Ray And His Court
Latin funk at its finest. A kingpin player of Miami’s Cuban music scene, Ray Fernandez, brought together his ‘court’ for this sensational Afro-Cuban funk triumph. Largely a family affair, the album features his wife, two sons and a range of other talented musicians including Rickey Washington on saxophone, father of the contemporary jazz maestro Kamasi Washington. Originally released in 1973 on Manuel J. Mato’s iconic and collectible Sound Triangle Records, Ray & His Court is a dose of Miami hea…

Commenti Musicali: Thrilling Vol.2 presents a mosaic of Italian library music at its most eccentric: electronic soundscapes, krautrock inflections, and ambient dread.

Notes from the nave
*100 copies limited edition* Notes from the nave is the debut album by 𝗟𝗶𝗻𝗱𝗲𝗻 𝗦. - Michiel Dondeyne’s alter ego. It’s a musical correspondence from the refuge of an introvert: the ‘nave’ - or the middle part - of a church in Antwerp, Belgium. It’s there, where he established the improvisations on piano that sprouted this album. Loose ideas became the blueprint of extended collages, wherein piano, subtle loops and samples conflate with the cello of Clémence Clarysse and the tenor saxophone…
Les Poumons Gonflés
Les Poumons Gonflés finds Etron Fou Leloublan at their most joyously unhinged: jagged rhythms, rasping horns and yelped vocals tumbling through songs that splice punk urgency, free improvisation and absurdist theatre into something uniquely volatile.
Moving Gelatine Plates
On their self‑titled debut, Moving Gelatine Plates fuse Canterbury whimsy with French jazz‑rock bite: knotty horn lines, fuzz bass and nimble drumming tumbling through tunes that are as playful as they are technically fearless.
Subversion
Subversion’s lone self‑titled effort is a jagged artefact of post‑punk dissent: sharp‑edged guitars, brittle rhythms and urgent, slogan‑skewering vocals carving out songs that feel like manifestos scribbled in the margins of a collapsing system.
Reel 19 36
Reel 19 36 by Verto splices tape‑saturated psych, loose‑limbed prog and a faint industrial undertow into extended pieces that feel like fragments of some lost rehearsal reel, restless ideas bleeding into one another in real time.
Someone Somewhere
Someone Somewhere was assembled from original tapes during the band's active period (73-77). Acanthe was a French Classic Rock/Prog band in activity in the mid 70’s (from 73 to 77), but that has never seen its music reflected on a official release. For obscure reasons, this band was never given the effective opportunity to see its work properly published. Well, more than 30 years after their disbanding, the merits of the band have been finally recognized (and assembled) by homeland label Replica…
Blå Vardag
Blå Vardag (“Blue Weekday”) by Atlas is a slice of Scandinavian jazz‑rock melancholy: Fender Rhodes, sax and supple grooves painting portraits of urban drift where fusion chops serve an atmosphere of cool restraint and pale‑sunlight introspection.

inside-out, outside-in
2013 release ** "This is the first solo album of Madoka Kouno, an improviser who has been performing since the early 2000s, mainly in Tokyo. The two tracks were recorded live at Ftarri, Tokyo, in November 2012. In this performance she used tape recorders, a mixer, speakers, and digital tuners. The manipulation of empty tape recorders and careful changes in their positions cause subtle tremors and variations; and the rich, complex sound vibration radiates throughout the space."
