Der britische Pop-Noir-Künstler und Schauspieler (Exit, Wisting), Luke Elliot, glänzt auf seinem dritten Studioalbum mit einer eklektischen Mischung von Einflüssen, die von Jazzikonen (John Coltrane, Duke Ellington) über Outsiderlegenden (The Cramps, Gun Club, Mink DeVille) bis zu ebensolchen Kultfilmen (Badlands, Pulp Fiction, Natural Born Killers) reichen. Sein dunkler Crooning-Stil aus Tradition, Melancholie und Melodie lässt Vergleiche mit den größten Singer/Songwritern unserer Zeit zu, und das Mojo-Magazin nennt ihr 'einen Meister des zugänglichen, verdrehten Gothic Americana'. Ein Highlight auf 'Let 'Em All Talk' ist sicherlich sein Cover der zeitlosen Ballade 'I (Who have Nothing)'.

A nomad in France and elsewhere, a dandy of the highways and byways, Antonin carries his poetically gaunt figure along the beaches of Cap-Ferret, where he is originally from, his long Cossack hair and his profile of a night owl with a sharp sweetness. Born "sea-drunk", he grew up in a wooden hut on the sand in the middle of the pines, and his only masters are time, the ocean and the six strings of his acoustic guitar. His music is like him: sun-drenched, free as air, necessary as water. Heady pop ritornellos, ballads to sing in chorus and dance barefoot, island saudades. Somewhere between Nino Ferrer and Nino Rota, Air and Moustaki, with Antonin's casual and chameleon-like ability to pass himself off as an Italian or an Israeli when the wine or the atmosphere encourages him to do so.

One day, you wake up with a cloud in your head. You feel out of place and uninspired, and juggle so many worries the balance is skewed. That was Armin van Buuren three years ago. He put so much love and passion into his work and found it hard to cope with the fact that not everyone can be pleased. Something needed to change. So, he reformed his life routines, took up meditation to calm the storm and did everything he could to negate the numbness. And what he ended up with was a newfound love for music and an incredible three-part album: Feel Again.

From "No Fun" and "Computers Take Over The World" to "One More Time", "Come Around Again" and "Roll The Dice", the Feel Again album sonically represents the journey of an artist extraordinaire radically looking for harmony within himself. Its 34 tracks may be different in terms of sound, but together, they reflect an equilibrium that could only come from a man in balance.

From reconnecting to friends, family, and fans to finding inner peace, Feel Again means acknowledging harsh truths, finding out what really matters and letting that power a new step forward. Because in the evergreen words of Armin van Buuren himself, “we're still learning and will never stop learning till the day we die”.

Feel Again is available as a deluxe limited edition box set, including 3 LP's, which are housed in printed innersleeves. The set also includes 5 exclusive Armin van Buuren lithos. This deluxe boxset is limited to 3000 individually numbered copies on turquoise marbled (LP1), white marbled (LP2), and orange marbled (LP3) vinyl.

Former In the Woods... members deliver epic Norwegian Black Metal to takes you into the night sky!

It’s the moment just after the tree-root thick tangle of guitars come in and the luminous clean vocals light up the sky while the keyboards suddenly shine from below: when the singing enters on ‘Astrologer’, the first track of Nattehimmel’s first album “Mourningstar”, that one might actually hear a continuation from In The Woods...’s legendary “Omnio” album from 1997. None of the 5 members are strangers to one another, having met before in bands such as In The Woods... and Strange New Dawn.
We guarantee that the members regard “Omnio” pretty highly.
Enough to revere it though? The similarity is not likely to be incidental, and anyway proves fleeting in the context of the 8 songs on “Mournigstar”, this new union turning out
very creative in shaping their Black Metal with a variety of elements. Primarily, the vocals set Nattehimmel apart from many other acts of this nature by including a variety of tropes from harsh growls to monkish groans to undead rasps, plus other backing parts that overlay the slightly echoey production with a ton of reson.

