The Hooters - 500 Miles

outkast speakerboxxx/the love below. its like 2 hours perfect for plane ride

Stromae & Pomme - Ma Meilleure Ennemie

Some days I just listen to it on repeat for hours.

Anna Diem, indie artist from Oregon and her music just makes me bop! Christmas Puppy is so sweet! I love gay music 🏳️‍🌈

King Gizzard and the Lizard Wizard. About to release their 27th album and have covered pretty much every genre so no matter what you like, there's probably a record for you. My favorite is the Flying Yellow Microtonal Banana, full of great tracks, but Billabong Valley has broad appeal.

Propagandhi - At Peace https://youtu.be/CDhTf3eaeoM

Machinae Supremacy - Sidology 3 -- metal covers of songs from old video games actually also using a SID chip.

MF DOOM

Glass Beams

Khruangbin

Hump Back - 「番狂わせ」(Upset) /watch?v=zlcn57wdr9E - Will likely have to watch it through Invidious or a VPN with an exit node in Japan, afaik it region locked to Japan only... ;-;

The band was somewhat recently featured on Bocchi the Rock with one of the scenes in the linked video being adapted into the cover page.

*Track from their newer album:

「がらくた讃歌」(Ode to Trash) /watch?v=XtuzSsFWKik

Sleep Token. New album coming soon too.

I've been getting into tech house lately. It's fun and catchy with really satisfying bass.

Black V Neck - Like Whoa

Chris Lake & Aluna - Beggin'

The Rumjacks. Irish punk / rock / folk and very good.

The original singer had some issues, and was replaced by another singer with a great voice :)

Chumbawumba

A Speculative Fiction - Propagandhi

Absolute banger, and prophetic no less. But really just everything Propaghandi has put out has been in heavy rotation the last 6 months

Passage Du Desir - Sturgill Simpson. His whole catalog is solid if you like more classic country (Merle/Willie)with some experimental elements.

I'm not obsessed with Wisp

it's much deeper than that

Pat the bunny recently came out of retirement and released a new album called Friends in Real Life. It's quite good, as is pretty much everything he's ever done.

Colin Stetson is a fantastic ride. He plays instrumental music, but he's playing lower-pitched instruments *wrong.".

Mics on the keys are picking up rhythmic clicking acting as the percussion. He is sometimes shouting through the instrument. The end result sounds like a chase through the woods in the dark.

Ghostface killah

Windhand. Sort of a psychedelic doom metal with groovy elements and a haunting, ethereal female vocalist

Always been a Clutch fan, but I've been listening to Three Golden Horns a lot the past few days.

Meshuggah. I’ve known them for a while but only recently saw them live for the first time. Heaviest metal band I’ve ever seen live so far.

I got back into Ratatat recently and love the vibes in everything

I've been listening to Metallica's One and ...And Justice for All repeatedly, their two best tracks.

i stumbled across magic city hippies two years ago and still have like 10 of their songs on heavy rotation. i love their easy poolside vibe. really smooth. feels like a summer party.

what would i do

queen

corazon < seemed ridiculous at first, but really grew on me. happy energy.

Fontaines DC, the most recent album. Plus the cover Porter Robinson did of Favorite from that album.

That song with Waxahatchee and MJ Lenderman, Right Back to It.

Nilufer Yanya album My Method Actor

Joshua Ray Walker, anything by him is so good.

Cradle of filth - nymphetamine

The female vocals are amazing and beauty and the beast dynamic is done perfectly.

Not so much a particular artist but more of a genre: Instrumental covers of video game music. I haven't listened to much else in the last couple years:

In particular this acoustic guitar version of Gerudo Valley from Ocarina of Time:

And this piano version of Wood Carving Partita from Symphony of the Night:

https://youtu.be/GjKuTFnnpYM

Nothing new, Alan Parsons Project.

Pyramid
Tales of Mystery and Imagination - Edgar Allen Poe
Eye in the Sky
Ammonia Avenue
The Turn of a Friendly Card
I Robot

The new Skrillex album is quite possibly his best.

Been getting into Snapped Ankles and High Vis lately. Also, been enjoying Warmduscher. Snapped Ankles needs a North American tour. Are you listening? 😁

I'm digging independent artists Melancholic crossroads and Emily Jeffri right now.

My fave album for takeoffs is The Campfire Headphase by Boards of Canada, especially after taking an edible https://open.spotify.com/album/6uO5B6km2Dco28tOBmZtSU

8485 - I don't want to hurt him

It's hyperpop

SLIFT's album UMMON has been on heavy rotation in my playlists for some time now.
