Did you miss us?
Back in 2019, Drowned in Sound hit pause and archived this site.
In the meantime, our community has remained active here here.
But we've made a return, that's a little different than before.
You can keep up to date with what we're doing by signing up to our free Substack newsletter.
What's New?
We're calling a the new era of Drowned in Sound an "audio publication" because it's a magazine-style podcast, with a singles club on our independent label, which acts a bit like a magazine cover mount.
The Podcast
Our podcast was originally launched back in 2005 and won a few awards, so it's really exciting to finally reboot it. You'll find season one of the podcast wherever you get your podcasts (Spotify | Apple | Etc.), looking at the foundations and future of the music industry, speaking to a range of experts.
The Independent Label
Our singles club previously launched the careers of a range of artists including Bat for Lashes, Kaiser Chiefs, Emmy the Great, Martha Wainwright and more.
The 2023 edition of the club kicked off with Faith Vern from DiS-favourites PINS, under the guise of The Faux Faux, with the menacing, smokey, 'Cold Hearted Woman'.
