a month of listening to a half-dozen ashtray navigations CD-Rs.
