    Hm...it is different but you might like Lana Del Rey. I find her music very relaxing and it is the only music with lyrics that I can study too.

    This! I love Lana Del Rey. I particularly love her song Video Games.

    OP, maybe you could listen to Johnny Cash? I'm now hooked onto a cover that he'd done from Nine Inch Nails:

    Old school, very undercover artist named Link, former member of the R and B group LSG. Also a producer.

    very Niche, so I doubt many will like it, however appreciation is key.

    I didn't read through the whole thing, but I think I get what kind of music you're into, so try these:

    Porcupine Tree, UByK, Figures, Other Lives, The Pixies and Mogwai.

    But tbh you've got most of the good ones in your list. I can't think of much else that isn't on your list :confused:

    I like a lot of the stuff you do, you've got good taste.

    Depeche Mode are one of my favourite bands, and they're probably the best electronic band ever, so checking them out is wise.

    For some new unknown artists that are really good you could check out Red Kites (Beat In Time EP) and Brown Bear & The Bandits (Truth or Dare EP).
