Not sure if it's obscure since I don't go out much, but "Tastes like Candy" by Kissing Violet and "Wolf" by AlicebanD.

[–] agamemnonymous@sh.itjust.works 1 points 8 months ago

Was not expecting to see anyone else talk about Library Takeout.

I like a lot of obscure songs. Here's one of my random faves: Swamp - Mid-Air Thief

First thing that came to mind is a song by a band that I can't even find online. I have the song as an .mp2 file. How's that for obscure?

Here's one that is online: Technical Jelly (Live) - Honor Among Thieves

[–] urheber@discuss.tchncs.de 1 points 6 months ago (1 children)

do you have a name? or could you share the file? I don't know why but it sounds so interesting and now I wanna hear it...

E.O.A. by Bobnoxious

A song about the infamous East of Adelaide area of London, Ontario which is notoriously run-down compared to the rest of the city. A lot of the things mentioned in the song will sound very familiar to others who have lived in similar trashy neighbourhoods. The song became popular enough in London that one of London's former mayors, Joe Fantana, played the song with the band on the drums.

Anxiety - Optimus Rhyme

Wheelie Cyberman is one of my favorite obscure artists, and both Optimus Rhyme and his current band Supercommuter are great if you're into nerdrap and/or chiptune music (Supercommuter is much more chiptune than Optimus, but there's still a lot of influence there)! A couple more good tracks from both:

Unusual habits - Supercommuter

Bad ideas - Supercommuter

Reel Estate - Optimus Rhyme

Coded and United - Optimus Rhyme

I've been listening to it for over 40 years and it still fucking rocks.

Maybe Tomorrow by Abby Simons:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_WkKi4CbWN0

This is from an old Youtube channel, Abby would write, record, edit, and post a new song every week for a year... almost.
When the song pops into my head from time to time, I miss the way that youtube felt.

I got introduced to Brazilian Disco a few weeks ago:

Famks - Labirinto

[–] Redacted@lemmy.world 1 points 8 months ago* (last edited 8 months ago)

Not massively into D&B but this is one of my favourites:

Keeno (feat. Rou Reynolds) - Shelter From The Storm

[–] wick@lemm.ee 1 points 8 months ago

No Life King - Black Pyramid is under 40k views so probably that.

My first thought was Cryptkey - Windhand, or some Electric Wizard, but they are definitely more popular in general.

Most music I like is considered obscure by my friends...

[–] IchNichtenLichten@lemmy.world 1 points 8 months ago* (last edited 8 months ago) (2 children)

Memo From Turner from the soundtrack of the movie Performance.

It sounds like The Rolling Stones but it's only Mick, plus Ry Cooder on slide guitar.
