Bravestation: EP

Valerie
Even though new wave has somewhat taken its course, occasionally there are bands that transform this standard genre into something so much more. Bravestation is one of those bands. Taking the typical new wave/hipster sound and weaving it together with lush melodies and colorful instruments. The band is from Toronto and this EP serves as their debut compilation. It came out back in 2010 and has been praised for their distinctively likable sound.

Pinball Classic

Frostech
Pinball has always been considered to be a fun, addictive, intuitive arcade classic that refuses to go out of style. Years later and here it is again on the new age smartphone. Pinball Classic is very true to the name and old-school fans will appreciate the fact that the developer has not tinkered a lot with the game's layout. Developed by Terran Droid, the same people who have the top rated game Pool Master Pro in their kitty, Pinball Classic in a similar way does not let down.

Open Movie Editor

Frostech
If you are into video-editing and are always hunting for an open-source, full-fledged video-editor, then your search ends here. Open Movie Editor is the way to go for amateur to semi-pro video editing needs. The Open video-editor has a large number of developers and is supported by a huge community of artists and indie project developers. The biggest downside of this capable software would be that it is only Linux compatible and does not support the use of operational systems.

Wacky Southern Current: In a Realm of Uncertain Summer

Valerie
Wacky Southern Current is a compilation of 9 tracks that herald a beautiful post rock feel. This time around, the artist returns to No-Source netlabel for releasing their second album, In a Realm of Uncertain Summer. The title is a bit misleading since the tracks are neither wacky nor completely Southern, in fact, it's a set of melodic, acoustic post rock that serves as a the ideal mood setter for your quiet moments. Made up of Marco Cervellin, the Italian instrumentalist manages to balance a range of genres in one relaxing record. This is slightly different from his first release, but it still captures fleeting emotions to a tee.

Push: Entanglement EP

Monica
Push seems determined to give a taste of the best in their latest musical venture, Entanglement. With a decade of experience, the four-piece band of John Scarpelli, Scott Simon, Bill Roberts and Andy Bautista emerges in the Chicago music scene with a bang. Their 2012 EP offers six-tracks that drench the band’s sound in buckets of grinding synth, bass guitar, and vibraphone. N Definitum opens up with a healthy dose of stingy electric guitars and soft rock grooves. Polished vocals and clever instrumentation showcase the band’s professionalism and experience.

Hourglass Sea: Return to the Crematorium

Monica
Hourglass Sea’s 2011 release, Return to the Crematorium, touches our deepest emotions building it into pure musical bliss. Hailing from Bradford, Britain, Dean Bentley better known as Hourglass Sea offers eight superb tracks that’s hypnotically relaxing but at the same time demands you not to fall asleep. A key-player in this album is its artistic freedom that focuses more about the instruments rather than other aspects. There are not many albums that can successfully pull this off but Hourglass Sea is one-of-a-kind.
