NON RETURNABLE. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eKikagaku Moyo started in the summer of 2012 busking on the streets of Tokyo. Though the band started as a free music collective, it quickly evolved into a tight group of multi-instrumentalists. Kikagaku Moyo call their sound psychedelic because it encompasses a broad spectrum of influence. Their music incorporates elements of classical Indian music, Krautrock, Traditional Folk, and 70s Rock. Most importantly their music is about freedom of the mind and body and building a bridge between the supernatural and the present. Improvisation is a key element to their sound.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe shifting dimensions of Masana Temples, fourth album from psychedelic explorers Kikagaku Moyo,are informed by various experiences the band had with traveling through life together, ranging from the months spent on tour to making a pilgrimage to Lisbon to record the album with jazz musician Bruno Pernadas. The band sought out Pernadas both out of admiration for his music and in an intentional move to work with a producer who came from a wildly different background. With Masana Temples, the band wanted to challenge their own concepts of what psychedelic music could be. Elements of both the attentive folk and wild-eyed rocking sides of the band are still intact throughout, but they’re sharper and more defined.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eMore than the literal interpretation of being on a journey, the album’s always changing sonic panorama reflects the spiritual connection of the band moving through this all together. Life for a traveling band is a series of constant metamorphoses, with languages, cultures, climates and vibes changing with each new town. The only constant for Kikagaku Moyo throughout their travels were the five band members always together moving through it all, but each of them taking everything in from very different perspectives. Inspecting the harmonies and disparities between these perspectives, the group reflects the emotional impact of their nomadic paths. The music is the product of time spent in motion and all of the bending mindsets that come with it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e1. Entrance\u003cbr\u003e2. Dripping Sun\u003cbr\u003e3.

The Chicago-born songstress and rapper says it all in her music. She spits, speaks, and sings straight from the heart without filter or apology. At the same time, she breaks boundaries, dropping off bars with uncontainable charisma and belting out hooks with show-stopping range. She can be romantic in one crescendo before getting raw in a bout of wild wordplay. This versatility consistently affirms her as a force in her own lane. Following her 2011 debut mixtape Winter’s Diary, she dropped projects at a prolific pace, including Alter Ego, Blunts \u0026amp; Ballads, and Boss Up. 2014 saw Winter’s Diary 2: Forever Yours arrive to widespread critical acclaim, landing on year-end R\u0026amp;B album lists from Billboard and Rolling Stone. It also yielded “Treat Me Like Somebody,” which gathered 64 million Spotify streams and counting. A year later, XXL touted her among its coveted “Freshman Class.” Following a stint in the major label system, she embraced independence again with Winter’s Diary 4 [2016], Voicemails [2019], Hopeless Romantic [2020], and A Gift And A Curse [2020]. She collaborated with everyone from Sleigh Bells and Pentatonix to Future, G Herbo, 6lack, and K Camp. During 2021, she served up Heat of the Moment powered by “Rebel” [feat. Jeremih] and “Might Let You” [feat. Davido]. After raking in streams in the hundreds of millions and earning acclaim from Pitchfork, The FADER, HYPEBEAST, and more, she opens up like never before on her 2022 album, Pillow Talk.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eKey Marketing\/Selling:\u003cbr\u003e- Tink exclaims these songs as her realist yet, “Many of these songs were written solely by me, I’m still pushing my pen.

Released in 2005, it defined an entire generation of house music and spawned myriad copycats in its wake as well as making household names of the artists behind it. It became an instant classic that worked as well in cosy clubs as it did on festival main stages and it has remained an ever-green house anthem. The influential track has been sampled many times over the years but nothing beats the original.\u003cbr\u003eThe chunky house drums still sound from the future today, with fleshy hits and warming bass. What makes it such a standout track, though, is the gorgeous melodic hook that rides up and down the scale. Those soft focus notes are full of subtle but playful soul that never fails to unify a crowd, bring smiles to faces, and get hands in the air.\u003cbr\u003eThe first to remix is acclaimed German artist Patrice Bäumel. He is a master of stylish and deep house and techno with expressive synth work on labels like Kompakt and his own HALO. His superb version is a complete overhaul with deeper drums and a sense of late-night tension that is released in glorious fashion when the iconic melody comes in. It's the sort of tune that is suited to 4 am dance floors and will take things to the next level. The second remix comes from fellow German HOSH. For many years a core part of the Diynamic family he is also the founder of the fryhide imprint and an assured underground talent. He layers in some fresh and airy breakbeats to power along an expansive remix. After a long and atmospheric build with plenty of cosmic synth work, the original melody arrives during a breakdown and then plays out over the suspensory grooves.\u003cbr\u003eThis is a superb package that brings a widely loved favourite back to the fore with contemporary remixes and a fresh remaster.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Get Physical","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42305467842716,"sku":"GPM700V","price":14.85,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0130\/8714\/6043\/products\/GPM700V.jpg?v=1674747048"},{"product_id":"rico-friebe-word-value-cassette","title":"Rico Friebe - Word Value [Cassette]","description":"\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eFormat: Cassette\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eCatalogue No.: RELTIME05T \u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eBarcode: 4251804139403  \u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eRelease Date: 14 Apr 2023\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eGenre: Pop\/Singer-Songwriter\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eLP : White 180g Vinyl\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eCassette : Incl.

The loose fit project centres around the singing, playing and songwriting of Ray Monde and Kris Chau and features Kern Haug on drums. The resulting sound arrives as a resourceful analog of plush 60s pop captured through the modest means of a truly independent musical endeavour.\u003cbr\u003eThe sound rendered on Vandalized Statue touches on dubby atmospherics, the lilting breeze of bossa nova and the introverted muse of US indie rock, but the end result is a natural, cohesive whole centered around the songwriting. Imagine the girl from Ipanema sat toking in a comfortable spot in the corner of the dive bar while someone weaves her a tall tale or two, and you might be somewhere in the right direction. The stories in the lyrics unfurl as meandering narratives taking you through everyday exchanges and far-fetched, cosmic scenarios alike. At every turn the cosy musicality gives everything a relatable, homespun charm, even as the mixing desk becomes a mess and the lo-fi FX crash into each other.\u003cbr\u003eThe album will be fronted by three singles which reflect the wide reach of Monde UFO's sound. 'Visions of Fatima' is one of the more melancholic pieces on the album, fronted by laconic organ and centring on cracked vocals with an off key charm that indirectly evokes Jeffrey Lee Pierce. 'Government Employee' is a sun-kissed trip of low-key lounge surrealism, bizarro storytelling and shuffling exotica splendour which broadly defines the woozy mood of Vandalized Statue. 'Garden Of Agony' is a more delicate but no less dreamy piece matching electric tremolo with acoustic fingerpicking balladry which hides its considerable depths behind a seemingly simple arrangement.\u003cbr\u003eAt once intimate and projected into the cosmos, Monde UFO add to the particular path Quindi is taking through hidden corners of independent music with a romantic, restless spirit.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eVITAL SALES POINTS:\u003cbr\u003eSecond album by LA combo Monde UFO on the italian imprint Quindi, a collection of dream pop vignettes and outer rim punk exotica.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eTRACKLIST:\u003cbr\u003eA1.

