They want you to embrace
Your own faceless mirror
They want to steal your soul
They’re counting on your fear

They’re standing in your way
They’re saying “I fucking dare you”
They’re inside your home
They’re laughing, saying “I fucking dare you”

Dev Lemons is criminally underrated, she makes the most sonically interesting bedroom pop in the game

⛈️ SADNESS, SORROW & HOPE 🌦️

Bonjour ! Je tenais à vous partager ma playlist publique chargée en émotions. 🫂🕊️♥️😢

J'essaie d'en faire une playlist cohérente mais vous pouvez trier par artiste. 🫶

Elle joue principalement sur le rock, le folk, la pop, parfois des guitares 🎸 qui hurlent leur âme, beaucoup de violons 🎻 et de piano 🎹 accompagnent des beats électro ! ⚡

Des musiques parfois centrées sur le regret, l'amour et d'espoir dans la douleur, malgré quelques musiques au message désespéré. ⛈️

Des musiques calmes comme énergiques, oui oui. ⛈️🌦️🌤️☀️

Partagez 🔄🙏

New song in works! Went more synthy and dark wave beats mode. Feels good. Working title, “brand new”. Album art by me. Used a photo of my coffee grounds one morning when I saw some bubbles on them.

Gig review: Massive Attack at Rod Laver Arena, Melbourne 11th August, timeless iconoclasts and rebels deliver once-in-a-lifetime magic 2026 #music #triphop #review #musicreview #music #MassiveAttack #Melbourne #AlternativeMusic #Mezzanine #BlueLines

🇬🇧 Marc Almond "Only the Moment / She Took My Heart in Istanbul" – 1988

Two songs that perfectly capture Marc Almond’s fascination with romance, drama, nostalgia, and the exotic. Only the Moment is intimate and melancholic, while She Took My Heart in Istanbul brings a more theatrical, Mediterranean flavour to Almond’s world...

Some memories return as stories.
Some return as dreams.
And some...
never truly come home.

They say you don't need an umbrella
during the dry season.

But no one ever taught us
how to take shelter from memories.

🎶💿 LOVE DESTROY ME by HONEYMOAN

I finally found music by General Havoc - basically Cornershop before they moved to Leicester. They're not that different to some of the songs on the first two EPs by Cornershop (there are early versions of Moonshine and England's Dreaming)

Radio is boring this morning. NTS is playing "Death Is Not The End Jugowave & Finnish Punk, 16 Feb 2025" on one of its Infinite Mixtape channels, that will have to do.

Unfortunately there's no tracklist, so I have no idea what's going on.

It's always slightly odd when DJs on #NtsRadio play music by other DJs on NTS Radio. In this case, Kristin Kontrol playing Dry Cleaning.

They didn't play "Tina This is Matthew Stone" (not a favourite of mine). Obviously they played "Flex" - their fans are too old for a stage invasion now.

Brenda Spencer, who in 1979 became the first school shooter in a long line of them, denied parole today. When asked why she did it: "I don't like Mondays". This became the title of a song by Bob Geldof and the Boomtown Rats. https://youtu.be/SaHAvEEbQOE?si=KfntSD-_Iy2SsiuE #bobgeldof #boomtownrats #idontlikemondays #schoolshootings #guncontrol #postpunk #music #alternativemusic

I'm currently prepping NEW MUSIC for my DJing on Thursday night (at Dubrek, Derby if you're in the area) so I'll also be posting up faves from 2022.

#Fleshwater are def in there with this pearler:

It's a fucking bop which I suspect you'll love if you've loved any rock music made in the last 50 years.