For Zylva, creating is a form of healing. In 2020, the producer, illustrator, and poet found herself struggling with her mental wellbeing: a fresh arrival in locked-down Berlin, and newly heartbroken in a city known for its harsh winters and fleeting connections, Zylva imagined a place for hope, creating her debut album "Poems from the Dark".


Drifting somewhere between avant pop, lo-fi and celestial R&B, "Poems from the Dark" sets out on an emotional journey that unfolds over the course of twelve deeply personal tracks.

The Undertones um Sänger Feargal Sharkey wurden 1975 in Derry, Nordirland, gegründet und veröffentlichten 1980 ihr zweites Album "Hypnotised", das auf Platz 6 der britischen Charts landete. Die Themen entsprechen denen ihres Debüts und konzentrieren sich auf Teenagerängste, Übermut und Herzschmerz. Allerdings ist "Hypnotised" sowohl textlich als auch musikalisch deutlich anspruchsvoller als sein Vorgänger. Das Album enthält 14 punkige Pop-Klassiker mit einer etwas härteren Gangart als das wegweisende Debüt. Repress erstmalig auf rotem Vinyl.

The Undertones um Sänger Feargal Sharkey wurden 1975 in Derry, Nordirland, gegründet und veröffentlichten 1979 ihr Debütalbum "The Undertones", das auf Platz 13 der britischen Charts landete. John und Damian O'Neill verbanden ansteckende Gitarrenhooks mit 60er-Jahre-Garage und 70er-Jahre-Glam-Rock mit Feargal Sharkeys unverkennbarem Gesang. Diese Qualitäten kamen in ihrem Durchbruchshit "Teenage Kicks" zusammen, dessen Schlichtheit an die Ideale der 60er Jahre erinnert. Dieses klassische Debütalbum versprüht so viel unverhohlene Freude in zweiminütigen Drei-Akkord-Popsongs. Es gibt wenig Anmaßung in ihrer kompromisslosen Teenager-Weltanschauung, dass selbst die dunkleren Andeutungen des Lebens in Songs wie dem Selbstmord-Thema "Jimmy Jimmy" mit einem Optimismus vorgetragen werden, der im Gegensatz zu so
vielen ihrer Zeitgenossen steht. Limited Edition Repress auf transparent-grünem Vinyl.

Das zweifach ausgezeichnete Rock & Roll Hall of Fame-Mitglied Graham Nash präsentiert sein erstes Studio Album seit 7 Jahren. Das Gründungsmitglied der Hollies und Crosby, Stills & Nash hat mit seinem langjährigen Tour Keyboarder Todd Caldwell sein Album
mit dem Titel "Now" produziert. "Ich glaube, dass mein neues Album Now das persönlichste ist, das ich je gemacht habe.

An diesem Punkt in meinem Leben ist das etwas, das man sagen kann", erzählt Nash. Nash wird in diesem Frühjahr mit einer Reihe von Auftritten in den USA auf Tournee gehen, um das Album zu promoten.
Zusätzlich zu seinen zwei Eintritten in die Rock & Roll Hall of Fame (mit Crosby, Stills & Nash und den Hollies) ist Nash zweimal in die Songwriters Hall of Fame aufgenommen worden - als Solokünstler und mit CSN.

Nashs bemerkenswertes Werk begann mit den Hollies in den Jahren 1964 bis '68. Seine Beiträge zu Crosby, Stills & Nash, Déjà Vuare und den Hollies mit Titeln wie "Marrakesh Express", "Pre-Road Downs", "Lady of the Island", "Teach Your Children" und "Our House" gehören
zur musikalischen DNA in der amerikanischen Musikgeschichte.

Die Heavy Metal Ikonen Alcatrazz aus LA liefern Songs im Warp Faktor 10 auf ihrem sechsten Studioalbum, das dritte in drei Jahren. Das Album umfasst 10 mitreißende, charismatische Tracks und in jedem ist die einzigartige Fusion von amerikanischem Classic Rock mit der harten Rock-Attitüde des britischen Metal zu erkennen. Take No Prisoners kommt mit der Energie von Alcatrazz, im Gepäck umfassende Melodien mit "Road Warrior" Riffs.

