hmm try GOLF & MIKE!!
they thai/japanese and there music great !!

peace <33

Lydia - Thai R&B singer, search her on youtube by typing "Lydia+Thai"

if you like rap listen to

Thaitanium - their lyrics eh but their songs are pretti catchy. Just Holla and I Know You Love Me and Doown are good songs

Clash
Golf Mike
G-Junior
Potato
Ice
Lydia
Bird
Film

that's all I can think of for now, just some of my favorites. [=

TaTa YOUNG!!




NOT. DO NOT LISTEN TO HER. She sucks.

One of my favorite songs from Thaitanium is "Ta Leung" feat. Nara.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GSUCWQKxoo8

Lydia is good too. PM me if you want samples (a song or two. just to experiment).

I like Potato as well. PM me if you want samples.

All time favorite Thai singer

Sirasak Ittipolpanish

He sang for the OST of Roy Leh Sanae Rai and Leud Kattiya. OMG, his voice is so awesome, I could just melt.

But then again, he's kind of old compared to these newer people, like Golf-Mike.

Sek Loso
Lydia
Nat Myria
Peacemaker
Dreams II (girl project group with Lydia, Faye and Me(?))
Punch

that's all I can think of for the moment XD

but go to www.ethaimusic.com for more =)

wow. so many thai music lovers here!
yah!!!!

Bank has one of the most talented voice.
i promise. im sure no one has been dissapointed before.

but then again, there's Pup Potato too.
both really vocally talented.

It's true! I LOVE his voice and Clash's songs. Clash and Potato are my top two in Thai music. After that probably Bodyslam and Endorphine. People have already given a lot of recs but I definitely agree with those ones.

for rock i would say clash, potato, ritallin and (dunno if they count as rock though, ok let's say pop-rock) black vanilla, gear knight
pop: nana, m auttapon, etc, laolom, me, ... and the newer groups, dunno if they'r good or not cuz i haven't heard much of them yet but they'r k-otic, prince, maxx...oh and hotwave guys, if they count as music^^.

YEAHHHH
Body slam
Peace maker
and Tor Saksit => I dun know how to spell his last name..

^^

Golf-Mike! Golf-Mike! Golf-Mike! Golf-Mike!

and then there's:

Ice Saranyu
Aof Pongsak
Clash
Bodyslam
Thaitanium
Potato
AB Normal
Silly Fools
Maxx
Hotwave DJs
Knes

O_o I'm naming all guys. ROFL...xD...

One female singer I HIGHLY recommend is Kat English.

well..
i don't know lots about thai music..

just recomend GOLF MIKE!!!~~ <3 <3

I recomend ......

* My fav rock band

"Bodyslam" They are great !!

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BMh2FEf0GvA >> Ya Pit (poison)

"Potato" The lead singer's name is PUP , I love his voice so much

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yXENH3AiHKQ...feature=related >> Cheewit tee kard ter (ost. goong "i'm a fool --Thai version)

* My fav Pop singer

" Peck" He has many talent. Nice voice
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oBlmqiv6CDg...feature=related >> In Love&Card bai nueng

and Sure!!!!!!!
My best singer Golf-Mike
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mJgLqjdiiTo >> Fight for u (I think the most of you seen it already 55)

i was introduced to thai music by a good friend of mine.

-- golfmike.
-- chin.
-- bodyslam.
-- endorphine.
-- retrospect.
-- clash.
-- potato.
-- ice.
-- girly berry.
-- buddha bless.
-- thaitanium.
-- zaza.

I think Buddha Bless are quite interesting relatively speaking. Thai music does lack originality. Some of the pop and pop rock is passable though. As yet there hasn't been any soul (at all), pop RnB or hip-hop that isn't laughably derivative. I'd rather listen to Loso than most of the new artists who come and go.

One thing, surely 'Clash' is a lawsuit waiting to happen, but I suppose the reach of the band is so limited as to not bother anybody?

I also heard there's a Thai artist called 'Prince'. Um... is he living under a rock? There is and always will be only one Prince. How did they let him call himself that??? Again though, not well-known enough to bother anybody?

The new Prince is a group of ¿4? boys (cant remember lol) and the mv I saw of them it was romantic, but just boring for me =u=

Oh, nobody said, if u wanna listen thai country music in a funny way u must try Pong lang sa on

And everyboy said already all those I recommend.
Rite now the most famous song is Jung wa hua jai from Bie Sukrit, I listen to it in almost every shop! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DRnpJbRsWJk

Yep!They’re good esp mean vocal.
Da has amazing voice she sing very powerful and I luv her personality.

