There is a universe of this type of abstract-expressionist organized sound sometimes related to "classical music" but often more aural painting rather than speech in coherent sentences.
As with many things, it is not for everyone. Think Jackson Pollock, and maybe that can serve as the quickest path towards, as least, getting a handle on why it exists.
Hey, John Cage started it!:-) Or, maybe it was those pesky, clangy ancient Japanese composers. Honestly, just look at the category of "World Music" to find a pile of tunes that cannot be hummed!:-)
