The Belbury Poly: The Owl'due south Map (Ghost Box) LP
Belbury Poly is Jim Jupp, co-founder of the Ghost Box label with Julian House and a notorious lover of analog electronics circa 60s/70s such as the Radiophonic Workshop or Raymond Scott. 'The Owl'south Map' originally bankrupt through the space-time continuum in 2006, setting some other flag point in the evolution of Hauntological thinking. In comparison to the fractal sonic tapestries of Julian House, Jupp's sonics tend towards synth-driven sequences with slightly longer track lengths, we're not talking Tangerine Dream way side-long trips, merely more ordinarily hovering around the pop-perfected iii min mark. In both its aesthetic and audio, 'The Owl's Map' unnervingly harks dorsum to the same kind of educational TV-for-schools programmes which were viewed past at least ii generations of UK schoolchildren, programmes whose mystical/mythical undercurrents and fantastical subject matter were hugely reinforced by their accompanying electronic soundtracks. For many UK children, these programmes were the first fourth dimension we would experience electronic music placed in a context similar this, and at such a formative historic period would irrevocably alter our relationship with music. This is the subliminal stuff that probably soundtracked many a nightmare/dream, which may get some way to explaining the huge impact it had on certain corners of cloak-and-dagger music today.

Azymuth: s/t (Farout) LP
Far Out Recordings present a reissue of the seminal debut album from Azymuth, Azimüth, originally released in 1975. Having never seen a vinyl release exterior of Brazil, Azimüth is considered a milestone in Brazilian music. Azymuth — Jose Roberto Bertrami, Ivan Conti, and Alex Malheiros, as well equally Ariovaldo Contesini — formed in the late '60s just as Bone Mutantes released their debut record (1968). Whilst Mutantes were honing a psychedelic "Amazonian" version of western pop music, Azymuth were creating a futuristic, electric interpretation of United states jazz — besides driven by the same rootsy Brazilian "swing" that Mutantes had harnessed. Bertrami was the drive behind Azymuth's sound — a control freak and musical genius obsessed with the latest technology who wanted to use it to push button the boundaries of music in a style that no ane else in Brazil had done. His use of keyboards has drawn comparisons between Azymuth'south work and Herbie Hancock's early '70s output, nonetheless with its Brazilian swing Azymuth'southward electrical jazz sound is unmistakably their own. Conti is an impulsive and an incredibly energetic drummer. Alex Malheiros, who learned his trade playing from the chief of Brazilian swing Ed Lincoln, is one of Brazil'due south original groove masters. Bertrami rose to fame as an arranger in the mid-60s, and past the tardily '60s he was arranging for the queen of Brazilian music, Elis Regina. Released in summer 1975, the anthology was a minor commercial success selling 200,000 copies. Opening track "Linha practise Horizonte" — a sublime piece of melancholic electronic saudade where deep cinematic synths melt into gently strummed acoustic jazz guitar — was called for a Tv set novella and went on to sell half a million, propelling Azymuth onto the Brazilian music scene. The rest of the album doesn't disappoint — "Melô Dos Dois Bicudos" sees Azymuth plugging them into the Brazilian national filigree for a slice of electrified psyched out samba funk with crashing armed services drums, shrieking sirens and psych synths. "Brazil" is a lolloping bass led groover with Bertrami's melody giving the track a charming, innocent naivety, and "Caça A Raposa" is a boogie jazz funk groover. Azimüth is the anthology that kick-started it all for them, the record that was the blueprint and definition of their "samba doido/crazy samba" sound. Comes in a gatefold sleeve; 180 gram vinyl; Edition of 500.

Boris: Honey (Sargent House) LP
"We don't feel comfortable calling Dear a return to our slow and heavy manner," says Tokyo'south amplifier worshipping experimental metallic establishment Boris. "We've been heavy since mean solar day 1." And information technology's truthful. From the dawdling thunder of their Absolutego debut and through the cinematic crescendo of albums like Flood, the bombastic licks of the Heavy Rocks records, the punk rage of Vein, the bottom-home psychedelia of Akuma no Uta and Pink, and the grimy thump of Attention Delight and New Album, Boris has ever attempted to search out new ways to level listeners with their sound. In the 25th yr of their existence, the trio delivers Dear, an album they describe every bit "heavenly-far beyond heavy." Though Boris has traversed a broad swath of sonic territories, they take e'er been consistent in their embracing of excess, pushing their myriad of approaches and stylistic forays to points of intoxicating absurdity. But a time came in the early years of their third decade where the band wondered if in that location were any new horizons to explore. Consequently, it was decided that the band would begin jamming on material for what was planned to be a record that served every bit a formal goodbye to fans. In a strange twist of fate, being unencumbered past expectations and having an open-ended approach to the writing procedure reinvigorated Boris. The renewed vitality yielded an album that fortifies their monolithic wall of sound while besides assuasive the individual ring members to explore the nuances and intricacies of minimalist riffs played at maximum book. Songwriting for Dear initially yielded three albums' worth of textile by the end of 2015, but as the band was slated to spend a large chunk of 2016 on their "Performing Pink" worldwide tour, they decided to concord off on releasing any new textile. The tour further rekindled their passion, and when the band returned home they wrote several more than songs and scaled the three records downwards to ane. "At the very first moment, this album began equally some kind of potential adieu note of Boris. Nevertheless, it became a sincere letter to fans and listeners…y'all know, like 'Dear so-and-so, this is the new album from Boris' or something like that. Nosotros feel so grateful we can release this anthology in our 25th anniversary yr."

