There's that question that's been bugging me: Why are there some long, monotonous songs that are extremely boring and others, while also long and monotonous, that are hypnotic and beautiful. I often try to analyze my feelings when listening to such music and just can't. Some songs work, some don't. (But I guess that can be applied to any kind of music.)
Generally I often do enjoy tracks that range from 10-20 minutes to an hour and longer, when I have the time and am in the mood. Not just the hypnotic kind of course, some variation is also always most welcome.
