Adele & the Chandeliers  German on My Mind   Favoriting First Date  Adele Pickvance  2020  Meanjin/Brisbane trio Adele & The Chandeliers play jubilant pop with post-punk energy, full of charm, playfulness and sparkle. Before forming the group, vocalist-bassist Adele Pickvance was a member of The Go-Betweens plus solo work with Robert Forster & Grant McLennan, and did multiple albums with The Dave Graney Show. "My bass guitar gives me superpowers too! It is a different headspace and I’ve had to come to terms with being the one who is responsible for the maintenance of the band/ keeping it going/ planning, etc… That’s all new to me. I love playing live, I’ve gigged since I was 17. My comfort zone is plugging the jack in to the bass, switching the amp on, testing the microphone and being on stage. It’s not the glory of being on stage, it’s the making of music that’s the thrill for me. "    0:04:21 (MP3 | Pop-up)
ONETWOTHREE  Buy Buy   Favoriting ONETWOTHREE  Kill Rock Stars  2021  OUR FIRST VINYL GIVEAWAY! GET THIS ON VINYL WITH A DONATION OF $20 OR MORE... CLICK THIS LINK TO PLEDGE TO WFMU (via TxFmEchoBeach) What happens when you combine three women bassist singers from 70s/80s Swiss bands? A: a trio-full of sinuous music which reclaims the minimalist sound of the post-punk that they first created themselves. In September 2018, after decades of friendship, three women decided to finally combine forces for a show of strength. The equation seems straightforward, yet it's very powerful: Klaudia Schifferle (Kleenex/Liliput) + Madlaina Peer (Noknows) + Sara Schaer (TNT , Souldawn) = ONETWOTHREE. They sport an impressive heritage but they're also creating something that's unique and proudly their own - spooky, danceable, subtle, compelling music for a post-pandemic world.    0:06:45 (MP3 | Pop-up)
Karl Kave, Julia Toggenberger  Schrott Im All   Favoriting Single  Carlo Rainolter  2025  An upcoming single from Swiss producer Karl Kave..."Blue Planet" is a journey through past realms, realms of today and someday. The lyrics zoom in from the inside to the outside, while the music is set in the 1980s. The first collaboration between Winterthur-based author Julia Toggenburger and Rhine Valley musician Carlo Rainolter (Karl Kave, Carlo Onda) combines unabashed eccentricity with a clear artistic vision. Primal synthpop for lovers of borderline worlds.  *   0:09:05 (MP3 | Pop-up)
Kochkraft Durch KMA  lana_v@gmx.de   Favoriting Single  Grand Hotel Von Kleef  2025  Modern punks of electronic music don’t quite form an active, homogeneous movement in the same way that the original punks did in the 70s and 80s, but they share a similar mindset and speak up about similar problems in today’s society. It is most definitely visible in the primal energy of German band Kochkraft durch KMA, whose live sets always end up somewhere between chaos and riot, and the band have also started to carve out a space for themselves in a cis-male world, campaigning for involving more FLINTA+ artists [the German abbreviation for LGBTQIA persons] in the German music scene.  *   0:10:53 (MP3 | Pop-up)
Team Scheisse  Beige   Favoriting Beige Single  SoulForce Records  2025  Tobias Hausdorf attests to the band's "mindfulness and online sensitivity" on Zeit Online , which "combine Team Scheiße [ sic ] with good, old demolition music." "The Bremen band shines in concert as well as on Instagram ." Linus Volkmann called the band's second LP, Ich habe dir Blumen von der Gase mit gebracht (Jetzt wird küsst) (I brought you flowers from the gas station (now we kiss)) "Record of the Year" in his column for Musikexpress on December 2, 2021. In 2022, Team Scheisse received the Pop Culture Award for "Most Promising Newcomer" for the album Ich habe dir Blumen von der Gase mit gebracht (Jetzt wird küsst) (I brought you flowers from the gas station (now we kiss)) .  *   0:13:05 (MP3 | Pop-up)
Niemals Akzeptieren  Kapitalakumilation   Favoriting Dr. Drexler Project  play loud!  2019  Dr. K. Eric Drexler, a pioneering nanotechnology researcher and author, is known for introducing the concept of scalable atomically precise manufacturing (APM), a technology that uses nanoscale devices to structure matter from the bottom up. He also published "Engines of Creation" which popularized the term and concept of nanotechnology. The protest song is back. The Dr. Drexler project operates from the Southern German town of Augsburg, birthplace of Bertolt Brecht. The collective's sound is modernized post-punk. Rhythms for the dancefloor. Snarling bass, chiselled beats, sharp-edged guitars and gritty lyrics that give voice to angry times.    0:14:48 (MP3 | Pop-up)
Twin Noir  Picasso   Favoriting Single  Twin Noir Records  2025  TWIN NOIR is a Punk / New Wave duo from Berlin, driven by a tape machine. The duo develop its power by doing minimalistic lyrics in german language, combined with powerfull basslines, sound spheres by guitar, synthesizers and dark danceable electronic club sounds.  *   0:18:19 (MP3 | Pop-up)

