Bandcamp Friday, and all chaos breaks out. 300 pitches and promo emails sorted through, 100-plus tracks sorted and rotation weighted, and we're ready to go. It's a lot, so let's break it down. Headliners this weekend include Slowdive, whose new LP unlocked today, and seems to be all the entirely online set can talk about. And there's nowt wrong with that. But there's so much more to be celebrated! New […]
73 new tracks, sorted and rotation weighted, all packed into a weekend's treasure chest of sonic sparkle. Headliners include MASS OF THE FERMENTING DREGS and Pencey Sloe (pictured above), both of whom have had audiences excited for new album release: it is here, it is now. But we're also celebrating the new album from GRAZER, Why Bonnie, Sinking, and Winter Of Our Faith, plus new EPs from Huan Huan 緩緩 […]
Travel, mild COVID and general decay cannot keep down this olive-oiled machine. We're jazzed to be giving listeners a sneak peek of the forthcoming Extra Cosmic LP from Panda Riot (pictured above), dropping 10 June.

Our voters stand up for their favorites, and shout them out. Perhaps not quite literally, but users of the DKFM app vote for their favorite tracks consistently, helping us shape our playlists and rotation weightings. And, often as we are able, we reflect the love back on our listeners, compiling the most-loved tunes of the time. These shoegaze and dream pop charts, closed on September 15, give a credible idea […]
What we lack in sheer quantity, we make up for in superior quality this weekend. The vast majority of tracks added to weekend rotation this weekend are also graduated to "hot rotation", as there's nothing less than excellence on offer this weekend. Our headliners include Reveries, who've just broken the shoegaze internet by signing to Cardigan Records, and releasing their haziest single to date in "Lost Words". They've been teasing […]
As we flip the calendar page on another month, we're packed with the new releases. From Paris, Pencey Sloe (pictured above) bring amazing tunes with post-rock flourishes. Find of the week.

The Cherry Wave dropped their new Close EP today, and Oakland's heavy Solip just yesterday dropped the Without EP . Throw the calendar out, nobody knows […]
