I continued exploring recent releases from Alvvays, The Orielles, PVA, Dry Cleaning, The 1975, Daphni, Broken Bells and Alex G on the show this week, while the retro alternative set journeyed back to the early ’80s for another block of excellent synthpop and New Wave obscurities from across the globe.
