Richard Finger is an anonymous bass-music duo that appeared on SoundCloud in early 2024 with almost no catalogue, no faces and a stream of deliberately nonsensical track titles, and then refused to explain any of it. The joke is the marketing; the music is not a joke - it is gritty, riddim-leaning dubstep that stands up on a big rig, which is how a project with a handful of songs ended up opening Tape B's Red Rocks headline show in October 2025 and booking a first headline club tour that runs through late 2026. Their identities are still unconfirmed and the speculation is a running feature of the scene rather than a problem to be solved. Note for anyone matching this against the schedule: their PNW dates are bass shows, not house nights - the dataset files them under house/tech-house, which is wrong.
Popularity
We couldn't confidently match Richard Finger to an artist in MusicBrainz, so we won't put a number on them — a score taken from the wrong artist is worse than none.
How this is measured
An absolute, national (US) measure — not a ranking against the other artists on this site. We take the strongest of three open signals: ListenBrainz listens, English Wikipedia pageviews, and the number of Wikipedia language editions that have an article. The strongest one wins, so a signal we couldn't read never drags the result down. Bucket 1 means measured and small. Unrated never means small — it means we don't have the numbers.

What listeners say SAMPLE DATA
Not enough genuine opinion was reachable to score this act. The coverage that exists is about the gimmick rather than the sets: Relentless Beats describes a project that has 'boggled some dubstep fans minds' and set off endless online detective work, and frames the humour as welcome comedic relief in a scene that takes itself seriously. That is a real reaction, but it is one outlet's read on the branding, not a body of show-goer verdicts, and the act is new enough that no aggregated review presence exists yet.
