Some good stuff in here! Glad to see Death Grips get posted. Here's a range of things: maybe on the aggressive side, and probably NSFW, but it's all good music for kitchens. Th' Legendary Shack Shakers are friends of mine and I don't think enough people know 'em.

here is the one and only jhop producer jun seba who had passed away recently in an earthquake in nippon.

great composer, alot of his "hip hop music" (which is usually sampled) contained extensive original composition. This guy did the soundtrack for samurai champloo if anyone is into anime.

Not sure how obscure these guys are, but they are among my favorites at the moment...

Perhaps my absolute fave ATM:

Not so unknown back in the day but mostly forgotten now. Unbelievable voice with a lot of range and nuance.

Maybe not super obscure but still great.

Okay, something a bit rougher from The Butthole Surfers. A band from the early 80's that combined punk and metal in their own bizarre way.

Good one Bill. They symbolized everything my parents didn't want me to listen to. My church used to do that sh!t where they played records backwards to find hidden satanic messages. It was so silly. The butthole surfers were just too easy of a target.

Oh wow, he was in Me First and the Gimme Gimmies. Great core-ska cover band.

A friend of mine in HS was really into them, Black Flag, Sex Pistol's you get the picture. My parents thought he was a bad influence on me, which he was, but what can you do? We did have a lot of fun.

today was a roni size kinda day but then I found this cool nobukazu takemura remix. "this track owns itself"
 
Since we are in the Christmas season, or close to it, how about Sugar Plum Fairy by Tchaikovsky. Maybe the music isn't obscure but the instrument is - played on a glass harp.

The wife was just commenting on some the more curious albums of mine, and the Andrew Jackson Jihad made the cut with the Album title: "People Who Can Eat People are the Luckiest People in the World."

This track 'People II: The Reckoning' is classic. If you can get past the a-tonal singing style, the lyrics past the 3-minute mark are great.

A little out of my normal genre, this is a beautiful song by John Moreland.

guess not obscure if you were coming of age in the nineties in certain circles...
