Obscure PA Streaming Thread

Ain Soph are a Jazz Rock/Fusion band from Japan. Not really familiar with them but they have been on my 'to check out' list. This song is called "Variations On A Theme By Brian" from thier 1980 debut album called A Story Of Mysterious Forest:

Leah Waybright is an American artist listed here under Prog Folk. She released one album in 1999 called Beauty Gone Wild. I don't know if the rest of the album sounds like this song or not, but this is "Bird-Of-Paradise":

What did you think about their latest (the 2010 one)?   I never heard the first one and didn't know they had a new one...guess I have to add that one too.  Are they still a trio?

I don't know what happened in studio, I only listened to the album on the streaming player they have on their myspace (upper right corner of the page). To be honest I didn't like it enough to pursue futher. But looking at live videos it seems like they're a trio indeed, at least on stage:



I think all the tracks from the debut can be found on YouTube. They were a quintet back then, btw. This one may be my favourite:



^ sounds a lot like early Trans Am.

For proggers, Koenjihyakkei are not obscure. For the other music listeners yes! But it's good to promote the zeuhl fire.

Wow, I really need to work on quoting people.

Simon Steensland is a Swedish multi-instrumentalist listed here under RIO/Avant-Prog. He's on a long list of artists I want to check out. Here's a song from his 2009 album Fat Again called "The Queen Of Sweden":

You is a Progressive Electronic group from Germany. The following song comes from their first album called Electric Day from 1979. I've only heard the two streaming songs here of which I think this is the best, "Magooba":

Auto!Automatic!! are a Math Rock trio from the USA. They have only released one album so far, Another Round Won't Get Us Down from 2006. They have three streaming songs on PA; I like this one the best it's called "That's Some Sick Mouth And Knee Coordination":
