Keyword artist , or band/group name. I’m not looking for a genre, I want to search artists. Tell me about someone you like listening to.

Would appreciate if it’s Not symphonic/orchestral movie/videogame OST. I know there is a lot of really good music in this category but I’m trying to avoid recommendations like Hans Zimmerman or Jeremy Soule or Enya etc., since they are either really well known or fall into the orchestral and/or “epic music score” I’m not looking for.

It’s OK if some tracks have vocals or even some lyrics/voice samples but I prefer to keep them at a minimum.

Any suggestions? TIA

    Apocalyptica. Metal on the cello. They sometimes have s guest vocalist. I like their self-titled album.

    Phamie Gow. Pianist and harpist. Maybe too orchestral. I turn to the Beyond the Milky Way album oftenwhen working out studying.

    Mary Lattimore. Experimental harpist. I’ve been enjoying her latest album, West Kensington, with guitarist Paul Sukeena.

    Kelly Moran. Experimental pianist Can’t recommend her album Ultraviolet enough.

    Burial. For some chilled, glitchy dubstep.

    The Comet is Coming. For some psych jazz.

    Moderat. For some house electronica.

    Uboa. For some droney, noisy, doomy metal.

    George Clanton. For some synthpop vapourwave. His latest album is great.

      If you like Apocolyptica, may I suggest checking out Judgement Day? It’s another string metal group.
