Independent Music Sampler #145

Aldora Britain Records proudly presents To Terry, an eclectic collection of 25 independent and underground artists from all around the globe. This collection is dedicated to Terry Hall of The Specials. Rest in peace, and thank you for the music, Terry.

This week, we welcome back the familiar sound of Lord Sonny The Unifier's cinematic glam rock. There is also storytelling troubadour folk from Joel David Weir, tender wintertime folk from Jeremy Beggs, and earthy folk rock from Josie Bello. We have the atmospheric indie shoegaze of Darksoft, the alternative post-punk surf of Post Galazer, and the catchy protopunk revival of The Naked Lunch.

Kevleb also returns with a refresh of his sound, the alt country has been replaced for the modern breakbeat neo-R&B of Conomor. Troy Bentley features with his progressive funk rock, Aldo Buzzi brings his synth-infused classic rock, and Hello London deliver anthemic pop rock. We then have the reggae rock dub of Q Shaq, the early neo-medieval folk of Daughter Of The Water, and the baroque indie folk of Lewis Brennan.

Hotel California and Mr Brown main man, Daniel Green, contributes a solo composition, alternative folk pop. And Italian prog behemoths Moonlit are the final returning artist, delivering the experimental, minimalistic ambience of their side project, Ancestral Dusk.

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