Beechwood - Songs From The Land Of Nod - VINYL LP

Big Crown Records is proud to present the sophomore full-length from Les Imprimes, Fading Forward. Spearheaded by self taught multi-instrumentalist and producer Morten Martens, this album explores mortality, escapism, and a myriad of experiences associated with love.Martens made a tremendous impression with his highly acclaimed 2023 debut Rêverie and has since cultivated a diehard fanbase whose demographics are as wide-ranging as the influences that shape his music. He mixes tones from '60s and '70s Soul with arrangement nods to Doo-Wop records, takes drum energy from Hip-Hop, and covers the whole thing with vocal stylings from '90s & 2000s Alternative. But it is Martens' lyrics, emotion, and delivery that truly bring everything together and help him stand out from his peers. There's an infectiousness and pop sensibility in the writing that is executed with utmost class and taste, giving Les Imprimés the rare quality of immediate attraction that only deepens the more you listen.Hailing from Kristiansand, Norway, Martens plays nearly every instrument on Fading Forward, produces and arranges the album, and of course sings. InchIt's soul music, but I don't exactly have the soul voice,Inch Morten explains humbly. InchBut I do it my own way, in a way that's mine.InchAlbum opener InchYou & IInch is Morten's homage to his partner who sticks it out Inchthrough the chaos and the blundersInch with him. Punchy drums and cascading pianos make this one a proper two-stepper and an anthem for those lucky enough to find someone who understands them and helps in the parts of life they need it. InchAgain & AgainInch slows the pace and deals with the heavier side of love & life as Martens professes his resilience through the mishaps, the heartbreak, and the let downs of love affairs gone wrong. InchUntainted LoveInch brings the sweet side of new love center stage with a tune that plays

Holiday Musical Treasures- Newly Imagined! Eric Holtan, founder and conductor of True Concord Voices and Orchestra states InchEvery December, True Concord presents it's popular Lessons and Carols by Candlelight concerts in the Tucson area. Unique in the local milieu of seasonal offerings, the focus is on sacred Christmas carols. Even in their simplest form, carols evoke emotionally powerful memories of personal and family experiences that enrich and enliven annual holiday celebrations. With this album, I wanted to capture the essence of our much-loved concerts with the mostly familiar carols presented here, but in musical settings by American composers that are new or not widely known. With the kind assistance of advisor Dale Warland - who set the standard of excellence with several cherished Christmas recordings over the years by The Dale Warland Singers - True Concord offers these holiday treasures, most of which are receiving their world premiere recordings. This is Christmas With True Concord - Carols in the American Voice.InchThis is the group's second album on Reference Recordings. True Concord's first album, InchFar in the Heavens,Inchreceived a GRAMMY® nomination for Best Choral Performance, and composer Stephen Paulus won posthumously the GRAMMY® for Best Classical Contemporary Composition.
