We dedicate the Weekend Showcase 4.43 edition to Zac Denton of The Ocean Party. On Wednesday, the 24-year old unexpectedly passed away. For those who do not know who Denton or The Ocean Party are, they are one of Melbourne’s most outstanding indie bands with a sound reminiscent of Silver Jews and Spiritualized. They are also one of Australia’s most prolific groups with six (soon to be seven) albums and three EPs to their name in less than six years. Denton was the band’s drummer and one of its principal songwriters, and his passing is a loss to not just to those Down Under but for everyone who loves great music. You can read more about what happened on The Ocean Party’s Facebook page.
Forty-six songs make up today’s mega-playlist. Thirteen countries are represented, including: Australia, Belgium, Canada, Colombia, England, France, Iceland, Netherlands, Norway, Scotland, Sweden, the United States, and Wales.
The playlist and tracklisting, as usual, follows the list of articles from the past week. The SoundCloud version has all the songs, although some may require a GO account, while the Spotify playlist has 44 songs.
