Renee Rapp - Bite Me - COMPACT DISCS [CD]

Parody of Pleasure marks Lydia Night's bold solo debut, a consciously pop-leaning collection born from instinct and a of previous inhibitions. Executive-produced by Lydia alongside producer Alexis Kesselman (Suki Waterhouse, Joji), the album reveals the full spectrum of her musicality while retaining the independent spirit she's embodied since age 15, navigating themes of self-discovery and the complexities of modern womanhood with a blend of subversive humor, raw vulnerability, and unapologetic self-possession, ultimately transforming the pop genre into a powerful vehicle for personal confession and catharsis. Reflecting on the making of the 13-track project, Night notes that assuming complete creative control over the album profoundly reshaped her sense of self. InchReclaiming my creativity gave me real confidence and made me feel cool in a whole new way, and I think you can hear that in the music,Inch she says InchI hope that everyone takes whatever they need from the record-but no matter what, I hope that it helps them to feel more love for themselves, because that's what my favorite music has always done for me.Inch

A definitive, comprehensive, chronological record of his entire body of released work. This box set covers the extremely productive period from 1972 through 1976.

The box set features a total of 131 tracks of which 62 are either unreleased songs or unreleased alternate versions, different mixes, rare or live tracks. This version of the box set includes the same 10 CDs and oversized fold-out Archives Poster as the deluxe edition, plus a 24-page booklet (replacing the hard-bound book).

Blistering and hypnotic, 'Ilana (The Creator)' (2019) marked the beginning of a new chapter for Mdou Moctar. It is the Nigerien guitar hero's first album recorded with a live rock band and perfectly captures the heavy, psychedelic sound - part Tuareg desert blues, part ZZ Top - that the quartet had honed through endless touring and which would come to explosive fruition on 'Afrique Victime' (2021) and 'Funeral For Justice' (2024). 'Ilana' was the first step and it's songs remain setlist standbys for the quartet's soaring performances.
