On January 10, 2023, Jeff Beck, a lone genius guitarist who suddenly passed away at the age of 78 while still an eternal guitar boy. To commemorate the 80th anniversary of Jeff's birth, whose original and superb technique that no one could follow was the envy of guitarists all over the world, a number of his masterpieces left by Epic Records will be reissued in four periods on Japanese analog LPs. The fourth installment will release three titles from 1999 to 2003. This work, "Who Else!", is an instrumental work released in 1999 that reacted sensitively to the trends of the scene at the time and adopted programmed rhythms, entering the so-called digital rock realm.

In May 1981 B-Movie and Soft Cell went into Advision Studios in London with the same producer, Mike Thorne (Wire, Bronski Beat, China Crisis, The Communards) to record singles for the label they were both signed to. Phonogram had really wanted to sign B-Movie but had also committed to Soft Cell, having been coerced into it by Stev0, who managed both artists and wouldn’t let them have one without the other. B-Movie commenced recording the dark moody anti-fame anthem ‘Marilyn Dreams’, whilst Soft Cell got underway on a cover of an obscure Northern Soul classic. When both songs were released in July 1981, ‘Tainted Love’ became a worldwide hit and shot Soft Cell to international fame, making them the biggest stars of 1981.

American-Austrian pianist Dalal is captivating audiences with her nuanced and soothing recordings of works by some of the most popular composers in the modern classical genre. With a delicate touch and profound understanding of the style, Dalal offers listeners a tranquil journey through emotive soundscapes. Piano Lounge is an exploration of 36 piano tracks by some of the most popular neoclassical composers of the 21st century, including Ludovico Einaudi, Max Richter, Joep Beving, and many more. The music invites a pause, a moment of stillness in a fast-paced world, creating an atmosphere of pure, calming relaxation, and Dalal's interpretations highlight the signature characteristics of the contemporary masters: flowing melodies, minimalist structures, and a deeply introspective quality. Her previous recordings, including albums dedicated to the beloved compositions of Einaudi, such as "The 50 Greatest Einaudi Pieces" and "The Einaudi Sound", showcase a commitment to preserving the calm and relaxed mood inherent in this music. Dalal's performances are characterized by a clarity and warmth that allows the beauty of these popular compositions to resonate fully.
