May 2023 Discoveries.

Many people simply want to hear and enjoy some great new music without having to waste time searching for hours. These Musical Discoveries collections aim to fulfil those needs. At least, we hope so! :)

This playlist is a compilation of the favourite musical discoveries of the Wud Records team from everything they heard at SoundCloud during May 2023.

Tracks have been arranged according to the number of plays at the precise moment of publishing, starting with the fewest. Tracks that are early in playlists tend to receive more plays than later tracks, and we feel that the ones with fewer plays need the best chance of exposure.

This playlist is extremely eclectic, so if the track you are playing isn't quite doing it for you, try the next one. It will probably be completely different.

If you enjoyed listening to something here, please give it a like and a repost. Follow the artist. Give them a shoutout on social media. Check out some of their other tracks. Buy something from them and your support will help them to keep going. Doing any of this will help raise their profile. At the very least you might make their day. :)

Sharing is very, very important !!

Sharing is a massive help for independent artists. They don’t have big corporations and mainstream media saturating every channel with their product. Every independent share counts.

Giving something a ‘like’ is nice, but sharing exposes the artist to your followers. This means that anybody in your community can see and click on what you shared. They can potentially enjoy it as well. It enables somebody new to discover the artist and become their newest fan. You create the chance for that to happen.

If you happen to be on this playlist, please share, and give us a shoutout on your social media feeds - because if we spot it, it gives us another opportunity to repost you and big you up. Please listen to as many tracks by the other great bands as you can - at least the one before yours, yours, and the one after yours to hear how you stack up - and... enjoy!

I'm Gonna Win

This sucks

Judy’s coming back from work
the world keeps spinning fast but she breaks through
cause’ after all it's never too late,
one day luck will smile to her, she knows

Now the sunshine is gone
leaves fall from the trees
but then once more
it's just a rainy day
so, she stays

All along the boulevard
the streetlights take her back to where she came from
once there again it’s 9 o’clock
feels warm, but it doesn't feel like home

And now the days turn into years
Whatever comes, man, it must be sweet
But what a funny feeling
That comes instead
As she hits the highway
as she dies

well, it can’t get worse
At least that’s what it seems
As she takes the bus
With her one-way ticket to nowhere
now she's there
she stays
she stays
she...

Judy's (The Folk Song) - Demo v1

I know my songs are terrible, but this time I got over myself

Lyrics:

And if it makes you feel alright
and if it makes you feel alive
and if it makes you feel like you belong
I guess you’d say you found what you were looking for

And if the sparks shine too bright,
If every night space and time
just fade away as you see the stars
lying in who knows whose arms

Oh, It took me a while to being aware
at this point there’s no return 
So don’t come back, we're not that mad
or are we?

So this time I just don't want to know
This time I'm sure, I don't want to know
I think I have seen enough
I've already seen enough
for a lifetime, two or more
so in the morning, I'll be gone

Making more distance
not a glance, you locked the door
you're miles away now
you're miles away now

Just keep your distance
take a deep breath and walk 
I'm miles away now
I'm miles away now


And the grass is always greener on the other side
and the high you go is how hard you eventually fall
but how can you fall living underground?
I’d like someone to make me understand
Because it seems this time I'm going straight 
to the...

void

LETRA:
Y si te hace sentir bien
y si te hace sentir viva
y si te hace sentir que perteneces
Supongo que dirías que encontraste lo que estabas buscando

Y si las chispas brillan demasiado,
Si cada noche el espacio y el tiempo
se desvanecen mientras ves las estrellas
Acostada en quién sabe los brazos de quién

Oh, me tomó un tiempo darme cuenta
en este punto no hay retorno
Así que no vuelvas, no estamos tan locos
¿o lo estamos?

Así que esta vez no quiero saber
Esta vez estoy seguro, no quiero saber
Creo que he visto suficiente
ya he visto suficiente
para toda una vida, dos o más
así que por la mañana, me habré ido

Haciendo más distancia
ni una mirada, cerraste la puerta
estás a millas de distancia ahora
estás a millas de distancia ahora

Solo mantén tu distancia
respira hondo y camina
Estoy a millas de distancia ahora
Estoy a millas de distancia ahora


Y la hierba siempre es más verde del otro lado
y lo alto que llegas es lo fuerte que eventualmente caes
pero ¿Cómo puedes caer viviendo bajo tierra?
quisiera que alguien me hiciera entender
Porque parece que esta vez voy directo
hacia el...

vacío

GRASS - Unfinished Outtake

RAINY DAY (RUFF instrumental)

Verse 1:
It’s Sunday morning and I feel fine
What could go wrong today?
The sun shines and everything looks good outside
Just the perfect scene to throw it all away

Chorus 1:
Oh sweet nothing
I’ve waited way too long
But here’s that noise again
And then I find myself worrying too much

Verse 2:
And now the hours rain like knives all around
Stabbing into my brain
I catch my breath but that shit ain’t worked in a while
I ain’t moved an inch yet I’m closer to the edge

Chorus 2:
Oh sweet nothing
Looks like simplest thought
It’s a fucking headache

Bridge:
Just when I find
That I wasn’t thinking of you
but that isn’t something new

Verse 3:
“It’s Sunday morning and I feel fine” 
The strangest line to say
The sun shines but it never does on this side  
Well, I think at least we’re reaching to the end

Outro:
But then I find myself worrying too much

Sunday (2023)

[Verse]
Your lucky break 
fading to grey
Too much to take,
And now it’s gone
It got you on your knees
And still, you break (your back)
Just to pretend (you’re back)

[Pre-Chorus]
So, Is this the way?
Is this the way future’s meant to feel?

