Video Premiere: Shallow Waves – “Voices in Discord”

We've been spinning Toronto's Shallow Waves since last year. Their engaging post-punk/fuzzy noise is a heady confection, reasonably comparable to a collision between early JAMC and Bloody Knives. Much like BK, compelling propulsion drives the songs, and carries you through the presentation. Gazey influences abound, but always grounded in that insistent, unyielding propulsion. Flourishes of psych, APTBS-inspired guitar chaos abound, and you feel like you've wandered into an epic soundscape […]

Echodrone Video Premiere: “Midnight Frost”

Long-time listeners are surely familiar with Echodrone. A decade-long career of creative output, carving out a space between post-rock and shoegaze, with dreamy flourishes and hooks that leave a mark. On the eve of release for their new long-player Resurgence, Echodrone tapped Kev Cleary for an assist. As the founder and O.G. of Facebook's largest shoegaze group, his longtime fandom helped open access to a cast of willing participants for […]

Video Premiere: Teen Idle – “In the Morning”

We were first introduced to Teen Idle in May of 2020. The song "In the Morning", and the project of  22-year-old woman of color Sara Abdelbarry had all the elements that made us take notice: strong chorus, propulsive groove, classic 90's guitar stylings. The tune itself closes strong: layering guitar atop guitar, supporting and amplifying Abdelbarry's chorus to the finish. It's been a rotation staple ever since. As the early […]

Video/Streaming Premiere: UNIFORMS – “Semana Satán”

First crossing our radar with their "EQUALS" EP at the dawn of 2018, dreamy Spanish noisegazers Uniforms have presented an unique and engaging sound: part bubblegum, part sludge, all charm. Sonically diverse, always finding the best arrangement and instrumentation to serve the song, Uniforms has never been afraid to go their own way. From spacey keyboard glitches to jangle riffs to fuzzy chords, it's their sound. You can count on […]

DreamGaze Worldwide: Call for Submissions

Not exactly a secret: these are difficult days for all of us. Fans, bands, everyone is looking for some uplift right about now. Something to smile about, something to celebrate. We have an idea we've been working on. We've seen multiple platforms trying to do quality things for live performance video streaming. But there's always a stumbling block, one piece of the puzzle missing, to do a true "festival" type […]

Premiere: Slow Glows – “Sigh”

Cincinnati, Ohio. Not the first place you'd think of when you're looking for an incubator of shoegaze and dream pop textures. Individual bands are making credible noises in corners of Ohio, but the sound remains largely underrepresented in Columbus, Dayton, Cincinnati. Slow Glows calls Cincy home, and they're flying the flag high. Their last album, Stargaze Rock 'n' Roll, made a splash on our airwaves, and the single, "Spiderland" remains […]

Video Premiere: Postcards – “Dead End”

One of the standout releases of 2020 has been the second album (and third official release) from Postcards, The Good Soldier. A sublime journey through dream pop and sparkle, this LP's release on January 3rd generated buzz and airplay from worldwide outlets, including Seattle's KEXP, and has been an enduring favorite on our airwaves, with five key tracks graduating to long-term rotation within weeks. While this talented trio from Beirut, […]

Premiere: Guilty Giraffe – “Washed Out”

Fractured and discordant, yet fresh and familiar. That's the sound of Yonkers, New York's Guilty Giraffe. A touch of classic Swirlies adventurism, early DIIV guitar sparkle, and MBV guitar overdrive, all mashed together into a compelling whole. We've been spinning the enchanting ascending guitar signatures of "Filter" since its November release, and it provided compelling evidence of a band charting their own course through grunge and dream pop. That the […]

Premiere: Rei Clone – “Heaven is Eternity”

Regular listeners of DKFM are well aware of Denton dreampop darlings Rei Clone, who've been making a joyful noise since 2015. Their heaviest rotation single, "Wave", broke our airwaves with a quickness, solidifying this band in our permanent rotation, and in our listeners' hearts. It's a heavy, fuzzy, cavernous sound, but buried underneath a wheelbarrowful of sugar. Zach Palmer and company have carved out a special place in the burgeoning […]
