If it’s not clear yet, we are huge fans of Bandcamp. It’s a music streaming platform designed from the ground up to actually assist in the turbulent task of making money as an artist. As we’ve noted many times before, streaming platforms like Spotify or Apple Music definitely have their role in exposing an artist […]

Harpooner – Live at Josh’s House
Cold Lunch Recordings is continuing to regularly publish their series of performance videos aptly entitled Live at Josh’s House (though, truth be told, this one was filmed Live at Scott’s House, not that it matters).

The Mute Group – “Father Figure / Airbag”