It’s rarer still to capture that feeling on wax, which is what The Mattson 2 have achieved with their latest album, Paradise. It’s their second release on Chaz Bear’s (fka Chaz Bundick, aka Toro y Moi) Company Records, and first without Bear as a member of the band. The identical twins, Jared (guitars) and Jonathan (drums), have left their trademark virtuosity on display; within the 32-minute runtime they’ve managed to capture the arc of an entire relationship between two people. You can tell from how warm the guitars sound — we go from emotional equilibrium to longing to happiness to loss. “For years and years you’ve been on my mind,” they sing, and mean it. When the Mattsons sing the line “you’re so special, you’re so easy” it’s easy to forget they’re not talking to you.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eEven so, it’s a record to throw a frisbee to — it’s a sylphlike, sylvan thing, meant to be used and enjoyed. “We don’t want people to think too hard,” they say. “We want to let people in!” That’s perhaps because it’s the first album they’ve written and recorded in their home, which is a wooden cabin in the hills of San Diego. You can hear the sun in the keyboards, in the 80s-inflected jazz. The singing is new, too. What it adds up to is a bigger, bolder sound than their previous work; the brothers say they went into it trying out a conceptually new, cohesive sound — a new sonic palette to create from. It’s a little bit of summer you can savor all year long.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThey’ve been playing shows for 15 years without any vocals; on Paradise, though, the twins have added their voices to the mix, which adds a welcome new human dimension to the record. “No matter how much someone loved the instrumental set they’d ask if we sang!” Jared said. Even so, the lyrics are meant to be abstract, to conjure a mood. If you listen closely you’ll be able to discern what the Mattson brothers are feeling. There’s longing, in songs that are about getting what you want and realizing it’s not actually the right thing; there’s lyrics about not being free, in both the capitalist system and in the creative one. There’s a song about a loved one dying from an overdose. There are deep themes here, even if the subjects are treated lightly.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eOn “Naima’s Dream,” which opens the album, the Mattsons lock into a buoyant melody; it sounds like the feeling of lying in a park on a carefree, sunny day, watching the dogs chase the people throwing frisbees in the distance. That feeling carries through the rest of the album, too; on “Essence,” which describes a relationship in progress. “You’re so special, you’re so easy,” the Mattsons sing over a lush guitar arrangement propelled by a truly grooving bass line.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe range of human experience is vast, and the Mattsons have managed to capture a piece of it in stunning detail. Being alive demands every kind of adjective: difficult, boring, fun, sustaining, affirming, renewing, reviving, strenuous, punishing, arbitrary, unfeeling, inconvenient, and everything in between. The slice that the Mattsons describe in this album is uniformly sweet, but inflected with the knowledge of how quickly things can change, and how, most of the time, it’s hard to recognize that they’re changing until the metamorphosis is already complete.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eTracklisting\u003cbr\u003e1.

Going the same route that came to define their sound throughout the years, Branko Novakovic and Niklas Schäfers cook a savvy mix of deep electroid flavours and prog techno magnitude which flourishes in the long-playing format. Orbiting the frontier between proper no-nonsense, floor-focussed effectiveness and a trademark exploratory take on electronics, Hidden Empire here delivers one of their most accomplished slices to date, which not only spans the largest span of their many-faceted influences, from tribal anchorage to hypermodern escapology, but breathes a truly epic wind into it.\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eDraped in luscious, silken envelopes and easternmost ambiences, \"Dawn\" gets the ball rolling on a mystique-imbued note, halfway meditation-friendly material and square-shouldered club busting wares. Moving into Afro-infused house grounds, \"Modesty\" finds Branko and Niklas heading for the deeper end of the spectrum, as they pull out a clinically precise blender of rattling percussions, opaque incantations, lush synth swashes and verbed-out machine talk, tailored for nightly boogie rituals in the forest. \"Avalanche\" opts for a more brooding, deadlier approach. Cutting its path away from prying eyes, this one finds Hidden Empire pulling the stealth weaponry to absolute hypnotic effect - perfect for serious in-between peak time business with its thick, thriller-like tension, mist-shrouded atmosphere and surgical focus. Featuring Felix Raphael on vocals, \"Who We Are\", is a pop-influenced chugger that perhaps best defines Hidden Empire's ambivalent style, both hi-NRG and innervated with a melancholy that infuses down to the bass and most functional elements. Geared up for big-room traction with its seesawing synths and clinical drumwork, Raphael's moving timbre does more than offer a sensible counterpoint to the track's overall sturdy backbone, it takes it to a whole other dimension completely.\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\"Repeat The Good\" ft. Wolfson balances out a fast-ticking groove with those subtle melodic lines Hidden Empire champion to astounding vibrancy, offering a particularly satisfying glimpse into their vortical imaginarium, whereas \"Last Call\" has us journeying to straight out Moroder-esque territories, flush with the aptly configured palette of fuzzy space disco bass, fast-paced Italo churn and vocodized talk for good measure. All in breaks and chopped-up euphoria, \"Vivid\" runs the hoodoo down in muscular fashion and with impressive levels of energy throughout, all set at cranking up the heat one notch further, while \"Rebel\" provides us with the kind of rough-around-the-edges EBM horsepower and neon-clad synth engineering that'll get the basement in a state of alert. Encompassing all of the pair's idiosyncratic merger of styles - from pop-laced Italo to spaced-out techno wares, through jagged motorik and heavily mecched-out jacking house, \"Alright\" shows off Hidden Empire's wide arsenal of pyrotechnics under the most compelling of lights. A more openly jagged and quirky weapon that hatches into a full-fledged solar number around the half, \"Momentum\" roars up the club's highway at full throttle, proving a formidable asset when it comes to plunging dancers into a state of weird, left-of-centre euphoria. \u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eA stroboscopic eclipse is predicted as \"Dark Sun\" enters the room, deploying its obscure wingspan over the ravers, not quite a bad omen as it lets more light in with every bar, its brittle piano lines and heart-wrenching vocals cutting a path into the crowd's pulsating hearts. Graceful as Hidden Empire's music can be, a moment of utter exhilarating beauty. \"Savasana\" wraps up the voyage with a pure slab of cyphered 4x4 seduction, as an ASMR-like voice guides us across the soul-questioning haze that blankets our pathway onto a luminous finale. A piece of elusive nature, clearly designed for the club and yet telling a tale of off-piste initiation through twelve fascinating movements, \"Momentum\" will undoubtedly etch on the listeners' mind as one of the German pair's most strikingly powerful emanations.\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e* Tracklist: \u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eVinyl: \u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eA1 Who We Are w\/ Felix Raphael\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eA2 Alright\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eA3 Dark Sun\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eB1 Last Call\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eB2 Repeat The Good w\/ Wolfson\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eB3 Momentum\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eDownload:\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e1.

