Timecop198’s Waves EP is a study of the 80’s music and how it has withstood time and emerging music genres to remain steadfast as ever. Dreamy synths, syrupy beats and steady pulse are enveloped in this five-track EP from this outstanding talent hailing from Netherlands.
Dan Mayes is an Aussie singer/songwriter that has a great way with indie folk pop songs. Lemonade & Cigarettes is the artists' latest offering since his initial debut solo record, Press Random, back in 2006.
This new album was released early this year (2012) and features 11 singles available at a name-your-price option at BandCamp.
Combining his love for slower, folkish pop and indie rock music, the album echoes with beautiful melodies and charming pop sounds. It's hard to imagine Mayes as a bassist for a full-on rock band after listening to this.

Italian netlabel, La Bel is only two years old but it's introducing great new talent to the world of indie folk music.

On their site, they describe the label as one that loves "the sound of footsteps on the snow, internet & technology, the spring, the sun on the face, listen to music before falling asleep, (or) being alone in the middle of the night."