Le Shok  Mind Your Own Business   Favoriting We Are Electrocution LP  Le Shok  2021  A most excellent cover of Delta 5's classic song. e Shok was formed in 1997 (originally under the name Shock) by Asshole Andrew (Treadwell) on guitar, Joey Juvenile (The Locust) on drums, and Hot Rod Todd on vocals. After hearing a rehearsal tape, Darryl Licht (Action League) joined the band on keyboards, and Over the Counter Rusty (Treadwell) joined as bassist.

Heavy Times  Black Sunglasses   Favoriting Black Sunglasses  Hozac Records  2016  It’s been too long since you’ve felt the damp, leathery slap of Heavy Times across the small of your back, and it’s about time, isn’t it? We’re proud to present the next phase of this incredible Chicago band, one of the only bands that shape shifts lineups so seamlessly that it’s impossible to keep up with, yet always leaves you wanting more. The blueprint for this EP has changed so many times, but as the boys settle back into a more steady lineup with Russ Calderwood (Radar Eyes, Runnies, Dirges, Brides) on dead-locked bass and Tim Thomas (making it three Michigan guys now) on drums, it’s time to unleash these fireballs of nuanced grungy pop unto the earth. No stain remover on earth will be able to removes the audio scar you’ll endure with “Black Sunglasses” so just make sure you’re not operating any heavy machinery and make sure you’re wearing some sort of helmet, because you won’t be able to keep that sweet skull of yours off the bricks for long.    0:36:28 (MP3 | Pop-up)
Prettiest Eyes  Johnny Come Home   Favoriting Volume 3  Castle Face  2019  Based in Los Angeles, California the band crafts a notoriously popular live show that blends elements of Psych-Punk, Noise, Krautrock and Industrial with a solid blues-based backbone. The end result is loaded with razor-sharp elements and buzzing keyboards processed through effect pedals for an excruciating crunch.    0:38:08 (MP3 | Pop-up)
Mhaol  DM:AM   Favoriting DM:AM single  Merge Records  2025  M(h)aol say about their latest single: "This song is about men DM’ing women online and then getting aggressive when they don’t get the response they want. They quickly turn to insults about the women, and then once the woman says she’ll expose what they’ve done, she gets a laundry list of reasons why he behaves like this and how much he has to lose, which is meant to make the women feel sorry for them."  *   0:40:49 (MP3 | Pop-up)
EMPEREUR  Eau Rouge   Favoriting Eau Rouge  Icy Cold Records  2025  Ready to take on the gentrification of post-punk, Belgium's EMPEREUR unleashes their cold, binary wave like a sawed-off shotgun, spitting venom in the form of sharp, manifesto-like outbursts finished in acid. On a mission to add Chaos to Chaos, the drums pound in unison with a razor-sharp bassline against a wall of feedback. Visceral, cutting, the alarm bell rings and all hell breaks loose. Three minutes per track is already too much time to scream into the void.  *   0:42:58 (MP3 | Pop-up)
Purrses  Ride the Dragon   Favoriting Single  JauneOrange  2025  Fronted by Laura Ruggiero, Purrses has been grinding since 2022, carving a jagged niche in the indie scene with a sound that’s tough to pin down. “Ride the Dragon” lands as a languid, choppy beast—guitars slice through a laid-back rhythm, carrying lyrics that drip with weariness and a sly, amused edge. It’s a cynical fable, Ruggiero says, aimed squarely at men while doubling as a love letter to femininity. The dragon here isn’t some fantasy trope—it’s a metaphor for women who refuse to bend, bold and unapologetic. The track sways between defiance and exhaustion, mirroring the push-pull of emancipation it’s chasing. This isn’t preachy; it’s too sharp for that, too aware of the absurdity in the fight.  *   0:45:18 (MP3 | Pop-up)

