Abstract Forest
Tip! On this striking new CD, Joe Morris wields his guitar with deliberate restraint, building deep layers that breathe around Brad Barrett’s cello — its bowed lines resonating with both plaintive lyricism and edgy percussive accents. Beth Ann Jones anchors the trio with a sculptural bass, her tone rich and propulsive, providing an essential counterpoint to Morris' explorations. It's a beautifully measured session—each player deep-listening, unfolding subtle dialogues, and seamlessly shifting be…
Points Of Convergences
This double album was recorded on the night of June 3, 2014, at Saint-Merry Church, in the heart of Paris. Beyond its architectural beauty, Saint-Merry possesses an extraordinary acoustic quality, which has shaped countless sonic experiences and left its mark on this recording.

The talented Augustin Muller masterfully …

Poems From A Rooftop
Oliver Doerell and Roger Doering's Dictaphone might not be the most prolific project around, but what they lack in frequency they make up for in sheer impact. 'Poems from a rooftop' is their third album in ten years, and is the first to feature new member Alexander Stolze on violin. The dusty, haunted jazz of 'M.=addiction' and 'Vertigo II' is still visible, but joined by Stolze's shimmering string tones, giving the already rich sound a further layer of depth.
The title 'Poems from a rooftop' co…

The Art Of Sound(s)
"In times like ours, such an absence of the ordinary, of the real, may not exactly be a political statement. But as a social concept, this kind of music might be a beginning—a step toward a different, perhaps better, perception of the world around us. And that’s precisely what “The Art of Sound(s)“ is: Because as soon as the molecules start dancing in this chamber of reflections, art is becoming a true and selfless act of existentialism." - Rudolf Amstutz

Bedlam
The English blues revival played a crucial role in shaping a new generation of performers and spawning diverse sub-genres. Emerging from this movement, the hard rock revolution ignited with the powerful riffs of Cream and their contemporaries, paving the way for a fresh wave known as the “British invasion.”
Among the impactful yet brief contributors to this era was Bedlam, a four-piece band that released a single studio album in 1973. At the heart of the band was the formidable drummer Cozy Powe…

Just Gravity
Haeun Joo Unveils a Bold, Free-Spirited Debut on 577 Records with Just Gravity, Capturing the Immediacy of Improvisation and the Beauty of Intention.
Live at the Swing Club Torino Italy
"Although alto saxophonist Noah Howard never quite managed to garner the reputation that several of his more well-known playing partners did, to those 'in the know', he was every bit as essential and extraordinary as Archie Shepp and Albert Ayler. A player and composer of direct and emotionally charged music, Howard's career saw him bear witness to some of the most tumultuous periods in jazz, giving voice to the cry for freedom – both musical and political – that characterised the late 1960s and…
Holding on to Wonder
In times of infobesity and doomscrolling, maintaining a sense of wonder can be hard - especially for those who depend on it for their work. For all those involved in the arts, but also for anyone else who likes to be inspired by previously unimagined combinations of ideas, here is the perfect album: a sung conversation between artists, a voyage through the sonic multiverse, a musical invitation to re-widen those eyes.
On ‘Holding on to Wonder’, contemporary jazz corresponds with 70s cop show sou…

Through The Wall
A trickle of audio fragments exchanged between two locked down bedrooms becomes a flood of sound, emotion and connection.
