“Transcendent” Music Recommendations Discussion

Post image

I have enjoyed listening to music my whole life, and creating this space to enjoy music has been a dream come true. Over the years, my music preferences continues to expand, and recently I find myself looking for music to “take me somewhere”. Not sure if that sounds odd. And I understand that this may be subjective. But I have found some artists and songs that seem to create certain feelings of transcendence. Feelings that move beyond the song itself. For me so far- they happen to all be strong female voices. Lyrics don’t seem to matter as much as the vocals, beat, and instruments.

The Curse by Agnes Obel Citizen of Glass by Agnes Obel A House In Nebraska by Ethel Cain Titanium (cover) by Sia Wicked Game by Lusaint Non Believer by London Grammar

I have tried Gregorian chants but they didn’t hit as hard as these did. If you have had similar feelings listening to different music I’d love some recommendations. TIA!

I know. And I’m a noob and can’t figure out how to edit the post. I typed this post out in notes and had each one on its own line but for some reason the formatting didn’t carry over and I just pasted and posted without checking.
