This Friday's Playlist focuses on a particular time and place, namely Manchester in the early nineties. Inspired by New Order and similar artists that blended psychedelic pop and electronica, the artists in this Playlist created this specific idiom that is informed equally by rock and rave culture.
Not all of these bands came out of Manchester, and not all of the songs were released in the early nineties but those are the time and place that sound is associated with.
In contrast to last Friday's Playlist, this selection is rather short and is a good companion to the Britpop one we published in August 2019.