RATIONAL SOUL's debut EP, \"SELF TITLED\", is going to define a new era on the dance floor, reimagining 140 beats that typically are stereotyped into narrow catagories. \"SELF TITLED\" will become the worldwide definition of a style never heard before, sought after and inevitably copycatted by those inspired.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWith no surprise, 2023 is set off to a paramount start for the German SATURATE! label, with an EP that “is the future of Leftfield Bass, Trap, and Hybrid Grime” and “it’s going to define a new era on the dance floor, reimagining 140 beats that typically are stereotyped into narrow categories.” The mastermind behind such a project, called SELF TITLED, is RATIONAL SOUL a Virginia-based, veteran electronic music producer. The EP is coming out in full on January 13, digitally and on vinyl, and it features six originals and four remixes. What sounds like a disorienting emptiness at the beginning, makes perfect sense when read as part of the overall narrative of the composition. “One moment you’re living happy-go-lucky, almost like it’s the script of a Disney movie, the next moment you’re questioning why you exist- how is it you’ve become a slave to the 9 to 5? Phone by your side as digital anti-anxiety medication, entertaining yourself with something nostalgic to remind yourself of better times…war against yourself, to reset your identity.” The fight against this subconscious condition was RATIONAL SOUL’s starting point while writing SELF TITLED. The artist’s attempt to light a lighter to ignite a spark in our consciousness and thus reveal the void in which we are immersed. “Wake up” he seems to want to tell us. Don’t be a pawn, be a player of your life. Let’s riot against this status quo and, quoting RATIONAL SOUL himself, “Let’s be gangsta and fuck shit up because we are mad at why our world is falling apart: twerk on a cop car with a fine cigar in your mouth type beat.” He then concludes by spilling one, big truth, “what better genre of music could describe these feelings than bass music?” How could we not agree?\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e* Tracklist: \u003cbr\u003e1.

The Chicago-born songstress and rapper says it all in her music. She spits, speaks, and sings straight from the heart without filter or apology. At the same time, she breaks boundaries, dropping off bars with uncontainable charisma and belting out hooks with show-stopping range. She can be romantic in one crescendo before getting raw in a bout of wild wordplay. This versatility consistently affirms her as a force in her own lane. Following her 2011 debut mixtape, “Winter’s Diary,” she dropped projects at a prolific pace, including “Alter Ego,” ‘Blunts \u0026amp; Ballads,” and “Boss Up.” 2014 saw “Winter’s Diary 2: Forever Yours” arrive to widespread critical acclaim, landing on year-end R\u0026amp;B album lists from Billboard and Rolling Stone. It also yielded “Treat Me Like Somebody,” which gathered 64 million Spotify streams and counting. A year later, XXL touted her among its coveted “Freshman Class.” Following a stint in the major label system, she embraced independence again with “Winter’s Diary 4” [2016], “Voicemails” [2019], “Hopeless Romantic” [2020], “A Gift And A Curse” [2020], and “Pillow Talk” (2023). \u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eKey Selling\/Marketing:\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e First single from this album, “Toxic,” was strongly supported by Spotify, Amazon, Apple Music, Pandora, YouTube, Tidal, SoundCloud, \u0026amp; Audiomack.\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e “Toxic” landed playlist features at Spotify, Amazon, YouTube, and Audiomack.\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e Press support from V, LA Times, amongst other notable outlets.\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e Follow-up to 2022’s “Pillow Talk” album which included the radio smash, “Cater” (feat. 2 Chainz) as well as other favorites, “Goofy,” “Switch,” \u0026amp; “Mine,” \u0026amp; “Opposite.”\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e “Thanks 4 Nothing” features guest appearances by Ty Dolla $ign \u0026amp; Yung Bleu.\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e Spotify Stats: 849.6K followers \u0026amp; 1.96M monthly listeners.\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e XXL magazine’s “Freshman Class of 2015” feature artist.\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e Tink has released 8 mixtapes, 2 EP’s, and 3, now 4, albums.\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e Two of her singles from previous releases have been certified RIAA gold - “Cut It Out” \u0026amp; “Bottom Bitch.”\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e Made her network television debut last fall on “The Kelly Clarkson Show.”\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e Timbaland made headlines in 2015 by indicating at SXSW that Aaliyah had appeared to him and described Tink as “the one.”\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e Forthcoming single LP will be pressed on 3 Color A Side B Side - Sky Blue+Orchid+Magenta.\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eTracklist: \u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e1.

It is available in digital format as well.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAr Ais Arís is Gareth Quinn Redmond’s fortuitous love affair with the art of tape loops - a practice he discovered while performing with Ross Chaney and Myles O’Reilly in late November 2020. Fascinated, he spent months experimenting with the technique: \"By cracking open the shell of a cassette, cutting the tape and splicing the ends together, I created repeating sound loops of varying lengths. After reassembling and slotting the cassette into the Tascam Portastudio, I recorded and played back the sounds of the tape loop. These sounds were then manipulated using the pitch wheel to make subtle and warbly inflections to the recordings. This is achieved by speeding up or slowing down the playback speed of the tape, which offers dynamic contrasts in both mood and texture.\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe result is 8 deliciously enchanting minimalistic tape loops creating a very rare kind of daydreaming environmental music full of accidental miracles and dusty soothing backdrops.

