Lately I’ve been looking into Brian Eno’s solo works, alongside exploring experimental electronic albums. Trying to find new sounds and textures for inspiration!

While trying to figure out the discography of The Gathering, a band that has been on my radar for a long time but with a lot of albums and different sounds to go through, I’ve come across Agua de Annique / Anneke van Giersbergen, the solo career of the now ex Gathering vocalist, which is fairly easy listening (although still rock / alternative) and something to listen to slowly when I’m in the mood.

And then also the previous band of the current Gathering vocalist, Octavia Sperati, which is some sort of gothic flavoured metal I guess? I dunno, I don’t really care to know subgenres of subgenres. But I’m really enjoying this one. Which kinda sucks because it looks like they haven’t done anything since their vocalist joined the Gathering.

And then today I listened to some Chappell Roan and I liked it! Not music that I’m always in the mood for but I think it’ll go nicely in my rotation of '80s and '90s stuff when I’m feeling so inclined.

Edit: also I think I’m gonna finally look up whoever it is that does the intro songs for Ghost in the Shell - Stand Alone Complex.

Discovering that Argentina apparently had quite a big classic rock scene in the 1970’s and 80’s

MBR, but also bach, erik satie and old gregorian chants.

I recently found out about saraunh0ly. She’s quite amazing if your into what I can only describe as a mix of gothic, darkwave house.

Been digging some mixes on Soundcloud by Delayed, Deep Breakfast Series and MONUMENT. Found some gems, can recommend this for example: https://macadammambo.bandcamp.com/album/mms404-igaxx-here-and-there
