Two examples that come to me immediately are Enya and Smashing Pumpkins. If music starts feeling stale, I can put on Enya and music feels new again. It’s such a pleasant departure from the standard pop/rock/RnB etc sounds that dominate (even if I like those artists).
Anybody have their own equivalents?
I’m glad that you drew my attention to them because I listened to so much rock in my youth that I have an instant skip reflex now. But this is great.
And yeah, I’ve noticed my tastes collapsing in on a smaller range these days too. That’s why I started the thread, to try and find something different and great. I got enough good suggestions to last me at least a year!
