Although it took a while to pick up support, it paid off.” The single hit no. 23 on the Billboard Hot 100 in March 1982 and the album became Patrice’s best seller globally from her time with Elektra \/ Asylum, securing a Grammy nomination. In more recent years, the album has become a regular source for samples in the world of hip hop and R\u0026amp;B.

Matthew Halsall first heard Myra's music in 2019 shortly before the pandemic hit, signing her to Gondwana Records and producing her beautiful debut album, Horizons.\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\"I was immediately drawn to Jasmine's music. I could hear jazz, electronica in her music but with a deep, honest, emotional quality. I was really impressed with her skills as a composer and bandleader, that she is open and intelligent enough to bring all those influences together, to make something fresh and original. We were also delighted to work with a young artist from the North of England. London is often seen as the place to be, but cities like Manchester and Leeds are full of creative musicians too, and that sense of local community is at the heart of our values as a label.\"\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eMyra came-up through the bustling, creative Leeds music scene and her music draws on the sense of community that permeates life in the city and which is notable for a strong DIY ethos in its musical community. She attended Leeds Conservatoire and played with the Leeds based Abstract Orchestra, a jazz big-band, led by tutor Rob Mitchell that explores the synergy between jazz and hip-hop found in the recordings of Madlib, MF Doom of J Dilla. Indeed, Myra cites MF Doom and Soweto Kinch as early influences on her own music. It was in her last year at the conservatoire that Myra started to consider leading her own group and started to really think about what her own music might sound like and her first band featured guitarist Ben Haskins and drummer George Hall who both feature on Horizons and her band draws heavily on the Leeds community featuring rising stars such as pianist Jasper Green and harpist Alice Roberts.\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eMyra also mentions local legend, Dave Walker, who owns an instrument repair shop called 'All Brass and Woodwind' which is right next to the music college. She worked there while studying and he introduced her to a lot of local musicians. Walker also has his own line of saxophones (played by Shabaka Hutchins, Pete Wareham and Nubya Garcia), and gifted Myra the saxophone she plays on Horizons. It was Walker who encouraged Myra to apply for Jazz North Introduces, a scheme that supports emerging jazz artists in the North of England and Myra credits her winning a place, in 2018,with helping her grow in confidence.\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\" It gave me the opportunity to start gigging outside of Leeds, which I was very keen to do. I was quite surprised by people's reaction to the project and the support I was being shown, which helped me gain a lot of confidence. It became clear to me very quickly that being a solo artist was what I wanted to do and it was also apparent to me that mine was one of the only female-led instrumental bands on the Leeds scene, which encouraged me even more, as I wanted my project to inspire younger female musicians\".\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eHorizons was produced by Matthew Halsall and mixed by Portico Quartet collaborator Greg Freeman, and much of the music was written during lockdown. It was a hard time for a lot of people, and initially Myra struggled mentally, deprived of shows and the connections of making music with her band and friends, but she also realised what she wanted as an artist and the result is heard on Horizons.\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\"I realised that my aim was to start writing music that made people feel happy and uplifted. Writing is one of my biggest passions, but I also love performing. Playing live and seeing the audience connect with my music and have a positive experience brings me so much joy\".\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eThis sense of elevation is at the heart of Horizons, together with the feeling of a journey, of reaching new ground. Prologue and Horizons were originally composed as one piece as they encapsulate Myra's own personal development as she worked on the album - taking the listener on a journey, especially Prologue; and then Horizons is that moment of release when you've reached the end goal. 1000 Miles takes inspiration from the music of Shabaka and the Ancestors. Whereas Words Left Unspoken was written after Myra's grandmother unexpectedly passed away in June, and due to Covid restrictions she was unable to visit her before she passed and say how much she loved her. Morningtide is a nod to Kenny Wheeler, particularly the track Opening from Sweet Time Suite on Music for Large and Small Ensembles but Myra also puts her own spin on it as she also does with Promise, another track influenced by Wheeler. Awakening has a calm and euphoric quality and represents that sense of problems lifting, or of reaching the other side, and New Beginnings finishes the album with a positive vibe and a sense of moving forward from darkness\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eThis then is Horizons. A soulful, emotional and up-lifting debut from a major new voice. A snapshot of a young artist at the beginning of her journey - drawing on jazz and electronica influences to create something fresh and new. But also a celebration of her home town Leeds, and a record built on a sense of support and community before looking out to wider Horizons.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Gondwana Records","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":41646794571932,"sku":"GONDCD052","price":14.23,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0130\/8714\/6043\/products\/1_3db94d40-c2c0-4a15-bceb-cb7d2b3c5d35.png?v=1652802701"},{"product_id":"teenage-fanclub-nothing-lasts-forever-cd","title":"Teenage Fanclub - Nothing Lasts Forever [CD]","description":"\u003cp\u003eFormat: CD\u003cbr\u003eCatalogue No.: PEMA20CD\u003cbr\u003eBarcode: 5053760106173 \u003cbr\u003eRelease Date: 22 Sep 2023\u003cbr\u003eGenre: Indie\/Alternative\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTeenage Fanclub today announce their new album Nothing Lasts Forever via their own label PeMa.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Lead off single Foreign Land is the opening track on Teenage Fanclub’s eleventh full studio album Nothing Lasts Forever. That track - and the rest of this beautifully rich and melodic album - is the sound of a season’s end, of the last warm days of the year while nights begin to draw in and thoughts become reflective and more than a little melancholy.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e That reflection is everywhere on the record, whether on the autumnal folk rock of Tired Of Being Alone that repositions Laurel Canyon to somewhere deep in the heart of the Wye Valley, the William Blake quoting Self-Sedation or on the song that preceded Nothing Lasts Forever’s completion, last year’s I Left A Light On, where a spark of hope is kept alight at the end of a relationship.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e One of the recurring themes on Nothing Lasts Forever is light, as a both a metaphor for hope and as an ultimate destination further down the road. Although the band’s songwriters Norman Blake and Raymond McGinley found themselves touching on similar themes, it was pure coincidence.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Raymond: “We never talk about what we’re going to do before we start making a record. We don’t plan much other than the nuts and bolts of where we’re going to record and when. That thing about light was completely accidental; we didn’t realise that until we’d finished half the songs. The record feels reflective, and I think the more we do this thing, the more we become comfortable with going to that place of melancholy, feeling and expressing those feelings.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Norman: “These songs are definitely personal. You’re getting older, you’re going into the cupboard getting the black suit out more often. Thoughts of mortality and the idea of the light must have been playing on our minds a lot. The songs on the last record were influenced by the breakup of my marriage. It was cathartic to write those songs. These new songs are reflective of how I’m feeling now, coming out of that period. They’re fairly optimistic, there’s an acceptance of a situation and all of the experience that comes with that acceptance. When we write, it’s a reflection of our lives, which are pretty ordinary. We’re not extraordinary people, and normal people get older. There’s a lot to write about in the mundane. I love reading Raymond Carver. Very often there’s not a lot that happens in those stories, but they speak to lived experience.”\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e The band recorded Nothing Lasts Forever - Blake, McGinley along with Francis Macdonald on drums, Dave McGowan on bass and Euros Childs on keyboards during an intense ten-day period in the bucolic Welsh countryside at Rockfield Studios, near Monmouth in late August. You can hear the effect of that environment on the record - it’s full of soft breeze, wide skies, beauty and space. \u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e One of the most striking lyrics on the record is on the closing track I Will Love You. A gorgeous seven minute almost Kosmiche acoustic daydream drone, it looks to a point beyond the fury and polarisation of our modern discourse, to a time when “the bigots are gone\/after they apologise\/for all the harm that they’ve done”. Looking for positives while faced with the grim realities of the 21st century feels very Teenage Fanclub - a band who’ve been a force for good for over three decades and who can effortlessly turn melancholy into glorious, chiming harmony. \u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Teenage Fanclub have announced an extensive touring schedule with a handful of dates in the Summer followed by a full UK \u0026amp; European tour in October and November.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTRACKLISTING\u003cbr\u003e 1.

