WL//WH Weekly Shoegaze / Dreampop / Psychedelic / Indie Tips

• Milan, Italy lo-fi/power-pop solo project of Canadians bassist DIETNAM “Un Disco Molto Breve” Coronavirus benefit single (details inside)
  
• Minimalist lo-fi guitar dream pop project of Jimmy Hewitt (formerly Orca Orca) based in Northampton, MA, LOST FILM “Baseball” from new cassette EP “Between melting and freezing” via new Sheffield cassette tape label Utility Tapes.
  

One of our favourite DIY pop artisan returns with a delicious new track that walks out on a delicately hazy ecstatic sonic soundscape infused with melodic ambience, dotted with syncopated rhythms and flowing icy melancholy keyboards wheeze, while slightly abrasive guitar riffs, pulsing bass and wistful glistening crisp leads coalesce with the dreamy vocals to cast a hypnotic and disarmingly sublime pop spell. The EP will be relesed on a brand new eclectic DIY tape label from Sheffield called Utility Tapes. Check it out!

• Los Angeles, CA ambient rock/dream pop/shoegaze band, DROWSY “Thurifer” new single
   

L.A. based shoegazers continue their string of sublimely neon-lit atmospheric singles with haunted moody vocals alternating with intense instrumental turbulence building bipolar distorted haze over angsty obsessive longings.

• Swedish lo-fi garage punk band Kool & The Gang Bangers “Killer Kops” new single on No Fidelity Records
  

Swedish garage punk rockers perfectly connect punk urgency with pop immediacy amidst a chaotic lo-fi clash of dirty abrasive guitar riffs and rattling drums over resonant bassline, charged with agitated anti-social caustic rant. Killer single!
