In ‘Polacca’ by OOIOO, the voices and drums are not perfectly in time. It sounds messy, which is definitely a cool sound, especially since especially in classical training there is so much focus on perfection that sometimes it is hard to just let yourself get lost in and enjoy the music. It sounds like many different sounds and ideas coming together to make one piece of art, rather than one unit focusing on unity. The difference of styles that one would usually associate with a certain instrumental are mixed in with others, such as the traditional acoustic sounding chorus and percussion, mixed with the rock drums and electric guitar sounds.
In ‘Spaced Cowboy’ by Sly & The Family Stone, the vocals do not really follow exact rhythms or timing, and are not always fully ‘in tune’. This song has a very laid back and casual feel, which makes it feel very accessible and enjoyable. His instruments (especially the bass) and his vocals do not use what would be considered ‘good musical techniques’, in terms of ‘good tone and sound quality’, but that is part of the charm of the song.
‘Agua Que Va A Caer’ is similar to ‘Polacca’ in terms of the timing of all the parts not being fully in sync. The singer who leads is not always fully in tune all the time, and the style of singing by the chorus is not very annunciated and is not always exactly in sync. Again, to me it gives off a feeling of accessibility and charm that comes with music that is ‘imperfect’. Sometimes I feel that music that is supposed to be complicated and perfectly in tune and in sync all the time can leave people out and become exclusive.
