Looking for a new streaming radio station, if anyone else still listens to those. I'm in the mood for some indie/alternative rock but would welcome something that has an even broader mix than that. Something light for my work day. I was actually looking for an Icecast/Shoutcast stream of this local station so I didn't have to use their web player, if this helps guide the recs: https://alt923.radio.com/ Their playlists trends towards some modern mainstream stuff, but I also appreciate that they play to my nostalgia by playing stuff like Sum 41 or mid-2000s Foo Fighters amid the recent stuff.

Semi-related to the melodic percussion question, there's a sound that I've tried to find more of that I can't quite put my finger on. It's also heavily percussive but sort of meditative and atmospheric. I feel like random games back in the late 90s/early 2000s used it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JgT87vkHGOU https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u60HCk4NX_0&t=237s Tool also sort of captured a similar vibe in Reflection, especially the intro: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4MzVuHqsNoM I guess like what would you call something that's moody, atmospheric, sorta tribal-ish, and is that really a thing outside of like various video game OSTs? The closest I could find a while back was like some random long-rear end youtube upload for people to listen to while tripping balls on shrooms. (this one was it I think: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QTZRmxWNFGE)

Thanks for the recs, but it's not quite what I was going for. I think I'm looking for something even more ambient, really sort of like those video game OSTs. Maybe I just need some OST recs? Aside from that, I'll be adding Burial and Christoph de Babylon to my usual electronic rotation. They are absolutely my jam. I've already listened to Shpongle pretty extensively - really enjoyed it but it's something I have to be in the mood for. I tend to listen to a lot of Infected Mushroom to get that same vibe without feeling like I need to commit to a 50+ minute experience like the Shpongle albums are.

I'm looking for new bands to check out. Something in the general sound and lyrical style as Brand New, Jimmy Eat World or The Wonder Years. Musically, I'd say I want something sorta melodic pop-punk-ish, a bit melancholic, and with lyrics that actually sound like they were written by someone over the age of 25. Bonus points if I can buy their stuff on Bandcamp.

Exit Verse didn't really click for me, but I dug PUP and Jeff Rosenstock. Thanks for the recs!
