I’m watching “The real reason algorithms are bad for art” by Digging the greats and can’t remember the last time I asked real humans for recommendations for music. At one point, he is going around asking people of artists/albums that they recommend. I thought that was a cool idea. Then I thought, what if I asked lemmy/mastodon/ect and see what you all recommend?
Who is your favorite artist and what song/album would you recommend?
I’m looking to expand my horizons a bit.
I’ll start.
There’s a local band called the red coats. I think they only have one album. I can’t find a Bandcamp link but their music is here should you like to hear them. My wife and I saw them live at tiny little shops.
Blanco White, British artist with Spanish/Latin influence. ‘The wind rose’ from his EP is such a good song and I think it reflects his style still. https://open.spotify.com/track/2B2iGPBD6RBWJ11uxtb34t?si=GidmWC2uSoSiDvwbw8XmyQ&context=spotify%3Aalbum%3A18WIUFEZRfWSRDhfnmO9NB
“Giordano’s dream” (both parts) are an amazing listen too. https://open.spotify.com/album/0ZiiZQCm1aez7Kt77j78QG?si=5e5wSsbETP2dNLOLlMVxhg