Bandleader Frank Abel recollects, \"We sensed that the soul and funk market was saturated back home, and our original plan was a brief 6-month stint in Paris. Surprisingly, we ended up staying for a decade.\" Upon lead singer Bobby Boyd's return to the U.S., the group rebranded as Ice and crossed paths with independent producer Pierre Jaubert, a seasoned studio professional with credits on groundbreaking recordings alongside Charles Mingus, John Lee Hooker, and Archie Shepp, among others. \u003cbr\u003e  \u003cbr\u003e Drawing inspiration from Motown's work ethic, Jaubert initiated regular rehearsals with Ice. He recalled, \"I didn't want to mimic Berry, but with seven talented musicians collaborating daily, something unique emerged.\" The band, residing in Paris and immersed in the African-dominated Barbesse district, began infusing African elements into their music frequently performing with Paris-dwelling Camaroonian and legendary composer Manu Dibango. \u003cbr\u003e  \u003cbr\u003e Under the new moniker Lafayette Afro Rock Band, the group's music transitioned to predominantly instrumental compositions, featuring a denser Afro-funk sound. Their inaugural recording with the new name, 'Soul Makossa,' included a compelling rendition of Dibango's classic and the impactful break in 'Hihache.' The subsequent release a year later, 'Malik,' refined their sound with the percussive Afro party jam 'Conga,' the atmospheric vocoder and piano-led piece 'Djungi,' and the robust funk of 'Darkest Light.' Despite a limited impact upon its initial release, 'Malik' found appreciation as hip-hop culture flourished in the '80s, establishing itself as a rich source of samples and riffs. 'Conga' was featured in the 'Ultimate Breaks And Beats' series, while the opening horn line from 'Darkest Light' became a pivotal hip-hop motif, employed by Jay-Z, Public Enemy, Wreckx 'N' Effect, and many others. \u003cbr\u003e  \u003cbr\u003e This remastered reissue, the first of its kind, meticulously crafted by The Carvery from the original tapes, showcases the album in its entirety and includes the full original artwork.

