His latest album Horribles Parade is great. And I totally agree with you about Nite Jewel. She had the whole chillwave thing going way before Pitchfork blew up Neon Indian and Washed Out and the blogs went nuts for the sound. Her sound was totally in place with her first release on Italians Do It Better early in 2008. I would also credit Memory Tapes for being there very early too with his early Weird Tapes releases in 2008. I found it rather interesting and funny that a genre basically spawned itself out of Ariel Pink's sound. Wonder if his new music on 4AD will get him the credit he is due?

Pretty great. Or probably just start with <i>Worn Copy</i> if you wanna go legit.
