Can you recommend contemporary music artists without lyrics?
Can you recommend contemporary music artists without lyrics?
Keyword artist , or band/group name. I'm not looking for a genre, I want to search artists. Tell me about someone you like listening to.
Would appreciate if it's Not symphonic/orchestral movie/videogame OST. I know there is a lot of really good music in this category but I'm trying to avoid recommendations like Hans Zimmerman or Jeremy Soule or Enya etc., since they are either really well known or fall into the orchestral and/or "epic music score" I'm not looking for.
It's OK if some tracks have vocals or even some lyrics/voice samples but I prefer to keep them at a minimum.
Any suggestions? TIA

In hindsight I don't know if a giant list is the most useful thing but it's here if you want it.
This is quite a list, you have good taste.
Saving your list. I really like Oh Hiroshima. “Drone” is on my steady rotation.
Thank you! I like some post rock, I know some of these and some not, I'll be checking them out. Cheers!
