Obscure music

It's saddening to know that there's so much great music that won't ever get any recognition at all. So let's shine new light on forgotten or otherwise obscure music and artists. Recently found this blog which I find to be a good starting point: https://obscuremusicdaily.wordpress.com (Sadly abandoned.)

Not sure how obscure this is https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCQKlrmwFP2flRdjBPoiq8PA/videos It hurt me bad when MU fell and all those random blogs with discographies of all types died with it.

>>4776 this is maybe not so obscure to europeans, but to americans it sure is. take a look at some ex-yugo rock bands such as bijelo dugme, novi fossil, bombaj stampa and some of the older dino merlin and hari mata hari songs to get you started (even though the new songs are just as great). there actually was a thread on lainchan dedicated to this genre, but it seems to have died before i had chance to bump it..

>>4776 Discogs is a pretty great source for discovering obscure music. I think it's probably the most cohesive music database around, but idk. Just choose a music style you want and you'll probably find plenty of interesting stuff.

Here's some good stuff from an obscure music scene in Ukraine https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nVpZI510yv0 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OefQ-Pr-YH8 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9K-Beh0QUNY https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qmafoZGkZms https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XZsuvVit-J0

The Art of Fighting, indie band. never really took off

So you found a bunch of little-known stuff, but is it any good? Why should someone care? Yes, there's the novelty, and the occasional original discovery, but I can easily get novelty by digging through whatever archives, and I won't be discovering originally if I read about it here. Nonetheless, original discoveries are to be posted, the point in discovery being sharing---if it's about getting some great new, I'd stick to the massive list of known greats---they're new to me, which suffices. So then, the question stands: What's so special about this that you post? Don't just point to something, assuming people are going to waste their effort inspecting whatever it is, probably to little avail. And a description like ``it's good, it's ukranian'' does not say much. What's good about it. If the fact that it's ukranian---usually extraneous trivia---is significant, tell us why it's significant, what about the actual music exemplifies ukranianity, and how those qualities affect the experience of listening to that music. And then, even more ridiculous, is >The Art of Fighting, indie band. never really took off You, in the most direct sense, just gave a very compelling reason to absolutely ignore that artist. What could possibly go through the mind of someone who reads that line? Here's what I suspect: ``These guys never really took off. Why? Probably their music sucked, because if it were any good, they'd still have a decent following---unless the world suddenly went to soykaf and people don't care about good culture---or everything else is so much better that, relatively, it's 95% purity horse manure.

>>4795 >is it any good The people who are sharing it probably think so. >Why should someone care Some people like listening new and less heard things for the fun of it. Websites like rateyourmusic exist for this reason. >I can easily get novelty by digging through whatever archives, I won't be discovering it organically if I read about it here I don't understand this sentiment at all. There aren't accessible archives for everything, not everything is in a language you would understand, and "organic discovery" is pretty meaningless and pointlessly prideful. I would have missed out on a lot if people in random slsk chats hadn't gotten people interested with random talk about a new favorite they found. >What's so special about this that you post? Don't just point to something, assuming people are going to waste their effort inspecting whatever it is, probably to little avail People are even more likely to ignore you if you give them a wall of text for everything, especially if it's an imageboard. And like you mentioned, some people like going into things with little idea of what to expect. >If the fact that it's ukranian---usually extraneous trivia Something being outside the Anglosphere is a good explanation for why you would be posting it in an obscure music thread. >Why? Probably their music sucked I agree that "never really took off" is not the most inspiring word choice.

>>4795 >Don't just point to something, assuming people are going to waste their effort It took you longer to type that whole chapter up there than it would have to give a quick listen. >Probably their music sucked Guess you'll never know.

I mainly listen to covers of video game music, mostly stuff you can probably still find on OCremix or http://dwellingofduels.net/ At first because of autism, nowadays it's because it was all royalty free. I do have a few things that I've gotten from other sites over the last <20yrs that have been lost to the void too, but I haven't looked at anything new in a good while. Probably have missed an entire site or two, oh well...

