I'm trying to identify the kind of music I like, and it's not particularly obscure, but I feel like it hasn't been made before and after 90s and early 2000s. It's a range from mellow to energetic. On the mellow side we have trip-hop/lo-fi. Clear enough. Plenty of radios for this. On the energetic side we have complex beats like Prodigy. Seen a couple of radios. But in the middle, feels like there's nothing. I'm looking for bands like Garbage. KT Tunstall is similar. The only way I could describe it, is that it's jazzy/bluesy rock from 90s and early 2000s with cool/elegant sounding beats/bass. Quite a lot of Russian rock was like this too in that period. If anyone can identify what I'm talking about, give any pointers, I would much appreciate.

I think I know the vibe you're talking about. Something like this song maybe? https://youtu.be/u9WgtlgGAgs?si=ynJRVDDS8eHthbj_ https://youtu.be/u9WgtlgGAgs?si=ynJRVDDS8eHthbj_ (The Cardigans - My Favourite Game)

  My god, that fits right in. Yes. Would love to find more pointers towards similar music. I didn't know this song (albeit sounds vaguely familiar), and it's instantly going on the playlist. Edit: Half that album is going on the playlist. I definitely remember hearing erase/rewind, but never knew where it was from. To reciprocate, here's little known, imo one of the most underrated records by KT Tunstall: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xWKj96zhCpw https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xWKj96zhCpw — the more you listen and hear detail, the more it grows on you. Here's a little known Sting record of a famous song, that's my favorite rendition of it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bqG7b5yNbGk https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bqG7b5yNbGk Both of these are on a softer side, but I like heavier-sounding stuff in the same vibe too. (Like Paranoid by Garbage) Most of those tracks in my library are Russian however. :(
