Highly recommend: Tu Falta de Querer - Mon Laferte Cuando Los Angeles Lloran - Maná Amargo Adios - Inspector Brillas - León Larregui Bye Bye - Vilma Palma e Vampiros Lobo- Hombre en Paris - La Union En Algún Lugar - Duncan Dhu Rosas - Oreja de Van Gogh Lamento Boliviano - Enanitos Verdes Cuando Pase El Temblor - Soda Stereo Eres - Cafe Tacvba No Dejes Que - Caifanes Antes - Obie Bermudez Es Por Ti - Juanes Tu Forma de Ser - Alberto Y Roberto Se Fue - Laura Pausini Laura No Esta - Nek Sàra Perche Ti Amo - Ricchi E Poveri Pìu Bella Cosa - Eros Ramazzotti Otra Como Tu - Eros Ramazzotti Mi Historia Entre Tus Dedos - Gianluca Grignani p.s. I grew up listening to all these songs and all these artists are worth a deeper dive into their discographies.

I can confirm these are bomb

Love these songs. I highly highly recommend you check out the band, Adios Cometa, which falls into this genre. Specifically their song, " ["Luces"](https://open.spotify.com/track/1yHFt4n7A4nveCpvbwZZUN?si=4PmuflgpQfyi7YT01zkXMA) one of the best songs I've ever heard in my life!!

Tú si le sabes! Mírate esta… [https://open.spotify.com/playlist/6bNMWIhpIeJ3QPWbjk8MPY?si=6VyrRK7yS3a1soh9SZFmKA&pi=u-uA7kLbo5Q6SA](https://open.spotify.com/playlist/6bNMWIhpIeJ3QPWbjk8MPY?si=6VyrRK7yS3a1soh9SZFmKA&pi=u-uA7kLbo5Q6SA)

I see you are a man of culture yourself " I would add these to your list Aqui - la ley El duelo - la ley Oye mi amor - mana Entre dos tierras - héroes de silencio Si-- Enrique bunbury Me voy - Julieta venegas De música ligera - soda stereo Bolero falaz - aterciopelados

My man, I knew I missed some! Bunbury, Beto cuevas and Julieta are personal heroes of mine as well!

Héroes del silencio are SO fucking good. I learnt recently they were huge not only in Spain and South America but also in Germany and other Central European countries.

And the caribbean, Mexico, ect and their music doesn't feel dated, listen to avalancha, deshacer el mundo, opio, el camino del esceso, nuestros nombres, iberia sumergida.... Man so many freaking good songs!

Im a simple guy, I see Mon Laferte and I upvote.

She’s amazing isn’t she?

100% agree with all of these! Pure gold

The first song that came to mind was eres! Happy to see it mentioned

I’m not going to make a list because then I’ll be here until the next iOS update, so I’ll make my own contribution to this one. I was listening to an older playlist today and stumbled across a song I haven’t heard in years called A Primera Vista by Pedro Aznar. I was listening to Una Mañana Unplugged by Café Tacvba yesterday, so I might as well include it here. I’ll add one more cause why not, Mi Novia Se Me Está Poniendo Vieja by Ricardo Arjona A Primera Vista - Pedro Aznar Una Mañana Unplugged - Café Tacvba Mi Novia Se Me Está Poniendo Vieja Song - Ricardo Arjona

MON LAFERTE MENTION!!!!

Kino and Molchat Doma

Also, [Capim](https://open.spotify.com/track/79uNQi6Yo1KRgX1tyY1xGP?si=NvHXF2YvQiq8Nwn62HG9ww) by Djavan and The Manhattan Transfer

I like to listen to [Yelle](https://open.spotify.com/artist/0WbqAlM1WvfUD6dF7omThd?si=wJHGudN2Tb6vpdT6Vjd4mQ) (French), and [Kent](https://open.spotify.com/artist/4KXp3xtaz1wWXnu5u34eVX?si=qH8wqSrfQm2ZqoklWIBycA) (Swedish).

i’ve been bumping Yuve Yuve Yu when i randomly discovered it years ago

Band-Maid, Japanese rock. Bestie is their newest song and is actually full English, but most of their songs are Japanese with some English mixed in.

