Also experimental electronics, avantgarde, ‘world music’, some funk, and a bit of indie rock.

I don’t really know anything about mainstream pop, r’n’b, or pop-rock, and especially don’t listen to lyrics so can’t say anything about rap, country, or ‘singer-songwriter’ music except that The Last Poets were the progenitors of rap, and The Velvet Underground said most of the stuff I need to hear. I do know a bit about 90s music like eurodance, and a little of 80s popular music, by the virtue of having grown among it.

P.S. The Invidious instance I use is broken (just like the last time I made such a thread), so unless your artist is on Bandcamp or free on Soundcloud, I probably won’t be able to answer new requests.

    Right on, thanks for the recommendations! I’m familiar wit Tubular Bells since it was used in The Exorcist. I will work my way through the others.

    I saw Animals as Leaders live about 13 years ago, and they were amazingly talented.

      ‘The Exorcist’ used only the intro from ‘Tubular Bells’, while the full performance is over twenty-five minutes (and that seems to be just the first part from the album). So if you haven’t heard it in full, I recommend checking it out.
