Would love to see what niche/under appreciated creators are out there! Also what your favorite videos are of theirs!
Mine is this guy who creates songs based on Age of Empires 2 SFX and content creators/pros. So he’s SUPER niche and will probably never become big, but I still adore him.
Catchy song made with AOE2 sfx

A totally legit love song about how much a pro named MBL loves another player called Hoang.

A content creator named T90 told a story about how he got absolutely rinsed in a game, and it was memorialized as a banger.

Just over 2k now, which is great but a bit surprising given the content. It’s improvised electronic audio generated entirely with a Korg MS20 rev2 synthesiser from around 1979.
It’s not everyone’s cuppa, but the synth is a type that is similar to the world famous Minimoog. Even so, it’s about as far away from that as possible in terms of sound. If the Moog is smooth and creamy, the Korg is knarly and vicious.
What makes it interesting is it’s ability to do unusual things. It has more in common in this sense with modular systems than the Minimoog.
Ok it’s nuts, but also fascinating and to me and two thousand or so other weirdos, captivating.
If you like it, I recommend large speakers to really experience the depth of sound from this classic machine. Just be careful with the volume.
