I had written a couple of songs that didn’t make the cut and realized that if I wanted to get my own music out there, I’d have to do it myself, or at least with other people,” says Bas. When he decided to form a band, he had two rules: he wouldn’t sing himself, and it wouldn’t be a female singer. Finding the right guy proved impossible and after several try-outs, one name kept coming up: Maggy Luyten. “Mag’s voice completely blew me away. I thought, ‘This chick sings like a dude and she delivers.’ Not long after that, we met at an Ayreon album presentation in Utrecht. She wanted to hear my songs to see if they inspired her. They did.” The rest is history. Maggy recalls with a smile: “When Bas came over to hear what I’d worked on, we both knew we had something.

With ’70s and ’80s hard rock and metal running through their veins, the chemistry felt natural. “The enthusiasm we feel when listening to what we’ve created and the belief that these songs deserve to be heard, made starting a band feel natural,” says Maggy, who values the freedom to write lyrics and melodies. “Most ideas came naturally. I’m used to writing melodies over prog-based music and Bas writes riffs that feel like a highway for vocals, lots of space and freedom. The lyrics are based on personal experiences that I hope others can relate to when they need it.”\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eROCK JUSTICE is completed by bass player Nick McGrath, a close friend of Bas since the late ’90s, known for playing with ACinDC, one of the most renowned AC\/DC tribute bands.

Doro is a living legend who has built an unbreakable bond between our heroes, her friends, and those who continue to keep rock and metal strong. I sent her a short video explaining the message behind the lyrics and how wonderful it would be to have her on the song.

Rather than relying on big band names, Caffery presents his own personal, dark, and uncompromising take on heavy metal—raw, emotional, yet meticulously arranged. \u003cbr\u003eOverwhelming walls of guitar meet classic metal hooks and dramatic, almost theatrical arcs of tension, as is familiar from the Savatage milieu. Lyrically, the album oscillates between personal catharsis, social criticism, and dark humor, with Caffery handling the guitars, bass, and most of the vocals himself, thereby creating a direct, “one-man-show” feel. \u003cbr\u003eMusically, the spectrum ranges from aggressive, thrash-tinged tracks to groovy mid-tempo pieces and epic, multi-part songs with a subtle prog flair. As a result, “Pins and Needles” stands as a statement in its own right—one that, while clearly rooted in the Savatage\/TSO universe, resolutely forges its own path and remains particularly compelling for fans of classic US power and prog metal.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTRACKLISTING\u003cbr\u003e01 - Pins and Needles\u003cbr\u003e02 - 66 \u003cbr\u003e03 - Reach Out and Torment Again \u003cbr\u003e04 - Walls\u003cbr\u003e05 - Y.G.B.F.K.M.\u003cbr\u003e06 - Chained \u003cbr\u003e07 - Worms \u003cbr\u003e08 - The Sign of the Crossed \u003cbr\u003e09 - The Time \u003cbr\u003e10 - Mettle Eastern\u003cbr\u003e11 - In the Midst \u003cbr\u003e12 - Quaaludio \u003cbr\u003e13 - The Temple \u003cbr\u003e14 - Once Upon a Time\u003cbr\u003e15 - Pisses Me Off \u003cbr\u003e16 - The Time (Alternate)\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Metalville","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46788591485084,"sku":"MV462","price":16.13,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0130\/8714\/6043\/files\/unnamed_16_878a5da9-839d-471b-bd62-e0c03ca841c8.jpg?v=1777565061"},{"product_id":"various-artists-teed-dj-kicks-teed-lp","title":"Various Artists: Teed - Dj-Kicks: Teed [LP]","description":"\u003cp\u003eFormat: LP\u003cbr\u003eCatalogue No.: K7452LP\u003cbr\u003eBarcode: 4062548130522\u003cbr\u003eRelease Date: 26 Jun 2026\u003cbr\u003eGenre: Dance\/Electronic\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLP (EcoRecord, incl. playing card)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSpeak to Orlando Higginbottom, AKA TEED, about his decades- long relationship with electronic music and words like \"love,\" obsession\" and \"addiction\" soon litter the conversation.