'Little Viper' hat eine Gitarre, die alles abmäht und dann in einem Gewitter endet, ein Angriff, den man von Dio kennt; aber es gibt auch ruhigere, umfangreiche Songs wie das epische 'Strangers' und das Album endet mit dem Brennpunkt 'Bring On The Rawk'. Ohne Frage:
Alcatrazz is kicking ass. Mit Doogie White (Gesang), Joe Stump (Gitarre), Jimmy Waldo (Keyboards), Gary Shea (Bass) und Larry Paterson (Drums) ist das Werk ein lautes und stolzes Classic Rock Album, produziert von Giles Lavery und Waldo. Take No Prisoners it ganz in der Tradition wie man Alcatrazz kennt, exzellente Gitarren,
donnernde Rhythmen und mit einem Gesang, der an die Dio/Rainbow Ära erinnert.

Das in LA ansässige DJ-Trio Cheat Codes, bekannt durch mehrere Singlehits auch in den hiesigen Charts, begibt sich in die 'schönste Stadt aller Zeiten', Nashville, und nimmt zusammen mit einschlägigen Country-Sänger*innen ein Album mit 13 Songs zwischen Country und entspanntem Lofi-Dance-Pop auf. Der Erfolg einer ersten Single mit Lee Brice & Lindsay Ell sowie die erfahrene Zustimmung auf dem Stagecoach Festival 2022 bestätigten ihr Bauchgefühl, Country inspirierte Dance-Pop-Tracks mit einer Vielzahl an Kollaborationen, darunter der legendären Dolly Parton, aufzunehmen.

Eine streng limitierte Neuauflage von "Day To Day" auf marmoriertem Vinyl. Das Debütalbum von Sarathy Korwar wurde ursprünglich 2016 in Zusammenarbeit mit der Steve Reid Foundation veröffentlicht und verbindet traditionelle Volksmusik der Sidi-Gemeinschaft in Indien (mit ostafrikanischen, Sufi- und indischen Einflüssen) mit Jazz und Elektronik.

Angetrieben von brillianten, eindringlichen Melodien, wurzelt Blondshells Songwriting im Konkreten: jeder Vers ist wörtlich zu nehmen, eine anektdotische Verarbeitung von Traumata und der Suche nach Selbstvertrauen, Selbstbeherrschung und Entlastung. Mit ihrem Debüt liefert sie einen neuen Indie-Sound voll verträumter Gitarren und 90iger Alternative Rock Einflüssen. Der Geheimtipp am Indiehimmel 2023.

New album from indie heavyweight Chris Webby - the culmination of his year long 'Wednesday' campaign, and the sixth in the series.

It's been another HUGE year for Chris Webby!

BENNY THE BUTCHER THE PLUGS I MET 2 THE PLUGS I MET 2 IS NOW AVAILABLE IN A LIMITED EDITION BURGUNDY PRESSING

Mere months after releasing an undisputed AOTY contender for 2020 with Burden Of Proof and only three months after being shot, Benny got back on his feet (way ahead of schedule) and re-immersed in his element “back to that little pot, that little flame.” While he has separated himself from his peers, Benny from Montana Ave knows the game is to be sold and never told and he has put all of these accolades in his rearview mirror to focus on his next lick; The Plugs I Met 2. The Plugs I Met 2 is the coronation of a true G going from worker to the PLUG---and never looking back. “I came in as an underdog, to filling out my position as one of the elite rhymers in the industry. Plugs 2 expands upon that mindset; the same confidence, same attitude, cocky, but I still have something to prove” Benny asserts. Produced entirely by Harry Fraud, the Brooklyn bred producer describes The Plugs I Met 2 as “the story of a hustler who’s realized success but understands how fragile it is. Lyrically the album shows Benny reflecting on what he’s sacrificed to get here and what he’ll need to do to continue his rise to the top. With this project we set out to transport the listener into a world that was lush but still gritty, triumphant but still emotional and sonically diverse across the board.”