Their debut album Small Medium Large began as a collection of long-form improvisations recorded during two separate two-night stands at beloved Highland Park venue ETA, a major development site for the burgeoning new LA jazz \u0026amp; improvised music sound, which unfortunately closed its doors permanently at the end of 2023. \u003cbr\u003e  \u003cbr\u003e The venue, perhaps best known outside of LA for Jeff Parker’s 2022 album Mondays at the Enfield Tennis Academy, was the perfect location for the start of SML, especially given that both bassist Anna Buterss and saxophonist Josh Johnson are in the quartet featured on that record.

Stylistically though, these recordings have more in common with the proto trance repetitions of Harmonia, and with Holgar Czukay’s re-assemblage technique used in his work with Can. Throw in a supremely intuitive utilization of Susumu Yokota’s floating patterns polyrhythm concept and we have a truly entrancing take on time-clocked electronic rhythms augmenting with live percussion, yet maintaining that elusive human sway. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTRACKLISTING\u003cbr\u003eA1.

But as the seasons shifted, I found myself back in Peru. Being there made me feel close to her again, like she was in the air. Slowly, music started to come back to me, not as noise, but as strength. It felt like reconnecting with her spirit, honouring everything she gave me. This chapter of my life has forever changed how I hear music.

I played the DJ Koze mix an unhealthy number of times, to the point where it basically lives in my DNA now,\" she smiles. \"Those mixes taught me that the best ones aren't about showing off; they're about taking people on a journey.

The highs, the lows, the warmth, the weird little left turns. That's basically how my brain works when I'm behind the decks.

Across seven previously unreleased tracks, the album blends “cosmic music” with “live compositions,” reflecting the band’s distinctive approach to spontaneous creation. Sessions often began in silence and meditation, gradually unfolding into collective improvisations.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe lineup featured Michael Boxberger on saxophone, Benny Düring on piano, and twin brothers Alfred and Ulrich Franke forming a rhythm section frequently described as having a “telepathic connection.” Joined by sitar master Narayan Govande, they shaped a sound that balanced freedom with improvisation, space, and silence. “Silence might be the most beautiful part in music,” the band once reflected. “One single note can make more of an impression than 100 notes.”\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWith this ethos, Morgenmusiken invites listeners on a journey both meditative and expansive - a discovery of music that feels timeless.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Frederiksberg Records","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46200311873692,"sku":"FRB22LP","price":32.28,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0130\/8714\/6043\/files\/5_5d3992bf-b895-4c8e-8858-ae031d755dc3.webp?v=1770992378"},{"product_id":"laura-chavez-my-voice-cd","title":"Laura Chavez - My Voice [CD]","description":"\u003cp\u003eFormat: CD\u003cbr\u003eCatalogue No.: 2913312RFR\u003cbr\u003eBarcode: 0710347133124\u003cbr\u003eRelease Date: 03 Apr 2026\u003cbr\u003eGenre: Blues\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRuf Records announces My Voice, the long-awaited debut solo album from acclaimed American blues, soul, and R\u0026amp;B guitarist, songwriter, and producer Laura Chavez, due January 2026. Entirely instrumental, the album reflects Chavez’s belief that the guitar is her true voice. Renowned for her fiery technique, emotional depth, and unmistakable tone, Chavez has shaped modern blues through collaborations with artists such as Deborah Coleman, Nikki Hill, Vanessa Collier, and many others. Her achievements include multiple Blues Music Award nominations and a historic win for Instrumentalist – Guitar in 2023, making her the first woman to receive the honor.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMy Voice blends originals with reimagined classics, drawing on Texas and Chicago blues while embracing rock, soul, and roots influences. Highlights include a driving take on “Born On The Bayou,” dedicated to her father; “So Long Baby, Goodbye,” a tribute to California’s roots-rock heritage; and “El Cascabel,” honoring her Mexican heritage with mariachi-inspired blues-rock. Instrumental soul shines on “Chinese Checkers,” while the haunting slow blues “La Llorona,” inspired by Mexican folklore, provides an emotional centerpiece.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMore than a debut, My Voice is a personal statement—raw, expressive, and deeply human—presenting Laura Chavez fully in command of her craft, telling her story without saying a word.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTRACKLIST:\u003cbr\u003e001 - Born On The Bayou \u003cbr\u003e002 - Mind Your Step \u003cbr\u003e003 - Shot-Zee \u003cbr\u003e004 - Wanderer \u003cbr\u003e005 - El Cascabel \u003cbr\u003e006 - So Long Baby, Goodbye \u003cbr\u003e007 - Chinese Checkers \u003cbr\u003e008 - Mamba Negra \u003cbr\u003e009 - Napa Street \u003cbr\u003e010 - La Llorona\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Ruf Records","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46562374090908,"sku":"2913312RFR","price":16.13,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0130\/8714\/6043\/files\/2_7204410c-1e2f-4eec-a60f-c83cb865f39c.webp?v=1774152208"}],"url":"https:\/\/www.horizonsmusic.co.uk\/collections\/back-in-stock-rom070726.oembed","provider":"Horizons Music","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