One of my favorite song Dai yim mai
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aFny0hdppQs

sweet mullet and lydia and K-OTIC are pretty worthwhile

^ i respect your opinion,
but it seems so negative.
im just stating that, as you can state your own.
but.... he can call himself Prince as long
as he is not in the same music industry,
USA and Thai.
and Clash is really good,
some American music sound the same too.



^^ i love that song.
Bie is really hot.
they really build his image well.
so poppy that song is.



^ that song is good.
but the beginning does sound like Carrie Underwood's song.
but i still think that Da is a great singer.
sooo powerful!!!

i havent been uodated with any new songs.
but im still hooked on Clash's- Gern Gum Gwaa Rak.

where's my POTATO boys at???
a new album along the way??? yah???
let me know.

take care.

to fauxie81: wow, u really sound negative...thai music does lack originality? ok that's your opinion, but i don't think so at all (maybe i'm biased cuz i love thai music555) there are many talented singers/band in thailand, and i love how most songs have really good meaning, what american music often is missing...
and to itrayya: i'v got no idea what potato is doing now, but the last time i heard bout them, they made this one ost for a thai drama:

anyone here listens to sweet mullet?

i'm so addicted to lydia and her voice~
some people i know hate her voice though
my friend's mom said she sounds like a cat stuck in the toilet

go to, ethaimusic.com, if you find the "Artists" tab, then click on that, then on the left, should be lots of Thai artists names that you can pick and look at. But it takes you to their lyrics tho. (^__^)

but i'm guessing you already got a lot of help anyways tho.


http://ethaimusic.com/archives/index.php

there's the link, look on the left side.

I think Thai music does lack originality, yes. Don't get me wrong, I love Thailand and I really like some of the music here, but just as in other areas of culture and the arts Thailand is currently struggling to find its own sound in music. I've always dug the old stuff from maybe 40 or 50 years ago and some of the uptempo country music as it is unmistakably Thai. I can never remember the names of the singers (usually female) but some of the old songs are hauntingly beautiful. Now, I don't know the average age on this thread (I'm 26) but you would probably laugh at the stuff I'm talking about, but as a foreigner with a keen taste in jazz, soul and funk music there's no way I can keep a straight face when it comes to an 'artist' like Chin. The older stuff has a quality that can speak to your soul. Some of the new artists haven't an ounce of soul in their whole bodies (Chin, Lydia included). Now, I know in the US and UK this often rings true also when it comes to the top 10 charts, but you never have to go far to find a Van Hunt, Common, D'Angelo or Cody Chesnutt. Thailand hasn't one artist that's even close to any of these aforementioned. I just feel like Thai music has lost its identity as it struggles to copy wholesale the US and UK music scene and unfortunately ends up producing a far inferior version of it. I think Thai music is at its best when it's not trying so hard.

Consider an Asian artist from another country, say the Japanese singer Utada Hikaru. Now here's a j-'pop' artist whose Japanese stuff is unmistakably Japanese. It's not all just pop either by a long shot. She's hard to categorise, yet she's very popular while still managing to be really very eclectic and full of music depth. Still Japanese music, no doubt, but mixes in so many other reference points, achieves popularity, but maintains her own musical quirks. That I find impressive. Unfortunately I just don't see to many Thai artists who have that well-rounded balance of cultural identity, artistic integrity and forceful personality. There's not enough charisma and far too few interesting musical ideas. If much of US and UK pop, pop-rock and mainstream RnB is all just 'by numbers' at the moment (and for a good 10 years now) then Thailand as I see it is just producing an even more bland knock-off of that. I want to hear more of the Thai in Thai music or why would there ever be any point in listening to the soulless croonings of Chin when there's D'Angelo, Van Hunt, Cody Chesnutt, Bilal, Rahsaan Patterson, Anthony Hamilton etc. etc. let alone all the 'greats' of the genre from the past 40 years? More Thailand in Thai music, please. There's so much culture, so much that is beautiful and interesting, that it's really just selling yourself short to copy another 'sound' and not do it particularly well.

Sorry for the epic post.

ENDORPHINEEEEEE!!!!
