I have known dakota blue for some time, especially through amazing cassette label Community Radio Tapes. I love the lo-fi chill vibe this song brings. I am so happy to see how dakota blue’s sound has developed over the years. This new single is promising a great album. Cannot wait to hear it in full. Please go and check whole discography of this L.A. artist.

I always enjoy listening to music that has few plays, bands that have few fans. The sense of freshnes of new discovery was driving power for my never ending search for new music. The new single In Between from Los Angeles duo Junaco is that specific case. Even though the song was apparently produced by some more known person (Omar Yakar?), I am feeling a lot of unheard freshness in the song. The female vocals are getting deep under my skin. A great indie rock.

I love birds in song. Somehow that sounds are making songs a hundred times better for me. Rhyne’s Finding is full of many beautiful melodies. I just want to go out to nature and enjoy birds, butterflies, meadows. I feel all that in this song. Can you hear it too?

This time I am bringing you something from Australia. A cheerful, jangle indie pop from Melbourne will get you with catchy vocals and melodies. I love the vibe this song brings. My hips start to move without notice. I love when music does this to me. When the track is over, you just hit the play button once more and once more…

I want to give more space on my blog to non-male artists. Jenny Kern is a great female singer from Canada. The melodies are very simple, vocals very pleasing. Also the lyrics about building bridges is pretty important. We should all try to build bridges between each other and “meet somewhere in the middle”.

Past weeks I realized that there are many bands not using Bandcamp. I have no idea why this is happening. I am very biased about Bandcamp and always prefer to share music that is released there. Therefore, all bands with the music released on Bandcamp have a big plus.

El Rocko has many pluses. Great song. Great vocals. Great guitars. Great vibe. I am totally into this. I am just packing orders for my label Z Tapes and this is a perfect soundtrack. I just wish there were more tracks like this. I hope this artist will make more great songs in the future.

You can follow the artist on Bandcamp elrocko.bandcamp.com

Callum Pitt is not a huge artist. Not yet, but will be. A very promising career for this singer-songwriter is ahead and you will hear about him in future a lot. A good (indie) pop music.

Belaver is a singer, songwriter and musician in New York City.

Every time I listen this song I am getting into it more and more. Not sure what makes me so addictive, but I am digging it very much. My music taste is sometimes mysterious even for me.

I am pretty biased when it comes to Swedish artists. But maybe they are just too good. Miynt is great. This new track Peaches is getting under my skin. I am blasting it in my headphones overloaded in my daily job. A nice retreat. Different world. A Swedish music world.

Another Brasilian gem. I am so excited to discover more artists from this. at least for me, a pretty unknown music scene. A pretty, dreamy melody is very much my thing. I love to close my eyes and just enjoy the music. Feel the summer vibe. I recommend you check out the whole album Wanderlust.

I always find interesting to know the location from where the musicians are coming from. Charlotte, North Carolina. I have been there along time ago. I always wonder whether it has effect on music, whether you can discover the essence of location in the track. Maybe you can, I did not get there yet.

Molly is sweet little track with a simple melody and lyrics. I love that.

Sometimes I enjoy songs for no specific reason without being able to explain why. Wasteful is one of them. Maybe the vocals, maybe lyrics, maybe instruments or just combination of them. Either way I really like this track and recommend you checking out other music by Helenor.

I am always proud of the music made by female (or non-male) artists. Especially proud of talented ones like Tiffany, who is sole writer, composer, producer and performs on all instruments for each track. This track L.A. Fade is full of energy, fuzzy & catchy guitars. Funny fact about Tiffany is that she is from southern California, but moved to Boston. Do not know many people who did that. 🙂

It has been years, yes years, since I first heard Jacob Faurholt music. I still remember digging it on Bandcamp when I was starting this blog, it was in 2012-13. I am so happy Jacob is still making music that gets me. Folk beauty from Denmark. I recommend you check out all his music.

You can find all his catalog here jacobfaurholt.bandcamp.com

Do you feel sometimes that music is going deep into your soul? You feel all the emotions. You feel everything. Asia’s Church is a very powerful and emotional song. I listened to it many many times and feel totally captured by its simplicity and yet strongness. Let’s try to experience it together with me.

New single from Baseball Gregg. A reason to celebrate. I am always wondering why they are not praised more for their music. I love it very very much. I hope to see them play live set this summer.

More music at baseballgregg.bandcamp.com

This track is a very powerful one. I love American modern folk music and this band is a good reason why I love it. Love the slow pace of the song, distant vocals, and all the guitar nuances. No wonder I have been listening to it over and over. Exciting for the new record Subliming out in (near) future.

I am very proud of this track. Everything that is coming from Slovakia or Czechia and is my cup of coffee, warms my heart. This beautiful melow, acoustic, folkish track is something I would love to have even on my own label. Supporting local music always makes much more sense for me. So happy there is another indie music project from Czechia that I can proudly share.

Pop. Good pop. Catchy pop. Makes you want to dance. Perfect for your summer pool parties.