Lots of stuff kinda just frozen in time, only ever available as an mp3 even...

Freeform hardcore as a genre. It started off in the early 2000s together with a plethora of other electronic hard dance genres. It's basically a harder version of trance, often very melancholic and atmospheric. Some examples: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f2V3Pmorr40 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=onrU6SZSapg https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MYCyT8NfQKs https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A7m_NHw_cs8 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FStaZPXNc94 The taskubilistonni channel on youtube has a lot too.

>>4807 In a similar vein, I find myself listening to a lot of OSTs from games on old Japanese computers (MSX, PC98, X68000, etc.), mostly stuff from Falcom. The Hoot player is really good for this kind of thing, works like a charm in Wine too. And not only do I enjoy listening to the music on its own, but since I've been trying to make my own game music lately, I've found that it's a good source of inspiration. And it seems like I'm not alone in this. A lot of indie/chiptune composers sound like they listen to the same kind of music I do for the same reason.

>>4776 I like listening to touhou music, usually the OSTs, from time to time I check out the fanmade stuff too, there's quite a lot of it. I've mainly used animebytes to torrent it, so I'm not sure where else you'll be able to find it. >>4807 Holy crap their website is trash, it can't even function properly without javascript but the music collection is great. Thanks for posting lain

https://kiddiamond964.bandcamp.com/album/in-love-with-the-void This is the soundtrack i made for a book that i'm writing. It's kinda cyberpunk-ish. I'm not going to share the book because it's unfinished and it's in spanish so no one from here will be able to understand what i wrote. (If this is breaking a rule i'll delete it just give me a warning o delete the post)

>>4776 I like how youtube keeps getting used yet videos die constantly. Like half the videos on that site are not there anymore. I laughed at the adolph satan though. I ought to download some Nazi death metal before it's all gone so I can combat nigger music when appropriate.

>>4776 Literally listening for the first time right this second this is sick

This band Bloke Music is critically unappreciated, I'm surprised they only have a few hundred monthly listeners on spotify. They remind me of a more scottish version of black midi (the band, not the software). https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tSODeX7U85E There's also this band, Once And Future Band, that sounds like modern prog rock. They just released a great album too. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F3ghVHtgpns This guy Sevish on youtube exclusively makes microtonal electronic music. If you don't know what microtonal music is, look into it, beucase its some really interesting stuff. https://youtu.be/l9wINwlgxRU

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HZdNmvMAV3U The rest of his channel is soykafty rap, but this is a hidden gem.

This is the artist Zigtebra: http://zigtebra.bandcamp.com they are quite unpopular though theyve made some really good quality videos in the past for their music videos and have appeared on public access around chicago.I basically found out about them after I rummaged through a free cassette bin a couple days after cassette store day. If you like bedroom pop, you'll like zigtebra.

https://newsylveon.bandcamp.com A Russian bubblegum EDM-Pop musician. It's sad that nobody pays attention to him but least it's way better than what mainstream music Russia has.

https://pajjama.bandcamp.com/ Norwegian (mostly) instrumental prog/electronic that sounds influenced by Japanese pop music from the 80s and 90s. The most recent release is my favorite.

I've posted about this before, but the internet archive low-bit scene has some hidden gems https://archive.org/search.php?query=subject%3A%22low-bit%22

>>5784 Specific examples https://archive.org/details/20kbps

is it weird that I know more than half of the musics posted in this thread? some really fancy ambient/chillout/idk https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dOugBH3wTOY

>>4795 Imagine perceiving music in this sort of.. very sad sad way. Why do you expect every act to be sold to you and marketed by every lainanon on lengthy paragraphs? If you wanna listen to your rockers soykaf then go do that, just remember that everything you listen to is a bleak consumerist product now and has been stripped away from any meaning it might've once had.

