To all:
This may or may not be a necro, but having just got back from moving.. I don't have much of a choice, other than to make an entirely new topic.
I think everyone here can agree that would be A Bad Idea.

To Taiyo.uk:
TremRadio... I SHOULD listen to it sometime, I really really should.
---
To NiTRoX:
Never heard of it, maybe I'll look up the artists you mentioned. I'm expecting something like Nu-NRG or an offshoot of hard dance, going by names and "trance-like".

To Steely Ann:
Lame -music- nobody else likes. I'm not sure what that link is (I didn't click it), but from your post I gather that to some degree or another it's not music.
At all.
---
To NiTRoX:
Some of it can be pretty lame. Look at some of those terribly slow nuggets of shit that the dutch (and in the past 10 years or so, the diseased garbage can be found elsewhere too) put out and call trance.

To ODDity:
Your supposition that Infected Mushroom aren't exactly obscure would be correct. But as long as the music isn't blazingly mainstream, played on every radio station around the damn world, no problems should exist there. (Although I did in fact intend this to be for extremely hard to find music.)
As far as Moving Shadow and Omni Trio go, I listen to a lot of stuff from the Moving Shadow label, as I said I'm a fan of Calyx and Noisia, and Mayhem too to a much lesser degree. (For those in the know, no, I don't mean those semi-famous Norwegians, I mean a Drum and Bass producer.) For the record, I'm not sure how much stuff those guys put out on Moving Shadow. I've heard Omni Trio in mixes, but have nothing actually from them; maybe I should fix that.

To NiTRoX:
Goatrance is better than the pop-saturated bullshit that is eurotrance.

To _Equilibrium_:
I'll check them out after this post.

To NiTRoX:
If you don't care, vocalize it to your toilet, don't type it here.
To put it simply: we don't care if you care, assgiraffe.

To Rocicante:
Eh, I meant entire bands that are obscure and always have been. It seemed to me before this point that everyone knew at least one band that no one else had ever heard of.
Would it be too weird to thing that somewhere in the northeastern US, there's a girl with your name scrawled on a piece of paper and hung on a wall? 'Cause that's what I'm doing right now. You are the first person I have seen not to know of any "unknown" bands: congratulations.

To Kaleo:
You LOSE! But at the risk of derailing the topic, I'll totally say that Venom is better than Slayer.
---
To SoulAsasiN:
I have no comment on this list comprised of artists that have seen significant radio play, with the exception of two bands that I have never heard of.
---
To Kaleo:
I'll check them out after this post.
---
To Lava Croft:
I'll check those out along with the first one you mentioned after I'm finished with this post.
---
To Kaleo:
Only if you aren't from Finland.
For most of us, that's a yes.
---
To Lava Croft:
Nasty diarrhea, eh? What did you eat?
---
To Rabbitt:
I've never done any candy-flipping myself but Shpongle is always fun.

To all:
Dug into my music pile and came up with a hidden gem in the form of a band called Johnny Hollow. Wonderful stuff, sort of calming and orchestra oriented, lots of layered vocals. Personal suggestion: listen to Halfway to God.
Also an Australian band, long since split up, who only released one album that I could find. They made two videos, both available on Youtube. The band is called Insurge, definitely worth a listen.
Going to go and check out whatever you people dug up now, maybe a couple of the bands and/or artists you listen to will have a new fan.