Quote about the track sums it well:

“The light-hearted, beachy single features a punchy piano that plays throughout the track while feathery vocals float atop its throwback production. Catchy oohs and aaah’s adorn the track giving it an eclectic, disco feel. courtship.’s “Guy Stuff” is a tongue-in-cheek ode to the human nature engrained in men. It’s one of those songs that gets better with every listen.”

Mantra Love is coming out of Houston, TX.

The intro of “Another One” (the guitar part) remembers of one track but I cannot remember which one. I heard it many times and now cannot remember. Maybe you can help? 🙂

Either way I love it. This track belong to ones you end up listening over and over without having a clue why. Maybe the laid back vibe, surfy guitars or the vocals. Who knows… I just love it. Don’t you?

So happy to share this single with you. I have been fan of Pastel Coast‘s music for some time and I happy they are here with a new music. A great music. They grew up. A lot. I am in love with their new guitars, they are remaining me little bit of Beach Fossils or The Drums, but I am 100% into them. If you go through track “Vacation”, you will get to “Home” which is sung in French, it is very catchy & beautiful. I am so proud this music is from Paris, France. Now I can have a favorite band in Europe too.

Do you remember early King Krule? Hugo Cottu is more laid back version of him. At least I think so. More beachy, more mellow, more dreamy. Being taken away on the slow waves of guitars, piano and drums far away. I am imaging myself to be on calm water pushed my little waves from the coast up to open, vast ocean. I love this imagery.

Have you listened to new Spencer Radcliffe’s tracks? Do you love them? You will enjoy this sweet track from Vern Matz too. Modern indie folk. A perfect combination of folkish influences, good songwriting and very nice vocals.

Artist describe the track as:

An acoustic tune to keep you warm in the rain. A meditation on physical deterioration and endings and novels and large holes, wherever they may be. God is dead and the floor is falling so you better grow up quick.

It has been raining whole week and this track just perfectly fits into this mood.

Lo-fi bedroom rock. This is it. This represent perfectly my music taste. Fuzzy, catchy, energetic, lo-fi. Great. Just listen.

I always admire artist singing in English, when it is not their native language. I find this song from Eyeclimber a perfect example how great can be songwriter from Europe, Germany to be exact. The song contains a lot of energy that is slowly developing and blooming. Upbeat, catchy, summerish. Something you should listen in work, especially if you have an office job and just want to escape walls and enjoy the warm weather. I wish I could.

Ugly Ghost captures so much energy in his tracks. Aubrey Plaze has been my favorite track on our May Spotify playlist and I am happy there is another sweet lo-fi indie rock track out there. Little bit different, little bit more experimental, but still very “Ugly Ghost-ish.” Excited to hear more from him in future.

I find it so hard to discover music from Europe I really enjoy, but past weeks there is more and more popping up just to my ears. It feels good. And yes, Britain (UK) is still part of Europe.

Slow, melow lo-fi track from SLEEP RADIO coming out of Bristol is developing more and more after re-listening. If you are fan of Alex G, Hovvdy or Tyler Burkhart or any other lo-fi king, this will get you. Close all social networks, turn the volume up and just enjoy.

Are you fan of 90s rock? Weezer? You will love this track. I have been always huge fan of this era in music and I am very glad Kaanvas is bringing it back. Love the pace of the song, how the verses change, how good the guitars and vocals are. Also a small big plus to name of song, I love book Catch 22.

The lyrics are great too:

Just press the play and enjoy it too.

Artists themselves describe this song as a lush, dreamy reflection on changing as you grow and becoming a different person. It was recorded at a cabin in Show Low, Arizona.

Do you remember classic rock from 70s, 80s? Remember Police? I remember it very well as my father listened to it over and over when I was younger. He still plays it on vinyl from time to time. I feel the vibe of this in Wes Chiller’s track Mo Nothin and it brings me a lot of memories. A good ones. Nostalgia. Old classic rock.

I usually write about new music released in past weeks but this one is little bit older. Discovering of older music can bring the same enjoyment as discover of new music. Who said that blog cannot write about things that were released months ago? We can write about anything we want.

The opening of the track is just killin’ it. Love the pace, love the beats and voice too. A great track.

James aka the deepest sleep is my friend, we met at Z Tapes Fest in Summer 2018. He has been fan of my label for many years and luckily I was able to see him play live at our Fest. His new project is little bit different from drmgrl music, but I still find it interesting. I do not listen to ambient music on daily music, but when I do I try to take a care when listening to it. Ambient music is always atmosphere. Can you feel it?

How many Norwegian artist do you know? Many? Few? None? You should start digging deeper into this country’s music scene because you can find gems. Simen Mitlid’s music is one of it. You would never thought this was coming from Norway. I love how fresh and well produced this song sounds.

“Hailing from the lush woods of Os, Norway, singer-songwriter Simen Mitlid crafts lush, Nordic indie-folk” – note from his bio. I just wish I could join him in these Nordic woods.
