"Rules" are simple, with every reply try to include a link to something you think other people might enjoy.

I'll start it off with Mr. Roboto on the floppotron

Not my favorite song done on the floppotron, but probably the most appropriate. The Floppotron is basically a combination of old hardware cobbled together and programmed to create music, like the sounds of a flatbed scanner moving along the track to the namesake floppy drives accessing a floppy.

Given I remember being on youtube before it blew up I'm honestly surprised it wasn't until the quarantine that I finally caught wind of this.

Thank you for that! Definitely something I'd probably never come across on my own and it's something that even my mom would enjoy, and she's fairly picky.

And to keep it going:

Steve1989 is a youtuber with a channel built around eating rations. I have no real interest in rations but I mean, everyone eats so it's not hard to relate to.

What sets him apart is his voice and demeanor. I grew up with Bob Ross, but I don't paint and could never fully appreciate his passion. But while I may not eat rations I do eat food and seeing Steve enjoy (or be disgusted by) and describe the experience is surprisingly soothing.

That video is him eating a 1969 Vietnam Combat Individual C ration and he has plenty more with some food over a century old.

It's one of the most hilarious and simultaneously awesome music videos I've seen in a long time. I've been a fan of the band for quite a while now and with this video they're introducing a new vocalist.

It's probably not something everyone would enjoy, but I just absolutely love everything about this music video.

Not quite my cup of tea, but I definitely enjoyed their style. The video was great and they definitely look like they give their fans a great show.

For some reason my mind wandered to Sublime despite sounding nothing alike. This song was my introduction to the band and it wasn't until today that I actually saw the video, not that you need it to enjoy it.

I think my favorite is Santeria but the song in the link is what opened me up to the idea of checking out their library.

EDIT - that Hypa Hypa really does get stuck in your head tho *shakes fist*

Tesla coils creating music, in this case Africa by Toto.

Stumbled upon this by accident, was going through some floppotron, then some dragonforce and this caught my eye in recommendations.

Also - never realized how hard it is to gain traction in this forum in a "dead" league.

One of the very best Tiny Desks

Tech Nine was one of those artists that I had heard about but never had heard anything from that specifically garnered my attention.

And the thing about tiny desk, it really creates a more personal experience. By the time speedom came on my head was bobbing.

Edit - Almost forgot my own rules =P

Don't worry about that - a video is not required it's just one of the most common medias online - you could link something like a website and it totally applies.

Lastly here's another random recommendation. Don't remember how this got recommended to me, but I heard this song A LOT so I was surprised how accurately they recreated it, even if they're Harvard.
