Recommending pic related.

Also, looking for music with ominous banjos and/or mandolins. An example of what I mean:

Recommending Buke and Gase - General Dome. I'm a little late to the party on this album but have been enjoying it a lot in the last couple days.

Yasuaki Shimizu - Music For Commercials
It's from 1987, but gave me very strong OPN ractions.
>>
deep fuzzy melodic synth music
>>

Oh.
I guess it sounds like throwing a party for yourself, by yourself. Just from what I remember on my first listen. I was really tired though.

In that case, General Dome sounds like it's held together with duct tape. Which, due to their use of home made instruments, it actually is.

i said progressive electronics from the 70s and 80s. if you've got contemporary recs i haven't heard before, please share. i've listened to so much prog electronics from that time period already.

dark lyrics with doom riffs and heavy drums but not screaming or growling vocals, clean vocals and maybe some egzotic instruments
>>
Doing delicate organic synthesis of a super dangerous/poisonous/reactive compound in a chemistry lab
>>
Something that starts out real slow & quiet with few instruments playing, then progressively gets louder, faster, and adds more instruments into the mix.
>>
Sounds like funky big band music with catchy vocals
