You Can See – Coldwave, Darkwave, Post-Punk, Goth-Rock and Minimal Synth Vol 5

Another mix of post-punk for your listening pleasure. Aside from the obvious Joy Division clones there seems to be quite a bit of innovation in post-punk genres especially under Coldwave of late so much so I could probably start a new blog around it. Probably! Once again there is more than enough to keep you occupied from the return of Cold Cave and music from new post punk bands hailing from from Italy, France, Mexico and many more places around the globe. So get stuck in and enjoy! Continue reading You Can See – Coldwave, Darkwave, Post-Punk, Goth-Rock and Minimal Synth Vol 5

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

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!

Not The One – A Records I Like Playlist (June 2017 #2)

I think I may have solved the problem of embedded playlists (wordpress.com does not support iframe) but with two steps instead of one. A tip on the wordpress.com support boards got me thinking about having a clickable image which brings up a pop-up player. So there you have it and this is a good post as any to try it out so without further ado here is a mix featuring of tracks previously mentioned or soon to be mentioned on this site. It covers a mix of indiepop, post-punk, shoegaze, garage and jangle pop. Enjoy! Alternatively head over to our … Continue reading Not The One – A Records I Like Playlist (June 2017 #2)
