tal castle bed, Clarion, Internet Cafe and aLex vs aLex lead this week's New Music Discovery playlist
Our weekly playlist of brand new music from the last seven days by under-the radar artists hand-picked by our editors, staff and writers.
Every week we're scouring our collective inboxes and brains alongside a vast network of friends and contacts to create a new music playlist for people like us.
With most Friday playlist updates dominated by the same big songs and returning names, we're always trying to go way beyond that to find the exciting new artists taking their first steps who we think will do amazing things. If you like any of the artists, head to their bandcamp and throw them a few bucks, buy a T-shirt or record, and follow them on Instagram.
Follow New Music Discovery on Spotify to listen in full.