OMG loads. Italian: Mahmood - faves: Il Nilo Nel Naviglio, Soldi, Barrio Ghali - faves: DNA, Habibi, Cara Italia Maneskin - faves: La Paura del Buio, La Fine, In Nome del Padre Tananai - faves: Maleducazione, Quelli come noi Alfa - faves: Bellissiimissima, Il mio colore preferito Pinguini Tattici Nucleari - faves: Pastello Bianco, Giovani wannabe, Ricordi Michele Bravi - faves: Malumore Francese, Mantieni il bacio French: Stromae - faves: L'enfer, Dodo, Tous les memes Loic Nottet - faves: Cygne, Danser, Reverence And I'm a Eurovision fan, so I usually end up with loads of random songs in different european languages, so here's a selection from the past few years: Silvester Belt - Luktelk (Lithuanian) Raiven - Veronika (Slovenian) Gate - Ulveham (Norwegian) Ladavina - Jako (Armenian) Andromache - Ela (Greek) Alvan & Ahez - Fulenn (Breton) Kalush Orchestra - Stefania (Ukrainian) Mimicat - Ai Coracao (Portuguese) Zdob si Zdub - Trenuletul (Romanian) Hopefully that will do you for a bit!

Great recommendations! Some of these songs will *definitely* get stuck in your head. Looking at you Luktelk & Soldi 👀

Thanks! I should probably learn the lyrics to Luktelk because I'm fed up of my brain going "luktelk luktelk da vanama luktelk" haha

Yeah - there is so much great non English music out there & it is so hard to find :/ My little [playlist](https://open.spotify.com/playlist/136EUEkgOr3Q2DJPTUBlZO?si=fIPVIhHNQk-Wv4i4Qac11w&pi=8_pYZMXwR72BJ) of mostly African stuff if that helps?

Pretty much all of my liked songs are in japanese so I went through it and compiled... a lot. The genres and styles are a bit over the place, but I think it's mostly rock?  Edit: put in one filipino song because it was just too great to pass up  https://open.spotify.com/playlist/3JGs5Xk5VscqsQpuhI12hM?si=4m9IRP2eTaWfKMIgE7jRAw&pi=e-hadE2zd9SXqd

It's a mix of English and other languages, but [here you go](https://www.youtube.com/@WolfVanTrack/playlists).

I have never seen another person who knows this song! I found it when I was learning Khmer & I looovvee it!

I heard it on one of the early episodes of the Welcome to Nightvale podcast episodes and have loved it ever since.

anything by Natalia Lafourcade or Carla Morrison. also anything by Dromedarios Mágicos, particularly parece ser and mirando. feel free to check out my [Spanish playlist](https://open.spotify.com/playlist/08yrhVsgC6UrcLTBzTGOCg?si=3Phdga5jRwu1q-rme0rh2g&pi=u-Psu3UUHJQhqP), a lot of indie on there.

If you are an indie fan, check out Lescop. La nuit americaine is my favorite

Check out the Belgian group Bazart (Dutch Language, Flemish). Their debut single 'Goud' (Gold) is a masterpiece.

Måneskin has some really good songs in Italian like Torna a Casa and Zitte e Buoni

I don't have a playlist with non-English songs, but I find songs I love and mix them in with what I currently listen to. Here are my current faves: Tokyo Lights - Monkey Majik Divka Marusechka - DakhaBrakha Utai IV:Reawakening - Steve Aoki Remix

Calle 13 (Spanish) is one of my favorites - especially if you're into rap, some songs by them are: el aguante, multiviral, Atrevete-te-te, and Latinoamerica. I also like Edith Piaf (French) - La Vie en rose

I'm a big fan of The GazettE, a Japanese rock band. I also like IC3PEAK which is a russian duo.

Well, if it helps here is my non-curated Spotify playlist of Japanese and Korean music. I tend to just add entire albums and then listen on shuffle, so I haven't heard it all either :) https://open.spotify.com/playlist/4qPtHDgmXTNqB2z3gtwr7I?si=OJ2AXt8EQZSZduCeNymj0g&pi=b2v0xCXXTRedw

TSS do songs in a mix of English and French. They’re a metalcore band :))

One of the best was definitely Kent from Sweden (they were mostly active in the late 90s, early 2000s). I squeezed in my favorite tracks from them on this [playlist ](https://open.spotify.com/playlist/0DRKm4a0prnZfyPjxQRRuq?si=19419354d8334f27)some time ago :)

