I came across Rose Quartz whilst looking for more information on the (at the time) forthcoming ES, Chris Forsyth and Ignatz tour which I found alongside some brilliant samples from all the artists involved. Whilst a fair chunk of the site is given over to psychedelic/experimental noise the Rose Quartz team generally cover a wide spectrum of music alongside vivid, informative but stil concise descriptions of each artists and links to their labels/distros.
There are also links to pictures of the various events covered by the transatlantic Rose Quartz team including recent(ish) tours by Pocahaunted and Jackie-O and links to a quarterly Rose Quartz mix which last time featured new and old music by a variety of artists including Nico, Heather Woods Broderick and Washed Out it's definitely worth the download.
They've also been fortunate enough to grab interviews with artists such as surf noise maestro Wavves and the electricity shunning Foot Village and links to all these of can be found on their front page which is handy.
Picking a favourite artist from the front page is difficult but if forced I'd probably go with the blissed out guitar based ambiance of Kevin Greenspon.
