Vinyl LP pressing. 2011 release from Ducktails, the one-man Psychedelic Pop project of Matthew Mondanile, guitarist for New Jersey's Real Estate and, more importantly, a proud son of the mid-1980s. At 22 years old, he started releasing his own cassette albums. His first seven inch came out on Breaking World Records and was followed by a string of LPs, cassettes, and CDs on independent labels like Not Not Fun, Olde English Spelling Bee, Release the Bats, Arbor and Goaty Tapes. Now surrounded by a crew of young songwriters, Mondanile spends his time either touring or recording in the basement of his parent's house. Categorized by David Keenan as part of the "hypnagogic pop" movement, Ducktails realizes a shared cultural memory and nostalgia through various genres. Ducktails III: Arcade Dynamics is Mondanile's third official full-length LP and first for Woodsist Records.

Not groundbreaking, but fans of Real Estate will be pleased
Obviously comparisons will be made as Matt Mondanile is a guitarist for the aforementioned band so fans of that warm indie surf rock sound will feel right at home.

A wonderful record for relaxing on a warm summer day
While this album is far from a masterpiece, that's part of its charm. It merely aims to hang out with you. To relax and share some quality moments. If you can respect that, then Arcade Dynamics is right for you.