After years touring the world as Fela’s baritone saxophonist, Animashaun stepped forward to lead the legendary Egypt 80 band following Tony Allen’s departure, remaining the group’s musical director until Fela’s death in 1997. He continued on subsequent tours with Seun Kuti until 2016. Lekan began recording his only solo project, Low Profile, in 1977. The album was composed and recorded across sessions at home in Nigeria and on tour with Fela, who both produced the recordings and added keyboards to the album’s title track. ‘Low Profile (Not For The Blacks)’ referenced a government campaign during the country’s 1970s oil boom: “It was inspired by a speech by Olusegun Obasanjo, Nigeria’s military Head of State, when he urged black people to keep a low profile about their wealth and not to behave in a vulgar, arrogant way,” explains Lekan. “I argued that low profile is not just for the blacks, as everyone is human, regardless of race.” On the flip side, the simmering Afrobeat anthem ‘Se Rere’ (which translates as ‘Do Right’) delivers Animashaun’s message of living with integrity: do right, and you will reap what you sow. The song later became the band’s opening number during Fela’s live performances both in Nigeria and internationally throughout the 1980s and ’90s. Despite recording beginning almost two decades earlier, Low Profile did not receive an official release until 1995, when it finally surfaced on Fela’s Kalakuta label. One of only a handful of albums led by core members of Kuti’s band, Low Profile captures a pivotal moment in Afrobeat history. Over time, the original has become a rare and highly sought-after record, and this new reissue places the spotlight back on a modest but influential Nigerian legend. Strut’s reissue features the complete original artwork, is fully remastered by The Carvery, and includes brand new liner notes by Lekan Animashaun himself.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTRACKLISTING\u003cbr\u003eA Side:\u003cbr\u003e1.

Meanwhile, some of Kelley’s most laser-focused drums to date create a sonic chimera that is as likely to be found nascently developing in the early aughts as some unknown, chromatic future.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Saddle Creek","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46928160096412,"sku":"LBJ408MC","price":13.28,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0130\/8714\/6043\/files\/cass_69da2628-8d20-469c-9bd7-1e6288a5e4f8.png?v=1779287732"},{"product_id":"makeshift-art-bar-marionette-ep-red-vinyl","title":"Makeshift Art Bar - Marionette EP [Red Vinyl]","description":"\u003cp\u003eFormat: LP\u003cbr\u003eCatalogue No.: HEIST305LP3\u003cbr\u003eBarcode: 5060603092821\u003cbr\u003eRelease Date: 26 Jun 2026\u003cbr\u003eGenre: Alternative \/ Rock\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNewly signed to indie heavyweights Heist or Hit (Westside Cowboy, Her’s) EP two: ‘Marionette’ has been produced by Daniel Fox (Sprints, Melts, Psychotic Monks, Naked Lungs, Nerves, Ronan Group) and it’s set to be seminal.

Together, they create a record that feels both ancient and immediate: music that evokes old biblical films, sun-bleached Western soundtracks and 70s jazz explorations, while remaining playful, spontaneous and deeply human.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThere’s a strong cinematic undercurrent throughout Reverie. Think Charles Heston wandering through an Old Testament epic; Ennio Morricone soundtracking a desert horizon; Nino Rota scoring Fellini’s Rome; or Pasolini filming in Ethiopia. Minor-key strings, modal structures and unhurried grooves sit alongside echoes of Mingus and Yusef Lateef, with Ori’s baritone sax and flutes guiding the listener through shifting scenes and moods.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMelamed’s influence pulls in another direction: the spirit of 70s rock and psychedelia - The Doors, Woodstock, King Crimson – with organs, guitars and a sense of scale that balances Kaplan’s love of folk traditions, heavy percussion, Klezmer modes and Middle Eastern textures. The result is a careful blend of composition and instinct, where structure is often nudged aside in favour of feel.\u003cbr\u003eThe pair first met during recording sessions for Balkan Beat Box, with Melamed engineering the band’s sixth album. Kaplan quickly realised that Melamed was more than a technician: a musician fluent in piano, guitar, bass and vocals, with an intuitive sense of arrangement.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDespite a fifteen-year age gap, the two shared a musical language, built on curiosity and trust. Reverie captures that connection – a record shaped by craft, but alive with risk and spontaneity.

