new Magic Places - Melodrama EP


Magic Places sent over his new Melodrama EP at the absolute perfect time.  With the final space shuttle mission in progress, many are focused on celestial travel, which is perhaps the defining theme of Magic Places' epic electronic soundscapes.  It's the first thing I think of whenever I listen to his music, anyway.  That I received the EP on a night when I had no electricity in my apartment and had to listen in the soft candescence of moonlight was a coincidence that was only too fitting.  Like The Time-Traveler's Pocket Guidebook album and 2071 EP before it, the Melodrama EP is another blissful breeze through the land of 80s nostalgia on the back of Falkor, the luck dragon.  Fans of bygone era-beats and shimmering synth pop have got to get on board.  Stream three songs below; grab the whole thing here.

Galway - Sunrise 1991 EP


Galway's Sunrise 1991 EP has been on endless repeat ever since I heard it on the infinitely-inspiring Flashlight Tag last week.  The Moscow four-piece makes eighties-imbued dream pop, complete with jangly guitars and melodically bubbling synth tones.  Fans of Wild Nothing should be onboard with no hesitation whatsoever.  Preview "Air #3" and "Each of us loves space tears" below; grab the title track at Galway's bandcamp.
