I’ve been really stuck on a lot of the small island nations - St Kitts and Nevis? Palau? With food - I prefer to go to a proper restaurant but for harder cases like Abkhazia I ordered some candy online (and debatable whether that’s a country any way)
Anyone else have a similar project?
It’s Album Time by Todd Terje is Norwegian electro jazz and one of my all time favorite albums
Laufey is an Icelandic singer of the traditional jazz pop style, I highly recommend her live albums. One was recorded with the Iceland Symphony Orchestra
Australia has a lot of fun hyperpop influnced acts and influencing acts. Skin by Flume is an all time classic but recently I would recommend I Love my Computer by Ninajirachi
choke enough by Oklou is a French dreamy bedroom pop album that I really enjoy, great for rainy days.
AAA is a great collab album between South Korean indie band HYUKOH and the Taiwanese synth jazz group Sunset Rollercoaster
Music Can Hear us by the German DJ Koze is a meandering exploration of sound that’s bound to have something for everyone eventually
KISS OF DEATH is a heavy hyperpop/hip-hop type deal from the Russian duo IC3PEAK, not dissimilar to the somewhat famous south African duo Die Antwoord.
And Philharmony is a wonderful synth pop album from the influential Japanese artist Haruomi Hosono that brings hardcore 80s vibes.
Those are just off the top of my head (and thus heavily skew towards recentish releases) let me know if anything piques your interest as I can find many more album recommendations.
