about

Weekly Independent Music Taster #110

Aldora Britain Records proudly presents The Muskrat Mud Shuffle Shuffles On, a collection of 26 eclectic musical selections from all around the globe. This week's title is taken from the Daniel Young composition 'Muskrat Mud Shuffle', the opening song from his most recent LP, The World Ain't Gonna Wait. The title track from that record, a superb slice of cosmic country rock, is included here.

We welcome back several familiar faces this week. Hell Nation Army return with their loud and raucous crunching speed punk, and Faster Than Light juxtapose this perfectly with their unforgettable pop rock hooks. Tommy Romero give us soul-inclined rockabilly revival, and The Nautical Theme bring an ambient take on alternative folk music. There is also the jangly college pop of The Persian Leaps, Snow Wolf Records contribute the heavy fuzz metal of Thumos, and 4000 Records are back with the post-classical avant experimentation of Shugorei.

As always, please download, listen loud, dig deeper with your discoveries, and support Aldora Britain Records and independent music.

Have a brilliant weekend!

Tom @ Aldora Britain Records

It's been awhile since an album has captured my attention so completely. I love the laid-back retro vibe. The lyrics are better than I initially realized and while the band has clearly crafted an outstanding work here, they don't take themselves too seriously either. Now looking forward to seeing them live. SpicyMcHaggis
