The Dø
Both Ways Open Jaws


"Truly impressive, The Dø gracefully pull off the kind of intriguing 'oddness' the likes of Florence Welch strain and wheeze for, and with better tunes"
- BBC

 
"With Both Ways Open Jaws, the duo continue their exploration of freak-pop, along with strengthening their own relationship as collaborators.  Solid, folk-infused indie pop/rock with a decidedly experimental lean. - Consequence of Sound

Piers Faccini
My Wilderness

"Mr. Faccini's music is rooted in English folk, American blues, traditional West African music and taranta from southern Italy.  If you're looking for a point of comparison, think of the early 70's music of John Martyn and Nick Drake with an international flavor"
- Jim Fusilli / Wall St. Journal

Natacha Atlas

 Mounqualiba- Rising: The Remixes



After two highly acclaimed string driven, predominantly acoustic projects, Natacha Atlas returns to the Global Dance-floor with the Mounqaliba Remixes. Globally celebrated singer Natacha Atlas' latest release Mounqaliba was a decidedly acoustic affair, recorded with a 20-piece Turkish ensemble and a chamber orchestra & integrating western and Arabic styles. Mounqaliba (which means being in a state of reversal' in classical Arabic) was a stunning set of original songs, evocative interludes, and a beautiful version of Nick Drake's classic "Riverman".
 
From her days singing with Transglobal Underground to her seminal solo releases, Natacha is acknowledged as a pioneer in fusing Middle Eastern and Electronica styles. The Mounqaliba Remixes finds the vanguard of the global fusion world paying homage to one of the most distinctive & beautiful voices in modern music.
 
Remixers Beats Antique, Nickodemus & The Spy From Cairo, Cheb i Sabbah, Bombay Dub Orchestra, Syriana, David Starfire, Kaya Project, Radiohiro, DoGbeaTs, Zab Spencer, Another Fine Day, The Kaya Project, 310, EarthRise SoundSystem, Basha Beats take Natacha's latest opus into new directions ranging from lush ambient journeys to dynamic rhythmic explorations.

The Real Tuesday Weld

 The Last Werewolf



What does an album mean anymore unless it has a narrative behind it?

The Real Tuesday Weld album The Last Werewolf takes Glen Duncan's novel as the backdrop for a widescreen emotional cabaret tailor-made for the iTunes generation.  
The album is both a high concept single piece and a diverse playlist for the eclectic of ear and heart, all in the band's own genre 'Antique Beat'.  The book's themes of violence, friendship, transformation, love and betrayal are recast as a suite of songs bound together in a soundtrack by voices and readings from the text.  

As ever with an album by The Real Tuesday Weld, individual tracks cover a spectrum of styles from thirties ballads and torch songs through gypsy jazz and electro-swing to minimalist electronica.  A range of influences including Gainsbourg, Chopin, Django Reinhard, Cole Porter, Springsteen, Barry Adamson and Tom Waits hover ghostlike over the story as it develops.

Da Cruz

Sistema Subversiva
Out now!



The ensemble Da Cruz is a collaboration between vocalist Mariana Da Cruz (a Paulista with Bahian roots) and Swiss producer Ane H. Together with their band, they merge Brazilian music, Electro, Afro Beat, Breakbeats, Ethiopian Grooves, Kuduro and other forms of dance music. 



Da Cruz stand for a "modern, curious and proud Brazil", says Mariana. "There are so many boring clichés about my country. With my music I try to show  that there is a Brazil far away from Carnaval, bikinis and samba-plumes – there is also an urban, progressive, open but still romantic Brazil with a sane respect towards its traditions and culture."

Dear Friends and Fans of Cheb i Sabbah:

Recently, our dear friend and musical pioneer Cheb i Sabbah was diagnosed with Stage 4 stomach cancer at San Francisco General Hospital. He was advised that the cancer was spreading to his liver and left lung. Without immediate and proper treatment, the prognosis given is very grim. The phrase "weeks maybe months" was repeated to a devastated group of close friends and family who were there to support him as he received the heartbreaking news.

Upon learning of his condition, a few close friends and artists have come together to rally around Chebiji and assist him with his fight. Devastated by the news and outraged that an artist of Chebiji's caliber cannot afford to care for himself and receive the proper urgent medical treatment needed, we have set up a fund to help.
To donate and for more information visit:

chebisabbah.org


PLEASE NOTE:  Even though we have met our initial goal, please continue to donate in order to help defray the massive costs of Chebi's ongoing care.

Cinema

Cinema is Karsh Kale's most ambitious album to date. Despite the myriad of influences pulsating through him during the two years it took to produce, many of the compositions were written on an acoustic guitar or piano – often while Karsh was either on the road, or in a studio. But as the title Cinema suggests, the process of scoring films has had as much impact on this album's sound as Kale's usual palette of progressive electro-rock and fusion influences. Cinema is the aggregate of these diverse inspirations, experiences and musical expressions within one cohesive vision.





In a career which spans over a decade and includes albums as the vocalist for the band Niyaz as well as solo albums and soundtrack work, Azam Ali has confirmed her place as one of the most prolific, versatile, and gifted singers on the world music stage today. On her third & latest solo release, From Night to the Edge of Day, Azam performs unique and gorgeous renditions of various lullabies from the Middle East. The power & beauty of these songs, transcends cultural boundaries and results in a record that is both achingly beautiful and accessible.

"Ali makes music seem so effortless, so much so that it's becoming harder and harder to distinguish between her person and the music that she creates. Another beauty from a woman fully deserving of that adjective."

- Derek Beres reviewing From Night To the Edge of Day in The Huffington Post