It catches the band at its peak and features 10 songs, including not only their impeccable hit, \"What’s Your Voodoo?\" but a full arsenal of yet unheard, timeless, and soulful music without equal. The songs on the album, which were recorded between 1988 and 1991, could be considered forerunners of the downtempo genre, with one foot in the late 1980s street soul direction but sparkling with touches of synth pop and contemporary jazz-funk. Genre limitations aside, all that Ghia ever wanted to do was create music—good music—and you will hear this in the depth of the compositions.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWhether you agree or not, \"This is\" may easily be considered one of the best German late 80s\/early 90s soul pop and downtempo albums ever recorded. Cautiously, it may even be submitted as the missing link between mid\/late 80s soul by bands such as Sade, and later trip-hop groups like Massive Attack. Let us celebrate Ghia and their music, which had been shelved for more than 30 years but has now finally been released on The Outer Edge.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe album starts with \"Keep Your House In Disorder,\" which has yet again become another classic song from the band’s catalog since it was featured as the B-side of the \"What’s Your Voodoo?\" reissue. The song is about a relationship in which the woman has trouble adapting to her boyfriend's turn in life. He tells her to \"keep your house in disorder,\" meaning don't take things too seriously, don't stand still, and you will do better to take the sideroads in life.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\"This Is\" continues with the downtempo numbers \"Crystal Silence\" and \"Close to You.\" Both are deep, one-of-a-kind, and previously unissued street soul ballads. On these two tracks, you can still hear the band’s roots in jazz-funk. Hence, as a follower of the band's output may have yet recognized, instrumentals of these two tracks can be found on their first LP, \"Curaçao Blue.\" In fact, \"Close to You\" was one of the band’s first compositions. Earlier recordings of the song exist with different singers and different vocals, but it wasn’t perfect until Lisa laid down the final version and a choir was added. It’s difficult for us to recall any late-80s soul tune as beautiful and intriguing as this one. The final section, which begins with \"so much baby we can say,\" sounds ahead of its time, reminiscent of mid-90s contemporary R\u0026amp;B.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eNext up is \"Eskimo,\" an equally brilliant and soulful downtempo composition, but with more focus on synth sounds than the previous tracks. Once more, it showcases the creative lyricism of the song writers, Boberg and Simon, imagining a train ride during a rainy and cold night: \"feeling like an Eskimo in an igloo in New York.\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eEskimo leads to the aforementioned classic, \"What’s Your Voodoo?\" Originally released in 1991 on the small Mikado label, it was reissued on our label in 2019. We already called this \"one of the most wonderful and mystic slow motion synth pop tunes ever recorded\"—and we still mean it! Let’s face it: this was done before British bands like Massive Attack, Tricky, and Portishead laid the foundation of trip-hop. Dare we call Ghia’s music \"proto trip-hop\"? As a special bonus, the digital version of the LP features a previously unreleased mix of the song, which includes added samples; this should clarify how close Ghia actually was to the sound of the mid-'90s. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\"Angel On Your Shoulder\" and \"L O M E\" are two more completely unissued and great tracks from the band's shelved works. Being a bit more uptempo than the rest of the album, they fall between contemporary soul\/R\u0026amp;B and synthesized pop music. And of course, another downtempo hit needed to be featured on the album: \"You Won’t Sleep on My Pillow.\" It was the original A-side of their single release in 1991, and since then it has been featured on various compilations.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe album concludes with a really strong ballad entitled \"I Haven’t Got The Power.\" Here we hear only pianist and keyboardist Lutz Boberg with Lisa Ohm, without further instrumentation. Basically recorded in a live session, this showcases once more the talent and ingenuity within the Ghia project.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003eWhether you agree or not, \"This is\" may easily be considered one of the best German late 80s\/early 90s soul pop and downtempo albums ever recorded.

Linval Thompson\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAvantroots is one of the leading dub related labels in recent years taking the genre to its furthest and freshest perspectives while still respecting the history and the figures inside it. One of those historical figures is the legendary Linval Thompson who's credits and list of those he influenced are pages long. \u003cbr\u003eTo have Linval be the lead on this project truly makes this a unique and special release. 'World Crisis' is Linval's message and it is as definitive as ever. There is a lot of thought put into each step and portion of this project. The overall traditional dub concept is to feature different voices over the same instrumental where this, flips the script and each version has a different electronic music producer add their talents to create their own signature account. The result is an extraordinary and well composed EP. Deepchord, Deepnaut, Pulshar and Braulio Lam were specifically chosen to head up this treasured task of taking 'World Crisis' into their realms.\u003cbr\u003eThe Deepnaut version is a true essence of the future of a more mature island late night cultured dub techno sound. The track shimmers in a euphoric glow that covers you like a sun on the beach in summer. Linval's voice is front and center and one could say this may be the most single oriented as it uses the most vocals of any of the renditions here. Braulio Lam's submission has all the makings of a classic styled dub track. While the beat is transcendent, everything else is processed in a new school way. And the technique is next level to be clear. Next is Deepchord's version. To say this is the deepest and most techno might not be much of a surprise. The groove is addictive and the chords sampled into the rhythm while the melody ebbs and flows are pure magic. Lastly, Pulshar breaks things down to the starkest of the choices and one of the most hypnotic. Pablo Bolivar and Sergio Sainz Vidal from Pulshar have a knack for injective some serious island vibes to the electronic scene.\u003cbr\u003eThe artwork is also special here. It respects the history of dub culture while advancing the application as it uses AI generated images combined with human elements. The pictures support the message of the 'World Crisis' speaks on by Linval Thompson. This is a special release no doubt. Avant-Roots are very happy with the variety offered by the artists of their label and this release. They shined when it came to harnessing the essence of this track and infusing it into their particular version of electronic dub.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Avantroots","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42374506709148,"sku":"AR055","price":14.26,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0130\/8714\/6043\/products\/AR055.jpg?v=1677591622"},{"product_id":"minimono-half-way-trough-pt-2","title":"Minimono - Half Way Trough (Pt.2)","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eFormat: 12\" Vinyl\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eCatalogue No.: BOSCO050.5\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eBarcode: 4251804138918\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eRelease Date: 24 Mar 2023\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eGenre: House\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eHere you have the second EP part of Minimono \"Half Way Trough\" mini saga.\u003cbr\u003eBosco050.5 follows the sound of the previous one serving four most exciting electro, italo-disco and acid infected floor burners!\u003cbr\u003e\"Run it Back\" is a simple and dry tune, has those big cutting edge sounds typical of the early 2000 80's contaminated electro.. perfect for your starting set or in recreating that unique atmosphere.\u003cbr\u003eOn the A side follows \"Half Way Trough\", an effortlessly driving tech-acid house tune, strangely compelling, with a timeless feeling.. looking like an essential weapon for any dancefloor.\u003cbr\u003eB side starts with the spicy electro-disco tune \"Over The Machines\" epic and functional at the same time with evocative arpeggios and a mechanical vocodered speach.\u003cbr\u003eThe Ep ends with the cyberfunk stomper \"Revolution\" , a twisted electro funk groover in typical Minimono vein.\u003cbr\u003eFabio Della Torre and Ennio Colaci celebrate this 50th.5 release on Bosconi in great style, remodernising the sound that they used to like when they first met in the early 2000, under the influence of those Berlin labels like Areal, Sender, Festplatten, Funkhaus, Beautycase, Lasergun, Gigolo.. and all of those labels who trademarked the sound of those unforgettable Berlin days.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eTRACKLISTS:\u003cbr\u003eA1.

