Sharing Musicians and Works: Let's Meet New Music!!

= Sharing Musicians and Works =

I want to know a lot of types of music.

And I imagine many of you feel the same way.

But it's impossible to know every genre of music just by searching on my own.

So, sharing music with people from different backgrounds and interests may help expand our knowledge.

Any genre is welcome (the more diverse, the better!).

Ex: Avant-Garde, Classical, Electronic, Ethnic, Local or Country music, Film Music, Jazz, Pop, Rock... I mean everything!

Please feel free to share musicians and works :)

I hope this topic becomes a hub for new music!

Here are my examples:

• Snarky Puppy (Empire Central)

• Richard D James (Drukqs)

• Stevie Wonder (Journey Through The Secret Life Of Plants)

• Baaba Maal (Gidelam)

• György Ligeti (Atmosphères)

I forgot to mention Japanese music, as I'm only slightly familiar with it.

In particular, I really think Async by Ryuichi Sakamoto is a great work.

Also, I find some J-Pop songs fascinating.

The vocal styles are quite distinctive to my ears.

So, these are Japanese examples.

Ryuichi Sakamoto - Async

DAIKI TSUNETA - THE FEST SUITE FOR CARTIER

J-Pop ↓

ヨルシカ - だから僕は音楽を辞めた

Fujii Kaze - Nan-Nan

Kenshi Yonezu - Pop Song

Avey Tare & Panda Bear - Alvin Row

ignore the first 2 minutes of this song

I’ll share something a little different.

I’m a big fan of L'Arpeggiata, an ensemble led by Christina Pluhar, in particular their latin jazz inspired interpretations of works by Henry Purcell. For this they collaborated with the brilliant countertenor Phillipe Jaroussky. It’s great, and i love how adaptable they are to reinterpret baroque music in this more contemporary idiom. I’ll link one of my favorites from this album:

Thank you so much for sharing your recommendations, @Fruit hunter, @Nd 6829, @CrystalCanon, @jejrekmek, @Markus Boyd!!

Thanks to you guys, this topic has gathered such a wide variety of music.

I’ve discovered some wonderful music that I hadn't known before.

Honestly, I’m really, really happy about it.

I look forward to seeing even more types of music shared here.

I’ll try suggesting a few pieces myself again :)

McCoy Tyner - Fly With The Wind

Thelonious Monk - Ugly Beauty

Please feel free to share music :)
