Dolphin: Eclectic 90s Alternative Hip Hop with elements of Breakbeat, Trip-Hop and Heavy Alternative. Dolphin utilized samples from 90s Alternative Rock records rather than common for Hip-Hop at the time Soul and Funk music. So if you want your Hip-Hop with a bit of Morphine, Sonic Youth and Swervedriver, you know who to listen to.

youtu.be/E42bUU3nkmI
youtu.be/mwM0cSlYJAE

Mihey: A talented Neo-Soul/Funk singer who died way too young but who's music sounds oddly ahead of for its time. I could imagine Anderson Paak, Bruno Mars or Gambino doing these tracks and having the Pop crowd eat them up. Technically he is from Ukraine but sings in Russian.
youtu.be/AccbNbqN2RQ

Tambourine: If there is a Russian Folk Rock band you need to check out, it is these guys. Phenomenal melodies, great energy and probably the best usage of Flute in Rock since Jethro Tull. They would also make really cool Pop Rock in the late 80s
youtu.be/i3muyPiZz18
youtu.be/xaeHh02sYPY

Ariel: Soviet VIA with a human face and SOVL. This is one of the best Psych Pop songs to come after the 60s.
