Sidonie - Catalan Graffiti - VINYL LP

Limited blue colored vinyl LP pressing. We Jazz Reworks is an idea that repurposes some of the tag's output 10 albums at a time. That is, we invite producers whose music we love on board, and one by one, they tackle 10 albums worth of source material, of which they are free to use as much or as little as they choose. The series evolves chronologically, so this volume being number two, the source material is pulled from We Jazz LPs numbers 11 through 20. The artist has complete freedom. Volume 2 in the series happens with Carl Stone, a legendary figure in creative music. His career spans decades of unlimited musical innovation. Stone's recent output on Unseen Worlds, the tag who has also been instrumental in issuing some of his remarkable earlier work, ranks among the most original art of our time and renders notions such as InchgenreInch virtually meaningless. Here, We Jazz originals by Terkel Nørgaard, OK KO, Jonah Parzen-Johnson and more are met here with a fresh sense of discovery, spun around and delivered ready for the turntable once again.

Limited clear coke bottle colored vinyl LP pressing. A heady and adventurous experience with ever-shifting elements of jazz, fuzz guitar, blues rock and psychedelia! Graffiti's origins can be traced back to 1967 and the dissolution of The Hangmen, a popular Washington DC area garage rock act well noted for proto-punk stylings. The legacy of Graffiti's self-titled debut was seemingly hampered by the fact that that it is often lumped in with the plethora of other one-and-done psych releases of the time, an era in which major labels were falling over one another in an attempt to capitalize on the psychedelic sounds popularized by the Summer of Love. This is unfortunate because Graffiti's approach to songwriting and blending together of jazz, classical, and rock elements are rather groundbreaking, precursors to the arrival of progressive rock - proto-prog pioneers, if you will.

180 gram gatefold LP with poster. Limited Edition White vinyl LP. Another new incredible project is born from the prolific Genoese prog scene, from the minds of Stefano Agnini (La Coscienza di Zeno) and Fabio Zuffanti (Finisterre, La Maschera di Cera, Hostsonaten...), bound by a hidden passion for surrealist, gothic and horror vintage comic books. No coincidence that La Curva Di Lesmo is named after a story written and drawn by the famous Guido Crepax in 1965, in which the character of Valentina appears for the first time, a symbol of women's emancipation and eroticism. Musically, the album consists of three long tracks for more than 50 minutes of solid symphonic/theatrical progressive rock, a rock opera sung, or rather interpreted in Italian. The first part is more adventurous and pushes La Curva Di Lesmo's music towards folk, pop, electronic, new-prog and symphonic atmospheres, unusual even to the two composers. The second part is more classical with a long progressive suite reminiscent of the Zuffanti's work with La Maschera di Cera. References here are Opus Avantra, Il Baletto di Bronzo, Pierrot Lunaire, Semiramis, Cervello; but there are fragments of the Genoese songwriting school (Fabrizio de André) and electro-vintage moments (those of Italian seventies obscure groups as I Guardiani della Galassia, Automat and others). The guests' list is long, and among the various 'prog names' there's a curious appearance by Beatrice Antolini, whose interpretation of InchLa posa dei mortiInch is simply perfect!
