Bandcamp Friday was initiated in March 2020, when Bandcamp waived their revenue share in order to help artists and labels impacted by the pandemic.
The initiative is still ongoing and for this month’s Bandcamp Friday we would like to shout about the latest releases from our residents.
Joey T and Levi Love are back with another set of cut-ups and reworks. 80s Synth Pop meets Funk in this Housey re-work of ‘Linked With Wolfsburg’. Funky basslines, tin-like drums and summery synths fill up the track, showing how eclectic the two are as musicians when paired together.

Imaginary Part’s remix of ‘Billy Bogus & Federico Bologna – Yor’ is available to purchase now on the Italian record label Screaming Cockatiel Records.
Brilliantly atmospheric and Ambient, this rendition of ‘Yor’ explores versatility through the use of ominous synth slurs and looming percussive patterns.
FRONT & FOLLOW / GATED COMMUNITY
Front & Follow and the Gated Canal Community present ‘RENTAL YIELDS’ – a multi-release collaboration project raising money to tackle homelessness in Manchester.
Inspired by our current housing system, the project encourages artists to steal (or borrow, nicely) from other artists to create their own tracks.
New one ‘The Singles Club’ from Mali Hayes released on Band On The Wall Recordings.
Side A opens with ‘Forgive You’, a wonderfully warm, fuzzy, composition of Neo-Soul. Gliding into the blissful acoustic guitar of Side B with ‘Come Closer’.
