Keyword artist , or band/group name. I’m not looking for a genre, I want to search artists. Tell me about someone you like listening to.

Would appreciate if it’s Not symphonic/orchestral movie/videogame OST. I know there is a lot of really good music in this category but I’m trying to avoid recommendations like Hans Zimmerman or Jeremy Soule or Enya etc., since they are either really well known or fall into the orchestral and/or “epic music score” I’m not looking for.

It’s OK if some tracks have vocals or even some lyrics/voice samples but I prefer to keep them at a minimum.

Any suggestions? TIA

    Thanks for the recommendations, I’ll be checking them out for sure. They sound good.

    Yes, I am aware that I may be limiting myself there. Feel free to add any OST you think are worthy of mention. Solar Fields is one my favourite artists and also the author of Mirrors Edge OSTs, for example. I just tried to avoid a wall of text explaining in detail what I like and what not, so n1. No lyrics and N.2 to avoid classical styles and well known osts, which I think would be the most likely recommendation types. I think I prefer to be introduced into new music through artist recommendations and not genres.

    Don’t get me wrong, I still enjoy classical a lot, as well as music with lyrics. The Fat Of The Land is a favourite and I still remember when I first heard it. Blew my mind as a child. Listening to it as an adult is still a guaranteed trip. I like some other things from The Prodigy but that’s their high water mark imo.
