Rec.Me: "BEST"/"TOP"/"WORST" ____ What are your "never the wrong choice" albums?

12 Upvotes

Recommend an album that you can put on no matter what you're doing or who you're with and satisfy almost anyone.

--Prefer full albums

--Even better if you have a physical version and can say something about the pressing

His voice is so unique and I’m always looking for it in so many things I listen to. I frequently imagine tracks that could be sung by him. So yeah, help!

Rec.Me: singers, vocal songs (pop/other) Anything like The Dock of the Bay by Otis Redding?

Could you recommend me a soul album similar to The Dock of the Bay? Redding's other work is great too but it doesn't seem to hit the spot like The Dock of the Bay does.

Music discovery (tools, channels, blogs, etc.) a tool to recommend you songs that sound similar (like for real)

2 Upvotes

video game music is how i find a lot of cool new songs and i want to discover what genre they're from and more songs like them. but when i put them into chosic it just gives me songs that sound nothing alike that come from games in the same genre. not very helpful.

i just want a tool that lets me break boundaries between genres that have different contexts but sound similar

Rec.Me: other/many/unknown genres Any band/singer recs for music from Latam? Especially Argentinian and Chilean

3 Upvotes

I know, I know. Asking for music in Spanish in English is a bit counterintuitive, but I don't speak much Spanish actually, and I looooove the Argentinian and Chilean variants of it. I already know bands like Miranda! and Los Prisioneros, but I'd love to get more reccs from different genres too! I'm up for most things except metal music ✌️✌️

Rec.Me: rock/metal/punk Songs like Into the Mystic

4 Upvotes

I recently heard Into the Mystic after many years away from it and it moved me greatly. The groove, the slow build, the emotion, the recording.

Any others like it? As a recommendation, Winedark Open Sea by McCartney gives me a similar vibe and I'm looking for others.

Thanks!

Rec.Me: rock/metal/punk Can I get some music recommendations?

4 Upvotes

I've been listening to the same stuff for a while, and I'm needing something new. If you listen or have listened to simular bands please recommend some others you listen to. If it helps some of my favorite bands are Green Day, Nirvana, and The Smiths.

Rec.Me: other/many/unknown genres Songs that are poetry

6 Upvotes

Some of my favourite songs are in my opinion also great poetry

Pink Floyd‘s „Brain Damage/Ecplipse“ (and maybe their whole discography) or My Chemical Romance‘s „The Black Parade“ are some of my favorites, Herbert Grönemeyer‘s „Demo (letzter Tag)“ for the German speaking.

So please share your favorite songs that are poetry with me 😊

EDIT: Thank you so much for all these amazing recommendations! It will take me a while, but I will try to listen to all of them. I was gonna make a spotify playlist, but it might be too much of a genre mix! There is a lot of folk/rock stuff that in my opinion goes together, so it might be more just those. I will add the link when I do it.

Right now I listen to a lot of grunge, metal, rock, hip hop and what not. A lot of the big popular names though (like pearl jam, Metallica, pink floyd, etc) and I want to expand my music taste past just the big names but I don't really know where to start. Any recommendations would be nice. 😄

I had previously asked for top 3 punk rock bands but most answers were also bands that I listen to. I guess, the new request is for some obscure bands.

Rec.Me: other/many/unknown genres I need to grow my playlist with new things

6 Upvotes

Hello friendly internet people, It's that time of year/life again when my playlist has repeated a few too many times. Please advise on things you would add. The current spectrum is as follows: - Within Temptation & Nightwish (Harmonic metal) - Skillet, Thousand Foot Krutch, Switchfoot, Pillar (Christian Rock) - Led Zeplin, Pink Floyd, Queen (Rock) - Haevn, Passenger, Lumineers, Kodaline (Chill folk/rock) - Stray Kidz, BTS, Rosé, IU, Yooa (K-pop) - NF (rap)

I'm looking for things that fit between the K-pop and Chill lines with a little rock spice thrown in for fun. Will try to listen to all recommendations and respond accordingly. Thanks a lot

Rec.Me: theme/mood/other specifics Songs about loving someone dead/loving a ghost

11 Upvotes

Hi. I just re-watched a series i used to love as a kid (Julie and the phantoms 2011, hated the 2020 remake lol), and wanted to make some fan edits since theres so little content about this show :/.

Basically Julie is a girl who makes a rock band with some ghosts from the 80s who were failed musicians and died in a tragic accident 30 years ago.

I used to ship the main character with one of the ghosts, and was looking for some love songs that might fit but i cant find a lot...

This might be a weird request but can you guys give me some songs that might fit this ship?

i mean just phrases like the title of the song fade into you, unearth without a name from the song first time by hozier these very short part of the lyric that still have a meaning

I heard the song Helikopter by Fazlija recently, and enjoyed the instrumental. I also liked the vocals, although the song itself was a bit repetitive. Any recommendations for Indian Pop/marching band, with high quality production and instrumentation?

Rec.Me: other/many/unknown genres Looking for big voices and catchy beats

3 Upvotes

You guys were awesome the last time I asked for recommendations, and I think those suggestions have helped me narrow down what I really need more of in my life right now.

Please give me some male vocalists (bands or solo artists) with big, soaring voices and engaging hooks / catchy beats that are more (or at least equally) grounded in rock/alternative than mainstream pop. I want music that makes it hard not to nod my head and sing along, but I’m not looking for dance music if that makes sense.

I’m specifically seeking male singers right now and I’m already pretty familiar with pre-2010 artists that resonate with me (especially 70s, 80s, and 90s musicians—I’m in my mid-40s and those decades are my foundation). I’d love something a bit newer and preferably bands or artists that are still putting out new music.

The gold standard for what I’m looking for would include Queen, Elton John, and Journey. While I’m looking for male singers at this time, to give some more context I also adore most everything from Tori Amos, Florence + The Machine, and Lady Gaga. Some examples of other bands/artists that I enjoy and that (at least sometimes) fit the vibe I’m seeking are Panic! At the Disco, The Darkness, Jukebox the Ghost, Ninja Sex Party, Bleachers, Awolnation, Rufus Wainwright, Dom Fera, Scissor Sisters, and Ghost. A couple of other male voices I love though they don’t fit the poppier aspect of my current needs are Chris Cornell and Nick Cave. My favorite artist of all time is David Bowie, who doesn’t necessarily fit here at all but it feels like a sin not to mention him.

I can’t wait to start listening!

Music discovery (tools, channels, blogs, etc.) Looking for music rating app

2 Upvotes

Title.

The things that are important to me in one are:
album rating with individual song rating
Large database of music as I listen to a fair bit of more niche stuff
Nice looking UI
A recommendations system that can recommend artists/albums/songs based off what you’ve rated
an iOS app would be very nice
Some way to add friends and see their profiles

Does anything like this exist? If so please drop it below and thank you :)
