What is your favorite niche genre of music?

[Ozi]

I'm interested in what (if any) smaller genres of music you guys listen to

 

[poff1170]

1960's and 1970's moog electronic music. Jean-Jacques Perrey is a good artist in this genre.

Im really into Akishibu-kei :> not sure if its really niche or anything, my fav artist in this genre is orange lounge / tomosuke wbu ?

1960's and 1970's moog electronic music. Jean-Jacques Perrey is a good artist in this genre.

I had never heard of that genre of music or of jean-jacques perrey, but i am currently playing his album "Moog indigo" and i must say i really like it, i feel my brain vibrating, such unique sounds heheh. Never heard anything quite like this, the closest i got to electronic music was daft punk, thanks for recommending tho, i like discovering new things :3

 

[Fwompje]

Progressive metal for me, and deathcore.

 

[cogmachine]

grindcore, not sure how popular j-core is.

 

[chocolatebar]

I used to like very alternative things, touched by pure creativity, without the needs to impress the big public and get monetary revenue. "Hatebeak" could be one example.

I used to like grunge a lot too, but I don't know how much it can considered a niche, because it's quite popular. However, I can't listen to it anymore, because it makes me reminisce about my older age, lost life, and decay.

Denpa!

 

[CandyK__]

Breakcore, Dark ambient, and some Vocaloids.

Idk how niche it is, but Webcore is one for me.
Alongside Hyperpop, although Hyperpop's less of a niche nowadays.

most of the music i listen to is 'niche' in terms of popularity, but the nichest thing i adore is electroacoustic improvisation (or EAI for short).
