He has since released over 30 albums and many singles. * '''Moshe Yess''' (1945-2011) β known for his song "My Zaidy" which depicts the legacy of a Jewish grandfather and the gradual impact of cultural assimilation. The song ends with a call for the next generation to take responsibility for the transmission of Judaism. His music is also featured on a children's audio series, ''The Marvelous Midos Machine'', a work produced with the singer Abie Rotenberg. * '''Yosi and Avi Piamenta''' β based in Israel, beginning in the 1980s, the two brothers utilised the style of Electric Rock to express Chassidic music.

Their song ''Ya'alili'', depicting Ashkenazi and Sephardic customs, has over 7.5 million plays on YouTube. * '''Matisyahu''' (born Matthew Miller) developed the style of "Chassidic reggae" soon after he began studying in a Chabad yeshiva in Crown Heights. His songs from his early career, while he was a member of the Chabad community, included a mix of wordless musical elements including beatboxing and the singing style found in niggunim.
