Listen to the first single from the upcoming Truth or Consequences album.

Absolutely worth checking out if you’ve ever found yourself pining for the “classic” 4AD sound.

On this rework of their 1994 debut, the Japanese band delivers a truly mercurial take on shoegaze rock.

The Chicago trio’s shadowy post-rock is hypnotic, meandering, and consistently captivating.

The perfect soundtrack for experiencing a world covered in newly fallen snow.

Darkly pulsing synthwave channeled from the shadowy recesses of the ’80s.

The synthwave maestro is joined by one of American music’s most distinctive voices.

Seriously, what is it with Arizona and fuzz-laden shoegaze/dreampop par excellence?

The Costa Rican dreampop band is the latest member of the Velvet Blue Music family.

26 songs that provided me with moments of beauty, serenity, hope — and yes, maybe even a little fun.

The Paris-based dreampop outfit has released a music video for their new single.

Duncan Sumpner returns with another album of softly psyched-out folk music.

The noted ambient composer and pianist collaborated with the likes of Brian Eno, John Foxx, and Robin Guthrie.

Serene-yet-surreal electronic music inspired by “the light and space” of Canada’s national art museum.

Who knew nonsensical theology made for such awesome breakdowns?

Each one of Japan’s train stations has its own unique — and charming — jingle.

The enigmatic Swedish artist’s debut album is dark, shadowy, and veiled, the perfect music for long, lonely winter nights.

In a more perfect and just world, hushed and heartfelt folk-rock like this would earn all the likes and favorites.

The cover of this funk classic is Khruangbin at their Khruangbin-iest.

Now it’s even easier to buy music from awesome artists like Lee Bozeman, Fine China, LN, Map, and Starflyer 59.
