The Subterranean Cumquat Lounge

A well meaning channel for the insightful and lost.

In the virgin days of the internet (circa 2004), an international group of freaks used to bounce new music off each other on the early platform of Last FM (before they sold out). To bring all opinions & nationalities together a 'lounge was formed'. The aim? To share groovy little indie gems to dance to without the efforts of having to spend hours finding them yourself. Our attentions shifted to this new thing called 'YouTube' . Some bands featured are now all but 'missing in action', 'deleted' or have simply been abandoned. Videos chosen tend to be random or emanating from CD's handed on buses, at gigs, or surrendered via email. It’s never been about the likes or followers. Its simply about the music. Find your own hidden gem and covet it, play it , love it.

The channel's genre is typically within the "indie" realms, with exceptions. The imagery is 'borrowed' mostly to get the tune out there. We don't apologize. Enjoy!
