Angel of the Morning, issued in the EU by Camden Deluxe, is, for all practical purposes, a solid collection of Nina Simone's recordings for RCA, covering the years 1966-1974. These years are not critically regarded as her best -- those are usually reserved for her Colpix and Philips recordings.

It’s often a delight when styles and appearances of the past come back to make a statement in the modern world of artistry. Such is the case with the vivacious Puppini Sisters who, since 2004, have ridden a wave of the burlesque revival and enthralled audiences with their harmony. 2016 sees them release their latest offering of 40s/50s-inspired material. The Sisters’ voices effortlessly dance over the lyrics leaving you ironically speechless at times.

20 июля 2016 года известная британская джаз-фанк-группа Shаkаtаk выпустила свой новый альбом, получивший название "Тimеs Аnd Рlасеs"

Hungarian-born pianist and keyboardist Peter Horvath performs with the who­is­who of jazz such as Victor Bailey, Lenny White, Arturo Sandoval, Randy Brecker, Marcus Miller, and many more. While he is a in demand recording musician on numerous albums his solo career has only seen two albums yet. His debut album Foreign Matter (1995) and his sophomore album Absolute Reality. All original compositions, the music fuses a variety of elements from hard hitting funk jazz with horns, to pieces with latin and straight ahead jazz influences, along with some beautiful mid tempo tunes and ballads, even a solo piano performance to close the album with. The sound represents the musical diversity of the Bay Area along with the influences of years of touring and recording with some of the greats in jazz and beyond.

The band is led by New York-based siblings, Clyde and Gracie Lawrence, accompanied by six other band members. Lawrence blends old school with new sounds, propelling the group on “a mission to write the music they wish “pop” sounded like”. Breakfast integrates pop soul with deeply rooted R&B vibes, all the while pulling classic sounds from musical influences such as The Beatles, Randy Newman, Etta James, Stevie Wonder and Janis Joplin.

Norwegian bassist and composer Mats Eilertsen has a special talent for uniting heterogeneous elements, eliciting deep and touching resonances from them, and letting them sound like a family of beautiful and complementary voices. An impressive example was his recent Memorabilia, a new work commissioned by this year’s Jazz Festival in Trondheim - the town of Eilertsen’s birth - for his trio with Harmen Fraanje (p) and Thomas Strønen (dr) together with the vocals/violin of Trio Mediæval.

Второй альбом молодой французской группы Pj5, которую возглавил гитарист и композитор Пол Джаррет. Музыканты играют современный джаз с сильным влиянием рок и поп звучания.

В 2002 году выпущен сборник романтических композиций легендарного американского певца Фрэнка Синатра.

Start with a sonic atmosphere… then layer it with textures of jazz and electronica… throw in some cool beats, erotic grooves – this what Chillaxing Jazz KolleKtion is about.

Limited reissue of a massively in-demand 1980s soul/funk from the mighty Charles Earland. Originally a soul-jazz organist, Earland turned his hand to a more disco/funk sound later in his career with some seriously explosive consequences as evidenced here on this near impossible to find promo-only release. A firm favourite of discerning DJs such as Gilles Peterson, Theo Parrish and Moodymann, the title track Coming To You Live is is a seriously classy slice of soul heaven with layers of funky slap bass, horns and silky smooth vocals from Earland’s wife Sheryl Kendricks - pure dancefloor dynamite! Flip over for the more mellow yet equally gorgeous and soulful ‘I Will Never Tell’ with its beautiful breathy vocals and masterful organ work.
