Hi. 

 

I am always keen to find a way to introduce new positive ways for people to interact on the forums. The world can seem a scary dark place at the minute. 

 

I am absolutely a music fan, and I use it to help me when I am feeling dark. 

 

I also love to discover new artists and music and so I thought I would start this thread and offer an opportunity for people to share new music, artists, cool music videos etc that they have found and perhaps help others find something new. 

 

I have a massively eclectic taste in Music, but also do tend toward female vocalists with a great range/power or a unique voice. 

 

 

 

Tones and I is a relatively new artist and whilst I don't like everything she does, some of her music is really cool. Most people would know her from : 

 

 

 

More recently I heard: 

 

 

 

 

 

 

One of my favourite music videos of all time is Callum Scott's Audition

 

 

 

 

I really like this I heard from him recently;

I came across M83 somewhere along the line, obtained their "Junk" album, and enjoy it. Fairly mellow stuff, good to chill out to.

I'm really enjoying this awesome artist at the moment. I quite like his acoustic covers too.

I'd like to report the above post for being extremely offensive and teenybopper like.

If you like a bit of funk and soul, try Charles Brdaley. He had a tragically short career, but the material he did record is pretty damn great imo.

You'll can Rick Roll me any day. I love that song and used to listen to it regularly, even when it became a 'thing'.

 

There is some surprisingly good songs that are only ever featured on movie soundtracks. One recent one that impressed me, although it's about five years old now, is the Sing Street soundtrack which has several good songs. This my favourite...

 

 

Great film too.

My absolute favorite artist for a couple of years now...  seemingly unknown here but gaining in popularity.  His Genre is officially "Murder Folk" he writes songs about life and serial killers and all sorts of topics in between...  Songs that will touch your soul.  To me he is a musical Genius and it is hard to sum it up in just one song, so heres three to check out and see if he blows you away as much as he does for me.

 

 

 

  Amigo the Devil - The Weight

 

 

 

Hell and You

 

 

 

Murder at the Bingo Hall

 

 

 

 





Doing your best is much more important than being the best.

As strange as it may seem for me (who does not like country and loves all things Metal and Hardcore) I absolutely loved that. It had that Southern Soul feel to it, while also retaining a sense of Nashville. 

 

I'm downloading a bunch of their stuff now.

Saw these guys open for Alien Weaponry a couple of years ago and instantly became a fan...especially once they came into the crowd to become fans when AW were on stage! Great bunch of blokes.

Yeah, saw Shepherds Reign at last Devilskin show I went to, not my taste. 

 

Devilskin, Like A Storm, Black Smoke Trigger, they're all awesome Kiwi bands for rock, seen them many times :D (Followed them for good chunk of a group tour they all did together a few years ago)
