A Different Arrangement
by Black Marble
This record seems like a blend of minimal wave and post punk influences at first, but the songwriting stands on its own feet... as does the idiosyncratic production. We've been listening to it a lot!

Highly original synth- / samplepop, enriched with latin and caribbean flavours. Especially digging the smooth vocal performances of Richard Hunter-Rivera!

New Frontiers
by The Foreign Resort
supported by 5 fans who also own “Bad News”
It's impossible to rank the Foreign Resort's albums, but it is possible to say they're all mandatory. This is modern post-punk at it's very best. Every track is great, but we did include "Dead Leaves" in mix 024 of 14 Waves podcast: https://14waves.com/podcast/mix-024-im-a-gasoline-gut-with-a-vaseline-mind/

Yr Body is Nothing
by Boy Harsher
supported by 5 fans who also own “Bad News”
Slowly backtracking and collecting the backcatalog of Boy Harsher here... As always rife with beautiful sounding detuned retro synth goodness and beautiful and melancholic vocal melodies. In a couple week gonna get another chance to see you guys live in Riga again! Cheers

by Candy Moore
Sweetly melancholy bedroom pop is rarely as actually vulnerable and personal as it is in this Australian artist's hands.
