Before we begin this rolling thread of suggestions to dip and dive into, here’s @Bandcamp’s statement daily.bandcamp.com/features/bandc…
Everything’s in a long, slow dreamscape. The world flickers black and as the guitars sprawl, dust clouds rise and we fade to grey.

The wondrous @marissanadler has released an album of luscious demos today. Go swim in her serpentine songs🖤 #NewMusicFriday marissanadler.bandcamp.com/album/unearthed
💫 Shimmering.
🎸 Simmering.
🌊 With a voice that soars above a rich tapestry of sound that pulls at the threads of 60s glamour and 00s soul, discover one of the albums of 2020: The Archer by @alexandrasavior on Danger Mouse’s @30thCenturyRcds alexandrasavior.bandcamp.com/album/the-arch…
Take a moment.
Breathe.
Place your brain in a fridge of strings and let these pianos calm the fire in your mind.

👏 @hammockmusic has been releasing glorious ambient music for forever and his latest is a masterpiece. shop.hammockmusic.com/album/silencia

𝒮𝓊𝓅𝓅𝑜𝓇𝓉 𝓎𝑜𝓊𝓇 𝓁𝑜𝒸𝒶𝓁 𝑔𝒾𝓇𝓁 𝑔𝒶𝓃𝑔

We’ve been PINS (@WeArePins) stans since day 1. They take punk-rock on a night out and tickle it with feathers. @IggyPop is such a big fan he sang on their record

Hear their newie + order the new LP 💪 wearepins.bandcamp.com/album/hot-slick
If 🖤 is your most used emoji.

If you like the idea of slow heavy music that broods like an overflowing bath.

If you wanna know what a cathedral organ sounds like during a never ending eclipse...

You need to hear Anna von Hausswolff (@avonhausswolff) annavonhausswolffmusic.bandcamp.com/album/dead-mag…
“We” didn’t do an albums of 2019 list but if you ask me ( 👋 hi this is @seaninsound writing these Bandcamp recs) then this was #1.

The combined forces of @phoebe_bridgers & @conoroberst conspired to make the ultimate cardboard fort as @better_oblivion …roblivioncommunitycenter.bandcamp.com/album/better-o…
There’s already been an embarrassment of riches released in 2020.

Like a ship gracefully navigating a stormy sea, few have caught our ear like the latest from Lanterns on the Lake (@lanternstalk / @bellaunion)

🌊 For fans of @AngelOlsen & @TheNational lanternsonthelake.bandcamp.com/album/spook-th…
It swooshes.
Hearts burst.
@kellyleeowens makes time lapse techno.

Life is loud.
Laugh as you lean into the abyss.

@shit_rock has made melodic noisy music in McClusky and Future of The Left but have you explored his brilliant Pixies-fighting-an-albatross project Christian Fitness?

Start here.
Insert coin(s) to continue. christianfitness.bandcamp.com/album/this-tac…
Few artists have left us feeling as warmed and awed as @themynabirds.

With clenched fists and open arms, Laura funnels the rage of the present through a prism of nostalgia for a crumbling past, lit by the sunrising glow of the future.

🦅 Start here: themynabirds.bandcamp.com/album/lovers-k…
If you’re not already sold by a song title like ‘Trigger Happy Kisses’ then know that @Hannahlouclark is like a blissed out Kurt Cobain with Jarvis’ wide-eye for everyday wonder.

🛌 🥤 Bedroom-pop has never been more comforting.

The world needs soothing right now.
The world 𝓃𝑒𝑒𝒹𝓈 this record.

🎸 Noveller aka @sarahlipstate is one of our absolute favourites and if you’re not already swept up in her cloud of selfcare guitars, start here with this mind-easing masterpiece: noveller.bandcamp.com/album/a-pink-s…
Like strawberry sauce on a sundae for your sadness: @The_Anchoress has just put her version of ‘Cellophane’ by @FKAtwigs (@youngturksrec @nicolas___jaar) aka the song of 2019 on her Bandcamp for next 48hrs. 😭 🍨 iamtheanchoress.bandcamp.com/track/cellopha…
Pianos.
Pi.
Anos.

Notes scatter.
Cluster.

🎹 @poppyackroyd makes murmurations that will astound you.

For fans of @OlafurArnalds @nilsfrahm @agnesobel @Hanpeel poppy.bandcamp.com/album/resolve
Some great suggestions from one of our favourite writers.
Some brilliant recommendations from Aussie music expert @LouiseRmason

If you thought Bowie’s predictions about the internet were prescient, then future-gazer @the_EMA_ will thrill & terrify you in equal measure.

One of the most attuned songwriters & producers of the 21st century. 💯

For fans of @depechemode @nineinchnails emaband.bandcamp.com/album/the-futu…
Have you ever wondered what a heavy af Pet Shop Boys would sound like?

Wonder no more. Welcome @_HEALTH_ into your life. youwillloveeachother.bandcamp.com/album/death-ma…
That cascading implosion when a camera films a screen. Like a tunnel of mirrors, the movements multiply. You’re unsettled but captivated

@juliannabarwick’s chambers of sound make a palace in the caves of your mind’s eye as she funnels your soul into space juliannabarwick.bandcamp.com/album/nepenthe
A sphere rises from the Black Sea.
Dripping in the dark.
Bond villains run for cover.
The sea turns to blood.
Out of the shadowy orb emerges a hero with a scythe.
@ZOLAJESUS saves.
🩸 Okovi is a must own healing ball of humanity at its bleakest & best
zolajesus.bandcamp.com/album/okovi
No one:
No one:
Not one at all:
Boomers: Rock is dead.

Us: There have been hundreds of great “guitar” “music” albums released in the last 20 years and you need @yumhoneyblood’s discography for starters. fatcatrecords.bandcamp.com/album/babes-ne…
Repent!
You need the snarliest, most petrol-soaked, rust-edged punk rock record of the 21st century in your collection.

Inject yourself with some @icaruslinemovie / @_JOE_CARDAMONE_ theicarusline.bandcamp.com/album/penance-…
If @giantdrag was a getaway car, then @AnnieHardy’s solo work is joyriding at daybreak. Riddled with those late night epiphanies you cling to remember... when you see the grain of truth behind a conspiracy.

Annie’s new EP is fuck-you-stu-pendous anniehardy.bandcamp.com/album/saves-2
Languish in melancholy.
Marinate in sadness.

These would be a far better names for our website and we’d just write about artists who love Elliott Smith and The Cure. @tomberlin personifies this and much more.

Perfect for headphones, pref in the rain. tomberlin.bandcamp.com/album/at-weddi…
It’s #BandcampFriday — who needs soothing?

Climb into the purple mist and dark but warm cathedrals that sprawl from @_Hilary_Woods. 💨

She’s promised some limited edition prints and records will be up today. For now, commune with us and join the Colt hilarywoodsmusic.bandcamp.com/album/colt
Have you ever been so obsessed with a piece of music that you have to ban yourself from listening to it for a week?

If pianos that skitter and form murmurations are your addiction, here’s ‘Tree’ by @lukeabbottmusic (his electronic music is amazing too) lukeabbottmusic.bandcamp.com/track/tree
