Mystery of the Bulgarian Voices Feat. Lisa Gerrard - Boocheemish (Deluxe box set incl. LP, 2CD and - VINYL LP

Released on October 7th, Farm to Table, which also includes recent single 'Heavy Heart', is the second album from Washington D.C. resident Bartees Leon Cox Jr... Born in Ipswich, England to a military father and opera-singer mother Bartees had a peripatetic early childhood before eventually settling in Mustang, Oklahoma. Later, Bartees cut his teeth playing in hardcore bands in Washington D.C. and Brooklyn whilst working in the Barack Obama administration and (eventually) the environmental movement. Since charting a path as a solo artist, Bartees Strange has released two records in quick succession an EP reimagining songs by The National (Say Goodbye To Pretty Boy, 2020) and his debut album proper Live Forever (2020). Where his 2020 debut record Live Forever introduced the experiences and places that shaped Bartees (Flagey Brussels, Mustang Oklahoma), Farm to Table zeros in on the people - specifically his family - and those closest to him on his journey so far. With his career firmly on the ascent, Farm to Table examines Bartees' constantly shapeshifting relationship with life post-Live Forever. It also speaks to a deeper lore that says, don't forget where you came from, and this album is why... Always remembering where he came from, across 10 songs Bartees is celebrating the past, moving towards the future and fully appreciating the present.

Limited box set with SACD including bonus track plus book. 2018 , their first album of new studio recordings in over two decades. Better known to many as Le Mystère des Voix Bulgares (Grammy winner for Best Traditional Folk Recording), BooCheeMish sees the esteemed Bulgarian choir performing together with erstwhile 4AD Records tag mate Lisa Gerrard (co-founder of the duo Dead Can Dance) on several tracks, thereby uniting two of the most distinctive vocal acts working in music. In successfully connecting Bulgarian folklore with other traditions and cultures, the album manages to retain the unique identity of the voices, vocal styles and techniques of the individual choir members, even when allying them with acoustic accompaniment such as stringed instruments and various types of percussion, including beatbox. Once described as the marriage of the avant-garde and the Middle Ages, the magic of the ensemble stems from it's success in mastering Bulgaria's diverse, age-old vocal traditions while simultaneously sounding strikingly modern and original, thanks to the unique choral music structure - multi-part a cappella arrangements that transform it's collective sound into strange colors as if something other than the human voice is being heard.
