Hello folks! Well, I thought there should be a separate thread where members can critique, comment and recommend music that does not necessarily fall under the popular or rock music genre.
My personal favourite, Pink Floyd, I'd imagine would fall under such a category, their music being more often classified as psychedelic. They are are however very popular.
However, the band I had in mind while starting this thread is Indian Ocean. Wonder if anyone here has listened to them. They are an Indian rock-fusion band. And no ordinary band either. Comprising of some extremely talented musicians, especially the virtuoso guitarist Susmit Sen who has an extremely unique style of playing the instrument, the maverick tabla player Asheem, drummer Amit and bass guitarist Rahul, Indian Ocean has a sound very unique to the band. I haven't heard music similar to Indian Ocean elsewhere. Essentially based on Indian rhythms and traditional classical compositions, it is amazing how harmoniously they blend it with the western instruments they practice.
Any such bands you know?! Bands that produce fabulous music, but are under-rated or are not popular for reasons other than the quality of their music?
