But of the Indie collections released in the last few years, New Arrivals Vol. 4 - Artists Against Youth Homelessness has to be rated among the best for both songs and selection of artists. So if you're looking for an opportunity to learn about some wonderful up-and-coming Indie artists and support a good cause in the process, New Arrivals Vol. 4 - Artists Against Youth Homelessness comes highly recommended."

The New Arrivals charity compilation series continues to showcase both established and indie artists. Launched in 2006 by MPress Records president Rachael Sage (an acclaimed art-pop singer-songwriter who has also contributed a track to NAV4,) each CD has benefitted a different charity: Volume 1 benefitted Gulf Coast Hurricane Relief, Volume 2 benefitted World Hunger Year, and Volume 3 benefitted NEDA (National Eating Disorder Association).? With regards to the upcoming Volume 4, Sage comments: "It's definitely our best lineup yet, it's a great cause, and we want to do it justice."
