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.
I got back into Ratatat recently and love the vibes in everything
The new Skrillex album is quite possibly his best.
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.
corazon < seemed ridiculous at first, but really grew on me. happy energy.
I've been getting into tech house lately. It's fun and catchy with really satisfying bass.
Glass Beams
Khruangbin
Machinae Supremacy - Sidology 3 -- metal covers of songs from old video games actually also using a SID chip.
Been getting into Snapped Ankles and High Vis lately. Also, been enjoying Warmduscher. Snapped Ankles needs a North American tour. Are you listening? 😁
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
doseone’s new album with Steel Tipped Dove is EXCELLENT. dose deserved so much more fame than he got.
rest in peace, Alias.
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 :)
The Eurovision 2025 playlist is out! It's a good time listening ahead of the Eurovision Song Contest, then you get to root for the song you like best. If you've never got into it, it's a good time to give it a listen.
Zoomst They have one studio album and 90 monthly listeners on spotify but have a great prog sound. Aweizawei is my favorite from the album so far.

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.
Hmmmm Not exactly what you are asking about, but i love the energy of "Kickstart my heart" by Motley Crue and "Get it on" by Turboneger.
Both starts hard sang continues in the same fashion. I want more og that energy and rhythm.
"Stand up and shout" by Dio is close, but it feels tiny bit harder/faster.
Anybody got other songs in the same vibe/ energy. Not a slow build up. Just 1-2-3-4 rock!
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.
"Ha de sarar" from Maro
Northern Portrait.
Latest album is titled “The Swiss Army” and was released in 2022.
Kygo. Just really really good music (especially the latest album "KYGO" and "Thrill of the Chase".
I recently discovered the band Mar Malade and its really great!
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.
The Deli
Windhand. Sort of a psychedelic doom metal with groovy elements and a haunting, ethereal female vocalist
Cradle of filth - nymphetamine
The female vocals are amazing and beauty and the beast dynamic is done perfectly.
My fave album for takeoffs is The Campfire Headphase by Boards of Canada, especially after taking an edible https://open.spotify.com/album/6uO5B6km2Dco28tOBmZtSU
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:
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 🏳️🌈
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
Juniore (French indie pop)
