herbie hancock is one of the most prolific jazz pianists of the 20th century. a child prodigy, he played with the greats such as donald byrd and miles davis. he was one of the first to embrace and master the electric piano, but he always stayed true to the acoustic sound.
music on vinyl is re-issuing this hancock gem for the first time since 1973!
pressing on 180 grams audiophile vinyl.
it has been four long years since glissando released the critically acclaimed >with our arms wide open we march towards the burning sea< and the duo finally return this november with a new record >the world without us<. the new material bares glissandos trademark of ethereal voices and tip-toing piano melodies but the overall sound is richer and more expansive. epic swells of strings and guitars sore above the drones and field recordings to create an intense yet fragile noise. this lp is a highly limited deluxe package of just 300 copies, including code for free mp3 download of the full album.
formed of laura lee on bass, mark speer on guitar, and donald “dj” johnson on drums, khruangbin’s sounds are rooted in the deepest waters of world music infused with classic soul, dub and psychedelia. their 2015 debut album ‘the universe smiles upon you’ was heavily influenced by 60’s and 70’s thai cassettes the band listened to on their long car journeys to rehearsal in the texan countryside. ‘con todo el mundo’ takes inspiration not just from south east asia but similarly underdiscovered funk and soul of the mediterranean and the middle east, particularly iran.
re-issue of the iconic 1997 album by buena vista social club on heavyweight 180 gram double vinyl in gatefold sleeve, including download code and 20 page booklet. mastered from the original analogue master tapes by bernie grudman.
