Desert soul.

Thanks to the impeccable folks over at Double Denim for guiding the way to Old Arc, an apparently seriously fresh duo from Santa Cruz, California. We can't even decide which of the five songs from their self-titled EP we like most, all are sample heavy synth monsters with the right amount of psych and soul and experimental extravaganza to keep us listening over and over, so here are only two of them, but make sure you grab the splendid rest of their debut over at bandcamp.

Old Arc - Chief of Sun

Old Arc - Merchant Cross
