I have a taste that range from Modest Mussorgsky (classical) on one extreme to Triptykon (metal) on the other, and don't mind listening to more mainstream oriented material at times either. Norwegian dream pop band Bel Canto for instance, old blues rocker Robin Trower, the ever so great Steppenwolf can also be mentioned. Nazareth and The Sensational Alex Harvey Band are other favorites of mine, and I've always had a soft spot for Gary Numan. Vangelis and Kitaro are also artists I enjoy, and Isao Tomita merits a mention as well. To some extent also Jan Garbarek. If any of these names rings a non-prog bell somewhere.
I'm already familiar with most of those. Great taste in music! Clap

Welcome, Goodsir!  I hope you stick around so you can share what you've been listening to and enjoying, and pick some stuff up yourself, based on recommendations that seem to come from every direction around here.  Really, if you just hang out here long enough, it's practically impossible not to come across some great new stuff you wouldn't have found otherwise.

Me, I'm especially into the avant garde and noise realms, but also have a soft spot for classic rock and pop (I'm old enough to have been there) and some modern "indie" stuff - in fact, my avatar Ariel Pink is my favorite music guy of all.

Another label that have a nice roster of unconventional artists that might be of interest is Silber Records. Linking to their catalog page with samples and stuff to investigate. I believe most of this stuff is on Spotify for an easy option to check out further.
