What music do you listen to that's away from the norm? Besides the Gaga and the Beatles, the Swift and the Fray, Jay-Z and Owl City, etc. etc. etc. ? Basically people that the commercial world never pays attention to. Feel free to link to youtube so we can check them out! For me I love instrumental versions, especially Vitamin String Quartet and the Piano Tribute Conservatory VSQs Lady Gaga is really awesome even if you don't like Gaga: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IN8DPNDN-6E Don't Stop Believing VSQ: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P0LKMo2cNPY Owl City's Vanilla Twilight on Piano: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1qWxptQqsw4 |

The XX - Intro (Long Version) and The XX - VCR The XX is an amazing band. And I can't figure out in what category of music they'd fit in. But their music makes me calm. And I can listen to their music for hours, the same song all over and over.

I actually listen to a lot of Indie and other less popular genres. Awesome yet underrated songs are all over the place and there'd be way too many of such songs I can think of to recommend at the moment. So I'll just share three of them first: Kasabian - L.S.F The Offspring - Kristy Are You Doing Okay All Time Low - Break Your Little Heart |

MisaMil, I LOVE The xx, though I'm sad to say they're becoming quite mainstream here, meaning everybody and their cat plays their music 24/7. Kind of puts a dampener on it if it's all you can listen to. As for me, I can't get enough of Muscles. Check these two songs out. I also love The Postal Service. They definitely don't get the recognition they deserve. Check these two out There's probably a lot more rustling around my computer somewhere. |

Can see that. But then again MTS was created in the year 2000. So still, I'm quite confused about that. |

I listen to classical, mostly. I have a fondness for 18th/early 19th-century American composers, who practically no one else knows. They aren't even recorded all that much, so I have to play stuff myself. As for non-classical stuff, I'm pretty mainstream, but I don't know much current stuff. I'm still stuck in the 80s, and I like 80s New Wave. And I like electronic/cinematic stuff. Maybe E.S. Posthumus or Rob Dougan would count as unique? I don't really know... |

Redmond Flats, my eleventy-th stab at a "Build A City" challenge. Unfortunately, I didn't keep up with documenting it. But you can find rules and tracking spreadsheets and stuff there.
For stuff what I've made, there's my LJ. There be downloads there, some of which aren't/won't be here on MTS. |

Um. Apparently it's weird by my coworker's standards, (I guess... because it's not standard innocuous salon pop?) But, I doubt it would shock anyone here. Anywho, here's something- Cocorosie- Lemonade (beginning's a bit slow) Erykah Badu- Amerykahn Promise April March - Laisse Tomber les Filles Cake- End of the Movie Pogo- Wishery |

I love the Postal Service. Sleeping in is my favourite song. Aside from that I like Fidelity and Adventures in Solitude If you like Owl City, I recommend Daniel Hunter's older stuff (i.e. as playradioplay!). I like Confines of Gravity and I'm Afraid There's a Hole in My Brain. |

My Chemical Romance never get enough attention for my liking. Or other band like Blink182, Hawthorne Heights, The Cure etc. However I DO like some game soundtracks, which, obviously, are never like, on the charts. |

I'd say Ladytron. Their music are just "like it or hate it", I think. Never met anyone who likes their music, though, but I do am a huge fan :D In fact, I like mostly not so well known bands and singers, like Kasabian. |

Incubus? unknown? sorry. lol. That's kinda funny. But I'd agree with you on Ladytron and Kasabian, I've always had a soft spot for Ladytron. |

I've recently developed a fondness for A Filetta, their textures and harmonies are amazing. I like Dala, too. |

Misamii: I once was on a forum thread where they all joined in 1970, 1980 and even in the 50's  Trivialsim: I love MCR and Hawthorne heights! I currently listen 1 song by Napalm Death, it's their only normal song that's 3 minutes long, they only have samples which are about 30-40 seconds long. Puh. Grindcore.. |

Hm... I don't know what to consider "unique". You define it as non-mainstream but I have a hard time believing that The Beatles aren't unique. They may be very popular, but they still explored a lot of different styles that you don't hear bands do too much. I guess, for me it's The Divine Comedy, though. Apparently they're over in Europe, if they're really popular than I apologize, I don't live in Europe. lol Timewatching Sticks and Stones Charmed Life Our Mutual Friend I guess Blood, Sweat & Tears could be considered "unique", too. According to my parents they were a really popular band back in their time, but they raised me up with rock from their time and I hadn't ever heard of the band until a year ago.