Schottlands hottest Superstar Lewis Capaldi meldet sich mit seinem langersehnten 2. Album zurück - nachdem er mit seinem Überhit ”Someone You Loved” 2019 alle UK Rekorde knackte und sein Debüt ”Divinely Uninspired To A Hellish Extent” weltweit wie heißeste Semmeln über die Ladentheken ging (7fach Platin in UK, Gold in DE und aktuell wieder #4 in den UK Albumcharts).

”Broken By Desire To Be Heavenly Sent” enthält neben der Uptempo Single ”Forget Me” auch die aktuelle Ballade ”Wish You The Best”, die Lewis zum mittlerweile das fünfte Mal auf den UK Singlechart Thron
katapultierte.

Nahezu täglich nimmt er seine über 6,5 Millionen Instagram Follower auf unterhaltsamste Art und Weise mit auf seine Reise und beherrschte zuletzt sogar wochenlang die #1 der UK Netflix Charts mit seiner sehr berührenden mental health Doku ”How I’m Feeling Now”.
Niemand vereint herzzerreißende Songs, eine einzigartige Stimme, Humor und die Zerbrechlichkeit aufgrund andauernder mental health und Tourette Erkrankungen wie der 26-Jährige. Trotz aller Widrigkeiten spielt er weltweit in den größten Hallen und mit befreundeten Kollegen wie Niall Horan, Sam Smith, Jonas Brothers und zählt u.a. Elton John und Harry Styles zu seinen Fans.

"Into The Abyss", the new album by Joel Holmes (former band leader of Carl Craig's synthesizer ensemble and member of Grammy-nominated cult band Roy Hargrove) is a perfect capturing of Berlin's new jazz and electronic scene.

"Sven Helbig writes symphonies for the here and now: Orchestra meets Electronics in Song format

The Pocket Symphonies are a coherent cycle of 12 compositions for orchestra and piano quartet in which the composer Sven Helbig pursues the idea of creating symphonic pearls in the form of songs: short, catchy and yet possessing the impact and depth of great classical symphonies. The Pocket Symphonies were recorded by the MDR Symphony Orchestra under the direction of Kristjan Järvi and with the Fauré Quartet as soloists. "

Power, Pain, Privilege is Specimens fourth album & most personal work to date, it follows up on his collaboration album ‘Intersections’ with Peter Broderick, Benoît Pioulard, Midori Hirano & Emilie Levienaise-Farrouch.

Power, Pain, Privilege is a commissioned piece by London’s Southbank Centre and is an abstract sonic exploration of biracial identity, in its historicity as well as through the lens of Ives’ own personal experience of being British-Jamaican. The album is a departure from his largely ambient work and explores haunted and twisted dancehall rhythms, industrial drones, and spoken word pieces that track a course through painful incidents of imposter syndrome, shame, privilege & racism.

The album opens with a computerised robotic voice reading excerpts of the 1930s Fletcher Report: “an Investigation into the Colour Problem in Liverpool and other ports” a report which heavily stigmatises children and mixed heritage families of African and European origin. It could be deemed the official outset in defining Liverpool's ‘half castes’ as a problem and blight to the “British way of life”. Ives’ states “this track sets the tone to the album, the cold analytical and dehumanising approach to reports like this, whilst over 80 years old set the standard for viewing biracial families and to have used a Human voice to recite these pieces of text would have been to give it too much life”

The album is accompanied by a film directed by the photographer & director Lucie Rox which was live scored at The Southbank Centre in London and in Paris at 3537.

First released in January 2017, this popular soundtrack has been out of stock for several years and is now back by popular demand on a new colour.
Winner of the Grand Jury Prize at the 2016 Venice International Film Festival, Nocturnal Animals, Tom Ford’s haunting romantic thriller has been hailed as “a tour de force” (The Independent). Nocturnal Animals marks the second film from writer/director Ford, and his second collaboration with composer Korzeniowski. Their first collaboration, A Single Man, earned Korzeniowski his first Golden Globe nomination for Best Score. The score was a breakout for the composer, earning him the prestigious Discovery Award at the 2010 Gent Film Festival’s World Soundtrack Awards.
Korzeniowski has described his score to Nocturnal Animals as “embracing two extremes, but switching their traditional genre characterization. The crime plot is scored as an intimate, personal story, while the psychological drama is treated as a thriller. The cold and detached intertwines with poignant and excruciating, the simple and intimate becomes grand and bold."

