all over again – lyndo jaco
lyndo jaco captures classic rock spirit with a modern indie edge and undeniable melodic drive
all over again wastes literally no time in getting stuck in. a big drum roll, a driving guitar and we’ve also kind of hit the hook on the second line. i love that. vocally is where it impresses most, and it’s almost got a kind of cleaners from venus vibe which – as a huge fan – isn’t a comparison i make at all lightly.

quiet garden – garbage garden
garbage garden craft a beautifully haunting and restless banger that explores unseen presence in all the best ways
quiet garden captures your attention with a lovely piano flourish, before building into a wonderful, almost whispered vocal. it then grows into something you might not expect; blending hyperpop elements, sharp lyrical imagery, and big melodic hooks, contributing to a very modern, restless and immersive vibe. we really love finding unique stuff like this in our mystery musical postbox.
garbage garden approach songwriting with a conceptual focus, and this release marks the beginning of a wider series exploring existence and human connection. shaped through collaboration, the track expands from personal narrative into something more universal, examining themes of invisibility and emotional labour. but best of all, it’s genuinely stunning and we’re eagerly awaiting more.
thank u for making this garbage garden 🖤