Faux Real & Wet Leg  Walking Away From My Demons (Wet Leg RMX)   Favoriting Single  City Slang  2025  times, the only way to shake off feelings of inadequacy is to just get up and go. Faux Real’s art-pop brilliance collides with Wet Leg’s signature wit in an electrifying remix of Walking Away From My Demons. Fresh off their first U.S. tour together in 2022, Faux Real and Wet Leg have forged a creative kinship that seamlessly translates into this collaboration. The result? A track that effortlessly balances humor and hedonism, making it impossible not to move to. With a pulsating club beat and an air of effortless cool, Wet Leg transforms the track into a confident, deadpan anthem for those ready to leave their past behind.  *   1:06:23 (MP3 | Pop-up)
Working Men's Club  A.A.A.A.   Favoriting Working Men's Club  Heavenly Recordings  2020  Working Men’s Club’s outstanding self-titled debut brings a mixtape feel to songs, as various sounds and styles are hurled in with gleeful eclecticism. A well of early synthpop, from Daniel Miller’s proto-synth act the Normal to post-punk era Simple Minds, early Human League and Pulp, informs everything. Stark electronics are undercut with funkier elements of Detroit techno, acid house squiggles and Italian house pianos to create a danceable sound that’s simultaneously austere and uplifting.    1:10:06 (MP3 | Pop-up)
Escape-ism  Charge of the Love Brigade   Favoriting Charge of the Love Brigade  Radical Elite  2025  ESCAPE-ISM — the found-sound dreamdrama— are back in action & out in front. And this time, they’re leading a “Charge of the Love Brigade.”This “charge” isn’t the traditional scramble across a muddy, bloody field though, like in the days of yore. This one is a furtive insinuation into the senses of the tuned-in listener.  *   1:13:05 (MP3 | Pop-up)
Memphis Electronic  Disco Girl   Favoriting Memphis + Electronic = Memphis Electronic  Mono-Tone Records  2023  Dum Dum Boys, XYZ and NON! guitar player second solo album, a home-recorded double LP extravaganza of fuzzy rockers, lo fi diskopunk dancefloor anthems, weird glam, heartbreaking ballads and psych pop!

Our THIRD LP GIVEAWAY! A MUST HAVE FOR FANS OF DISCO! Donate 20$ or more to win this amazing LP CLICK THIS LINK TO PLEDGE TO WFMU (via TxFmEchoBeach) Since 2009, Dark Entries has been working with Cowley’s friends and family to uncover the singular artist’s lesser-known sides, including his soundtracks for films on compilation albums School Daze, Muscle Up, and Afternooners. From Behind reveals yet another facet of Cowley’s myriad influences; garage and soul. As a tripped-out teenage music freak who arrived in 60’s San Francisco, it should come as no surprise that these psychedelic sounds, both heady and visceral, infuse Cowley’s oeuvre. Recorded during Cowley’s most productive period, ‘80-’82, these tracks show the master flexing his virtuosity while paying loving tribute to the songs that shaped him.

Exactly what Party Dozen are is completely up to the listener. Doom. Jazz. Hardcore. Psychedelic. No-wave. Industrial. Although largely instrumental, their sets are punctuated by Kirsty’s unique “singing” style, screaming into the bell of her saxophone which itself goes through a bevy of effects pedals. Intensely independent in everything they do, the duo write, perform and record everything themselves...    1:39:10 (MP3 | Pop-up)
Death Valley Girls  Watch the Sky   Favoriting Islands in the Sky  Suicide Squeeze Records  2023  For the better part of a decade, LA’s scrappy rock n’ roll mystics Death Valley Girls have used their music as a means of tapping into a communal cosmic energy. On albums like Glow In The Dark (2016), Darkness Rains (2018), and Under the Spell of Joy (2020) the band challenged the soul-crushing banality of modern society and celebrated “true magical infinite potential” through a collage of scorching proto-punk riffs, earworm melodies, far-out lyrics, and lysergic auxiliary instrumentation.
