This albums chart is specific: rated only by number of total spins from an album on our air. It's an imperfect methodology, punishing those releases in the latter half of the year, but... it's also the easiest to prove, with a spin count to back it up. So, it's raw data that can be trusted, even if it does favor early-year releases. The only exception to the accuracy of this […]
Could legitimately call it "old tracks weekend", as we're additionally featuring some underheard early 90s classics from Malchicks (NZ) and Wash (Perth, AU)... but that might lessen the impact of the new tracks in New Tracks Weekend worthy of your appreciation. Headliners include Grivo (pictured above), Cloakroom and Lavender Blush, all three of which finally unlocked their long-awaited long-players, and there's much to recommend from all three. But we're also […]
More new than usual. Took multiple working days to compile this cornucopia of sound. Would tell you there's at least 33% more new tracks added just this weekend than usual, even rivaling a Bandcamp Friday-style release roster. Didn't see it coming, not gonna complain. We're celebrating the grand return of Softsurf (pictured above), with their first release in ages. Worth the wait? We'd contend it is. We celebrate the new […]

Chapter Four of this month's DreamGaze Worldwide presentation is wall-to-wall gold, with fresh performances from Tallies, Grivo, El Lago, Soft Wounds, plus rarely-seen footage from Plastic Girl In Closet, and Panda Riot. I'd pay six month's salary to see that show. But then again, I'm me. […]
When you are so deluged with quality new music, you can spend literally all day, and still not feel you've done it justice. At some point, you've got to pull the pin and call it stellar. Of course it's release day for The Daysleepers and Creation, their first new album in a decade. Was it worth the extended wait? We're not the only ones raving, but we'll let you be […]
NEW TRACKS WEEKEND. We're ready. We're premiering the first two singles from Wray's spectacular Hypatia LP, due in January. We'll be pushing them for two months, so get used to the awesome. We're also catching up with The Dagger Complex. New to us, and terribly embarrassed to have missed this. Making up for it now. Plus new music from South Carolina's exquisitely textured Lightness, worth your attention. New earworms from […]
