Hi all, I wanted to start a discussion about current (or at least semi-current) artists that are releasing ‘audiophile’ recordings in an attempt to discover some new music that I may be missing out on. I have been stuck in a rut listening to the same old things (mostly jazz). It occurred to me this sub is mostly about the gear, room treatments, and those types of things but I don’t see a lot about the music we all listen to or discussions about new artists. I was watching a ‘New Record Day’ video the other day and he mentioned an artist Dominique Fils-Aime so I checked her out and I’m really digging her vocal/upright bass stuff. How do you all find new artists to listen to? What new stuff have you been listening to that you think this sub should know about? Lastly, should we have a weekly new music thread where we discuss new music that was released or discovered the previous week? I’d love to see more content on this sub about the music/artists we all love. Thanks,

    Ben Harper - Fight for your mind. Amazing production. His other albums are good too but not as well produced.
    Jonathan Wilson - Gentle spirit. Old school analog production that sound fantastic.
    Leonard Cohen - Thanks for the dance. Old artist, new(ish) record, amazing.
    Alela Diane - Cusp. Great piano sound.
    Anything recorded by Daniel Lanois.
    Loreena Mckennitt if you haven’t listen too her. Not really new but still active.
    Jon Batiste - WE ARE. A bit too upfront for me, but great production nonetheless.
    Rhiannon Giddens - Freedom Highway.
