Hey MinntraX crew Where do you usually go to find new bands or artists? Once in a while I take a music stroll on YouTube just start with a artist I like and I follow the recommendations till it's 2am... I have alot of fun discovering new artist that way or street performers like.. Infidelix https://youtu.be/KOlDxJbZKr8

Hey MinntraX, What type of headphones do you use at home when you are jamming out and getting lost in the music. In other words what does your audio setup look like? Thanks for great content!

I've always marveled at how well video game cutscenes look in contrast to the actual gameplay. With both system specs for next gen revealed, how much farther do the think we have until we essentially have playable cutscenes?

C’mon by fun. and panic at the disco. A collab I am not sure how many people are familiar with this crossover between two of the most popular pop punk bands at the time. https://youtu.be/klHpznbGeYc

Hey Guys! Super pumped to see Future of the Left on here! A huge McLusky and Future of the Left fan! Opeth I've listened to a bit but they never stuck. Anyways, coming in with a recommendation for a band called Horseburner with their album The Thief. Some very heavy riffs and great drumming come together for a very powerful album.

Hey all! Digging the podcast so far - my question would be how much music do you guys listen to that's not in your native language? When looking for new music to listen to I'd say my number one source is to just scroll through NPR's Tiny Desk series and give things a shot. A few years back they had a band called Los Hacheros that has become one of my favorite bands to listen to even though I don't speak any Spanish. If you wanted to check them out 'Bambulaye' is an awesome fast paced track (after the intro). Interested to hear your thoughts! -Newman

What are the first 3 albums you bought for yourself (and of your own choice) and why? Do you still listen to them?

Heya! Looking forward to listen to a new podcast here and there! No questions this time, but I'll be submitting a classic song from a classic game: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YzwgGNPetE4 this is an orchestral version done by a local orchestra from Montreal. They're amazing and that version is pretty good! Would love to hear your thoughts on the song and that version.

Whoever added Billy Strings to the community Spotify playlist knows what's up. Love me some Billy MF Strings.

Song Rec: Anything by Milky Chance, the specific song would be "Oh Mama." They have such a unique sound that still feels rooted in a singular place they keep revolving around.
