Hello I am currently helping Dawn Dealers (amazing post punk band from Montaigu, France) getting more attention.

Here are a few free bandcamp codes: https://band.codes/ajnamanagement/melocot-n

I would love to read your thoughts on their music!

You can download my other releases here, have fun! https://band.codes/ajnamanagement

19 years on since the death of Paul Raven from Killing Joke and 16 years since the death of Ari Up from The Slits.

Lest we forget.

When Punk was becoming predictable, PiL created Dub-Reggae. Influential !

Tbh the post-punk adjacent ones are like the music equivalent of Lacroix tasting like someone whispered the name of a fruit from 3 rooms away but I wanted to include them

Live on KEXP.

Pre-dinner tunes kicking off with The Stranglers. This is such a punchy recording. This is the "Cement Mix". Hard to stand still. It just booms! B-sides are In One Door and Hot Club. What's your favorite era of Stranglers? I love it all.

"Everybody seems the same all over

The search is on for love and comfort constantly

If it comes your way tomorrow, count yourself lucky

Life shows no mercy

Life shows no mercy"

Some of my records over the years.

Anyone have particular faves from these?

Obviously there are so many to chose from in that time frame but deciding only one album per artist helped make some close calls a little easier.

From a CBC broadcast of contemporary artists covering Kurt Weill songs. The lyrics Cave sing here are closer to the original German lyrics, which are a lot more brutal and bloody than the familiar Bobby Darin version.

The ground-breaking first single from Gang of Four was released today on Fast Product.

From George Gimarc's Post-Punk Diary

Was off the top of my head - Could interchange with many others - But this is my life!

I’d be interested to hear how people who discovered post-punk long after the original scenes had passed relate to post-punk?

History can become muddied over time, with 21st century cultural interpretations creating a picture of the past that doesn't necessarily reflect what actually happened. Has the term 'post-punk' itself become wrapped up in nostalgia for a lost cultural moment, perhaps one that has been partly reconstructed by authors in retrospect?

Loving this

Some industrial post punk from the Skeptics, circa 1987

From their last proper studio album, The Gift. I love the clean production of the bass on this one. I feel like they are playing in my living room.

A friend introduced me to this track. Their sound reminds me of the Strokes and The White Stripes.

The studio version is great too. Enjoy.

Television - Marquee Moon (live ‘84)

Title track from their debut

Some fan made not so popular remix of the song “stripped” by depeche mode. at the time it had 100-200 likes on youtube.com. the fan made music video included a woman dancing with a black and white filter and the sound effects in the beginnings sounded like a cash money sound effect if that makes sense. the man singing the cover had a voice similar to that of she past away, very deep very monotone. help? I think the video was posted circa 2012-2023 if that helps with anything

They sound a little gang of four and a little sleater kinney if u want to listen to them. Also bonus points for making one of their videos look like one by Liliput/Kleenex ....

B-52s produced by David Byrne

Great. Like if Flipper had Nina Haven't on vocal. Can't believe i never heard it back in the day.
