2022, album, carla dal forno, come around, further listening, mix, mixtape, new, south records -

Carla Dal Forno is a long-time shop favourite so we're delighted she took the time to make us a Further Listening playlist to go alongside her new album, Come Around On Come Around, Carla Dal Forno grapples with ideas of home, disorder and insomnia in the swift pop structures of her DIY/post-punk forebearers such as Young Marble Giants, Virginia Astley and Broadcast. Come Around embodies a newfound solitude born of/in elemental pop hooks and enlightened songwriting, striking between the melodic simplicity of Anna Domino and YMG and the arrangement hooks of The Cannanes and Movietone, capturing dal Forno at her most...

2022, album, engineers, further listening, mark peters, new, playlist, Red Sunset Dreams, Sonic cathedral -

Red Sunset Dreams is the follow-up to Mark Peters' hugely acclaimed debut Innerland, it features a number of guest musicians, including former One Dove singer and songwriter Dot Allison and pedal steel legend BJ Cole. Like its predecessor, Red Sunset Dreams is an album about an imaginary landscape.

2021, Album, Further Listening, Joseph Shabason, LP, Mix, Mixcloud, Mixtape, Playlist, South Records, The Fellowship -

We asked Joseph if he'd make us a Further Listening mix (following on from The Reds, Pinks & Purples from a few weeks back) and he delivered an absolute beaut, a mix of songs that have excited him in the past year. Scroll down to listen, and check out the tracklisting. BUY: The Fellowship (limited indies-only transparent blue vinyl) Tracklist: Andre Ethier - Wild GoldfishDan Edmonds - The...

2021, album, lp, Mirry, mix, mixtape, playlist, simon tong, spotify, tom fraser, vinyl -

When we first heard the Mirry album we instantly fell for it, bringing to mind the homespun experimentalism of Woo and the pastoral wonder of Virginia Astley. Then we read the great story behind it, finding that Simon Tong - an unassuming friend of a friend (who also happens to be a member of The Verve, The Good, The Bad & The Queen and The Magnetic North) was involved. Simon was kind enough to make us an exclusive mix, along with Tom Fraser, the musician whose clearance of his grandfather's loft brought us this great album. Read more about the album HERE ...
