Hereβs my 100 most listened to albums on last.fm for reference of what my taste is like, donβt let that stop you from recommending me things you think I wonβt like though Iβm trying to expand my horizons.
I also like listening to small artists, I write a series of artist features all about people less than a million Spotify listeners so if you have any recommendations for that lmk.
Here's something unique. The album "Acheron" by Mechina.
I don't think it's in your regular taste. But it's unique enough to be a suggestion.
In case we die, architecture in Helsinki
Sound and Fury - Sturgill Simpson
Stessie - Home
Ivan Torrent - Onyria
This guy makes amazing epic music. Can't recommend him enough. All his other albums are great as well.
The Replacements - Let it Be Morphine Cure For Pain
violent femmes - hallowed ground
over the garden wall soundtrack spotted
I don't know most of those so I can't really get a grasp on your tastes but I'll throw a few albums I really like into the ring anyways!
Ruin - The Amazing Devil The Search - NF Everything is Wrong - Lincoln Needle and Thread - Roland Faunte Starbound Orchestral - Curtis Schweitzer Smile! :D - Porter Robinson Dark Matter - Les Friction
I tried to pick some stuff that was really all over the place, hopefully something in there speaks to you
Black Heart from Nine Treasures for expanding horizons :) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s1TRPCPoVhw&list=OLAK5uy_ki7KfC9keEcJRL5bnPdpa_M_aedfAXFSE
You'd probably like Paul's Boutique by the Beastie Boys. You may also wanna try Nujabe's Modal Soul.
Blackalicious - Blazing Arrow One of the greatest albums of all time. If you like Dilla and DOOM that's the only logical choice.
Somewhere in the In-between by Streetlight Manifesto
I've been slowly digging into their discography recently and holy crap Ska is so funny because it'll be a bopping tune but then you catch the lyrics and find it's a song about war, death, collapse, etc.
This music video definitely embodies that same disconnect. Cute animal animation with bopping music except wait what are those people doing? What are those animals doing? Oh my is that how this ends?!
Any by Radiohead. They are all different.
Clube da Esquina 2
Generation Why by Zhu. I don't really care for most of Zhu's music, but this album I really enjoy. It's similar in style to 808s and heartbreak.
Since you are trying to expand your horizons here's a bunch of weird stuff I like:
Hip Hop: DJ Shadow- Endtroducing... Blues: RL Burnside- A Ass Pocket of Whiskey Psychedelic Rock: The Cambodian Space Project- Whisky Cambodia Dance/Electro: The Presets- Apocalypso
Upvote for RL Burnside. I'll also suggest his 'i wish I was in heaven sitting down' a very smooth colab between an old Delta bluesman and a DJ
WITHERED or Paid Programming by BONES
Mechanical Keyboard Sounds: Recordings of Bespoke and Customized Mechanical Keyboards
Edit: This is less music, and more relaxation sounds. But I really like it.
A Tribe Called Quest - Beats, Rhymes, & Life
