R.M.F.C. – Ecstatic Strife / Golden Trick
Following a handful of singles and EP’s, Australia’s R.M.F.C. finally released a full length album at the end of 2023. Although ‘Club Hits’ didn’t feature as much raw sounding material as ‘Television’ (a highlight from 2018’s ‘Hive’), its collection of short and sharp workouts made for great listening.
Listen: Spectral share new track ‘Falling’

Watch: Emo crew downcast cover Backstreet Boys in new video clip
There’s going to be new, original music from downcast soon, but in the meantime, the Bristolian emo crew have put their own stamp on a familiar piece of pop to get their fans in the mood.

THE REAL GONE SINGLES BAR #120
This visit to the Real Gone Singles Bar sees the return of three familiar names, but their current tunes find the musicians sounding as good as ever. There’s always a pleasure in watching artists you admire grow, but in the case of singer songwriter Roisin McCarney, the Scottish singer shares one of her most mature sounding tracks to date. In terms of newer names, you’ll find a genre-bending act from Margate sharing an absolute banger, a couple of underground singer-songwriters, and even a perfectly pitched piece of early 60s inspired, guitar laden pop from Australia. As always, it’s been an absolute pleasure to pick the best singles for sharing, and we hope you find something new to enjoy.