If you only know Zsela thanks to her dramatic 2024 debut album 'Big For You', the mostly beatless, fully reflective '4 Dreams' might come as a surprise. But look a little further back in her catalogue and things will fall into place; remember 'Angels Pharmacy' and Remembrance' from Actress's 'Karma \u0026amp; Desire'? That was Zsela on vocals, so she's got priors. '4 Dreams' started life as the soundtrack to 'Seven Heavenly Senses', an art exhibition from last year at Paris's Hôtel de la Marine, but has since taken on a life of its own. Zsela's breaths are stretched and sculpted into warm, washing biomechanical pads on the opening dream, left to weather tinny arpeggiated FM synths and muggy bass drones. So far, so predictable. But Zsela muddles proceedings with her confident delivery, layering her voice into jazzy, R\u0026amp;B inflected key changes that keep you guessing. Imagine an astral plane answer to Dawn Richard's ambient-inflected pop and you'll have some idea of where this is headed.\u003cbr\u003eThen 'Dream 2' takes an unexpected diversion, the vocals replaced by swirling harp flourishes and the kind of floating synth stabs that draw a core logic from classic Ambient - Harold Budd, Laraaji et al - then adding extra colors just where necessary. And on 'Dream 3', faint, almost folk-y strings enter the frame, calling out from beyond the horizon, almost blotted out by a synth part that's in the thrall of Gigi Masin's legendary 'Clouds' - the track that ended up being repurposed by Björk on 'It's In Our Hands'. Zsela, Katz and Aged keep that momentum for the final track, too, letting cinematic strings echo around subtle synths and vanishing rhythms, hitting those hypnagogic, tranquil notes that so much contemporary ambient music seems to avoid. 'Cause at its heart, '4 Dreams' is deeper than that, a record that's entrenched in jazz, soul and classical minimalism rather than throwaway numbing music, of the contemporary variety.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Latency","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46929131110556,"sku":"LTNC37LP","price":24.68,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0130\/8714\/6043\/files\/4_a36cd806-c447-47d5-b9d8-2d1c3b34ac9a.webp?v=1779295272"},{"product_id":"fluke-the-second-bite-2lp","title":"Fluke - The Second Bite [2LP]","description":"\u003cp\u003eFormat: 2 x LP\u003cbr\u003eCatalogue No.: SR2601V\u003cbr\u003eBarcode: 4062548134773\u003cbr\u003eRelease Date: 26 Jun 2026\u003cbr\u003eGenre: Dance\/Electronic\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTRACKLIST: \u003cbr\u003eA1 Groovy Feeling\u003cbr\u003eA2 Bullet\u003cbr\u003eA3 Electric Blue\u003cbr\u003eB1 Absurd\u003cbr\u003eB2 Atom Bomb\u003cbr\u003eB3 Reeferendum\u003cbr\u003eC1 Slid\u003cbr\u003eC2 Electric Guitar\u003cbr\u003eC3 Tosh\u003cbr\u003eD1 Freak\u003cbr\u003eD2 The Bells\u003cbr\u003eD3 Life Support\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA significant force in the development of British electronic music, Fluke return to the culture and reinvigorate their forward-thinking library of material on an unexpected and powerful new album, The Second Bite. \u003cbr\u003eDue for release internationally via Surface Records in association with !K7 Music, The Second Bite arrives on limited-edition, double-vinyl gatefold LP.\u003cbr\u003eDriven by principal band members Jon Fugler, Mike Tournier and Julian Nugent, The Second Bite boldly yet subtly reimagines twelve Fluke tracks from different eras of the band, including crossover hits Atom Bomb, Groovy Feeling and Absurd. Retaining their peerless groove and cinematic atmosphere, the band rework each with contemporary production touches and arrangements that invite these ambitiousrecordings into a digital future.\u003cbr\u003eMaking a significant contribution to both rave and chillout sound systems throughout the nineties and deep into the new millennium, Fluke’s progressive sonic philosophy saw the band invited to remix boundary-pushing artists including Bjork, New Order, Talk Talk and even The Rolling Stones, while their original productions were integral to the cult soundtracks of blockbusters The Matrix Reloaded and Sin City.\u003cbr\u003eTheir music remains instantly recognisable to renewed generations of gamers, having featured on the multi-million selling console series’ Need For Speed: Underground as well as seminal racing game Wipeout 2097, for which the band recorded original music to feature alongside The Chemical Brothers, Daft Punk, The Prodigy and Underworld.\u003cbr\u003eRegaining control of their original compositions, Fluke approached The Second Bite with the same sense of creative community and futurist philosophy that has been fundamental to the band since their earliest recordings. Formed on the experimental fringes of London’s nascent acid house culture, informed by a shared love of progressive electronic sounds, Fluke have remained deeply invested in the possibilities of recording technology. Decades later, reunited in a profoundly altered musical landscape, The Second Bite serves as a typically ambitious reintroduction to one of electronic music’s most essential back catalogues.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e“The making of The Second Bite is testament to never selling a sampleror synthesiser, like a voyage of discovery into the dusty end of the lock-up.

The original version is a timeless slice of analog soul: laid-back yet confident, driven by a deep pocket rhythm section, warm horn arrangements, and Doug Shorts’ unmistakably smooth, Chicago-rooted vocal delivery. Written by The Ruffcats and Doug Shorts, the song carries a quiet message of resilience and inner calm, echoing the spirit of classic late-’60s and early-’70s soul without ever slipping into pastiche. On the flip side, Erobique brings his unmistakable touch to the track: playful, groove-heavy, and full of character. Known for his ability to bridge deep musicality with infectious dancefloor energy, the Hamburg-based producer reimagines “I Ain’t Worried” as a loose, funk-infused roller, retaining the song’s soulful heart while nudging it firmly toward late-night dancefloors and sweaty club rooms.\u003cbr\u003eOriginally created in the wider context of the charitable Soul Rabbi – Shine On project, “I Ain’t Worried” has since taken on a life of its own.

