"There Is No God But You" - Kathryn Joseph
Lilting, soaring and generally wonderful.
"Negative Space" - American Nudism
Lo-spec grumblewave from Washington (USA state, not Tyne & Wear).
"Never Finds You" - The Washboard Abs
Introspective and beautiful psychpop.
"Anneal Me" - SiGRÚN
Beautiful, minimalist electronic quasi-folk from multi-instumentalist / singer / composer Sigrún.
"Surface to Air" - Firefriend
Apologies for the dead air, have been off earning my keep and doing other things. Back now though, with some awesomedirge Brazilian shoegaze because why not.
"Again" - Numb.er
Noisy, punky, synthy goodness from LA.
"Ojai" - Bolinas
Dreamy, sun-drenched LA synth pop.
"Respect" - Aretha Franklin
You don't get another Aretha Franklin. Rest in peace.
"Roller Disco" - Jonathan Bree
Lazy strings and lamentation of things past. Slightly Pulp-y.
"Fear & Celebration" - Blood Wine Or Honey
Latin-infused dance music from Hong Kong. Obviously.
"Highrise" - H E X
Atmospheric, sinister, off-kilter electro from Geneva.
FUTURE SOUND OF DISCO is positively ravenous for new music. All of it. Got a tip? @fsodisco on the twitters.
Est. 2018. Proudly curated in Acton Town.
Previously
"Skyline" - Captain Süün
Dirgy Bristolian (Bristolite?) psychsurf.
"Short Court Style" - Natalie Prass
Glittering perfect pop that harks back to a simpler time. (March).
"Cigarette Lighter" - Mellah
Timely, angular pop deployment from Souff Lahndan's Mellah.
"Plastic Hamburgers" - Fantastic Negrito
Good old fashioned blues rock, done good. Ticks all the boxes.
"Tell Me" - Mesadorm
This has been out as a single since late last year, but somehow the agorithms missed it until the album rolled round. Sparse, joyous, dramatic, electronica-y (and occasionally very slightly Björk-ïsh-ësque).
"Extinct" - Scuba
A lovely techno, of the old school.
"Wot2Do" - Sock
Reverb-drenched fruity psychadelia-twang. From South Wales. Obviously.
"Permanent" - Daniel Blumberg
A fabulously broken and wrong grunge waltz deployment.
"Love Said (Let's Go)" - 77:78
Really not bad for a song that consists entirely of the chord progression from behind the guitar solo in "Light My Fire".
"Hunan Garden Takeout" - Pan Amsterdam
At last my dual loves of narrative rap and Chinese food meet.
"True Blue" - Islamiq Grrrls & oOoOO
Detuned pianos and dirty twang can't stop this being utterly beautiful.
"One Lung" - Queen Kwong
Sweaty girl punk poet noises.
"1000 Whispers" - Warmduscher
It's basically music for the arrivals lounge in Hell, but I love it.
"Soft Power" - Tropical Fuck Storm
Back from a brief period of soaking up UV, let's kick off with these wonderfully dissonant Melburnians.
