Doesn't the beginning of "The Step" sound like Pink Floyd's "Run Like Hell"? Maybe. It does for a tic anyway, before vocalist Nic Offer starts emoting all cool over eight layers of bass, spidery guitar, horns, and drums that wait patiently for the break. And when that break finally arrives, it falls out of the verse like Franzia from silver Mylar. Party time, baby! Let's keep it going with the bass groove of "Hammerhead," or "KooKooKa Fuk-U"'s chattering cool-part-of-town disco. On this, their self-titled debut for Gold Standard Laboratories, !!! trash the axiom that says bands influenced by angular post-punk must be populated by dour misanthropes who sport wallet photos of Ian Curtis. "If you're looking for a friend/You can kiss my ass!" Offer declares on "KooKooKa Fuk-U," and encourages suicide for - wait for it - someone else…

Embark on a series of Voyages through the late solo piano music of Brahms with pianist Leopoldo Erice as your guide. Brahms has been Erice's treasured travelling companion throughout his life, from growing up in Spain to travelling as a musician. He has chosen to perform the music of Brahms at key moments in his life - from celebration to loss - and feels a particular kinship with these later works, which are increasingly recognised as miniature masterpieces for their extraordinary structural integration and harmonic subtlety. Erice refers to Brahms's late piano works as miniatures with a symphonic soul, explaining in the album booklet: It's as though in his later years he stripped away everything nonessential, committing only the purest essence of his music to the page. The album features the Seven Fantasies, Op. 116, the intimate Three Intermezzi, Op. 117, and the two sets of piano pieces Opp. 118 and 119. These are works that in their relatively brief duration distil the essence of late Brahms: at once forward-looking and valedictory, introspective and daring, reflecting his remarkable imagination in all its rich complexity.

Can't Say I Ain't Country is the upcoming fourth studio album by American country music duo Florida Georgia Line.

Whether playing solo, with a trio, a full-on electric band, or an orchestra, adventurous jazz pianist and composer Hiromi Uehara is as likely to meld post-bop and funk as she is pop and classical – sometimes in the same composition. Beginning with her 2003 debut Another Mind, she challenged genre classifications with her technical command of the instrument, her dynamic sense of harmony, and a complex rhythmic sensibility. Spiral, recorded live in 2005, was cut direct-to-disc with a studio trio. In 2008, she and Chick Corea recorded a series of piano duets at Tokyo's Blue Note.

Mirrors is a 1975 album by Peggy Lee on A&M Records. The album is made up of neo-cabaret "art songs" sung by Peggy, written and produced by rock & roll pioneers Jerry Leiber and Mike Stoller and mostly arranged & conducted by Johnny Mandel.

His previous work includes scores for the films "Venom: The Last Dance" and "Hustle," as well as various television projects.

Takenouchi’s enduring passion and respect for the work of female British composers has led to high-profile recording engagements focused on this area of the repertoire. He was invited to make recordings for the BBC Radio 3 of music by Hélène de Montgeroult, Doreen Carwithen and Johanna Müller-Hermann, amongst others, as part of the station’s initiative, the ‘Forgotten Women Composers Project’, and, with duo partner Simon Callaghan, released ‘Danza Gaya’, a critically-acclaimed album of music for two pianos by British composers Madeline Dring, Dorothy Howell and Pamela Harrison.

Cellist Inbal Megiddo brings remarkable freedom and expressive depth to Bach's timeless masterworks in this new recording of all six Cello Suites. The rich, resonant voice of her 1923 Giuseppe Fiorini cello perfectly complements her interpretive approach. This complete traversal of the suites demonstrates why Bach's solo cello works continue to inspire and challenge performers centuries after their composition.

Music For Dreams have been setting the quality benchmark for Balearic and downtempo music for decades, and this latest compilation finds the Copenhagen-based label in as fine a fettle as ever. It's something of the proverbial "game of two halves", admittedly: acoustic, downtempo and near-ambient moods dominate in the first half, and cuts like 'Drommer Om En Dag' and 'Poesia' will perhaps appeal most to specialist buyers. But things get a lot more rhythmic from around the halfway mark onwards, taking in lavish 70s-style disco from Santino Surfers, tropical/Latin vibes from Boogie Rookie & Whodamanny, surging prog from DJ Disse and driving house/acid from WALTHER & Boy George - while on 'Un Buen Sueno', DJ Pippi & Willie Graff invent a whole new musical cocktail that we're naming 'operatic dub" right now!

Spotlighted singers include Vinnie Monte, Rick Randell, Frank Cherval, Dean Randolph and many more.

Newly Remastered & Expanded with 6 Bonus tracks. Humble Pie’s critically acclaimed second album was all set to launch the band into superstardom when their record label suddenly collapsed, taking the album out of UK record shops just 4 MONTHS after going on sale, while in the USA, the album was not released. ‘Town And Country’ appeared in the UK quicker than it disappeared – released in November 1969, barely three months after the band’s debut album ‘As Safe As Yesterday Is’. Immediate Records announced it was bucking the trend by releasing the new album early in order to capitalise on the debut LP’s Top 30 success, a No.4 hit single in ‘Natural Born Bugie,’ plus acres of press generated by music journalists fascinated by a new ‘supergroup’ formed by one-time Small Faces frontman Steve Marriott, Peter Frampton from The Herd, powerhouse drummer Jerry Shirley and ex-Spooky Tooth bassist Greg Ridley.

The Subways Celebrate 20 Years with Career-Spanning Collection ‘When I’m With You’ Two decades after their explosive debut Young For Eternity, Gold-certified UK rock trio The Subways mark their 20th anniversary with When I’m With You — a dynamic compilation capturing the heart and grit of one of Britain’s most enduring live bands. Alongside the release, the band announce a major UK and European headline tour: The Subways For Eternity. Bursting into life with debut single Oh Yeah, the tracklist plays like a perfectly curated live set — The Subways' natural habitat — featuring classics like With You, I Want To Hear What You Have Got To Say, and Kalifornia. Fan favourites We Don’t Need Money To Have A Good Time and Kiss Kiss Bang Bang sit alongside highlights from 2023’s acclaimed Uncertain Joys, including You Kill My Cool and the title track. Closing with the anthemic Rock & Roll Queen, the band’s cultural impact is undeniable — from Guy Ritchie’s RocknRolla and The OC to global ad campaigns and iconic US TV performances on The Late Show with David Letterman, Conan O’Brien, and Craig Ferguson.

A noteworthy fact: Marais, in his five books of Pièces de viole, published only two suites for two viols and continuo. Aside from the two suites for three viols (Book IV), all the other pieces are intended for the solo instrument with accompaniment of harpsichord, theorbo or a second viol in different combinations.
