Even More Freebies From the Archives - Downloadable Bandcampers - Phase 3

Perhaps you doubted us. Perhaps we doubted ourselves. Perhaps we waited too long. Perhaps we didn't wait long enough. But here we are, hat and fappy and thrusting and bursting with more free & legal downloadables we've rounded up from the Powerpopulist Archives. We just now checked each and every and verified that all are indeed available for either Free or Name-Your-Price Download. Clicking /////bc will take you to the appropriate Bandcamp download page. As before, if you get to Bandcamp and find a song has a price attached, do one of three things: 1) Click "Buy the Full Digital Album" and be taken to the page where it's downloadable for free or name-your-price (in which case, type "0"in the pricebox); 2) Click the album name just under the song name at the top left-hand side of the Bandcamp page; 3) Pay money to buy the song. We attach no particular importance to the number of songs in this Phase 3 playlist (69); that's simply the way it turned out. Most of the songs are powerpop, indiepop. janglepop, and other kinds of hooky, melodic pop, but this list is a bit more varied than the previous two. It includes some shoegaze, some crunch, and even has a wad of bubblegum stuck in there somewhere. We hope you find plenty to cop, feel, and flow with dopaminiacally. Oh, and, yes, we do have the aforepromised SoundCloud and straight mp3-linked downloadable playlists pretty much ready to post, and when that will be done is anybody's guess. Doubt us do ye? Good move. Click appropriately to find the 50 free and legals in Phase 1 and 50 more in Phase 2.

Bandcamp Purchasefaves - December 2016/January 2017: Resonars, Virgineers, Kevin Devine, Fogbound, Beginner's Mynd, Magic Shoppe, Laissez Fairs, Pink Mexico, et. al. . . .

We bought more than 130 songs at Bandcamp the last month or so (29dec16-31jan17) and thought about posting all of them. Then we decided to narrow it down to a couple of dozen favorites. We also thought about posting them in their individual Bandcamp widgets but then decided it might be easier for you to check them out using a Playmoss widget. If you want to hear the EP or LP the song lives in, click the bc logo at the end of each songline below. (If you want to do this while listening to a different song, you might want to use that sophisticated Mouse Scroll Wheel technique we told you about on October 1, 2010.) If you want to check out the rest of what we bought, go to our Bandcamp Collection. If you want to check out some other songs we've been finding of late, click on the Playmoss widget in the upper right-hand corner of this page. If you want more options, you really are kind of OCD/C, aren'tcha.

Nota bene: Song #6 is actually by The Steppes. Song #21 is by Doug Tuttle.

pppurcha$e$ - Second Quarter 2015

We recently sheeted a list of our purcha$e$ at eMusic and Bandcamp during the second quarter of the current year. If you're "down" with stuff in the powerpop, indiepop, shoegaze, psych, garage, or jangle arenas, you might get some ideas for buys, streams, or "borrowings" of your own. Click here to spread 'em. Oh, and if you're one of those who likes to hear songs in their entirety before purcha$ing, check out our Bandcamp collection. (Optional. Just a, you know, thought.)

pppurcha$e$ - Fourth Quarter 2014

Oh, yeah, no doot, here 'tis, and only 26 days late. What you find in our regular posts is not all the music we're loving and acquiring, oh, no, no no. So if you're looking for recommendations of music you might like, click here to see our list of recent purcha$e$.

Friday Freebs: Daddy Issues, Dollyrots, Marvelous Beauhunks, alicetales, Radiator Hospital, Freeks

What we're gonna do here is kind of hopscotch our way back and forth through several months of our "mp3 possibles" list. By the time you get to the bottom, you might be thinking, "This is oldstuff, pp." But then again, you might not.






We especially like #4 as well. (See pic, duh.)

Not sure what they're saying but sure love the way they say it.




Well, we just discovered this last one's no longer a freeb. Please shoot us. (Thanks in advance.)