That’s just mad.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThankfully, Belgian producer, DJ -and yes, label owner- UC Beatz didn’t ask our opinion when he started Entrepot Records in 2014 and we’re glad for it. It’s been a total success story for him and an inspiration for independent artists all around. His releases quickly gained momentum, all sold out in weeks and with that, helped him establish his name as stylish deep house producer with his own sound.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFast forward to 2023, and we find UC Beatz on labels such as Classic Music Company, Razor ‘n Tape and now we’ve his debut on Heist for you. There’s no need for him to go from shop to shop this time, because we’re sure people will jump on this record the minute it hits the shelves.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eUC Beatz delivers a stunning 5 track EP with guest appearances from Marina Trench and Tour-Maubourg. The EP sees the artist go from euphoric sample house (Orchid’s Wish) to his classic pad-driven sound on tracks like Purple Corner Fig and Blu Thang. The EP would be good without the collabs, but UC Beatz found a perfect match in style with fellow Heist artist Marina Trench on ‘Make me feel’. His co-production with Tour-Maubourg sees the duo dive deep into a classic Chicago deephouse vibe and deliver the most ethereal track of the EP.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eYours Sincerely,\u003cbr\u003eMaarten \u0026amp; Lars\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Heist Recordings","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42374512279708,"sku":"heist069","price":16.15,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0130\/8714\/6043\/products\/heist069.jpg?v=1677591830"},{"product_id":"dresvn-atom-in-hand-ep","title":"DRESVN - Atom in Hand ep.","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eFormat: 12\" Vinyl\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eCatalogue No.: SUE027\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eBarcode: 4251804141635\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eRelease Date: 24 Mar 2023\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eGenre: House\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eCosmic Tonebank Musik from Dresvn\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"SUED RECORDS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42374521323676,"sku":"SUE027","price":14.26,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0130\/8714\/6043\/products\/SUE027.jpg?v=1677592100"},{"product_id":"swamp-children-taste-whats-rhythm","title":"Swamp Children - Taste What's Rhythm","description":"\u003cp\u003eFormat: 12\" Vinyl\u003cbr\u003eCatalogue No.: BEWITH019TWELVE \u003cbr\u003eBarcode: 4251804138505\u003cbr\u003eRelease Date: 19 May 2023\u003cbr\u003eGenre: Post Punk\/Jazz\/Funk\/Balearic\/Factory Records\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e2023 reissue, 140g vinyl, remastered from the original tapes by Simon Francis.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eManchester's Avant-Jazzy-Funk outfit Swamp Children were enviably eclectic and Taste What's Rhythm is their mini masterpiece. Flitting gracefully through a feast of genres with consummate ease, the band were almost indefinable and, accordingly, nigh-on impossible to market. So whilst this cult EP, originally out in 1982 on Factory Benelux, remains in demand for those in the know, it has also glided under the radar of many otherwise clued-up heads for over 40 years. If you don't know, get to know…\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWorking directly with James Nice, custodian of Factory Benelux, means that the audio for this re-issue of the classic EP comes from the original tapes. Cut at 45 RPM and released in the house Be With disco sleeve, we’ve made sure this record is well up to the job of having a permanent place in every DJ’s bag. As far as we’re concerned, this is essential stuff.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe Taste What's Rhythm EP was originally released in 1982 on Factory Benelux (an informal partnership between the legendary Manchester-based Factory Records and Belgium-based Les Disques du Crépuscule). With it's kaleidoscopic brightness, silky panache and superb execution, it remains one of the most startling documents of a remarkable time and place. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe EP opens with the oh-so-Balearic title track. \"Taste What's Rhythm\" gently unfolds with a Spanish guitar, hazy, drifting vocals and sun-bleached Latin percussion. After this most sumptuous of intros, the tempo is raised, the rhythms grow in complexity as horns jostle amidst the restrained chaos quite wonderfully. And then it winds down again. Proper fluctuating rhythms and tempos throughout. I guess that was the point - taste the variety! \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e“You’ve Got Me Beat” is a *perfect* piece of post-punk pop-jazz. A mysterious, after dark jazz-dancer, the aching vocals serve as a touching, tender resignation to love. A guitar hook which seems to elegantly reference The Blackbyrds' \"Rock Creek Park\" and a flowing pulse from New York's No Wave scene. It still sounds so fresh all the years later. \u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003eClosing out this most perfect of EPs, the twisted synths and nimble rhythms of bass-heavy roller \"Softly Saying Goodbye\" combine to create a super-slinky gem; Brit-Funk of the highest order. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSwamp Children formed in Manchester in 1980, around core members Ann Quigley (vocals), Tony Quigley (bass, metalaphone, percussion), John Kirkham (electric \u0026amp; acoustic guitars, metalaphone, percussion), Ceri Evans (keyboards, bass, percussion, background vocals), Cliff Saffer (saxaphone, clarine) and Martin Moscrop (drums, percussion, trumpet). They initially practised at a rehearsal space shared with fellow post-punk funkers A Certain Ratio and Joy Division\/New Order. Young and relatively inexperienced upon getting together, the ages of Swamp Children's members ranged from just 16 to 19. Talk about the brilliance of youth. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFrom the outset, Swamp Children shared DNA with A Certain Ratio. Martin Moscrop was a founder member of Ratio, while Ann provided artwork for them. Although the close association with ACR led some to assume that Swamp Children were simply a splinter group, the new band pursued a more overt latin and jazz tinged direction, at the same time adopting a post-punk attitude towards making music, influenced by the records they were listening to at the time: Miles Davis, Brazilian jazz fusion and heavy funk dancefloor sides.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe band made their live debut at Manchester's infamous Beach Club in May 1980. Thanks to a double-booking blunder another support band turned up and were turned away, having travelled all the way from Dublin for a string of British dates. The name of the unlucky band was U2...\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWith arrangements that emphasised Tony Quigley’s darkly-coloured basslines (and Ann Quigley’s impressionistic vocals as another instrument in the mix) Swamp Children possessed an easygoing grace and a bubbling energy which indicated that the band's true strength was as an ensemble. The band’s musical sophistication (a fusion of funk, jazz, and bossa nova) would prove to be a strong influence on later UK acts like Sade. Indeed, Swamp Children themselves later mutated into the more known and acclaimed latin jazz outfit Kalima. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e* Tracklist: \u003cbr\u003eA1 Taste What's Rhythm\u003cbr\u003eB1 You've Got Me Beat\u003cbr\u003eB2 Softly Saying Goodbye\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Be With Records","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42384775119004,"sku":"BEWITH019TWELVE","price":17.08,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0130\/8714\/6043\/products\/BEWITH019TWELVE.jpg?v=1678027190"},{"product_id":"kikagaku-moyo-kikagaku-moyo","title":"Kikagaku Moyo - Kikagaku Moyo","description":"\u003cp\u003eFormat: LP\u003cbr\u003eCatalogue No.: GGB013LP\u003cbr\u003eBarcode: 606825444007  \u003cbr\u003eRelease Date: 26 May 2023\u003cbr\u003eGenre: Psychedelic\/Rock\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e2023 REPRESS . \u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003eKikagaku Moyo 1st self-titled album reissue\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eOriginally released by Cosmic Eye Records in Sep 2013.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eKikagaku Moyo’s debut album exerts an elemental power. Enlivening their sound with sitars, percussive drums, theremins, wind instruments and ethereal vocals, the band manages to sound powerfully spacious and lazily serene all at once. Their songs can be light as air, or heavy as earth. Many evolve out of intense experiences of engagement with the natural world. The album’s first track, “Can You Imagine Nothing?” was written over a night spent jamming on a suspended footbridge in remote mountains. As the song progressed the bridge began to sway, making band members feel as though they were floating weightless in midair.\u003cbr\u003eKikagaku Moyo started in the summer of 2012 busking on the streets of Tokyo. Though the band started as a free music collective, it quickly evolved into a tight group of multi-instrumentalists. Kikagaku Moyo call their sound psychedelicic because it encompasses a broad spectrum of influence. Their music incorporates elements of classical Indian music, Krautrock, Traditional Folk, and 70s Rock. Most importantly their music is about freedom of the mind and body and building a bridge between the supernatural and the present. Improvisation is a key element to their sound.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eTracklist:\u003cbr\u003eCan You Imagine Nothing?, Zo No Senaka, Tree Smoke, Lazy Stoned Monk, Dawn\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Guruguru Brain","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42384828203164,"sku":"GGB013LP","price":38.68,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0130\/8714\/6043\/products\/unnamed_0c5d4d7f-1d77-4c61-9629-5af843b934eb.jpg?v=1678033035"},{"product_id":"kikagaku-moyo-forest-of-lost-children","title":"Kikagaku Moyo - Forest Of Lost Children","description":"\u003cp\u003eFormat: LP\u003cbr\u003eCatalogue No.: GGB031LP\u003cbr\u003eBarcode: 9504281135228  \u003cbr\u003eRelease Date: 26 May 2023\u003cbr\u003eGenre: Psych\/Folk\/Prog\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePressed on black vinyl.

