Here's drone minimalist duo Stars of the Lid's "A Meaningful Moment Through A Meaning(less) Process" as the soundtrack for Walt Disney's 1966 vision video about EPCOT. The track appears on Stars of the Lid's 2007 release "And Their Refinement of the Decline." If you enjoy Stars of the Lid, you will likely dig one of the members' side projects, A Winged Victory for the Sullen, that I posted about here.

    I do dig Stars of the Lid!… in a battle against Disney I’m sure they would win.

    Excellent stuff! And also thanks for turning me on to A Winged Victory for the Sullen.

    I recently discovered Oneohtrix Point Never, and though the overall feel and composition is different, here’s a video that is kind of a counterpoint to the above.
