Notes

System (2025) by Prewn was a recommended album to me on Spotify and I was quite taken by some of its dirty basslines and ultimately the rather nonchalant attitude that permeates through the track listing. From there, bands like Twen, Automatic, Geese and Night Tapes all shuffled into rotation, sounding not quite like each other, but each with a particular brand of indie, melancholia and stoicism that was enough for me to sit up and take notice.

Toward the end of the week, I searched for music similar to Rival Consoles because I was struggling with focus and producers like Kelly Moran and Barker did not disappoint.

Finally, just as the week was coming to a close, I decided to check out another recommended album, Sunshine and Balance Beams (2025) by Pile, and I was not disappointed again. They play the sort of music I wished I could also be be in a band playing, with just a right balance of noise to melody ratio, with a bias towards noise.
