FREE 200+ Song DIGITAL ISOLATION COMPILATION


NO GIGS DOES NOT HAVE TO MEAN NO MUSIC
The ultimate ‘mixtape’ to help get you through Covid-19 isolation.

We wanted to put something out there to share some love at the moment, to give a bit of an escape to everyone in this absolutely bizarre time that we all find ourselves in.

So here it is! A 100% free compilation with just over 200 songs! All the tracks have been donated and used with permission. If you dig a song, please check out the band, ‘Like’ their Facebook page, let them know and share the love with others.

There are songs crossing all sorts of genres including psych, fuzz, stoner, grunge, doom, sludge, punk, hardcore, grind, death, thrash, heavy rock, garage, a few acoustic tracks for good measure, and more.

Massive thanx to all the bands involved, as well as a few others that have helped reach out to bands they work with and do amazing things in the industry, including:

    Chris Maric (Maric Media)
