FANDCAMP: The Alchemist’s Muse
“Wow… this album just flows into my heart, unreal! Masterpiece from start to finish in my humble opinion. The atmospheres, the musical flow/vibe, the amazing sounds, the dreamy feel, created from the heart & soul, it’s almost touchable.”

ARCHIVES | MIX TAPE RADIO on FRUK - EPISODE 032
Since my iPhone battery decided to go dead, and since my 3 nieces were coming for a mountain town visit for the last week of June, I decided to take a ‘mostly offline’ break. BUT… since I had some “lost episodes” in the pocket, I scheduled some Mixcloud uploads for the usual Monday & Thursday mixes. So here’s MTR EPS 032 (the final lost one).

Fandcamp: Painted Shut
“Heart breaking, sincere, irresistibly charming and just an immense treat of an indie rock album to listen to. Much has been said about vocalist Frances Quinlan's rather captivating and even idiosyncratic vocals and this album shows it off wonderfully in all of it's power, angst and vulnerability.”
Fandcamp: Broom
“Sweet, innocently infectious indie pop that you'll not soon forget.”