She has created a various and vast (albeit generally unreleased) discography of popular, folk, country, gothic, rock, punk, dejection, and children'southward songs. Light In The Cranium Records is very excited to continue its Lee Hazlewood Archive Series with Rose Colored Corner, a drove of intimate recordings Lynn Castle made with Jack Nitzsche in 1966 and her complete recorded output with Lee Hazlewood on LHI Records. For the showtime time ever Lynn is sharing recordings from her personal archive and telling her story. In the 1960s Lynn became the commencement lady barber in LA merely as long pilus on men became hip. Past day she was styling The Monkees, Boyce and Hart, Del Shannon, Sonny & Cher, the Byrds and countless others…by night she was writing songs. Despite lacking the desire to self promote and a crippling insecurity that made information technology difficult to sing in front of anyone, her songs managed to curve the ears of such manufacture heavyweights as Phil Spector, Jack Nitzsche and Lee Hazlewood. "It was and so hard to get me to sing," explained Castle. "I had buried it and so low, I didn't call up I was good at all. Lee heard my songs and thought I was fabulous. He said, 'Oh my god, you're really good! Let's cut a record.' Her sole 1967 45 "The Lady Barber" b/west "Rose Colored Corner," released on Lee Hazlewood Industries is a slice of psychedelic pop heaven. A total length album was never completed, but her thin demos with Jack Nitzsche give the listener a peek of what i might take sounded like. If you are familiar with Nitzsche's mid-60s work with Tim Buckley, Bob Lind, and Buffalo Springfield…you tin squint your ears and imagine her songs bejeweled with lush strings, finger cymbals, and delicate harpsichord. Instead, the songs remained unheard until now. Just because her songs weren't recognized at the time doesn't diminish their magic. This music is meant to be found and heard. Though commercial success may remain elusive, sometimes strange premonitions are realized… "When I was young, making music in the '60s, I had this strange idea that i mean solar day I would be this sometime woman, and young people would come find me and tell me that my music meant something to them." – Lynn Castle

Born equally Florian Fricke's brainchild, Popol Vuh needs picayune introduction, the ring stayed active between the late 1960s & late 1990s (until Florian's passing in 2001). Regarded as pioneers in avant-garde German electronic music, their early on works practically laid down the foundations for 'Kosmische Muzik' (Space Music) with the then new sounds of the Moog synthesizer joined with ethnic percussions. Later the group evolved to include all kinds of instruments (both electrical and acoustic alike) shrouding their music in a spiritual & introspective mystical aura. Popol Vuh influenced many other European bands with their uniquely soft merely elaborate instrumentation, which took inspiration from the music of Tibet, Africa and pre-Columbian America. With music sometimes described as "ethereal", they created soundscapes through psychedelic walls of sound, and are regarded as precursors of contemporary 'world music', as well every bit of 'new historic period' and 'ambient'. Popol Vuh regularly contributed soundtracks to the films of Werner Herzog that include classics similar 'Aguirre', 'Nosferatu', 'Eye Of Glass' & 'Cobra Verde'. 'Agape-Love' was one of Florian Fricke's favorites, at a point in his life where he was inspired by 13th century Farsi poet Rumi. Still utilizing a choir for Gregorian dirge-like ethereal intensity — though they sing in Byzantine scales – the band delves deeply into the drone world of Fricke's sacred music muse. This is an album of many moods/feelings & is a worthy, devastatingly beautiful outing (both introspective & intense at the same time). Out of print since 1983 and never released outside of Europe, now back available as a gorgeously packaged deluxe vinyl edition. Strictly limited to 700 copies (blackness vinyl), this release also comes with an exclusive bonus runway & an insert with all-encompassing liner notes.

Various: Sing it High, Sing it Low: Tumbleweed Records (Calorie-free in the Attic) LP
In February of 1971, Larry Ray and Neb Szymczyk fled an convulsion and a debauched L.A. music scene to claim their own piece of utopia in Denver, Colorado. After meeting and bonding at ABC-Dunhill, where Ray landed as general manager, and where Szymczyk had breezed in from New York — fresh off his kickoff real hitting every bit a burgeoning engineer/producer with BB King'due south "The Thrill is Gone" — they'd oftentimes daydreamed nearly starting their own characterization. In Denver, Ray and Szymczyk settled on the name Tumbleweed Records, and through manufacture connections they secured multi-1000000-dollar financing from Gulf + Western, whose head honchos believed they were bankrolling the hippie motion's side by side big thing. But instead of producing the next Janis Joplin or Jimi Hendrix, Ray and Szymczyk turned their sights on idiosyncratic wunderkinds similar Pete McCabe, moody songwriters Robb Kunkel and Danny Holien, psych-folk rocker Arthur Gee, all the while providing a platform for more established musicians similar Albert Collins and Dewey Terry (of Don & Dewey fame), while launching the career of Michael Stanley. It was the all-time of times, it was the worst of times, and, per Szymczyk, it was a "bitchin' disco time." Drugs, parties, poetry, celebrities, money—Tumbleweed had it all, except airplay and distribution. 2 years after its storied start, the characterization was finished. Ray would get on to various opportunities, including producing 5 country albums alongside Bill Halverson, while Szymczyk would soon skyrocket to fame after producing The Eagles' Hotel California. Nevertheless most of Tumbleweed's artists have been relegated to thrift store bin obscurity—until now. This landmark release not only showcases Ray's vision and Szymczyk'due south early work, just begins a major reappraisal of Tumbleweed'southward catalog by bringing these songs out of the shadow of the Rocky Mountains and back into the spotlight.
