Figured it'd be cool to give some shine to artists we enjoy that most folks would be unfamiliar with.
Please don't post videos without some kind of description - even a few words or just telling what genre it is is cool.
Choir Boy - Two Lips. Infectious and danceable dark pop masterpiece from their album 'Passive With Desre':

Hexx - Morbid Reality. Frantic deathy Thrash. These guys started as a Trad/Power band. They changed. A lot.

Prog metal mixed with jazz fusion.

All my are video game music but they are all songs I never hear anyone talk about that I would call hidden music gems.
When people talk about water world themes, they mostly talk about Aquatic Ambulance from Donkey Kong Country. However, I feel like this song does a better job at creating that unknown waters feel. This also falls under the category of a movie license game having WAY BETTER music than it has any right having.
I'm not surprised that not many people know about this song, as Mario Artist: Paint Studio only came out in Japan on the Nintendo 64 DD. I always get a chilled out 90's Weather Channel feeling to this. Really good music to have in the background.
It's a shame not many video game fans know about Tim Follin. He pulls stuff that makes you go "This is on the NES!?" Just music that's on another level for the system.

I've liked for years the obscure lists 80zforever has been uploading on Youtube. This is one of my favourite albums I've found in recent years (there's pretty good description under the video), especially the first song gives so many freakin' memories.

some 60s/70s songs I like
Badinger (The Name of the Game) - I consider them one of the most underrated bands of the era, signed to The Beatles Apple label, their most famous song - Without You, is often attributed to Harry Nilsson.
Sagittarius (My World Fell Down) - 60s garage and psychedelic rock as loads of hidden gems and here is one of them.
The Hollywood Brats (Another School Day) - some 70s glam rock now, really underrated band

Nice.

While it's an artist that I'm sure people here are familiar with, I didn't even know this existed 'til I wandered across it one night and fell in love. Here's a Youtube channel I subscribe to that posts music from fairly obscure underground rock artists, there's some excellent stuff on there.

Hugo Race, a criminally underappreciated artist from the Nick Cave tree.

This is something that only if you are a fan of symphonic metal or more so a nightwish fan you would have come across this.
A little info on this..Henk there is legendary for being the dutch phantom of the opera and of course there is the metal valkyrie IMO the best singer on the planet right now in Floor Jansen lead vocalist for my favourite band in Nightwish.
Floor absoloutley fangirls for Henk ever since she first saw him perform in Phantom Of The Opera when she was like 11yrs old he has basically unknowingly been her inspiration and mentor and Henk only agreed to this performance on one condition that he be able to perform it with Floor when Nightwish on their tour hits Findland and of course Floor agreed and so we got this amazing special performance.
Also as you watch this Henk when he starts singing the second time he creates this distortion to his voice and this is amazing for the reason that earlier on the same show for the first time ever learned to distort when he performed Disturbs version of sound of silence and he learned it because like I said he wants to perform this version of the song with Nightwish.
So yea this is a an unbelievable and really special kind of a performance and again really I consider a hidden gem that only really nightwish diehards specifically the floor era of nightwish know about and rightly rave about it and the valkyrie that is Floor.

Allow me my abstract hip-hop bullshit.
Anti-pop consortium are a New York Times Saturday crossword puzzle as a rap group. They were signed to weird EDM label Warp, and so a lot of their focus is on odd engineering and production. I dig them hardcore.

Asbestoscape. Honestly, don't know much about this group or where I even got the MP3's from. Not even sure what kind of music you'd categorize this as. Post-rock, electronic? Who knows...
Still, this is a pretty chill track.

Akai Ryuusei/Tokyo Active NEETs: a group that's mostly known for making jazz arranges of music from the Touhou games (something I'll dive into this thread later). For this post though, here's a jazz cover of the Vocaloid song Spinal Fluid Explosion Girl Just a catchy tune. A frantic pace for most part. The keyboard and bass bits gives out a lot of energy. For reference, the original version of the song, www.youtube.com/watch?v=kIp1zuLOK4U

I've been listening to Zombie Hyperdrive album Hyperion recently an 80s Electronic Synthwave kind of music. Who knew you could embed spotify to proboards, that's kind of cool

Admittedly, I usually don't care about Hip-Hop enough to sift through all the stuff I'd dislike to find things I do, but this is pretty neat. Hip-Hop for Tom Waits fans.
