'Coal Dust' by Rum Jungle

 


From the album 'Marginalla' released 5 June, 2026.

And it works!

Getting extremely pissed off with the near impossibility of searching for new releases on Spotify by genre, and above all, country (or anywhere else), I got Claude AI to build a 'New Music Discovery' app, running as a local script only on my PC.

The search criteria, for now, is Indie, Indie Rock, Alt Rock and Surf Rock only in Australia and New Zealand. And anyway the best Indie comes out those places, so why not.

But really, why only those countries? Technically it's much easier to severely limit the AI search terms, mainly to avoid finding the same new 'world' releases that everyone finds.

Coal Dust currently has the most plays on Spotify, although my favourite off this album is 'Lowlife'.

So in the spirit of feeling grateful that yes, some things AI really do work, 'Lowlife' has it's very own post.

Nearly forgot: see band details in the next post - ha!
