Postcard

The sun is finally out in London Town and this playlist reflects that in the shape of slumbering dreampop, shimmering shoegaze, sparking indiepop and Swedish pop! The highlight of week for me is the 1960's inspired retro sounds of In Pathécolor by Now which is taken from their forthcoming new album Now Does The Trick. As ever, enjoy!More at <a rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" href="https://recordsilike.co.uk/2025/03/09/the-kindred-soul-sampler/">https://recordsilike.co.uk/2025/03/09/the-kindred-soul-sampler/</a>

I think I blinked and February whizzed by. Luckily I had a soundtrack to accompany me most of the time and a number of tracks can be found on this mix. A lovely return from The Royal Landscaping Society can be found alongside a blistering album track from The Daydream Twins. Throw in the new single from the eternal Primitives alongside another selection of Indonesian indie pop combined with shoegaze and dreampop from around the globe and we have a great sounding mix. Plug in, listen and as ever enjoy!Photo by Héloïse Appourchaux on Unsplash

Won't Change Your Mind

beatific

There is not that much interaction with readers of this blog (I have tried over the years) so I am not sure if these samplers are a good thing or not and that readers are engaging with them. I enjoy putting them together and I suppose these posts spare you from my witterings! I hope if you are reading this you do play do give these tracks a spin as there (as always if you don't mind me saying so) some great tracks here. As ever, enjoy!<a rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" href="https://recordsilike.co.uk/2025/02/18/the-wont-change-your-mind-sampler/">https://recordsilike.co.uk/2025/02/18/the-wont-change-your-mind-sampler/</a>

For Good

I have been quite busy over the past week and whilst I did not really get the chance to write about a tune or two I managed to listen to a far bit. This sampler features a number of new releases including those I have found through participating in the Music League which was the only reason I started using Spotify again. As for the playlist I really like the Komische influences found on the tracks from Clutter and Kratzen. I also have to mention the new single from The Primitives, a band I started listening to in 1986. Whilst they took a break between 1992 and 2009 it's nice to hear them still making music almost 40 years on and the new single Sweet Sister Sorrow sounds like a cut that did not make 1989's Pure album. As ever, enjoy!<a rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" href="https://recordsilike.co.uk/2025/02/08/the-its-almost-like-youre-here-sampler/">https://recordsilike.co.uk/2025/02/08/the-its-almost-like-youre-here-sampler/</a>

I delayed this mix to the final day of the month as there was so much 
great music coming this past week. Plenty here (hear?) from Indonesia 
with releases from the middle of last month and this. There is plenty 
else besides whether it’s dreampop, janglepop or shoegaze that tickles 
your fancy. As ever, enjoy!<a rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" href="https://recordsilike.co.uk/2025/01/31/records-i-like-mix-january-2025/">https://recordsilike.co.uk/2025/01/31/records-i-like-mix-january-2025/</a>Photo by Héloïse Appourchaux on Unsplash

As we approach the end of January already here is the first sampler of the year showcasing dreampop, shoegaze, indiepop and more. There are some great tracks here and the songs from Sun cell Feat The Motifs is exceptionally strong. Roller Derby and Helen Love's new project The Double Diamond Club are also highlights but as always there is not a filler here. As ever enjoy!
