Here’s my 100 most listened to albums on last.fm for reference of what my taste is like, don’t let that stop you from recommending me things you think I won’t like though I’m trying to expand my horizons.
I also like listening to small artists, I write a series of artist features all about people less than a million Spotify listeners so if you have any recommendations for that lmk.
Deltron 3030.
Hes the rapper for the gorillaz but also has/had a solo career before/during/after the gorillaz as del the funkee homosapien.
The album is a sci-fi futurism concept hip hop album.
Mechanical Keyboard Sounds: Recordings of Bespoke and Customized Mechanical Keyboards
Edit: This is less music, and more relaxation sounds. But I really like it.
A Tribe Called Quest - Beats, Rhymes, & Life
Aesop rock - Skelethon
The drums are just 🤱
After going through your list a second time, I don’t see gorillaz newest album Cracker Island on it. I never thought the gorillaz would ever get close to their demon days height but I love their new album almost as much (its close, but you can’t outshine the sun)
I don’t see any of The Avalanches on there. All their stuff is good, but if you haven’t listened to them, probably start with the original Since I Left You album.
For reference, I discovered J Dilla - Donuts when trying to find more stuff like The Avalanches.
Here’s something unique. The album “Acheron” by Mechina.
I don’t think it’s in your regular taste. But it’s unique enough to be a suggestion.
Watch [email protected] you never know what might get posted.
Can’t see the list but basing this on the comments - I have been enjoying the new Hard Quartet album and think you might like. Rock and roll, more or less.
Janelle Monae, any of the first 3 albums in particular, but all of hers flow well.
Run the Jewels, if they aren’t already in your list. Second album, but again, any.
Absolutely love the new Fontaines DC album.
Since you are trying to expand your horizons here’s a bunch of weird stuff I like:
- Paper Kites - Woodland
- Hawaii Part II
- Jack Stauber - HiLo
- Marxist Love Disco Ensemble - MLDE
- Twin Resurrection - Volume 1
- Windows 96 - Reflections (tbh any album by Win96 is great)
- Chikoi The Maid - Leaving Reality
- Ginger Root - Shinbangumi
- PilotRedSun - Achievement
- Date of Birth - Planet Dob
- Akiko Yano - Tadaima
Something different - Lorn - Just listen to everything xD
To stay more hip hop
Cult of the Damned and all of their side projects, Lee Scott is a fucking son and pretty much everything he touches is gold. My particular favourite is the “Cult Mountain” side project.
I second Lorn! Dark ambient electronic sprinkled liberally with glitch elements is chef’s kiss.
Also would recommended Amon Tobin. ISAM is one of my favorite albums, and Lost and Found is often the song I’ll put on to introduce folks to his style.
Cannibal ox - Cold Vein
7 notas 7 colores - Hecho, es simple
CunninLynguists - Will Rap for Food
Nappy Roots - Watermelon, Chicken & Gritz
Deltron Zero - Deltron 3030
Jurassic 5 - self titled album
Lupe Fiasco Food & Liquor
Deltron Zero - Deltron 3030

The automatah
Love that Forever story is there as both original and extended version! Sticking to the strong lyricism rap themes Food and Liquor from Lupe Fiasco is great.
I think Eminem’s latest project The Death of Slim Shady was a lot of fun and showed his talent as an artist but it’s not for everyone thematically.
Hip Hop: DJ Shadow- Endtroducing… Blues: RL Burnside- A Ass Pocket of Whiskey Psychedelic Rock: The Cambodian Space Project- Whisky Cambodia Dance/Electro: The Presets- Apocalypso