Take a look at the cover of Rodney Crowell's brilliant new album, The
Chicago Sessions, and you might recognize a familiar callback to the
legendary songwriter's 1978 debut "In a lot of ways, this album feels like that very first record to me," Crowell reflects.

"When my daughter Chelsea suggested we lay the artwork out similarly, the connection made perfect sense. There's something very simple, very innocent about it. It's just me and the band in a room together, loose and live and having fun." Produced by Wilco's Jeff Tweedy, The Chicago Sessions is indeed a throwback to Crowell's early days of making records, but it's no nostalgia trip. The
songs here are vital and timely, touching on everything from love and mortality to race and religion, and the performances are nothing short of intoxicating, fueled by raw guitars, honky-tonk piano, and tight, punchy drums. Tweedy wields a light touch as a producer, his influence subtle yet unmistakable, and engineer Tom Schick's mixes are dynamic and alive, alternately lush and spacious in all the right
places with a spotlight fixed firmly on Crowell's warm, weathered vocals throughout. Put it all together and you've got a masterful, cross- generational collaboration that manages to feel both fresh and familiar all at once, an incisive, engaging collection that balances careful craftsmanship with joyful liberation at every turn

Die deutsche Post-Metalformation THE OCEAN veröffentlicht ihre neuen Albums "Holocene" im Mai 2023! Mit Holocene fügen The Ocean das neue und abschließende Kapitel in ihrer paläontologisch inspirierten Albumserie hinzu. Erweitert wird die Härte des Kollektivs diesmal um einige elektronische Dimensionen. Gegründet zu Beginn des Jahrtausends, hat die Gruppe von Musikern um den Gitarristen Robin Stapps auch nach über 20 Jahren nicht an Intensität eingebüßt. The Ocean kommen jedesmal zusammen mit der gemeinsamen Vision von grenzenloser Klangforschung, niemals stillstehend, genießt die Band einen hervorragenden Ruf in den Genres des Postrock, Progressive Metal und sogar Hardcore. Robin Staps kommentierte das abschließende Werk der paleontologischen Albumserie: "Holocene is an appendix to the 2 Phanerozoic albums and Precambrian, or the final and concluding chapter, making it a quadrilogy if you want so. It's tackling the Holocene epoch, which is the current and shortest chapter in earth's history, but it is essentially an album about the angst, alienation, loss of reason and critical thinking, rise of conspiracy theories and deconstruction of values in the modern age." Zum Entstehungsprozess und der elektronischen Basis der neuen Songs fügt er hinzu: "The writing process of every album we've ever made started with me coming up with a guitar riff, a drumbeat or a vocal idea. This album is different since every single song is based on a musical idea that was originally written by Peter (Voigtmann, synths). He came up with these amazing synth parts that were already sounding huge in pre-production, and he sent me some of those raw, unfinished ideas during mid lockdown 2020... and while it was all electronic, it had that definite Ocean vibe to it. It made me want to pick up my guitar instantly_ and so I did, and it didn't take long until we had an inspiring creative exchange that was heading towards totally unforeseen but very exciting places." Für Fans von Massive Attack, Lorn, Archive, Trentemöller, early Moderat, Portishead, Isis, Mastodon, Katatonia, The Pineapple Thief Gatefold aus schwarzem Spezialpapier mit Stanzungen, metallic inks und UV Spot Lack, Insert mit Kupferfolienprägung, 20seitiges Booklet, printed inner sleeve

The house band at Memphis's legendary Stax Records, Booker T. & the M.G.'s played on some of the most legendary and unforgettable soul recordings in history. Originally released in 1962, the title-track of their debut LP Green Onions is arguably the most recognizable piece of instrumental pop and soul ever to be released; an absolute stone classic of a jam, with Booker T.'s organ at the fore. In addition to being a classic group, Booker T. & the M.G.'s were one of the first soul and rock groups to have both white and black members, and understandably their music is often associated with the Civil Rights Movement that was going on all around them in the American south of the 1960s. Essential American originals from Booker T. & the M.G.'s.

