Today's Dream Pop selection...

I had never heard of this genre either, courtesy of Wikipedia:

The AllMusic Guide to Electronica defines dream pop as "an atmospheric subgenre of alternative rock that relies on sonic textures as much as melody".[8] Common characteristics are breathy vocals and use of guitar effects, often producing a "wall of noise".[8][3] Dream pop tends to focus on textures and moods rather than propulsive rock riffs.[9] Lyrics are often introspective or existential in nature.[9] In the view of music critic Simon Reynolds, dream pop "celebrates rapturous and transcendent experiences, often using druggy and mystical imagery".[3] According to Rachel Felder, dream pop artists often resist representations of social reality in favor of ambiguous or hallucinogenic experiences.[10]