>>5812 Neat. 6:15 melody sounds familiar, is it a remix of something? I assume this is your music though, you might want to post in the self-promo thread

Ryoji Ikeda deserves more recognition.

>>4778 Ex-yugo is not that obscure, it is just probably very obscure to anyone outside of the balkans. >t. balkan user

>>4776 https://youtu.be/bdPqK3AY93E https://youtu.be/5koblR0Opfs https://youtu.be/hS36Y42c3lk https://youtu.be/Ko7rzLKM3dU https://youtu.be/Y0xxc3MmzU8 I listen to a new album every day. I'm glad I get to listen to so many great works of art but it also makes me think about how much I've forgotten with time. maybe I'll put together a playlist and post it later.

>>5830 look at the artists he mentioned, every single one is ex-yu.

>>5842 ^

>>5830 >it is just probably very obscure to anyone outside of the balkans. yes, thats exactly what i said.

>>5872 >this is maybe not so obscure to europeans Balkan doesn't make up the whole of Europe and besides balkan immigrants in Western Europe, not many people listen to this type of music.

Checked the link >>5432 posted and at the bottom of the page found this https://www.discogs.com/lists/Rarerities-Japanese-Obsucure-Records/413406 Actual gold mine

>>5990 not that obscure though because discogs has almost no japanese albums in their database everytime I buy japanese CDs I have to add them on discogs x)

This album has a very small cult following but it's still plenty obscure. Not much is known about the artists other than they are from the UK. The most amount of "mainstream" coverage this album got was thanks to adult swim. One of the songs is pretty famous among adult swim fans because it was used in their "all times eastern" bump, the song in question being "Mandeer". However, the other songs in this album are mostly unknown, which is a real shame, cause I honestly, unironically consider this to be one of my favorite electronic music albums of all time! It is very good! Anyways, here's the album: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=syrlwtTXbx4 The reason why this album is so hard to find is because this album is what's known as "library music". It's music made by record companies that is made specifically to license to TV stations, movie studios, ect. In other words, music that is impossible for common people to obtain. Library music tends to be awesome! A lot of library music is made by artists using a sudonem, and a lot of it is very avant garde. It's kinda sad to think about all the great music we're missing out on because it'll never be released to the public.

Good Album right here: https://open.spotify.com/album/3ZGeGCev9Do7MgYbtnqEwq The track at the end is 20+ minutes long and made on a Roland SP808ex if you like that kind of thing.

>>5811 I sort of agree, and already stated my disagreement with the other Lain but: >Why do you expect every act to be sold to you and marketed by every lainanon on lengthy paragraphs? I'm not going to listen to anything if you just provide a link and no description. Why should I? The entire internet is full of threads like this with people's suggestions. There isn't time in this life to listen to even a tiny fraction of them all so give me a reason or I'll scroll on by and look for something else. If you're excited about some music you should be able to write ten words about it. Even some nice album art might be enough, this is an image board.

https://kastoacha.bandcamp.com/ Ambient Beats

One of the best funk songs ever. Maybe the best? Just a fuarrrked up, strung out edgy groove with crazy influence from experimental and psychedelic rock. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yfr_b85oLNg

I recommend checking out vintageobscura.net and the subreddit. It's an addictive place.

https://t.me/freeobscuremusic idk how much i'm allowed to "advertise" here but I started a telegram channel dedicated to promoting obscure/lesser known music since telegram is okay with pirated stuff afaik it should be comfy

>>6605 Also forgot to mention Al Bird Dirt, an Austrian home recorder, his music is electronic punk or...something? I am not sure how to describe it, listen to it for yourselves. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=asiF4UtjMT0 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RBMJSUAx-PM He is mainly known for being behind the "snuff music video" One Potato Two Potato, a cover of The Mummies.

