A round up of some of the end of years compilations that may well introduce you to something new. If any more of interest turn up I will add those to this list too.

We Wouldn’t Change A Thing – Dandy Boy Records

Contains one of my favourite singles of the year in the shape of Ryli’s I Think I Need You Around. Also features other acts on the Dandy Boy roster including Chime School and The 1981.

Star Sailors: A ShoeGaze & DreamPop Compilation Vol. 3

A round up of all the shoegaze and dreampop bands you have yet to hear courtesy of Philadelphia based Star Sailors.

Artoffact Records 2024 Sampler

The now regular all things post-punk round up from the Toronto based label.

2024 Sampler – Big Scary Monsters

Big Scary Monsters is an independent label based in Oxford, UK and this round up of the label’s wares features the likes of Martha, Cultdreams, Orchards and many more.

Milton Music Sessions Vol​.​2

I have not heard of the Glasgow based label MAP 75 Records before but there is plenty here (hear?) for you to enjoy. The track from Calum Roberts is well worth a listen.

Dark Ambient of 2024 – Cryo Chamber

The mixes from this Oregon based label are now a yearly rite for my ears and 2024’s mix is no exception.
