I'm on the verge of 100k views on Nonewwavenofun, considering I don't really advertise or promote it much, is not too shabby.

I started it as love letter to new music and although I don't always get the time, it will always remain that way.

First time I heard this song was this version. Nearly spat my tea out when I first sat down and listened to 'Low' a few years later!

I know a lot of us have feelings about Bandcamp’s changes in ownership over the last few years. But it’s still true that buying music directly from independent labels and artists on Bandcamp remains one of the best ways to support the musicians you listen to.
