Denmark

Denmark's music history has many well-known crimes against music world, such as the eurodance bands Aqua and Daze. I'll not include any of that stuff here. Denmark has got quite a lot of excellent indie bands that sound very international. Usually you can't really hear the accent and that's probably why so many of them have received some recognition even in the English speaking countries. I was a bit surprised to see how many excellent jazz artists come from Denmark. Approximately one third of the playlist (the last part) is jazz. I did not include Faroe Islands or Greenland on this list leaving the door open for making their own respective lists later on. The whole playlist has over a hundred bands or artists and the playlist is over seven hours long. Enjoy: Denmark.

Northern Ireland

Northern Ireland is not exactly known for its bands. There are a few names that most people have heard of, but there haven't been that many bands or artists that have had international fame. Politically unstable 1970's must have influenced the amount of first wave punk bands coming from Belfast. I selected this area for my next blog post, because I thought that was not going to be yet another huge list. Finding good bands from Northern Ireland proofed to be even more difficult than I anticipated. I must have left out some great underground names from this list, but it's not easy to find out about bands from this area for some reason. I'm still quite happy with this compact three and a half hour playlist of nearly 60 artists. Here's the playlist: Northern Ireland
