Austrian music

The last time people often ask me about Austrian music and I started to ask my friends what comes to their mind.

First of all there is of course the older musicians, like:
These musicians you can find under Austropop.  
"Austropop is a musical movement, which started in Austria in the middle of the 1970s. However, Austropop is not much of a specific style, it is more a trademark of origin, because musicians of various styles, such as rock, Neue Deutsche Welle, New Folk and more recently perhaps Pop, are counted as Austropop artists, while Schlager is not." Wikipedia

More up to date but also Austropop is for example:
Andreas Gabalier

But of course we have better music in Austria and all different genres.
Especially Julian le Play, Klangkarusell and parov stelar I like at the moment. Left boy I have seen live once, Parov stelar band three times I think and as you can see parov stelar will come to Riga soon. So jmaybe I will see them again.
Listen to it and you will see a lot of different kinds of music. :)
