Music of a wonderful world

Recommended Russian artists: Popular international singers and singer-songwriters

Former vocal coach specializing in Western musicRyo
With the motto “Learn the basics and enjoy putting them into practice,” I worked as a vocal coach specializing in Western music. As a teen, I questioned the idea that “Western music equals English,” and started listening to songs from around the world. Today, I devour music from over 80 countries and run a personal blog introducing tracks. I often listen to genres like nuevo flamenco, bolero, canzone, and R&B. I’ll keep updating articles daily to find the one perfect song you’re looking for!

A person from the melodic hardcore boom generation who loves music, photography, and eating. I’ve been going to live houses for over 20 years. I’m at the age where summer festivals are starting to feel tough physically. I sometimes try shooting live photos and videos for MVs. I’m not great at English, so I often listen to straightforward Japanese rock that hits directly, but if someone recommends something, I’ll listen to anything—Western or Japanese—broadly and casually. I like cooking while listening to music; it’s a nice way to relieve stress.

Russia is a country that enjoys overwhelming support in classical and metal music.

In Japan, there isn’t much of a culture of listening to foreign music other than English and Korean, so many people may not be familiar with it, but the Russian music scene actually boasts world-class quality.

This time, I’ve picked out some artists and bands that are active in Russia.

I’ve selected songs from a wide range of genres, so please try finding a favorite artist.

Also, the war between Russia and Ukraine is ongoing.

In conclusion

Listening to Russian tracks this time, many of you might have felt a sense of cohesion, right? The Russian music scene tends to have a lot of darker songs overall, and it seems that, compared to other countries, even dark tracks are more likely to become hits.

If you like pieces with a gothic atmosphere or somber melodies, definitely dive deeper into the Russian music scene!
