In a first quarter of notable albums, this effort is surely in the top five releases thus far this year. The […]
Near to a month (give or take five days), and thousands of votes later, we're thrilled to present the Top 20 shoegaze and dream pop tracks for March, as voted by our listeners via the all-new DKFM App. As to the chart show itself, we could only cram 15 actual tunes into the hour allotted (and still slopped over), but each and every song in the top 20 got a […]
