Oozing Wound - We Cater To Cowards - VINYL LP

Although the word salon derives from a room in a domestic dwelling (In 1836, Robert Schumann referred to Salonmusik (a term he incidentally coined) as a 'combination of sentiment and piano passage'), it also came to refer to private gatherings of composers and well-to-do members of society congregated in order to appreciate musical performances of a shorter and more varied nature, as distinct from those of longer chamber works. By the 1830s, the musical salon emerged as a vehicle for virtuoso performers who encapsulated the romantic ideals of enhanced emotional subjectivity and greater artistic individuality, with the piano at the center of it all. The charming, off-the-cuff pieces that so delighted audiences up until relatively recently seem to have faded away with the last performers of the romantic tradition. This album serves to illuminate the brilliant music that many of these underrated yet highly talented 19th century composers gave us. '... played with a purity, profundity and sense of dramatic architecture that truly stops you in your tracks. Really, bravo.' (Gramophone, 'Editor's Choice' - VILSMAYR Partitas [FHR38])

With one of the most beloved voices in music, Grammy nominated R&B icon Eric Benit will his 6th album on JUNE 5, 2012 aptly entitled THE ONE. Featuring the first single, InchReal Love, Inch which has become a Top 5 Urba n AC smash, THE ONE marks a moment of positive transition in his life and lyrically speaks to the many new beginnings developing in his career and family including the recent marriage to Manuela Testolini and the birth of his second daughter in December of 2011. THE ONE will also be the first album released on Benits newly formed record tag Jordan House Records, in partnership with EMI. As Benit grew up in Milwaukee in the 1970s - at the time one of the most segregated parts of the US - music was a huge part of his family home, the Jordan house. At the Jordan house you were guaranteed to hear singing, different instruments being played, and a musical celebration happening every time you visited. Music was truly woven into the fabric of his upbringing.