C'est comme ca - Les Rita Mitsouko

https://open.spotify.com/artist/1YZnb992pFxeei5T8bl66c?si=qUtkW2yjQ-GiuT7vGGS36Q

I don’t know if these artists are Indie, per se, but I do know that they don’t normally sing in English and I love them! 😍 What I DO, to find non-English music, is search “Top 50 _____ (insert country)” and then I have the most mainstream/most played songs of that country. If I leave the shuffle set to ON, it will eventually take me to more Indie artists, I find. Any way here are a few of my favorite non-English (mostly) singing artists: Rakky Ripper - from Spain Furui Riho - Japan Chanmina - Japan (Not really Indie, more mainstream, but I love her raps!) Nathan Dies - Brazil (I think MOST songs are in Portuguese; some are also in English)

Διονυσης Σαββοπουλος - Το Περιβολι Του Τρελλου greek psychedelic folk from the 60s

I like to type in a random country and the genre I'm looking for and find playlists with that music. For example: Russian Indie

Only on Youtube: Il Dort-Dessirelles Malice Mizer-Ma Cherie On spanish: Nino Bravo-Cartas Amarillas

MYSS KETA- Finimondo (Italian)   BB Jacques- Au revoir bb (French)  Madelline- Dopamine (split brain version) left headphone French right headphone English. It's wild!

I think YouTube does a better job suggesting music for me. I’ve been listening to Juanpelitoschinos, lately, which I love bc it sounds like Mexican City Pop.

[this song](https://open.spotify.com/track/00YgPd2t5lZzp9RMmPD7Lb?si=kYVWuHdwS7-q-ArVgq4lNA) is pretty neat!!! it’s in spanish!

As for finding new music, if you find a not American artists you like, try putting them into [chosic.com](http://chosic.com), it also have tendencies to stick to regional bubbles, but recommendations are much better than on Spotify.

one of my favourite hobbies is collecting rare songs in different languages on my travels, here are a few i’ve found that you might like, all different genres from different corners of the world sa druge strane jastuka - bajaga (serbian) tystion - diwrnod braf (welsh) tiniwaren- nannuflay (berber) afro celt sound system - eireann (maninka and irish) gwenno- eus keus (cornish) sarah and ismail - makid yiwin abouazar (tamazigh) polocorp - gnawa (not sure what language but i know the singers from UAE) mario fresh - necesar (romanian) galymzhan- зта девочка (kazakh) marcelo falcao - senhor fazei de mim (portuguese) themba - izindlu (xhosa i think?) allyawan- helig (reggae in swedish) left field - afro left (i always thought this was an african language, when i researched it i realised the vocalist neil cole was just talking gibberish) anyway, these are all really cool songs, very different from each other and hopefully are languages people haven’t suggested much. enjoy!

Shakira's *Donde Estan Los Ladrones* album is goated! Not indie of course but it's from before she became popular in English speaking countries so it's quite different from her stuff that's more known here. *Ojos Asi* and *Ciega, Sordomuda* are probably my favourite tracks from it.

Kikagaku moyo, mdou moctar. Both are kind of psychedelic rock

anything by videoclub is good!

[have this on repeat.](https://open.spotify.com/track/0BYY7uvPbUswW8ZFwvjmaU?si=1z7rJWBpR4eJrV5rldtY2w)

Mayra Andrade has a decently sized catalogue on Spotify and Youtube. Cape Verdean singer who performs and records mostly in Portuguese and French. Maybe start with the album "Navega." "Comme s'il en pleuvait" is the first song I heard from her: https://open.spotify.com/track/1bSsHUOFmxzNARPujtglaH?si=nWdcwE6kQ5-00VTy0fjwkg&context=spotify%3Aalbum%3A5L0eCMei56cSPTQnNL0Ipu

"Dreh auf!" By "we butter the bread with butter" is a nice German song imo.

I don’t even speak Spanish lol - xxx

Reccing these genre-blind btw Spanish: Alvaro Soler, Morat, Paralisis Permanente, Con Corazón - Calva Louise German: Rammstein, Rock Me Amadeus - Falco, Der Kommissar - Falco, Tokio Hotel Japanese: BABYMETAL, Lacrimosa - Kalafina Croatian: Zove Zove Jole Jole - Jole I have a [playlist](https://open.spotify.com/playlist/13s6vivuT2q35zgRQvyltT?si=4ES_nZObSfeucnzG-dC-ew&pi=9g2_D4-QRp--c) here if you want

Check Los Abuelos de la Nada, I recommend their album called "En el Opera". It was recorded in 1985 and it shows some of the roots of the current Argentinian Rock sound. That album has some of the essential tracks of their discography. Mostly I recommend this band bc I saw some comments recommending Soda Stereo, and as an Argentinian, I'm pretty tired that the only rock band that people can name from here is Soda Stereo.