>obscure >youtube Not to be a snob, but I don't really consider anything I can find on youtube or google to be very obscure. I've got a few hundred songs that cannot be found anywhere any longer. I will share one with you that I'm listening to now. I like this one a lot. HAtE feat. Kyle Priess - Unknown album - Scar

>>6670 Here's one off my list that is on youtube. I didn't know they made a anime music video of it. Pretty cool. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-qdb54sKlsM

>>6670 But, isn't there an abundance of music on YouTube? Does YouTube's "Mix" Playlist feature regularly expose one to obscure music? Even if it's accessible on YouTube, if nobody knows about it, the algorithm won't promote it and so it's basically a private video with nothing really linking you to it.

>>6671 >Published on Dec 21, 2006 >Manga themed music video for the Perfect Virus song 'This Day' by Mike Knox Fan made? Hmmm >>6678 To me it cheapens it to be on a site like YouTube. It is just sad, like a desperate whore, past her prime, essentially begging for a few dollars. Bands that were too cool to YouTube have a bit of dignity about them. I *really* don't like YouTube, because they are *the* pirate site that killed any hope for musicians.

>>6670 obscure things can be on not-obscure sites, for instance, if i upload your song onto youtube right here and now, is it suddenly not obscure anymore? Not snob, it doesnt make sense

>>6689 The point is obscure musicians didn't upload to youtube. They had their own websites and distributed directly, like the one I shared with you. Those sites are gone now, and the links to the music with it. I don't expect you to understand it. I doubt you ever visited a band site. The point is if you only ever visit youtube, you will miss the really obscure music that was never on youtube.

>>6680 >It is just sad, like a desperate whore, past her prime, essentially begging for a few dollars. To me, that sounds like a cope. Like, the musicians knew they'd never be mainstream so by refraining from putting their music on YouTube, they can successfully save face by claiming that they always intended to be "underground," that's why they never put their music on YouTube. It's like failing deliberately, just so that you can claim that you never failed since you never tried. Honestly, I really hope no musicians are in this immature mindset of not wanting to "sell out" by being mainstream or being available on mainstream platforms. I can understand not wanting to compromise on one's ideals or preferences for the sake of mass appeal however, to maintain an underground status for its own sake is clearly wrong. If what you enjoy is truly good, it shouldn't need an underground status in order to be enjoyable. >>6723 This guy makes far more sense. Although I do wonder why a musician would reject putting their music on a more known platform. If you want to share it with people, you'd want it in a place where people can see it. If you don't want to share it with people, why place it exclusively on your website instead? I guess I'd have to ask an artist that question themselves.

>>6723 >The point is obscure musicians didn't upload to youtube. They had their own websites and distributed directly Because there was no youtube (and no bandcamp, souncloud, DistroKid - only cdbaby ) back then, instead you had myspace pages and hundreds of so-called net-labels. They all died out around 15 years ago often taking the music with them to their digital graves. It sucked. Now everything's either on Bandcamp, youtube, spotify or Beatport. Like you used to have all those obscure, tiny jazz labels from Europe releasing avant-garde stuff in very small quantities - they're all on bandcamp now. There's still some vinyl only electronic dance music (rips make it onto youtube anyway) and some niche CD only classical music that doesn't make it onto streaming platforms but that's about it. Japanese stuff used to be famously all physical but they basically gave up, everything's on spotify now. It's awesome.

This is a good album to play loud and drink to https://open.spotify.com/album/3ZGeGCev9Do7MgYbtnqEwq?si=TaPUNSBwTN27tSNGCAl97A

>>6725 >It's awesome For you maybe. It used to be a one hit wonder like Rick Astley could retire in his 20s a multimillionaire. Now, you can be Psy and be the number one youtube video of all time and make $870,000 instead. The difference was that the record labels took the risk. If you didn't sell, they didn't make anything. Youtube flipped that. You don't make anything unless youtube does. Youtube will see you going viral, and then pull you from recommendations until you cough up money for placement. They took all the money out of music and pocketed it. You can't even escape them, because even if you try to opt out of their scam and don't put your music there, some else surely will. YouTube was founded on piracy, and is still a pirate site today. See viacom vs youtube case and the internal emails where they state this as their core business plan: Pirate like hell, find a buyer, and sell out, letting the buyer eat the liability. Of course, the buyer was Google, who are masters of the rigged California jury.

