The Alternative Music Playlist #43

The Very Best in New Alternative Music

August 2023 - January 2024

theheadscratcher.com

Let’s be honest. It’s been a bit of a ghost town around here of late. We haven’t uploaded a new playlist or podcast for quite some time, and that’s putting it mildly. But! Good things come to those who wait, and we’ve got over THIRTEEN HOURS of music to keep you going throughout January and beyond.

As always, it’s a mixed bag… a mixed bag of delight! The Alternative Music Playlist #43 is eccentrically curated and whittled down from over 130 hours of music (a practically insanity-inducing task btw). Expect some of the best in rap, metal, dance, indie, ambient, alternative rock and everything in between. There’s a sprinkling of madness in there too, just for good measure.

Get your lugs round it on the embedded player or your favourite streaming service via the links below.

Don’t forget to follow The Alternative Music Playlist, share it, slap it on shuffle, tag us on the socials with your favourite tracks and remember to send the artists plenty of love!

Thanks to FiftySeven design (@fiftysevendesign) for the cover art, snapped somewhere near Brick Lane, London.
