A new week and a new playlist. Some great new tracks for you including one from the new project of Ville Hopponen (ex Cats on Fire, Le Futur Pompiste etc.) alongside tracks from the likes of Airiel, The Luxembourg Signal, Just Blankets, The Weed Hounds. Not forgetting the return of Flying Num Stalwarts Sneaky Feelings of course! Enjoy…. Continue reading Sundivers – A Records I Like Playlist (October 2017 #2)

More tuneful indiepop for you today in the shape of Fuerzas Absurdas (Absurd Forces in English) from Puzzles y Dragones. It’s taken from their forthcoming debut album Vuelven Puzzles y Dragones and is their first release since 2013’s Somos Puzzles y Dragones. As for the track it’s catchy and bouncy in all the right places despite the sombre lyrics (I had to translate them!). I will be keeping an ear out for the album which is due out next month on Discos De Kirlian. Facebook Continue reading Puzzles y Dragones – Fuerzas Absurdas
Busan’s Say Sue Me could have eaily made one of the, if not, best tracks of the year for me. Good For Some Reason has been on constant repeat for a couple of weeks now and I don’t see that changing for quite some time. Indiepop at it’s glorious best. Excuse whilst I press play once more…… A vinyl version will appear on the Damnably label in the future but for now get it from the band digitally. Facebook Continue reading Say Sue Me – Good For Some Reason
It’s been a strange month both inside and outside of work so I have not had the time to post as much as I would have liked. So here is the first of two playlists that I will post this weekend covering indiepop, shoegaze, dream pop and alt-rock. Enjoy. Continue reading We’re Doing Fine – A Records I Like Playlist (September #2)
Well we are well into the month so it’s about time for a playlist rounding up the various tracks that have been catching my ear via the usual places. That’s not when I have been listening to the new album, The Punishment of Luxury, from Orchestral Manoeuvres In The Dark which is surprisingly very good. I have also been catching up with 2013’s English Electric which is even better. Back to the playlist which features some excellent tracks from the likes of Jetstream Pony, Tough Age, Glass Arcades, Closure and many more! Continue reading Like You Less – A Records I Like Playlist (September 2017 #1)
Brighton based Jetstream Pony release their debut single Like You Less next week on German label Kleine Untergrund Schallplatten. It’s a vintage sounding indiepop song which reminds me of an early Primitives. C17 or what! It’s available on 7″ and details of how to order it can be found here. In other news the band play their first ever London gig at London’s Victoria on October 6th 2017. It’s a free gig and I know all this as I am promoting it! Details on the events’s Facebook page. Edit: And now a video for the flip side. Facebook Continue reading Jetstream Pony – Like You Less
Well here is the first and most probably last playlist for August. To be honest is a sort of shopping list of all the tracks that I missed whilst I was on me hols. Again the usual mixture of indiepop, shoegaze and alt rock. Enjoy! Continue reading Violet – A Records I Like Playlist (August 2017 #1)
Seafang follow up last years excellent Motorcycle Song single with two more slices of C86 era fuzzy indie pop. Solid Gold harks back to the likes of The Shop Assistants, The Fizzbombs and a lazy era Primitives. Stardust adds some shoegaze to the layers of fuzziness sounding like a transitional My Bloody Valentine. Excellent!. It’s out via Emotional Response on vinyl and CD formats or pick it up digitally from the band. Facebook Continue reading Seafang – Solid Gold
I am not sure if Playmoss is making me lazy or if it’s given me the chance to post more music that grabs me more than normal. I certainly post tracks which impress me even if the rest of that band’s output doesn’t have much of an impact on my ears. That is something I wouldn’t do previously. Anyway I will let you decide. Given that this is the fourth playlist this month July has been a cracking month for music discoveries all round and here is a selection of jangle pop, indiepop, dreampop, shoegaze and alt-rock for your listening … Continue reading Blossom Cherry Bloom Sleep – A Records I Like Playlist (July 2017 #04)
