Neon Indian - Psychic Chasms

This is one is a bit off the line but I really like the synth compositions and the lo-fi-ness is definitely delish. Kinda like crossover between Daft Punk and Ariel Pink? You decide.

Blues Control - Puff

Blues Control is duo Lea Cho and Russ Waterhouse, plays a twisted blues in hazy, space world that exists between fuzzed distortion, jabbering electronics, and a lazy, stay-in-bed psychedelic glaze, with rhythmic keyboards pulsating below it all. Check this.

Tickley Feather - s/t

Tickley Feather is Annie Sachs. She grew up in rural Virginia but has been living in Philadelphia for 5 years now. She has been using her time learning to write and record her own music as part of her nights spent at home, adapting to being the single mother of a young child. Sachs is a four tracking hobbyist who's musical spirit dwells in the realm of her own natural inclinations. She is a firm believer in doing what feels right, and in her recordings she really uses her solo status to great advantage. It adds up a very personal sound which involves all sorts of sensations from serendipity to silliness, and even the sweet and eerie sound of her little boy's voice as he tells her his ideas. Her recordings have been praised by critics from the start, with comparisons to work by artists such as Syd Barrett, Kate Bush, and Gilli Smith, and all the while being given credit for having a sound that is completely its own. Now she's coming in from the outside to share her songs and it's precious beyond value. -Paw-Tracks

Karl Blau - Dance Positive

With a vibe that is both down-home and whimsical, Blau grafts parts of winsome folk-rock onto lazy jamming blues, vintage rocksteady reggae, high 70's soul harmonies, and ceremonial-sounding flutes in his unpredictable and shifting mixture of elements. FANTASTIC. srsly.

Pumice - Pebbles

Pumice is Stefan Geoffrey Neville from New Zealand who specializes in Lo-Fi psychedelic folk. This is his latest album. I like the mixture of scratchy sounds of the bambino organs and the harsh thundering 70's fuzz guitars. One of the best Lo-Fi gems in 2007. He's touring Japan right now btw.
