Magic Man
Once again Arcade Sound Ltd doesn't disappoint with their latest discovery, Magic Man. This Knoxville based label is quickly becoming one of my faves.

Memoryhouse
With unfeigned lyrics and stunning instrumentation, this Canadian duo can easily be compared to other dreamy acts like Beach House. Memoryhouse released The Years EP this week as a free download and they have a 7-song cassette coming out this Spring on Arcade Sound Ltd, so be on the lookout for that one as well!
