11 Tracks - #001

If there is one thing certain on this blog, it is that regular posts are highly uncertain...

This time it took quite a while to figure out how to include music recommendations in this blog without posting on a daily basis. Others already excercise their blogging or social media schedules to an extent which is simply not feasible for my humble self. Most times it's either hard to keep track of all the countless recommendations or it's just way too much mediocre stuff to plod through. In both cases great music gets lost in the shuffle. I don't want this to happen here and I also don't want to bore you with simply re-posting countless uncommented press releases from labels and bands.

So I will just continue hoarding new musical discoveries as I usually do. Every now and then I will throw in a compilation of 11 tracks which will consist of new music, old classics and some of my fave songs thrown in to variable proportions. There will be a lot of Shoegaze, Indie Rock, Indie Pop, Dreampop and also some Wave, Post-Rock and Psychedelic Rock to discover.

There will be no Spotify Playlist or whatsoever, I will rather stick to preferably Bandcamp links which lead you directly to the respective bands and/or labels. If no such option is available I will use Youtube videos. In any case I will try to add as much information/links to the artists as possible.