Ryu Kurosawa had been studying Sitar in India, upon returning home he found the perfect outlet for his practice.\u003cbr\u003eSince 2013 the band has released three full lengths, an EP, and several singles. They have toured Australia, the United States, Europe, Australia and Japan extensively. Kikagaku Moyo love to connect with people through performing, whether they are playing in a barn deep in a Swedish forest, on a desolate Mediterranean beach, or beside a sleepy river at 2014’s Levitation Fest they bring out the magic in everyone present.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eTheir delicate use of melody and soft vocal harmonies contrast seamlessly with fuzzed out sitar riffs and feedback.

The Bronx-based band - that later went on to form heavyweight disco outfit GQ - originally released this treasure in 1976 and it's long been a hard to find record. It's also rare to find a record this hard. Captivating funk at its rawest, no doubt.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eStorming out the gate with the rollicking Loft\/Garage staple \"Can You Feel It (Part 1)\", the listener is immediately put on notice that this LP is just a little bit special. The title track, \"Soul On Your Side\", is a classic dancer and the basis of GQ's future hit \"Disco Nights\". But it's perhaps \"Zone\", a huge Baldelli track, that the record is best known for. Hypnotic psyched-out cosmic-disco \/ cosmic funk, it's an unrelenting groove that really thrusts the party into hyperdrive. With doses of scintillating Latin and pulsating African rhythms driving the pumping tune, atop an unstoppable bassline and imaginative, soul-slathered keyboard figures, it's basically a full-on funk assault. You might need a lie-down after this.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBut there's no let-up on the B-Side, immediately grooving thanks to \"Funk-N-You\", a laidback glider that just rolls in the sleek style. Gorgeous harmony skills are displayed on \"Street Dreamin'\". Beautiful and gritty funk, by turns. \"You're My Last Girl\" is an airy ballad with two leads before the legendary \"Monterey\" enters the fray. A much-sampled instrumental and heavy disco-funk nugget, it contains an amazing B-Boy drum break making the whole LP worth the price of admission. \"Can You Feel It (Part 2)\" closes out this spectacular set.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe Rhythm Makers had been gigging around New York City since the late ’60s, having initially come together as Sabu and the Survivors, named after bassist Keith “Sabu” Crier.

It quickly becomes clear that this is a real capacity record: 6 (on vinyl) or 8 pieces (on electricity) from the cosmos of a man who means business.

