I’m watching “The real reason algorithms are bad for art” by Digging the greats and can’t remember the last time I asked real humans for recommendations for music. At one point, he is going around asking people of artists/albums that they recommend. I thought that was a cool idea. Then I thought, what if I asked lemmy/mastodon/ect and see what you all recommend?

Who is your favorite artist and what song/album would you recommend?

I’m looking to expand my horizons a bit.

I’ll start.

There’s a local band called the red coats. I think they only have one album. I can’t find a Bandcamp link but their music is here should you like to hear them. My wife and I saw them live at tiny little shops.

    AURORA!!

    I’d recommend The Gods We Can Touch, and when you’re done with that What Happened to The Heart. If you’re wondering who she is, maybe listen runaway, you’ll probably recognize that. Hope you enjoy! :)