[Chorus]
Cause’ today I’m not so sure
Cause’ today I’m not so sure
Yes, today I’m not so sure

[Verse]
Your lucky break
Is now fading to grey
As zeros grow in your account
But in the wrong direction
And all over the place (this town)
This town is frozen (online) 

[Pre-Chorus]
No one to blame
So, don’t look at me

[Chorus]
Cause’ today I’m not so sure
Cause’ today I’m not so sure
Yes, today I’m not so sure

[Bridge]
So, what’s the use in trying
When you could leave it all behind?
No use in trying trying trying trying 

[Chorus]
Cause’ today I’m not so sure
Cause’ today I’m not so sure
Yes, today I’m not so sure
Cause’ today I’m not so sure
Cause’ today I’m not so sure
Yes, today I’m not so sure

Not So Sure

This time

LYRICS

warm girl
I could do with your silence 
before I burn myself out 
peeling layers to the bone
surreal world 
where people are islands 
there must be some connection 
there must be somewhere I can go
somewhere natural
gonna find myself again
not sure who he is (or where he went)
they’re all so sociable 
but when you break open the shell
nothing oozes out

come and find me 
can’t you see where I am?
I pray for silence 
but I can’t keep my mouth shut 
no I can’t make my mind up

make me a boy again 
now I only seem
to long for the old days 
hoping it goes my way
but it only goes downhill

warm girl 
you’re free (as the sky is)
to overlay my senses 
free to leave such things alone
truth hurts
it’ll sting you for life, babe
carry on regardless 
but I can’t keep this to myself 
and is it any wonder? 
this may well have never been
but I’m here now,
so might as well

come and find me 
can’t you see who I am?
yeah I pray for silence 
but I can’t keep my mouth shut 
no, I can’t make my life work



J'aime les fleurs de la ville
Ca me rappelle la maison
Quand je ne sais pas ou aller

On tend vers la lumiere
Comme le font les fleurs
J'aimerais pouvoir te montrer
J'aimerais pouvoir montrer a tout le monde


(I love the flowers of the city
they remind me of home
when I don't know where to go 
we grow towards the light
just like the flowers do
I wish I could show you why 
I wish I could show everyone)

Warm Girl

* For DIY musicians:

Looking to grow your fanbase? Here's a proven strategy for success. It's a bit time-consuming at first because you need to work at it often. However, the awesome results will make it worth your while:

http://www.wudrecords.co.uk/miscellaneous/be-discovered-on-social-media

That article was published in March 2017. While some of the links may no longer work, the theory absolutely will. Try it for yourself!

* Unfortunately...

Due to brexshit, broken britain, rip-off britain, corruption, lies and bias in the media, bigotry, racism, intolerance, polarisation, the fact that some of our family members would not be allowed to remain post-brexit, state-sponsored child trafficking (yes, that's right, we said it - it's pretty shocking, start reading from here if you don't believe it: https://forced-adoption.com/), an increasing sense of frustration and exasperation, and general total weariness of being treated with nothing but derision, ignorance and contempt by the entire shebang since the early 80s, we decided enough was enough and moved our entire operation from brexeter in the uk to begin our grand brexodus in 2017. We are now brefugees, living in brexile very near the border of the Czech Republic, Austria and Germany. If you live in (the crumbling remains of) the uk, do yourself a favour and leave. The upgrade in life quality will blow your mind.

* What do we stand for as a label?

We support all independent musicians who are doing something we find interesting. Our team members all have formal music education qualifications.

We are against corporate brainwash muzak, their puppet friends in the mass media, and many other corporate activities. We will fight their desecration of music until either it stops or we die. 

We believe in helping others in the face of corrupt laws and a broken system. We are pro democracy, green energy and free speech.

We're politically liberal. We cannot support the republicans, maga or gun violence in the usa. We don't see there's any real difference, other than in name, between the christian far right in the USA and the taliban in Afghanistan.

In the uk we are broadly pro LibDem/Green/Labour/SNP. We are VERY anti-tory, bnp, ukip, and any of their friends and associates. We have no trust at all in the uk right wing press monopoly and the bbc. Beware the bbc and its claims of neutrality. It is the propaganda mouthpiece of the tory party. It even charges a propaganda tax called the licence fee. But we like Test Match Special and Radio 6, so does that make us hypocrites...? Hmm.

We support independence for Scotland, Wales, Northern Ireland and Cornwall. We support the individual and the underdog. We are anti-putin and his war, and pro-Ukraine.

Please notice the careful use of capitals. Capital letters imply respect!

We're only interested in the colour of your soul. Not your skin, hair or socks.

We like cricket! Most of us support Somerset County Cricket Club.
