Hey everyone,
I'm constantly on the hunt for new music, I thought I'd make a thread for people to share what they have been recently into. I know we all have our classics and go-to artists/songs, but I wanted to create an area for people to share "new" or lesser known gems that they believe others should check out. Post 1, maybe 2, I think posting a List might be a bit much.

No Judgement, everyone's opinion and taste is welcome

Douaga - Avalanche Kaito
Gotoku Lemon - TEKE:::TEKE

    The Vices-Never Had To Know.
    The Vices are an alternative band from the Netherlands. Most of their songs are up tempo, but this little gem is somewhat slower. Just give it a listen: https://youtu.be/irETeyfI9G4

    Son Mieux-Multicolor
    Son Mieux are a band from the Netherlands, and they have a reputation of being a very good live band. The only girl in this 7 member group plays the violin, trumpet and sings. Multicolor was a top 10 hit in the Netherlands last summer.

They've been around a while, but the more I listen to the more I like them.

    [quote] Feel it Still - Portugal, the Man, Medasin remix [/quote] Love this version, I've grown pretty tired of the original so I was happy to hear a good take on it

    Berimbau - bodikhuuHonestly all of the tracks on hisRio/Bodianovaalbum are solid mixes and sampling of classic Brazilian tunes and soundsYanimda Kal - Kit SebastianI'm a huge fan of Anatolian psychedelia, I'm a huge fan this band and think they're criminally underrated. This track is less on the psychedelia side, they infuse a lot of old French pop elements which probably makes this a bit more approachable for most people.

    This may not be NEW music but a find of old forgotten music. On YouTube there is a page called Past Perfect Vintage Music with music from the 1920s to 1940s.

    Another is Max Rabbe. He is a newer German singer with a small orchestra. He does classic songs from the 1920s to 1940s or so. He also does versions of more modern songs.

    I listen a lot to a band with the somewhat silly name of Big Big Train. They are a modern day progressive rock band who come up time after time with fabulous tunes. They sing of many things and are always interesting, moving, thought provoking and can bring tears through their storytelling. Wide-ranging song topics include English history, industrial revolution, folklore, Leonardo da Vinci, the Roman Empire, human empathy and the Voyager spacecraft.
    Many hear early prog rock influences such as Genesis or Yes in their music.

    Tokyo Midnight - Sababa 5, Yurika HanashimaBeen obsessed with this song and the other one of the collaboration between these artists, the band is 60s and 70s style psych funk and her voice pairs well with it.Cayman Islands - Kings of ConvenienceNot a new band nor are they not necessarily not well known, but I woke up to this song in my head and I had to share it for others who don't know Erlend Oye or any of his work with The Whitest Boy Alive, Kings of Convenience, La Comitiva or his Solo work as Erlend Oye. IF you haven't heard his work, you can truly go down deep and exceedingly pleasant rabbit hole.

    Parachute - Thee Lakesiders60's chicano feel to it, hoping this band continues to produce some great tunes.Momo, El Nomada de La Sombra - SusobrinoMinimal, contemplative, meditative, questioning, imploring. I respect the heck out of susobrino for his creativity and ambition. He infuses a lot of traditional South American musical elements and instruments to his pieces and they come across as folk stories. He has a lot of random dabbling in his musical profile on Spotify (or iTunes, idk) but his albumLa Hoja de Eucaliptoreally reflects his overall style.

    Strings of your guitar - Claude FontaineHer voice makes you melt and fall in love, at least it does for me. She has a couple Bossa songs, which is not her usual style, her voice just really lends well to Saudade. Her entire album is worth checking out. Containing the sexy music trendYSL - June Freedom, Eliji BeatzkillaMakes you want to dance, and do it closely.

    today while working on some projects in my kitchen i dug out my turntable and raided my stash of vinyl from the 70s and 80s. It was like meeting up with an old friend.

    The Nightshift Watchman by David Wilcox. shades of Croce and Chapin in his music.

    Also the sound track to Excalibur 1981 version.

    Some of my most fun music times were riding down the road in my 93 Ford Mustang GT, red with white convertible top & like leather seats with Grand Funk Railroad blasting through the CD player. Add a large Coke & fries to the picture and its a phenomenal ride to anywhere.

    A song that I really like is by M83, a French band, I heard it in a series called 13 Reasons Why, but could be used in many other series.
