we’re back with our next edition of The Wrap! covering some of our favourite releases of March 2024, with so many incredible releases 🌮 you can find all of our reviews below ⬇️
Manchester’s own Run Remedy has returned with a brand new single, “Turf War“! We’re huge fans of Robin’s music, such intricate and delicate melodies interwoven into dynamic and intrinsic storytelling lyricism – feeling like you’re having a nice conversation with an old friend. Her lyrics touch on a variety of emotions, feelings, and topics, whilst feeling fresh and natural; the flow of this track is lovely, with a vibey groove behind it, and a luscious guitar pattern painting the scene, providing a gorgeous space for Robin’s vocal to take command and really entice the listener in. A must see live performer, too!
We’ve covered Strange Dream a bunch in the past, and we love their fast-paced lo-fi style, feeling like a real throwback to the psychedelic scene of the 70’s, so many lovely guitar tones thrown into their music and this new single “Lyin’ Down (Reloaded)” is no different! Kicking off with a real force, it opens up with a huge atmosphere, to drop away so lusciously into the verse, with a lovely vocal melody setting the scene; only to open back up into a real fuzzy, grungey vibe but with the brightness of the psychedelic genre that they focus on. Another incredible tune from them!
Manchester-based indie-pop outfit daisychain just released their debut single “Stay“! A lovely melodic guitar riff opens up the track, with Johnny Marr-esque arpeggiation, a bouncy and upbeat rhythm matched between the bass and drums, providing a lovely backdrop for the main vocal to take centre stage. It reminds us of folk-punk too, the more direct and personal elements of the track really give us Remember Sports and P.S. Eliot, especially with the guitar tones and the vocal timbre. A fantastic debut single, we can’t wait to hear what they’ve got in store!
We’ve been fans of ARTEMIS for a good while now, having seen him progress over the past few years, having performed at gigs and events across the city, and his sound has progressed so well and it is evident fully in his new track “The Waves“! Taking influence from acts like The National and Phoebe Bridgers, with delicate melodies and atmospheric vocals, creating a gorgeous soundscape for the backdrop to his personal and often uplifting and positive lyricism. There’s a gorgeous shimmery atmosphere to this track, feeling so intimate throughout but being so dynamic too – well worth a listen!
North East Scotland’s Sunkisst just put out their brand new album, and we love this single “Amplifier“! With a grungey, mean guitar riff solidifying the base of the track, elements of blues and punk are present throughout; it’s an upbeat tune with a whole range of influences in there. The track’s got a fantastic groove to it, and it’s dark, broody and direct, yet the chorus is open, huge and upbeat – the dynamic in the song is fantastic. Such a great track, well worth a listen!
Another act on our radar for a good while, Harry Heart just released his brand new single “Asylum“! A real force on the scene, performing a bunch and really gaining a name for himself over the past few years, and this new single is real proof of his talent. His vocal commands the track superbly, making the listener hang onto every word, with a luscious guitar melody, and fantastic production, every element coming together so well; and with backing vocals from the amazing Harriet Dagnall! He’s culminated a variety of inspirations here to really create something unique, there’s grungey elements, indie rock, pop and soul; we can’t wait to see what this year has in store for Harry.
A real familiar face for us here at the label, ByWednesday have just dropped their brand new single “Circles“! We’ve had them perform for us a bunch of times, and they always smash it; their indie-rock/shoegaze/alternative-pop stylings really come together to create something unique. This track is almost jazzy at times, and the guitar tones throughout are just simply gorgeous. You can really see the chemistry of the band in this track too, there’s such a connection between them all, everyone is perfectly placed and balanced! It’s brilliant to see, and they’ve come out here with another banger that’s sure to solidify them as ones to watch for 2024.
We’ve had Luna Marble perform for us loads now, lastly in March and they always blow us away by their passion, raw intensity and stage presence, and their original songs are incredible! This new single “Redemption” is yet another milestone for them, a gorgeous tune, luscious guitarwork, powerful and commanding vocals, a perfect balance between the two and then it’s only accentuated even further by the dynamic and groove of the rhythm section. They’re serious songwriters too, always portraying emotions and feelings in an exciting, yet serious manner, they know how to really capture a listener’s attention with expert musicianship and lovely production throughout their music. Definitely ones to catch live!

our feature for today’s Just The Crust is the brand new single from Old Sun, New Moon – “Lay Your Burden Down“! ☀️
we’ve had them perform for us a bunch over the past few years, consisting of two of our favourite artists collaborating to create something really special – every time we’ve caught them live, they’ve been spellbinding! 💫
after their first few releases, they’ve come back to the first song that they performed live together – it’s a luscious track, and you can really hear the chemistry between Ethan and Tom; matching each other perfectly throughout the track, with a soft guitar melody and Tom’s rough vocal flowing superbly, and Ethan’s ambient tones lacing the track expertly – ebbing and flowing throughout, touching on elements of distortion and feedback, but being controlled so well throughout. Tom’s vocal sounds amazing here, and his songwriting capability is on full display with such intimate, raw and image-inducing lyricism 🤘
it’s a fantastic tune, and it’s available to listen to on all streaming platforms, and you can purchase it on Bandcamp at https://oldsunnewmoon.bandcamp.com/music – well worth a download. 🎶
