Anyone know of any other bands that sound like this? I like to call it "warm bath while coming down" type music. I just love to get drunk and fall asleep/cry my eyes out to it.

have there been any new artists or big releases I should check out from the last couple of years?

really beautiful and pretty and melodic, and also experimental and really quite weird in the way that they play around with choppy spoken word/percussion and really unpredictable and strange rhythm and timing changes. Again, I don't expect to find anything particularly similar, but I always appreciate music that is classically beautiful but also in some way completely out of the ordinary.

The Books for sure, maybe Gastr del Sol, Battles, and The Red Krayola

i wanna say Nikaido Kazumi, too, but that's mostly because she's Japanese and this is a really lovely album with lots of cool and weird multi-tracked vocals.

I'm looking for songs that may be best described as "disco funk swagger."

Examples:

The Killers -- I'm the Man https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w3xcybdis1k
Portugal. The Man - Feel It Still https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pBkHHoOIIn8
Saint Motel - My Type https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IyVPyKrx0Xo
Jungle - Busy Earnin' https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BcsfftwLUf0

I guess what all of these have in common is their lush background sounds with lots of horns and strings, very disco, but also that swagger element -- instant confidence boosters.

I appreciate that this is a really vague request but I guess it's worth a go

I've been listening to Asa-Chang and Junray, and I doubt there's anything similar to them but I'm looking for something else that might scratch the same itch. More specifically, I like how their best stuff is really beautiful and pretty and melodic, and also experimental and really quite weird in the way that they play around with choppy spoken word/percussion and really unpredictable and strange rhythm and timing changes. Again, I don't expect to find anything particularly similar, but I always appreciate music that is classically beautiful but also in some way completely out of the ordinary. If that makes you think of something, I'm interested to know what. Specifically not really interested in improv stuff though

I’m looking for some smooth piano, either classical or jazz. It just needs to be chill enough for me to read to when I’m on a plane or a public place. I’m tired of simple ambient noise tracks, and I love the piano.

You might want to check out Harold Budd's "Perhaps"... it's really minimal and I find it perfect for reading.

What Oi should I listen to if I like Templars and Cock Sparrer but don't know anything else about the genre

4-Skins, Sham 69, Cockney Rejects, The Business, Peter & The Test Tube Babies, Last Resort

But for my money those few early 80s comps that kinda started off the thing are more worth your time: Carry on Oi, Oi the Album, Strength Through Oi

I'm looking for some good chillout music...somewhere midway between at the club, and so boring you'll fall asleep.

My go-to for this is The Field: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AwdOLBJURsE

BT does a good job too: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t4RtaJYFPy0

So yeah, more stuff like that please

A friend of mine is looking for inspiration for some concept art he's been put in charge of creating for a videogame.

Without going into too much detail (confidentiality and what not), the setting seems to be equal parts eutopian and dystopian, with a healthy dose of H.P. Lovecraft. Pretty broad reach, surely, but each can get pretty specific.

Does anyone have any acts or albums (or even single songs) that would match any of these? So far he's said artists like Gazelle Twin, Fever Ray, and Woodkid have done it, and he's asked specifically for "tribal beats."

Thanks!

Already on Run the Jewels. They have a similar sound too. I have a workout playlist with hard-hitting hip hop tracks like this. Can anyone hook me up with some jams/artists that sound hard-hitting like these dudes?
