Antoha MC and KUKIKODAN.
The former, Antoha MC, is a Russian rapper who I like for his dark atmosphere and melodic accompaniment that complements his humming raps.
The latter, KUKIKODAN, is a Japanese band whose lyrics and music seem to reflect on the everyday passing of daily life.

Saw M83 live recently. They put on one of the best performances I’ve ever seen
Nice. I’m definitely keeping an eye out for new tour date announcements
Tessa Violet and Lilas Ikuta. Been getting both of their song in playlist for a while now, only recently really start to listen to their collection. Haven’t fully explore their music yet but i love what i’ve been listening.
Tessa Violet is great in concert, I will say :3
Recently to me is like 3-4 years. And I have given more bands a little more of a listen that I had originally written off when they got big. Shinedown, in this moment, and ghost were all bands that I had originally written off, but after listening to more, I actually really enjoy.
Beyond that, there’s a French song I’ve been pursuing since I bought gran Turismo 7 that I’ve been dieing to find the artist name, despite it showing on screen whenever it changes, I never think to look, because I’m busy doing something else, I’m just like, “ooh this is that song I love!” And by the time I think to look in the corner, it’s gone.
A Tribe Called Quest! Can I kick it?
Fenne Lily, I find her voice mesmerizing.
Lambrini Girls, which are like The Chats if they were lesbians and from England instead of Australia.
Alfie Jukes, just because he’s some fun lighthearted quality pop.
I just noticed that they’re all from England. What can I say, the English still produce a bunch of good musical artists.
I saw Lambrini Girls open for Amyl and the Sniffers in Detroit. They killed it!
Castle Rat.
I’ve never been into pop music, but I am absolutely hooked on Nilufer Yanya.

It’s kind of funny because I’ve been listening to heavy metal for decades, but I just recently really got into Megadeth.
Bob Vylan - like early Rage Against the Machine. Found out about them when they got banned from entry to the US - which is how I’m discovering most of my music these days.
Reminds me of when Das Racist were detained and deported from the UK.