Dust Belt – False Horizon [Various Appeals – Vampyric Screams...] An organic fusion of synthesizers, field recordings, tape loops, radio static... Buried in lo-fi. Decorated with tape saturation. Post-industrial. Academic Noise. Max Gudmunson's experience with a whole spectrum of equipment never ceases to amaze, at times, even shock. "Solaris" -like experience – otherworldy, unimaginable. Every re-listen gets you even further. A tender, tasteful touch to noises from various gold standard apparatus is being a perfect sidekick to a leading synth. If you're long enough into noise music, you will start to appreciate the usage of space in a composition, both statically and rhythmically. Totally a breeze of fresh air to the scene. Anyone who missed his "Ecocannibalism" masterpiece must fix this as soon as possible. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iVwo_dWl0M4 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pkIKlJTj86g https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qHCcs8Mi5-A https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yoSCt6QmZGs https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5YxtQ6bGia4 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O_OdHktEwfQ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hxJfdPnh7no https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uwAymWmHNiA https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dgr61gong2s

>>6737 Before the recording industry boom in the 20th century musicians would make their money performing. What's been happening for the last 20 years is that we're going back to how it used to be. The world in which a pop star could retire on the strength of one single was a historical anomaly and it's not coming back. I'm so tired of all this whining about the revenue from recorded music cratering (it's actually growing 15%/year but whatever) when the revenue from live music more than quadrupled in the same time period. It's just completely irrelevant because the recorded music is not a product anymore, it's an advertisement for a live show. You're not supposed to make the most of your money from a video on youtube or even music streaming - it's a way to promote, gather attention of your fans so they'll come see your show and maybe buy your merchandise. That's where the real money is. And if you think that payola is a problem youtube created I have a bridge to sell you 'cause it's a problem as old as radio.

>>6741 >The world in which a pop star could retire on the strength of one single was a historical anomaly and it's not coming back. >That's where the real money is. You sound confused. You say the money is gone and never coming back. No one will retire a millionaire in their 20s again. Then you turn around and say this new approach is where the real money is. You know what that sounds like to me? Conditioning. You're repeating the google propaganda and have no idea where the real money is. Youtube, Spotify, iTunes, these companies are gorging on real money. >You're not supposed to make the most of your money from a video on youtube or even music streaming. Only youtube and spotify are supposed to make money, right? The recorded music is the product. Big Tech turned musicans into sharecroppers.

Be careful with this one Lain. When I found it I couldn't stop watching it. I would watch it on repeat. I almost lost it, but pulled back from the brink. I'm happy now, but if you're not in a stable place, it could push you over the edge. The Faint - Agenda Suicide https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xv8mJfDPxuA You could follow logic Or contest it all The work solution makes the common house a home The element of progress That you mention is gone It de-evolved to something you were headed toward As I lay to die, the things I think Did I waste my time? I think I did I worked for life All we want are just pretty little homes Our work makes pretty little homes Like a cast shadow Like a fathers dream Have a cut out son What's a worse disease To get that pretty little home As I lay to die, the things I think I don't want to regret what I did And work for life All we want are just pretty little homes Our work makes pretty little homes Agenda suicide The drones work hard before they die And give up on pretty little homes (Like a cast shadow) Our work makes pretty little homes Our work makes pretty little homes Agenda suicide, the drones work hard before they die And give up on pretty little homes

>>6801 i get what you mean but maybe you should word it differently. There's a thrilling sensation in finidng that 20 views gem. It's not about being elitist or contrarian, just the satisfaction of finding unknown stuff that you enjoy. It's not really my case cuz my taste in music kinda forces me to be into more obscure stuff, but if i was a fan of rock i'd try to discover small unknown bands

