MONDAY MUSIC: DOUGLAS DARE

We received a big package of CDs today courtesy of the lovely fellas at Berlin record label Erased Tapes, which is going to keep us very happy and well-equipped for the winter to come. To celebrate the occasion, get in the mood with Douglas Dare.

MONDAY MUSIC: FINK

Autumn is in the air, and Fink will do just fine when the days shorten and the trees turn brown, with his latest album Hard Believer true to form, and not just one but two videos to support his new single Looking too Closely. Choose your own poison.

MONDAY MUSIC: COLD SPECKS

‘American deep south gospel with a strong goth streak’: we adore the debut by Canadian outfit Cold Specks.

MONDAY MUSIC: THE ACID

MONDAY MUSIC: METRONOMY

Yeah, yeah, we know, we’ve featured Metronomy like a zillion times on Monday Music, but can we help it if they keep producing top-notch videos, like in felt-tip markers? Nope, sir.