She will tour Europe this year.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eMidori released two solo albums: \"Through The Looking Glass\" and \"Tree Of Life\" and wrote music for Tadashi Suzuki's theater plays. Her hypnotic, minimalist music is based in the concept of coherence between sound and the human body. She performs solo on marimba and other percussion instruments.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eShe debuted on the scene of Berlin Philharmonic, performing with the RIAS Symphonie-Orchester Berlin just after graduating from Tokyo University of the Arts in 1974. She continued her career with solo concerts in Japan and abroad.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn the 1980s Midori began to explore the traditional music of Asia and Africa. Her fascination resulted in joint projects with Kakraba Lobi from Ghana, Lamine Konte from Senegal, Farafina Band from Burkina Faso, and Korean musicians: zither player Chi Seong-Ja, flute player Won-Il, and saxophone player Kang Tae-Hwan. She also led Mkwaju Ensemble's innovative percussion project and still performs with free-jazz band Ton-Klami with Kang Tae-Hwan and jazz pianist Masahiko Satoh.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn the past 20 years, Midori Takada spent more time in theaters than in concert halls - composing and performing live music for theater. She regularly works with Tadashi Suzuki and his Suzuki Company of Toga on their adaptations of \"Electra\" and \"King Lear\".\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eTakada's compositions have a remarkable way of affecting the imagination. Her minimalist, contemplative music is filled with the concept of infinity and reminds us of a moon voyage, falling stars, a journey into the ocean, or a walk in the garden. The trans melodies, initially simple, begin to loop and splinter, their rhythm breaking and thickening, slowly drawing the listener into another reality.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eEvery live performance Midori Takada gives is unique and prepared especially for that occasion.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"WRWTFWW","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42391380656284,"sku":"WRWTFWW018LTDBV","price":44.15,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0130\/8714\/6043\/products\/WRWTFWW018LTDBV.jpg?v=1678361924"},{"product_id":"hako-yamasaki-tobimasu-lp-180g-heavy-350gsm-sleeve-stickers","title":"Hako Yamasaki - Tobimasu (LP,180g,heavy 350gsm sleeve,Stickers)","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eFormat: LP\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eCatalogue No.: wrwtfww079\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eBarcode: 4251804140430\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eRelease Date: 21 Apr 2023\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eGenre: Folk, Alternative, Psychedelic\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eTracklisting LP\u003cbr\u003eA1.

Tobimasu is also available in digital formats.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eOriginally released in 1975 on legendary independent label Elec Records, Tobimasu is a masterpiece of melancholy carried by one of the most beautiful, moving, melodic, and haunting voices in the history of Japanese music. An extraordinary singer and guitar player, Hako Yamasaki wrote the album at only 18 years old, showing incredible emotional maturity and music making skills, and creating, out of nowhere, a downright classic of folk music, brilliantly arranged and sequenced.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eHako Yamasaki’s folk is bluesy, psychedelic, soft, and poetic, perfectly fitting the themes of nostalgia, love, and nature she covers with heartbreaking intensity. Her songs capture sorrow ravishingly, offering glimpses of empowering hope and uplifting wisdom.

Yantra then is a reminder of the powerful, loopy and trippy techno, which Faki (amongst all the newfound sonic explorations) has still not lost his appetite and knack for. A genuine counterpart, Shri Yantra then picks up elements of its predecessor, reframed in an enveloping breakbeat journey through time and space.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eGoing past the constraints of his previous work, Faki’s signature style is still very much audible on this EP, while also showing how there are still endless possibilities to develop.

A beautiful and vital debut album, it was first released on Vertigo in 1970. Original copies are now very tricky to score and, like all the Nucleus records, it’s aged ridiculously well. This Be With re-issue, re-mastered from the original analogue tapes, shows off just why this deserves to be back in press.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eGenius trumpeter and visionary composer Ian Carr was one of the most respected British musicians of his era. He was a true pioneer and saw the potential in fusing the worlds of jazz with rock, just as Miles Davis and The Tony Williams Lifetime did in the US. In late 1969, following the demise of the Rendell-Carr quintet, and tiring of British jazz, Carr assembled the legendary Nucleus. Regarding music as a continuous process, Nucleus refused to “recognise rigid boundaries” and worked on delivering what they saw as a “total musical experience”. We can get behind that.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eUnder bandleader Carr, Nucleus existed as a fluid line-up of inventive, skilled musicians. This constant evolution and revolution was all part of the continuous musical exploration and discovery that took jazz to new levels. And the music has kept relevant. To steal a line from a review of our re-issue of Roots, when it comes to anything Nucleus “it’s basically already hip-hop”.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe very title Elastic Rock could be regarded as the group's MO, describing a melting point between their rock and jazz impulses. Indeed, housed in a memorable gatefold jacket designed by Roger Dean, the die cut molten teardrop shape on the front sleeve opens to reveal a fiery volcanic crater. On the back, Dean's drawing has Carr with saxophonist Brian Smith, guitarist Chris Spedding, drummer John Marshall, bassist Jeff Clyne and sax, oboe and pianist Karl Jenkins in a circle, the central core of a movement and the basis for its activity. \u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003eRecorded over four days in January 1970, Elastic Rock didn't sound like any other British jazz album. Exploding out the gate, \"1916\" opens with Marshall's frantic pounding before melancholic horns enter. The smooth title track, \"Elastic Rock\" is just a gorgeous electric blues track. Light drums, gentle melodic horns, piano and a solid bassline serve as the perfect bed for Spedding's graceful bluesy guitar melodies. The serene \"Striation\", a Clyne and Spedding collaboration, is led by bowed bass and is the epitome of calm before the late night laid back vibe of \"Taranaki\" breezes along sweetly and smoothly with great trumpet and tenor.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe truly emotional \"Twisted Track\" is elegant with horns, while guitar is gently played with drums and bass. Initially deeply soothing, it gradually builds with various solos and duets. \"Crude Blues (Part 1)\" features an excellent oboe part by Jenkins with laconic guitar helping out. \"Part 2\" is livelier, with a heavy backbeat and great wind parts. \"1916 (Battle Of Boogaloo)\" features a steady bassline and great call and response parts from the horn section. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe highly-charged centrepiece of the record, the mesmeric epic \"Torrid Zone\" features an hypnotic bassline and hi-hat with some of the ensemble's best soloing. Brilliantly encapsulating the jazz fusion aesthetic so desired by the group, the rhythm section is rock-influenced but magically retains a laid-back jazz vibe. Just perfection. Spacey jazz in the style of In a Silent Way, the semi-ambient \"Stonescape\" features smooth, muted brass, warm, smokey keys and a barely-there rhythm section. Heavenly. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe bubbling, fragile restraint of \"Earth Mother\" partially utilises the \"Torrid Zone\" bassline but takes the energy in a different direction with Marshall's frenetic drumming and Spedding's unpredictable riffing. Next comes the very idiosyncratic drum solo track by Marshall in the appropriately-titled \"Speaking for Myself, Personally, in My Own Opinion, I Think.\" The album closes with the raucous \"Persephones Jive\", a track that ends the album frantically, riotously, just as it began. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis Be With edition of Elastic Rock has been re-mastered from the original Vertigo master tapes, Simon Francis’ mastering working together with Cicely Balston's cut at AIR Studios to weave their usual magic with these wonderful recordings.

