Trying this out here. We all seem to have pretty eclectic tastes here, so I figured we could swap artists!
Posters, pick a genre or give a description of what you’re after, and everyone else, chime in!
To start: this super sad folk record (singer/songwriter style) just popped into my head this morning
Ambient/melodic Vaporwave type stuff that doesn’t have any sort of beat/drums (or at least minimal beat/drums). Stuff kinda like this: desert sand feels warm at night - 夢の砂漠
I really like listening to that sort of stuff when I just want to chill out, but I also like sampling those sorts of track and using them to make Atmospheric Jungle/DnB (which is why I’d prefer songs with minimal/no drums).
I like creepy and unsettling folk tunes. Like some John Barleycorn Must Die or sometimes just some lo-fi folk recordings that sound creepy on accident. Any recs for me?
Amigo the Devil might be something close?
I want more internet poisoned hyperpop/Mashcore/digicore/daria core garbage please

Mount Eerie
A Crow Looked at Me https://youtu.be/tPzkNS4rits?si=CBPx_5bCUHkKcHz9 (the first track is about the artists’ wife’s death, probably the saddest song I’ve ever heard)
Massive reverb. Beautifully simple melody. Sounds like a hundred pianos playing at once in a hall.
I love it. Sounds like some of the more ambient Dungeon Synth I listen to.
Oh, yeah. This is one of them that I’ve been vibing with: https://youtu.be/Wp9pzKbENQk?si=1nxdKCAY68cYZNRE I also like this one from time to time: https://youtu.be/OxgVmpAk538?si=KmfvEy-faKJcF1mG That’s some of the more ambient stuff, but sometimes Glog goes into the ambient vibes for a song or two as well. Best part is, you can get it cheap off of bandcamp. And one more: https://youtu.be/2lS_Y-aNJwk?si=CVcouCfL6nXgrhrt There’s another one called Dark Alchemy or something like that, but I’m afraid of tabbing out and deleting this whole post on accident.
