Nach 16 Jahren Funkstille lässt der Magier unter den europäischen Filmkomponisten wieder von sich hören. Komponist und Sänger Frank Duval – einst Hit-Produzent für DERRICK und DER ALTE – präsentiert mit dieser "Best-Of"-CD (auch als Vinyl erhältlich) einige seiner größten Hits, aber auch musikalische Raritäten ("Something is crying", Love me Love), die so noch nie digital erhältlich waren. Aber, und das wird alle Duval-Fans besonders freuen, es gibt auch sechs neue, unveröffentlichte Songs und Soundtracks auf der Scheibe. Insbesondere "Sadness and Hope" oder "Lied der Sehnsucht" sind wunderschöne, sehnsuchtsvolle Melodien, die tief berühren und gefangen nehmen. Allein sie sind es wert, diese CD zu kaufen. Auch der neue Vokal-Song "Ich liebe dich" im typisch mystischen Duval-Sound ist ein gedankenvolles Gänsehaut-Lied, das nachwirkt. Ein exklusives Video von dem Song ist im übrigen auf Duvals Facebook-Seite (Frank Duval Special) zu sehen. Frank Duval – viele füllen Säle, er Seele!

Nashville-based singer/songwriter/pianist Jillette Johnson will release her sophomore album, All I Ever See In You Is Me, July 28 on Rounder Records. With her nuanced lyricism and shapeshifting vocals, Johnson is the rare artist who needs little sonic accompaniment to make an indelible impact. Produced by Dave Cobb (the Grammy Award winner known for his work with Jason Isbell, Sturgill Simpson, and Chris Stapleton), All I Ever See in You Is Me offers up sparsely orchestrated songs centering on Johnson’s spirited piano work and graceful vocal command. Like only the most timeless songwriters, Johnson finds infinite depth within that simplicity, tapping into her quiet intensity and classic sensibilities to capture the subtlest of feelings.

Miley Cyrus’ new album, Younger Now, is out now. As is typical with the child star-cum-pop star-cum-cultural-appropriator-extraordinaire, a new album means an entirely new Miley. Gone are the dreadlocks, the twerking, and the days of doing acid with Wayne Coyne. (In a May 2017 interview with Billboard, the Franklin, Tennessee-born singer exclaimed that she hadn’t smoked pot “in three weeks!”) Here’s everything we know about Miley’s sixth studio album. The album is produced by Cyrus and Oren Yoel.
