    The video topic is interesting, but this type of editing is horrendous. Also the attempts to be edgy aren't interesting at all, just embarrassing

    I’ve been called weird by my friends before for arguing that this is actually good, valuable music. In my eyes, it’s no freak show, it is the antithesis of creativity not being held back, and even as a more “traditional” artist, Daniel Johnston is my biggest inspiration

    There's this guy from Canada, Chik White. He might go into this category and has just performed in Vilnius, Lithuania where I live. His music is really cool. (A great video, too)

    How do u make a video about Outsider Music and not mention Chris Chan and the Hedgehog Boys’ song “So Need a Cute Girl,” who ironically made the greatest song interpretation ever with “So Need a Cute Girl.”🙏😭

    as someone who identifies as borderline outsider (while having inspirations refusing to make normal music) I think Bandcamp accounts and the classic only get popular when you're dead style is the only true outsider music we'll get

    HEAT mah boi 🔥🙌 Editing skills are off the charts, you've created your whole own lane visually, there's nothing for me to compare it to, it's so good, brainrot-adjacent music edutainment or summat bc we do love to put things in boxes, thanks for another banger! the more you know 🙂

    The outsider musician canon sort of irritates me. Every city has like a dozen of guys just like this but most folks wont interact with their stuff cus their isnt merch.

    Another electronic artist I would describe as an outsider artist is Mr. Oizo.

    He is often unfairly reduced to "Flat Beat," which is one of his worst tracks.
    When he started his career in the 90s he wasn't into dance music at all.

    Many of his tracks are both danceable and weird as fvck.

    His 2005 album “Moustache (Half a Scissor)” sounds like someone threw every sample in the world into a box and then shook it up, odd time signatures, strange computer voices.
    In "Patrick122" he sampled an old disco-funk song and added random beeps.
    Nowadays, he's focusing more on his movies as a director—which, by the way, are just as weird as his songs.

    I like a lot Daniel Johnston …. however, he because famous thanks to Sonic Youth …. yes Kurt wore his t-shirt but it was Thurston Moore to give him visibility.
