Evening. First of all I would like to thank all of you who have contacted me with your Spotify finds. It is a great help, even though not all of your recommendations end up in the blog. Right now it’s particularly tricky to “get in” due to the many great Spotify updates recently.

Anyway, now it’s time for another release from the latest Spotify update: a really good single by 65daysofstatic. Post-rock meets electronic and the result is epic. I hope to see more from Monotreme Records in coming updates. Enjoy!
