It's hard to believe that a legend like Lenny Kaye has never released a solo album before. However, after writing songs and slinging guitar with his musical partner Patti Smith for over half a century, building the canon of multiple musical eras through his Nuggets compilations, producing award-winning albums from Suzanne Vega, Kristen Hersh, Soul Asylum and more, it's safe to say he's been busy adding his own flourishes to others' records and spreading the gospel of garage rock and psychedelic history.

Chelsea Wolfe’s highly anticipated 7th full length. Chelsea Wolfe has always been a conduit for a powerful energy, and while she has demonstrated a capacity to channel that somber beauty into a variety of forms, her gift as a songwriter is never more apparent than when she strips her songs down to a few key components.

Nicola Vicentino was renowned in his day as a music theorist and inventor of the microtonal archicembalo keyboard instrument, but it is the striking harmonic sophistication of the madrigals that keep his name alive today. These world premiere recordings of madrigals from the Fifth Book of 1572 are interspersed with instrumental pieces that explore comparable chromatic universes, including Giovanni Maria Trabaci’s remarkable Toccata e recercar cromatico, and the first instrumental canzona ever published: Canzon la Bella.

Beethoven, who referred to his ten sonatas as “piano-violin sonatas,” was a truly creative genius who was never willing to accept any limitations. His music, in every respect, hovers on the borderline between the “barely feasible” and the “impossible,” as it moves in such spiritual heights where the air is already quite thin for a “mere mortal.”

Fans can now pre-order the album + the ultimate curation of expansive vinyl, CDs and cassette offerings on madonna.com. Madonna sums up her new record best by quoting the first few lines of her song, One Step Away, “People think that dance music is superficial, but they’ve got it all wrong. The dance flooris not just a place, it’s a threshold: A ritualistic space where movement replaces language.” Madonna adds “When Stuart Price and I first started working on this record, this was our manifesto”: We must dance, celebrate, and pray with our bodies. These are things that we've been doing for thousands of years — they really are spiritual practices. After all, the dance floor is a ritualistic space. It’s a place where you connect—with your wounds, with your fragility. To rave is an art. It's about pushing your limits and connecting to a community of like-minded people.Sound, light, and vibrationReshape our perceptionsPulling us into a trance-like state.The repetition of the bass, we don’t just hear it but we feel it.Altering our consciousness and dissolving ego and time. We are now able to release basic assets for you to send to retail immediately.
