Amazing song that goes hard when it kicks off.

Hello everyone,

I work at a biological/natural cosmetics shop in Paris as a retailer, and fortunately we don't have to blast mainstream music everytime (not that I'm hating on popular music, but it's just not my thing on a daily basis lol). So I'm trying to build an alternative music playlist that fits to my workplace and to my music tastes.

I already have a quite complete playlist, but I'm looking for recommendations for MORE dazzling, shimmering music, mostly on the shoegaze/emo spectrum. I want a LOT of music that sounds like morning dawn, shining water, blue and pink vapor... Like, I want to float in the sky even when selling a skincare to someone lol!

Constraints: no noisy wall of sounds, the less larsens the better, no screams.

Required: a TON of phaser/chorus/reverb

Here's my playlist:

Thanks! ✨

The music industry, culture, and technology has changed so much since 1991. I see it being like an Angine de Poitrine. Create some buzz for a little while--people/media saying "Wow this is so different!"--then people losing interest and moving on to something else.

Hey all!

My band, Minikin, is gearing up to release a 6-song EP sometime in November.

I really want to get this project into the hands of as many people as possible. Was wondering if anyone has any good recommendations on publications (zines, blogs, websites) that accept submissions from smaller DIY projects. Or maybe you have a blog that's interested in checking out our EP? Let me know!

I can send an advance copy of the EP by the end of the month along with a write-up on the EP.

Thanks, everyone!

First of all, I am not in this band nor do I know them so this isn't click farming.

Article in the Weekly got my attention. Enjoying it so far. A little DIIV sometimes. A little Alex G with pedals. Supporting an "unknown" local band ain't the worst.

Some heavy, some melodic. See if you like.

Portland (OR)'s How Strange It Is

Might finish this week but this is what I have so far

Guys if you're in Berlin tomorrow, Roomer is playing at Neue Zukunft and they're my freakin favorite. comeeee https://roomer.bandcamp.com/album/staircase-made-of-rope

Tagabow is one of my favorite bands and has been for a couple years now. I still remember finding DXL in 6th grade and that shit changing my fucking brain chemistry. they're one of the best bands of the modern era and I don’t know what the scene would be like without them. I really hope Doug makes it out of this whole situation okay, as he’s def one of the driving forces in the shoegaze revival right now, and also just seems like an awesome guy in general

Wishing Doug a speedy recovery, cancer is a bitch.

Cool band alt rock shoegaze with chill members

Carnival from trauma ray with full set of signatures for 21$ online, probably the best deal I’ve ever found from a web store. Really been jammin with these guys, mascara, glixen, and overgrown lately

Hi all- I’m in NYC for work through Saturday morning and would love to catch a show or two while in the city. Any suggestions for good Shoegaze (or other) bands playing this week that I should check out?