I've found this because someone posted a link of a site about obscure musics on Lainchan, but I don't know if everyone here knows Shu Furuma Ju. I still have hope on finding this site. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dcCg8-uEgkk

damn what a good thread. once i found this artist. its all drum n bass remixes of metal and post rock songs. its not great, but its a fun take on many mucore favs https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xi1Jkczc3x4

Here is a rabbit hole of blogs worth getting lost in. Start in the "we like" section. http://urbanaspirines.blogspot.com/

Not a fan of japanese music but really loved this album https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x79kuGdI3WQ

Since this is likely the appropriate thread, what's your mainstream level from https://mainstream.ghan.nl/ ? You need a lastfm account for it ofc

Edelweiss and Bmss are two of my favourite finds this year https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tRVdNpfM-lY https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wPYojYA4P5o In general the "DeathFetish" Channel has some fun things.

https://mtvghosts.bandcamp.com/music - I've only listened to Five Sides of Time and Tri-Pop. Very interesting music. Sounds like it comes from a dream or an alternate universe. Something from another place, outside our space and time. https://youtu.be/XrVwH9lOvek - Industrial avant-garde rock. Wish it got more recognition. Based lyrics such as "DESTROY ALL GIRLS" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4LcNialAuaI - Young rock band from Texas. Very surprised they aren't more popular, although one of their songs was featured in the new Tony Hawk game. Nice kids. https://donsalsa.bandcamp.com/album/koolaide-moustache-in-jonestown - Pure insanity. On the edges of what should be considered music, but you can jam to it and it's certainly art. One of a kind. Huge recommendation. Genre breaking soykaf. https://frankokay.bandcamp.com/album/errors - New guy. His art is as good as his music. Similar to mtvghosts. Also a really cool dude, talked with him on instagram a while back. Truly passionate. https://youtu.be/ska4lkFMTM4 - Forgotten Greek 80s band. Feels a bit like Joy Division?? Picked up some traction recently due to an alleged connection with "The Most Mysterious Song on the Internet", which is also very good.

>>7688 Okay why did you post an irrelevant picture? (Jennie from Blackpink)

>>7044 I'm aware of Shu Furuma Ju, I can't say it's very good though even as someone who is into Visual Kei. Never understood why that band has such a cult following.

drum n bass remixes of metal and prog music kinda weird but blasted https://nansilver.bandcamp.com/album/xxxi-d-as-de-blanco

Random stuff https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MvYP2JT7eao https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GsNtRTxU0wU https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x1hT8SXPwyM https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YbPQQlxAQxQ https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLZN-Qk4Q9ORC-sJ_oN6SU0rRZkXvuQ8cr https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RGwFq1M0aI0

>>7725 because i just sprayed fat load over her face listening to that music

>>7842 >Tonetta Oh soykaf it's him https://yewtu.be/watch?v=gOiIGP-GahY

not super obscure or anything but definitely not mainstream https://soundcloud.com/dltzk/sets/teen-week

Just more japanese songs that I like: Mikan Mukku https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BNelnq4cSxQ Masakosan https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8BcYroMTmQA

>>7797 There is a huge difference between Visual Kei and Shu Furuma Ju, Shu sounds more like Masakosan, it's like music for children with a bit of insanity added to it

>>4776 some old-school otaku music https://youtu.be/35gq-7BBIbU https://youtu.be/enT6R7ATBK4 https://youtu.be/hB5T9nkcnc0 https://youtu.be/_LyV4dKExcE https://youtu.be/NopLPUf1suw https://youtu.be/TPeNEMjjwRk

Obscure music https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLW5t7v9DY9-vq3X90Wt5ZFy0iq9Er4p_E

We should make a thread about music playlist and share them either by fastmail or mega. It'd fun to see all lain playlist.

>>8267 That would be nice