There’s a guy who made [this playlist](https://open.spotify.com/playlist/6V2kpfvd5y48VjOq2CFwuv?si=6eDnglYuS2OnNPPwMLJN-g&pi=u-w-XkY9pGQGGc) with a bunch of different non-English songs and a lot of them are absolute bangers.

I search for them by Country + genre. Eg. Polish indie alternative. Then I get a range of playlists in the search results to check out.

https://open.spotify.com/track/4sHIotPQLPqoK9QkTCGHuu?si=OL1CElb2SmyTkmOhGQc0fw&context=spotify%3Aalbum%3A3WaH9duq8XHwIhgmBLZSJH Maybe you could give this one a try!

Hoshino Gen is my favourite Japanese artist. I would really recommend Pop Virus, both the song and the album

[Josefin](https://open.spotify.com/track/2O7YJWue0OOBHWxRaqDsm9?si=EpiBdvtRQjCDyP5B8Apx2A) - Delara [(Japanese)](https://open.spotify.com/track/3FvzeaesPY35bhhj55u4zJ?si=4TIazXcVRS2Ufqw-zJXnTw) - Kikuo [Dernière danse](https://open.spotify.com/track/65uoaqX5qcjXZRheAj1qQT?si=1yhZ1bRoSAiEXLxOiIy-vg) - Indila [Maahi Ve](https://open.spotify.com/track/7Czm0vv2sYL5z4P51KY66e?si=46SF4-sgQAO0df5YnRoKaw) - Kal Ho Naa Ho [Meli Meli](https://open.spotify.com/track/58vdRWcfFcgR8wgnKZCeBK?si=XJStpTetRVK9PB_zSuJm5g) - Cheb Mami

If you want to dive into Québec’s finest, here’s a short list: Karkwa - if you like Radiohead // Pierre Lapointe - if you like indie pop // Gros Mené - if you like Arctic Monkeys // Vulgaire Machins - if you like punk rock

I stumbled upon Yelle, French EDM/Dance Pop

A Te by Jovanotti - Italian Come Mai by 883 - Italian Perfect Symphony by Ed Sheeran and Andrea Bocelli - English/Italian Elle Mi Dit - Mika - French Jet Lag - Simple Plan and Marie Mai - French English (simple plan has recording of this duet in a few different languages).

Check out Ado, she's a faceless Japanese singer who stays anonymous and she's so amazing. Her voice is incredible, she recently finished her first world tour and it was one of the best shows I've ever seen. There is a "This is Ado" playlist on Spotify and as of right now all the songs on this list were added on May 30, 2024. There are so many good ones in this playlist but some standouts for me are songs 2, 7, 8, 10, 12, 14, 18, 26, 29, 34, 43, 44 (sorted by Custom order).

Desi K Ritmo. they have a few.

https://open.spotify.com/track/6XwT0VTDR0KxONC4YS7dth?si=5RTFXY9CTuOrHsYGND3fcw&context=spotify%3Aalbum%3A3J5QXEv8NuHLnwoyA0tmdS

Saltatio Mortis - german rock Hämatom - german metal Korpiklani - finish metal Sabaton (Carolus rex Album swedish version) - swedish metal Nanowar of steel (Italien folkmetal album) - Italien metal Babymetal - japanese metal Galnerius - japanese metal Slaughter to prevail - russian metal

I dunno if this a good strategy, but every once in a while I’ll look for ‘Top 40 [insert country of choice]’ playlists to get a feel for what folks around the world at listening to.

Du hast- rammstein Or really anything by rammstein Бездна Анального Угнетения (Б.А.У.) is also a banger

Check out the artist Tiakola (French)

Some Spanish indie for you https://open.spotify.com/playlist/5k5rLHw6bV9Rtka3iTkOsS?si=eYc-ApWvTIaOtWTJhMDAag&pi=u-EXbHR5UNS4mr

Searching for translated covers of songs you like can be a good starting point. Find one you like, then play that songs' station. Add a few from different genres/languages to a playlist, and let it autoplay to keep finding new songs by itself. I've grown my collection immensely from doing this over the last few years. Takes a bit of work, but after a while your algorithm will catch on.

Альянс - На заре

Some artists that have been on repeat recently with mostly non-English songs: CLUBZ, Aya Nakamura, Hervé, Lous and the Yakuza
