I need a flag I endorse this sentiment xx Would be great if you could quickly make one on MS Paint or something to fill in the gap in the flag thread (you too WhoOdyssey) I actually charted 'Wet Dollars' at the time it came out so it's obviously a song I've already heard but I don't remember it at all, looking forward to hearing it again if I liked it that much the first time around! Bøtanikkä already sounds great just from the title as well. (Fun fact: this is now the FOURTH time they've sent Jam El Mar under 4 different names, although at least this time it's not just a straight alias of Jam & Spoon ) |

I got a different song by Imminence popping up on my YouTube front page the other day which I bookmarked to listen to later as it looked interesting ;o so needless to say very intrigued for that one.
Aesthetica seems like the kind of thing that might be amazing as well. x |

Quite looking forward to hearing an Altyr entry for once as I like what I've heard from SOAK! (Also sent her to Unknown Pleasures before but in the form of a remix that is very different to her usual sound)

I’ve heard of SOAK but I don’t think I’ve heard that particular song from her!
I wonder if Dexton managed to confirm bc if not it’s a pity that it won’t get the Holland-Oats seal of approval |
