Hi, since the obscure music genre seems obscure, I thought I could share some things that have it:

What do you say and think about all this? I think it sounds like something that Twisted Master Rellik or any other Versalian could listen to.

Links that I'm unsure about:

I hope that's all

Sounds like yet another ambient subgenre.

Wait, that "Ghost Office" song isn't ambient at all.

I didn't write any of that.

To play fair, I think it's a multifaceted kind of music genre that's more or less a bit louder kind of ambient.

(I wish I could have some cds of it for Christmas, but the prices are for British pounds, not U.S. dollars. I wish there are some American fans of Hauntology music out there.)

Strikes me as another one of those hipsterblog-born microgenre thingies like Witch House and chillwave. Whatevs, I'll give it a listen anyway.

go ahead and do every stupid thing you can imagine

Meta Four, by the Ghost Office vid, I mean that I'm not sure about the music genre it's in. The same goes for Mordant Music's music in The Tower vid.

Yeah, this is the same kind of scratchy sampledelia/downtempo that Boards Of Canada and the like make. Not its own genre, I don't think.

Good tape, though.

Hauntology is really more of a type of aesthetic effect rather than a full blown genre or sub-genre. It can even be applied to mediums other than music.
