View Full Version : Who did you discover FIRST?
Calling all hipster stans!
Which artist(s)/band(s) did you find out about before anybody else? How did you discover them? Any up and coming artists you've seen or heard lately that you think have the potential for a huge following in the future?

Rae Scemmurd
Seen a post on a hip hop forum when they first released no flex zone like last summer. Then they blew up
sam smith (ish?)
used to listen to him quite a bit before he blew up massively and saw him live before the brits and snl

Absolutely no-one because it's literally impossible unless you are a receptionist at a local studio... although I guess going by that I could potentially say Royal Blood not that it makes me proud

Loved Christina Perri when Jar of Hearts was a tiny new record, had a chance to meet her but couldn't make it :(. Now she's massive!
Hozier was like my fav band last year, take me to church was my anthem while I was in hospital before Christmas 2013, now that's a super popular song and it's odd..
Think that's it thoughb

big ones for me have been passion pit, fka twigs, sky ferreira and the xx. none have been SUPER big though.
my picks for 2014 were a bit of a flop though.
Puff Daddy & Faith Evans Feat. 112 - I'll Be Missing You
was the first song I can remember to be honest.

Yeah Christina Perri!
hmm can't really think. Foy Vance has gained in popularity recently since touring with ed but I have been going to his gigs since 2006.
Quite a lot of the time I will listen to songs before they blow up in the chart. The vamps I listened to on youtube before they got big.
Been listening to James Bay and Years & Years the last couple of months and I think they will do really well in 2015.

I remember when I first stumbled on Twenty One Pilots when they only had maybe 400 likes on their Facebook page.. And they had not made any YouTube music videos yet.. They weren't that good to be honest, but definitely kept listening to them... No regrets either.
I met and spoke to Jake Bugg before he became super famous. Didn't like him tho

Justin Bieber, had followed his youtube channel before he came big
JUNGLE
Saw them at Reading last year and after that heard them increasingly. I reckon they'll be big.
