Hey I'm Alex
#1
Hey everyone,

Music fan and attempting musician.

I love bands such as Talking Heads, Ben Folds, Supertramp, Bonobo, Sufjan Stevens, Elbow, Nick Drake, The White Stripes, Brian Jonestown Massacre, Department of Eagles, Dave Matthews Band, Kaki King, King Khan, Little Dragon and Devendra Banhart (btw there are alotttt more).
I'm also partial to some hiphop such as A Tribe Called Quest, Common and De la Soul.
And I'm a big believer in Bandcamp. I love Little Kid, Zulya and the Children of the Underground, Laura Groves, Alex G, Enchanted Hunters, etc.
Check out my band if you feel like it or send me your own, https://walkingwithipods.bandcamp.com/

Any suggestions for music is welcomed

A friend passed them onto me after seeing them live... he was thoroughly impressed to say the least.

Hey thanks,

I've actually heard Portico Quartet before, I like that song and also spinner.

Have you heard Caribou, Vondelpark or Tosca, they are not exactly the same as Bonobo or Portico but they're worth a try. Particularly, with Tosca listen to No Hassle.
