maybe not of interest to many people here but more recently manchester has seemed like a bit of a hub for vaporwave (or the scene that followed it). bunch of disaffected young kids making dead eyed dystopian ambient city music e.g. Hong Kong Express/Dream Catalogue, Sangam
some of the more interesting music to come out the UK the last few years in my view
