Group from Ghana pretty much specialising in their own ethnic style of African music. There's definitely a word for it, but for me it's absolute bliss.

[b]Name[/b]: Tim Hecker
[b]Genre[/b]: Ambient/Drone/Noise
[b]Description[/b]:His works have been described as “structured ambient”, “tectonic color plates” and “cathedral electronic music”.
He has focused on exploring the intersection of noise, dissonance and melody, fostering an approach to songcraft which is both physical and emotive.
The New York Times has described his work as “foreboding, abstract pieces in which static and sub-bass rumbles open up around slow moving notes and chords, like fissures in the earth waiting to swallow them whole”.
