Welcome to Obscure Music

Linked Communities

This is a community dedicated to sharing lesser-known music. Please try to submit and share lesser known music. I reserve the right to remove any music I feel is not obscure enough. Please don't take it personally if I do. It's just some people are sometimes not aware that a band or a project is bigger than they think.

Please try to format roughly like this:

Artist Name - Song Title [Genre] [Year]

Obscurity Guidelines:

  1. Any artist with more than one song with over 2 million listens or views on Spotify or Youtube is not considered obscure.
  2. Any sideproject of a popular band or musician or celebrity.
  3. Covers and Remixes of popular songs that violate rule (1) on their own. Covers of popular songs tend to attract more attention than the band might.

Please do not post any artist more than once a week.

How does everyone find their Obscure Music? (lemm.ee)
submitted 1 month ago by [email protected] to c/[email protected]

Forgive me if this isn't allowed, but where do people find their obscure music?

I use:

  • this instance
  • local small festivals
  • in Spotify they link similar artists. So, if I like the feel of one small artist I can find more like them
  • occasionally when I search for a specific song they will list not that song, but the title is interesting enough for me to try it

How do others find their obscure music?
