Are you discovering new music?

@whart you have great taste! And I like your train of thought there. I’ve been burned on chasing obscure for obscure sake… and left disappointed a lot. I’m gonna check out that Horace Tapscott you mentioned and I Love Cecil McBee.

I wish Chad/mofi would take more chances on non-popular records… seems like they tend to focus on the well known artists.
as for new artists I’m discovering this month?

King Floyd

Cosmic Eye (the whole Amancio D’ Silva catalog)

Marcos Valle (what a rabbit hole..)

This is through vinyl though. I have a hard time “discovering” through streaming.

I got into this hobby because of music and eventually became an audiophile but I am constantly looking for new music. There is so much good music that it is disconcerting sometimes as to how much I have missed whether new or old. Lately , my favorite new album is Everlasting Dance by the Tierro Band with Bridget Law on Octave Records. If you aren’t familiar with Octave Records they are part of PS Audio and can be purchased on their website. This album is one wild toe tapping ride. If you like Gypsy violin with a dash of flamenco guitar , rock underpinnings and a hint of tex/mex you will enjoy this album. As a bonus it is extremely well recorded.

@whart, Mainly or not, this site is also about tunes almost to the point of check-mate.

Here are a few of my favorites that are not real well known:

Tanakh / Ardent Fevers

Sparklehorse / It's a wonderful life

Bardo Pond / Dilate

Magik Markers / Boss

Magic Markers are AWESOME!
