Happy Bandcamp Friday!

We've never done a sale before. Doing a sale makes me feel a little icky truth be told, but for today only, you can get 25 percent off all releases over at our EMOTIONAL RESPONSE site (except "Seaside Riot") by adding the discount code "25" on check out.

(If you buy a a few physical things we'll also chuck in some extras)

Also, if you're not aware, we've been quietly adding several new (older) Boyracer releases, all pay what ya want.
The latest delicious Bandcamp Friday offering is "Live At Staches, Columbus Ohio, 1996" - in its unedited entirety featuring 10 extra tracks not on the original vinyl release. Its bonkers good!

Delighted to be included as part of this excellent Indie institution that is "Pop Songs Your New Boyfriend's Too Stupid to Know About

We’re counting down to our new show this Friday (Feb 21)!

Our guest this week is Stewart Anderson from Boyracer. Stewart has been releasing super-catchy, jangly, shambolic low-fi indie pop for over 35 years now. Boyracer has released records on countless indie labels including: Sarah Records, Slumberland, Wurlitzer Jukebox, A Turntable Friend, Jigsaw, Happy Happy Birthday to Me and more.

Stewart ran his own 555 label until the early 2000s, and then he started Emotional Response Records - a record label that surfaces impeccable punk and pop and bands that should be huge.

Stewart will join us to share one of his favorite obscure song picks and tell us why he loves it so. We are overjoyed to have Stewart on the show this week!

Tune in on Friday night to hear all about it. The show airs on SPACE 101.1 FM every FRIDAY from 9p-10p PST on 101.1 fm (in Seattle) and online at www.space101fm.org. You can also listen via your smart speaker by asking it to “Play KMGP!

We’ll post the episode on Mixcloud archive after it airs. You can listen there {for free} anytime! https://www.mixcloud.com/PopSongsMixtape/

..."pays homage to Boyracer’s noise-pop past, while making room for a fuller palette. 33 years on, the band still feels fresh, mining pop’s enduring spirit while serving as a guiding light for the current class of jangle-pop" Thanks .bsky.social

Boyracer by Andy List season may be upon us, but there’s still work to do and a ton of releases to put on the speakers. Legacy janglers Boyracer return with their fifteenth LP, a breezy, buoyant LP that proves the band are better than ever. Still anchored by the effervescent songwriting of Stewart...

“What a feeling to have found you here”, cantano i giovani Glazyhaze nel loro nuovo singolo qui in scaletta. In effetti, ogni volta è una emozionante sorpresa scoprire che c’è qualcuno ancora qui, …

"Seaside Riot is a straight-up win for the band, showing how they’ve grown without losing that raw rock energy we all dig. The tunes are beautiful as hell, the lyrics hit home.... If you’re into perfect indie pop, you’ve got to give this a spin."
Another awesome review for our latest LP over at Buzzy Band

"Who would’ve guessed that one of 2024’s best indie pop albums would come from a band that’s been going strong for 30 years? But then you press play on Seaside Riot, and it’s clear: this is Boyracer at their absolute best, and we’d be remiss not to tell you all about it. " Great review for the new Boyracer over at Add To Wantlist https://addtowantlist.com/?fbclid=IwZXh0bgNhZW0CMTAAAR0_qezQ6a8IQkEJpzGfHVP9Ov7DbXbKdzpjQsFvz7acBnPynxyaM0B8Xpc_aem_1w2GLPfBNQw2v_hhTHsgsw
