I personally connect deeply with Amélie Farren. I’ve been listening to her music since she first posted it to tiktok. I can’t explain what about it connects so well but it just clicjs for me.

That got me thinking what artists other lemmings connected to. Hence the title

    Sad pretentious answer: King Crimson.

    Simply stated sentiment, with bouts of internal fantasy, fleeting manic happy moments, but always struck to the ever present earmark of private existential despair that washes over you day after day.

    Jonathan Coulton. His songs are this perfect blend of funny, nerdy, and melancholic. Like, one song is about a self-loathing giant squid that I find myself totally identifying with.

    I think Poppy Ackroyd. Her piano pieces just tell a story that i have never really quite found elsewhere. Dirk Maasen and a few others come very close, but noone can surpass her

      Thanks for the reminder, I’ve not listened to Poppy for a while. Mechanism still sounds as beautiful as the first time I heard it!

    Oh wow, over 1m monthly listeners on Spotify and I’ve never heard of the artist. Though I don’t use Tik Tok so maybe I shouldn’t be too surprised hah. A good reminder of how huge the world of music is, let alone the arts

    The artist that comes closest is Borusiade, I often imagine myself somewhere in the music, regardless of the genre, era or cultural background. Their music feels the most “me” in the dark, shadowy vibe most of their music gets across… Breathe being a prime example.