To steal a line from a review of our re-issue of Roots, when it comes to anything Nucleus “it’s basically already hip-hop”.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWe'll Talk About It Later is arguably Nucleus's best album. Not only that, it's in the top 5 of all fusion albums. By the time Nucleus entered Trident Studios in September 1970 to record Elastic Rock's successor, they had already won a best group award at the Montreux Jazz Festival. Once again presented in a Roger Dean designed die-cut gatefold sleeve it continued to demonstrate the chemistry and interplay that worked so brilliantly on Elastic Rock; Carr's sumptuous trumpet and flügelhorn lines, Karl Jenkins's funk-filled electric keyboards, Chris Spedding's wah-wah guitar, Brian Smith's sax and the rhythmic foundation of drummer John Marshall and bassist Jeff Clyne. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe group work and insane musicianship Nucleus were famed for is in evidence from the off. The intensely funky \"Song for the Bearded Lady\" is absolute FIRE, blasting out the speakers to leave listeners floored. Counterpoint riffing segues into a spacious groove and a Carr trumpet solo demonstrating the influence of electric Miles from the period. The stop-start funk of \"Sun Child\" would appeal to Soft Machine devotees whilst the genuinely touching \"Lullaby for a Lonely Child\" is a lovely downtempo ballad. Featuring an understated, reflective horn line from Carr and Smith and atmospheric, shimmering bouzouki from Spedding, there's an exotic flavour which contributes to the bliss. The ominous, sleazy title track retains a swaggering menace and is not the only track to lend a sort of heavy stoner rock atmosphere. The guitars and bass are deep and low throughout, conjuring heavy psych moments to go with the actual jazz and even funk. To say this album was in conversation with Bitches Brew would not be overstating the sheer brain-frying brilliance. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe Weather Report-adjacent \"Oasis\" opens Side B, a colossal track featuring nearly 10 minutes of steadily building melodic horns, keys and choppy guitar riffs. So ace, it could easily go on for another 10. Mesmeric. Spedding adds unique vocals to the undeniable groove of \"Ballad of Joe Pimp\" whilst saxophonist Smith's duet with drummer Marshall at the conclusion of \"Easter 1916\" - inspired by the Yeats poem about the Irish nationalist uprising in Dublin - adopts the wildness of the most incendiary free jazz. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis Be With edition of We'll Talk About It Later has been re-mastered from the original Vertigo master tapes, Simon Francis’ mastering working together with Cicely Balston's cut at AIR Studios to weave their usual magic with these wonderful recordings.

The outstanding Solar Plexus, the much-loved third album from Ian Carr and Nucleus, was first released on Vertigo in 1971. Inevitably, original copies are now very tricky to score and, like all the Nucleus records, it’s aged ridiculously well. This Be With re-issue, re-mastered from the original analogue tapes, shows off just why this deserves to be back in press.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eGenius trumpeter and visionary composer Ian Carr was one of the most respected British musicians of his era. He was a true pioneer and saw the potential in fusing the worlds of jazz with rock, just as Miles Davis and The Tony Williams Lifetime did in the US. In late 1969, following the demise of the Rendell-Carr quintet, and tiring of British jazz, Carr assembled the legendary Nucleus. Regarding music as a continuous process, Nucleus refused to “recognise rigid boundaries” and worked on delivering what they saw as a “total musical experience”. We can get behind that.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eUnder bandleader Carr, Nucleus existed as a fluid line-up of inventive, skilled musicians. This constant evolution and revolution was all part of the continuous musical exploration and discovery that took jazz to new levels. And the music has kept relevant. To steal a line from a review of our re-issue of Roots, when it comes to anything Nucleus “it’s basically already hip-hop”.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWe'll let Ian describe this one: \"I wrote Solar Plexus' last year with the help of an Arts Council grant. It is based on two short themes which are stated at the beginning (Elements I \u0026amp; I1). The first theme is angular and has a slow, crab-like movement: the second theme is direct, simple and diatonic. CHANGING TIME and SPIRIT LEVEL explore the first theme and BEDROCK DEADLOCK and TORSO explore the second one. SNAKEHIPS DREAM tries to fuse both themes. (The title is a reference to the famous dancer 'Snakehips' Johnson).\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSolar Plexus features the same lineup as Elastic Rock and We'll Talk About It Later, but they're augmented by six guests, three of which play brass. Carr himself had almost full control of the writing and it does feel very different to the previous albums. It's more of a jazz record loosely based on a rock foundation rather than jazz fusion jamming. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe haunting synth-and-bass soundscape \"Elements I and II\" opens the album in dramatic, experimental fashion. It gives way to the bright, funky feel-good jazz of \"Changing Times\". An elegant onslaught of horns, courtesy of guests Kenny Wheeler and Harry Beckett, ride a solid groove for the duration. How the brass refrains have eluded samplers is beyond us. The melancholic \"Bedrock Deadlock\" features the brooding majesty of Jenkins' oboe and Clyne's mournful, skittering double bass. Wah wah guitar, drums and funky percussion then take over before the horns ride us out over frenetic beats. The dark, angular \"Spirit Level\" is a real highlight, by turns harmonic and beautiful then dissonant and wayward. Wonky jazz with no apparent structure or melodic bones. Regardless, it represents a great showcase for each virtuoso performer. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe breezy soul of \"Torso\" feels like a breath of fresh air, skipping along in the uptempo style with guitar, horns, drums and bass. A track which truly sounds scintillating, featuring sax solos, fantastic propulsive interplay from all the group around the halfway stage before Marshall gets his chance to really shine in closing out with a polyrhythmic drum solo. Final track \"Snakehips' Dream\" stretches cooly out over 15 minutes to round out a spellbinding album. An epic, suave groove, it's a relaxing piece with warm electric keys, laconic guitar and languorous horns. Truly sophisticated soulful jazz. An absolute masterclass. We could easily listen to this all day long.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis Be With edition of Solar Plexus has been re-mastered from the original Vertigo master tapes, Simon Francis’ mastering working together with Cicely Balston's cut at AIR Studios to weave their usual magic with these wonderful recordings.
