You hate it or love it - but there is no in between when it comes to straight forward bubblegum pop bangers. Sugar candy for your ears and feet, those kind of songs are loud and filled with positive power. Lyrics can explore the wide and mostly difficult world of love, dreams or celebrating yourself.
The Corona pandemic is a tough time for all of us but for artists and musicians especially. With the concert sector forced to shut down, new sources of income are crucial for them in order to survive. Buying a record can help here, even if it's just a digital purchase, but that's obviously more effective than streaming it on Spotify. Today, on May 1st Bandcamp has decided to waive its cut of sales again, giving all proceeds to the artists. The first time they did that they raised over $4 million so let's do this again. Here, the NBHAP staff presents some of their personal recommendations. Feel kindly invited to give as much as you can.
