I have a feeling that the original poster meant "releases that other people
may have heard and/or enjoyed." Not necessarily "pop music."
For instance, Confield is very innovative, but not necessarily popular.
Whereas BrothomStates is popular and available, but not very innovative
(sounds like warp circa '94-'95).
And "JoeBob's Crazy IDM Remixes" that your friend released out of the back
of his truck is not available at all, even though it may be the most
amazing thing you've ever heard. I think the point is to suggest things
that a) other people can actually find, and b) other people might actually
enjoy.
