Femtanyl: most of her songs are breakcore. And the cheeriness of the beat belies what's said in the lyrcs.
her music is the epitome of "a medieval child would have died if they had listened to this"
That's an apt description lmao
Let’s go let’s go let’s go!
I’m fond of Animal Sun and Lena Raine!
Obligatory mentions of Laura Jane Grace (Against Me!), Wendy Carlos, Sam Smith, Kim Petras, 100 gecs, Left at London, Nemo, and SOPHIE.
Some of these artists are huge and you've probably heard their stuff, but they're worth listing off anyway.
100 gecs is one of my favourite bands and I'm just now learning that Laura is trans 😅 Kinda dope actually that I've followed them for years and haven't seen anyone misgender her or otherwise be transphobic.
I guess that speaks to the type of person that listens to hyperpop, haha
I figured it out the first time I listened to "dumbest girl alive". It struck me as a story about a trans woman feeling awkward after transitioning, and I googled it and sure enough she was trans
Wendy Carlos
switched on bach and clockwork orange soundtracks are bangers.
Been a long time since they broke up, but I'll never stop loving G.L.O.S.S. (Girls Living Outside Society's Shit)
Lena Raine, known for the soundtrack of Minecraft and Celeste
Lena Raine's music is truly amazing
Honourable mentions:
Sludge Bunny is good for some punk sounds.
I always go into these music requests threads looking for punk rock and I don’t find much very often but this shit is amazing!! Thank you so much! I’m going to go buy some of their stuff 😊
An excuse to share my weird ass music tastes >:)
Underscores, SOPHIE, Frost Children, Galen Tipton / recovery girl
Frost Children is the only name I don't know, so I assume we're the same weird ass person and I'll probably love them. Thanks!
Fake! We all know Teto is true communist.
Arca, love her

Get into folkpunk and you will be drowned in great music where 80% the bands are trans/nonbinary and the others are allies.
Game Genie Sokolov is one of the most talented chiptune / FM-synth artists out there. I especially recommend the albums Signal Loss and Insert Disk 02. Not game music, she writes all-original songs.
Recently discovered Vylet Pony. It's soo talented and makes amazing brostep/EDM/metal. Check out its latest album Love & Ponystep. It's soo fun to listen to.
Also check out Zheanna Erose, basically a harmonic witch, she makes amazing microtonal music. Her EP WXTCHCRXFT takes you on a journey
In Love With A Ghost
I LOVE HER B-SIDE REMIX OF GOLDEN RIDGE
I didn't know she did celeste music!!!!!!!! It's so good!
It's a shame that's one of my favorite songs ever and I never looked at her other work ... do you have any recommendations??
oh gosh, it's so hard to choose, she has so mamy good songs... I'd say I'm personally partial to "We've never met but can we have a cup of coffee or something", and "Let's walk across this forest, I can feel everything being real again" though!
also can I point out her banging awesome website???
I took a little listen yesterday and aweee it's so cute :) I wanted to give her a big huggie
We love indie websites x3
Feminem
Sopor Aeternus and The Ensemble of Shadows
Against Me!