Hailed by American Songwriter as "one of America's most intriguing,
creative, and idiosyncratic voices," Eilen Jewell rises from the ashes on her captivating new album, Get Behind The Wheel, picking up the pieces of her shattered world and finding new purpose after watching her marriage, her band, and what felt like her entire career fall apart in a series of heartbreaking implosions Co- produced by multi- instrumental wizard Will Kimbrough (Todd Snider, Hayes Carll), the 11- song collection pushes the acclaimed singer and songwriter's
trademark blend of vintage roots- noir into more psychedelic territory, with spacious, cinematic arrangements complementing her revelatory explorations of grief, loss, resilience, and redemption. The band's performances are electrifying here, resulting in Jewell's boldest album yet, a powerful work of artistic alchemy that transforms heartache into genuine creative rebirth.

MOZA?K began its journey under the oppressive aura of the 1980 coup in Turkey, singing songs of freedom from all around the world, eventually stepping into the more controversial areas of jazz, progressive rock and fusion with their own compositions.
Whilst the post-coup music scene was dominated by apolitical pop music, Mozaik produced sophisticated lyrics and composed songs in unusual structures.
With a dynamic crew and a rotating list of songwriters in the band, Mozaik maintained its unique sound and poetic narrative throughout the years.
In your hands right now is the first vinyl compilation available outside of Turkey including songs from their entire Archive, first published in 2014 in 6 CDs.

250 Copies limited edition coloured double LP in gatefold sleeve with original and English lyrics.

The Mellophonia label offshoot Fusion Sequence won us over with its well-presented and great-sounding first EP, and now a quick follow-up does the same. This one is another various artists affair that starts with some nice futuristic robot disco from Vanity Project. There is more organic and lush Balearic from Bobby Bricks and Pacific Coliseum follows that spine-tingling Ibiza sunset vibe. On the flip side, there is everything from late-night electronic house to lazy disco via Sorcerer's blissed out 'Just For Love' which would entrance any dance floor. There's as much quality as there is variation on this one, which makes it a useful EP indeed.

»Italia Synthetica 1981-1985« represents the musical mutation that occurred after the post-punk hangover gave way to more frigid emotional shores, in-line with the synth-wave moment that was sweeping Europe and the white cliffs of Albion. This scene flourished in Italy between 1981-1985, and the musicians that came out of it are still revered today (particularly in the US).

Robotic rhythms and intuitions that, besides sharing common ground with the electronic movements that had come before, also knew how to fill up the dancefloor. Featuring four previously unreleased tracks by Der Blaue Reiter, along with tracks by Modo, Actor's Studio, and La Maison, as well as the still fresh sounding contributions by true pioneers of the genre Neon and Naif Orchestra. Also features Ein-st-ein, Scortilla, Eurotunes, Oh Oh Art, and 2+2=5 featuring Paolo Mauri.

So habt ihr Def Leppard noch nie gehört: mit dem Royal Philharmonic Orchestra interpretieren die britischen Heavy Metal Ikonen ihre größten Hits und persönlichen Favoriten neu. ”Drastic Symphonies” enthält die besten Songs von Def Leppard größer und mitreißender als je zuvor und erscheint nun in mehreren Vinyl- und CD-Versionen.

”Wir wollten nicht einfach nur das Orchester über unsere bisherigen Aufnahmen klatschen”, erklärt Gitarrist Phil Collen. ”Wir haben neue Parts eingespielt, bestehende Sounds neu abgemischt, teils
unsere Instrumente rausgenommen, um dem Orchester Raum zum Atmen zu geben – also buchstäblich ein neues Album gemacht.” Ein ganz besonderer Clou: an einigen Stellen duettiert Sänger Joe Elliott sogar mit seinem 22-jährigen Selbst!

Das Album ist nun als 1CD, Ltd. 1CD + Blu-ray und als Ltd. Edt. 2LP erhältlich.
