Golden Flower: Live In Sweden
There are musicians who play jazz and there are musicians who expand its very definition. Yusef Lateef was the latter - a visionary who brought the oboe, the argol, the shanai, the bamboo flute and countless other instruments into the jazz vocabulary decades before "world music" became a marketing category. Golden Flower: Live in Sweden presents two never-before-released concert recordings that capture this master at the height of his powers, finally emerging from the Sveriges Radio tape vaults …

Pirateborg
For the first explorers, the Dark Caribbean was paradise. They had found only deserted islands and rich treasures. It was only when thousands left their overcrowded and corrupted homelands to colonize the islands that the Scourge appeared… Frightening screams echoed across the beaches, and from the night-black waves the undead rose. Terror spread like wildfire. First they came one at a time, then entire hordes, and soon the settlements were submerged by rivers of lifeless, nameless creatures. Po…

Italian Library Breaks
The Modern Sound Quartet represents one of the most treasured, yet least documented, outfits in the history of Italian library music. An exceptional studio band of session musicians with a formidable groove, they released only a handful of albums under this name in the second half of the 1970s. However, their sound indelibly shaped dozens of “invisible” soundtracks, often without ever receiving an official credit on the back sleeve.
Led by pianist and composer Oscar Rocchi, and featuring Andrea …

L’Isola Misteriosa e il Capitano Nemo
Gianni Ferrio wrote a symphonic score dominated by a romantic adagio-style main theme featuring the crystal-clear voice of Edda Dell'Orso. This captivating motif returns with orchestral variations alternating with dark, action-packed and adventurous passages.

In 1997, the first CD release appeared in Germany and included the album programme plus five minutes of unreleased music from the…
Kind of Blue
Listed as one of the four most influential Jazz albums that happened to be released in 1959 (Dave Brubeck -Time Out & Charles Mingus -Ah Um among them), so much has been said and written about Miles Davis'Kind Of Blue, it's virtually impossible to summarize all the necessary info to the length of this page. We could simply list some facts (best sold Jazz album ever worldwide). We could try to explain why it's the best Jazz album ever made, but the music itself will do that to you.
As Bill Evans …
Close Position
The concept is therefore to propose an immersive type of listening, in which the rather extended durations of sustained and seemingly static sounds create a certain tension generated by the anticipation of variation.
The live performance involves the use of samples, as the composed balances require multiple timbral layers to be active simultaneously. The closeness in pitch and the mimicry between instruments highlight the psychoacoustic phenomenon of beating: in fact, our auditory sy…
Churchills
Cut in 1969, this self-titled album feels like the first fully immersive psychedelic rock statement from its own scene. At a time when local airwaves were ruled by polite pop and lightweight fare, Churchills arrived riding waves of fuzz and twisting studio gear to its limits. The lineup itself tells the story. Frontman Stan Solomon brought a raw, soulful presence; guitarist Robb Huxley carried deep experience of the classic rock songbook, its riff language and studio tricks. Alongside them, guit…
Impending Divulgence
Startled out of a nightmare, words and melodies echo – emissaries of the Tempted Dissident. Minimalist analogue electronics and haunting vocal lines emerge from the darkness and get caught in the folds of the brain. That’s how you might feel after listening to the fourth album by Te/DIS. The clarity of the electronics and vocals does not fail to make an impact. With this release, Te/DIS continues the sonic path laid out by the previous albums, shaping a body of work whose internal coherence is a…
