bill wurtz- bill wurtz makes me feel feelings that don't exist. Everything he makes is an extension of himself: his writing, his music and the little tangents he sneaks in, his videos, his website. Many of his jazzy ditties have accompanying self-produced videos which enrich his surrealistic vibe, and he makes frequent use of intricate harmonies. It's gotta be tough doing everything by yourself, please collaborate more bill! You can find his entire music catalogue for free on his website, as well as other cool stuff.
ANDREW HUANG - This dude is just on another level. For the amount of stuff he's accomplished, I'd say he's still pretty underrated. He's made a ton of songs and albums using a massive variety of instruments and production tools, he's made a bunch of videos on music education and tech reviews, and he's super involved with his fans. He even spent the better part of 2021 in space.
Louie Zong - I love following animators and musicians, so you know I'm happy when I find an animator-musician. He makes awesome little animations and animatics, sometimes accompanied by his music, and is a storyboard artist for We Bare Bears (big boy job). He also makes niche stuff that makes you go "Awww dude you're killing me with your charm and your knack for provoking feelings of nostalgia AAAAAAACKK" (example)