Longform, unwieldy, ebbing and flowing. On top of that, every performance the band has ever done has been fully improvised in that spirit.

It’s a perceived split persona shared by some of SML’s most inspiring conceptual bedfellows: compare the extended madness of Can’s Live in Paris 1973 to the relative tight form of Future Days from the same year; the speed-funk chaos of Miles Davis’ Dark Magus to the heavily deconstructed On The Corner or Big Fun.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSpontaneous Music Live removes the curatorial perspective and pulls the curtain back on that search-pluck-reconstruct editing process.

Lim\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOcean Cage is a live recording of Tianzhuo Chen nd Siko Setyanto’s performance Moyang \u0026amp; Seaman – a forking stage work that evolved from the immersive theatre performance project Ocean Cage, sharing the same title.\u003cbr\u003eDirected by Tianzhuo Chen, aka Asiandopeboys, the immersive performance Ocean Cage merges scenography, installation, choreography, and live music into a unified whole. Inspired by the complex whaling traditions in Lamalera, an Indonesian village that preservers ritualised whaling practices and ancestral beliefs, the work unfolds through interconnected trinities – Moyang (ancestor), Lera Wulan (god), and Seaman – all incarnated by Siko Setyanto. It tells a porous story of unlocking the cage of the ocean: receiving ancestral blessing while becoming entangled with misjudgement, misunderstanding, ecological grief, and temporal displacement, until the sacrifice and life cycles move toward equilibrium.\u003cbr\u003eEvolving from this larger narration, Moyang 先祖 \u0026amp; Seaman 漁 師 shifts into a frontal, meditative dialogues between ancestor and seaman. Inspired by Japanese Noh theatre and deeply rooted in Nusantara traditions, the performance integrates music, dance, and stage art into a mutable and fluid process, continuing to explore ancestral presences, cyclical time, and spiritual transformation.\u003cbr\u003eThe album features music by KADAPAT and Nova Ruth, interwoven with Siko Setyanto’s narrations and monologues. KADAPAT’s electronic-gamelan practice moves through interlocking rhythm and cyclical time structures, extending asymmetrical Balinese ancestral yet modern sonic with digital signal. Bamboo and metal, folk and sacred, horizontal and vertical forces collide and co-exist, forming layered pulses that shift and reform in motion.\u003cbr\u003eAs Siko beautifully summarises the creative synergy in Ocean Cage\/Moyang \u0026amp; Seaman: “Being on stage is like sailing together into the unknown – embracing every mystery that comes our way.” The album of Ocean Cage also records the reciprocal, communal, improvisational, polymetric, and relational collaborations among Nova Ruth, Siko Setyanto, KADAPAT and Tianzhuo Chen. No role is fixed; no expression remains confined to its original context. In this sense, Ocean Cage becomes an assembled living being.\u003cbr\u003eOcean Cage is a collaborative release between SVBKVLT and Kuboraum Editions. The limited-edition deluxe vinyl edition features a gatefold sleeve with a sewn-in 16-page booklet, including scenario sketches by Tianzhuo Chen, articles by Dr. Freda Fiala and Milia Xin Bi, and performance photography by Nathaniel Brown and Camille Blake.\u003cbr\u003eBorn and raised in Java, Nova Ruth’s voice emerges from lived cosmology of oneness, where beings are interdependent\u003cbr\u003eand entangled. After nearly seven years aboard the solar-powered sailing vessel Arka Kinari, life at nautical speed has deepened her sensibility of staying with change and challenge. Singing becomes vibration from her body, carrying ecological awareness through shifting currents of fluxes and forces. Siko Setyanto describes his practice as “bodily musicality” – a choreography in which movement and monologues interweave seamlessly with music, allowing the body listen, respond, and compose in real time. On album, his voice retains that immediacy – a trace of bodily musicality translated into sound.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Kuboraum","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46929461805212,"sku":"RAUM8_SBKT77","price":45.58,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0130\/8714\/6043\/files\/2_6af8eb76-6ffa-460e-a4b5-f03757a029bd.webp?v=1779297170"}],"url":"https:\/\/www.horizonsmusic.co.uk\/collections\/republic-of-music-26-06-26.oembed?page=3","provider":"Horizons Music","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
