Blow City – A Records I Like Playlist (November #1)

Tom

Aside from some of the tracks I have written about recently there is some excellent music here – why would I include anything but! If you only flirt with this list make sure you check out the tracks from Sound and Fury, Matriakatet, Glass Arcades, Savak, Soda Fountain Rag and the beautiful Bloodshade by Flower Crown. If you have missed any previous playlists you can find them here. Continue reading Blow City – A Records I Like Playlist (November #1)

Briya – Lado A/Lado B

Tom

No Halloween nonsense from me today. Instead here are the first two releases (or both sides of just one?) from Argentinian band Britya. Regardless whether it’s just the one release or two all the tracks here encompass many of the ingredients that make up indiepop with twee, dream pop, noise pop and fuzzy guitar pop alongside healthy does of punk and riot grrrl. It’s on the latter, particularly Tiempo, that they shine to these ears and it’s further evidenced on the shouty Todo Me Enamora. It’s all good fun and Briya provide one of the best debut releases I have … Continue reading Briya – Lado A/Lado B

Daze In The Sun – A Records I Like Playlist (October #3)

Tom

A third and final playlist for October which should see you through the week and into November. There is so much good stuff out there now I could not possibly write about them all so these playlists are great as they encapsulate what I found on bandcamp. Hopefully there will be something you like too. Enjoy! Continue reading Daze In The Sun – A Records I Like Playlist (October #3)

Like You Less – A Records I Like Playlist (September 2017 #1)

Tom

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!

Sometimes – A Records I Like Playlist (July 2017 #3)

Tom

A playlist covering the latest in indiepop, shoegaze, dreampop, riot grrl, garage and more. Plenty to listen out for here. The latest demo by Jetstream Pony is sublime and I purchased everything by Hiki based on hearing Closer for the first time. Honeyrude are new to me as well and their track The Color Blue has been a regular play this month alongside Alvvays and The Autumn Sighs. Enjoy!

Something For The Weekend? Three Compilations.

Tom

This week’s pack of three features three compilations that should keep you busy for this weekend and the next few come to think of it! Ghost Babes Compilation Vol​.​3 London based cassette label Ghost Babe Records are now onto their third compilation featuring just American bands whether they play garage, slacker rock or punk. Not heard of most of these except for the excellent Wedding Camp but already I am going to dig into the back catalogues of Lost Boy? (try searching that name on Bandcamp!) and Thick. It seems that when the cassettes are sold out the digital version … Continue reading Something For The Weekend? Three Compilations.

We. the Pigs – EP2

Tom

Fusing indiepop and shoegaze together Malmo’s We. the Pigs make a lovely tuneful racket. This is their second EP and picks up right where the first left off. Noisy but blissful and shimmering guitars bounce off the vocals causing the listener to sway with gay abandon. And if Too Young is not floating around your top 10 tracks of 2017 come December then you must be listening you the wrong thing. Or I am! Available on 7″ vinyl or digital formats from Discos De Kirlian. Facebook Soundcloud Continue reading We. the Pigs – EP2
