Midnight Gems -Your Free Mix-Tape Show - E 47 "Visiting some old lady friends"

Tonight I found an old girlfriend, a lady whose sadness has kept me company for many years.
I keep forgetting her and then she pops up again, like a long-lost love.

I can only tell you to check out this lovely album and befriend her,

Sara Love - Papa Was A Rodeo

This song has a bit of a load because someone is leaving soon and may be back in a year for now, but my life was Rodeo in the past and might be again in the future.

And somehow Sara will always be connected to Polly and this awesome album

Polly Scattergood - Nitrogen Pink

NewDad, was indeed new to me but the Mazzy Star vs London Grammar feel caught my mind from the start. So I will keep an out for this new daddy-

NewDad - White Ribbons

Another newfound gem is this one, as you know I am a sucker for sweaty summer night synths and this is just that. Drifting away never felt this good.

NIGHT TAPES - DRIFTING

Night Tapes was such a nice light bridge to a bit darker synth sounds, not too much but just enough, and that voice, omg I am sold from the moment she opens her mouth.

Madeline Goldstein - Seed of Doubt

Kim Gordon - "BYE BYE"

Of course, we will go a little darker, a little weirder, with these guys what gems did I find on their page they are really diverse but this one spoke to me right away.

SUMMER ALONE - heartbreak in nyc

You knew that I did not mean that about the new normal, we take the weirdness to the max tonight. At least for one more song.... but to give the girls a break let's play this wunderbar wonderboy.

Vundabar - "Alien Blues"

Okay, time to come down of our cloud of weirdness and start grounding a bit and I just know who can help us out.

björk ft. rosalía : oral

What the Bjôrk, how can she still look so good what is there in those vulcanic baths in Iceland, I mean she is no longer a Sugarcube but still-

Encore

And she reminds me of a modern-time Bjork I think I played her once before but here is another Lola...ehh Gem.

Lola Young - Annabel's House

Riddle Me This

Guess What, my riddle has been solved. You are too late to make an easy dollar, better luck next time!

What the fluff is Midnight Gems?

Somewhere lost in time, trying to escape out of the rabbit hole back into the rat race there is a vacuum..... that´s the place where midnight gems are found.

My Midnight Gems will try to uncover & recover those beautiful songs that nobody ever noticed or might have been forgotten.

Who the fluff am I?

Being a former DJ playing about everything and having an uncompleted study of radio journalism. I have been wanting to do this for years...Thought about it many nights and guess now it´s time to finally take it to the streets.

Hope you enjoyed this well-known wave of fantastic music and that you still feel like joining me on the next Midnight Gems Session coming soon.
