Songbroker Playlist: Dunedin Sound

After last weekend’s Flying Nun 40 year anniversary concert, Songbroker thought it fitting to continue with the theme with an updated Dunedin Sound Playlist.

According to Wikipedia, "the Dunedin Sound uses "jingly jangly" guitar-playing, minimal bass lines and loose drumming. Keyboards are also often prevalent. Primitive recording techniques also gave this genre a lo-fi sound that endeared its earnest music, but occasionally hard-to-understand vocal accompaniment, to university students worldwide."

Songbroker’s Dunedin Sound Playlist features integral contributors to the Dunedin Sound, including The Verlaines, The Clean, David Kilgour, Look Blue Go Purple, Cassandra's Ears plus Jay Clarkson, Francisca Griffin, Jan Hellriegel, The Prophet Hens, Certainty, Grawlixes, The Roulettes, Dribbling Darts of Love, Golden Curtain and Grand Prix.
