SEASIDE LOVERS - Memories In Beach House ( Ship To Shore PhonoCo ) Originally released in 1983 and never reissued on vinyl, Ship to Shore PhonoCo is proud to present the jazz fusion masterpiece that is Memories in Beach House. With music by legends Akira Inoue, Hiroshi Sato and Masataka Matsutoya (performing under the name Seaside Lovers), the album weaves a tapestry of island beats and rhythms that will transport you to another place and another time. From the lush production of Lovers Paradise to the emotionally stirring strings of Blue Memories, if you close your eyes and listen very closely, we're sure you're bound to hear a wave or two in the background. Highly sought after on the vinyl aftermarket since it was released, we are happy to offer this under-recognized gem to the public again! Newly remastered by Sony Music for this release, after spinning this one you'll agree it's never sounded better! This release is available on blue vinyl and comes with a f

Mammane Sani – La Musique Électronique Du Niger «The original 1978 cassette (one of only two known to still exist!) was discovered in a Niger music archive by the dedicated explorer Christopher Kirkley.

Mammane is well known in Niger as his music has provided the undertone to radio and television programs for decades but his sole album has laid dormant since it’s release. Now these gentle rolls and sways of electric organ tones, transcribing traditional Wodaabe and Tuareg melodies as well as original expressions, once again roll into life and we couldn’t be happier.» http://www.discogs.com/Mammane-Sani-La-Musique-Électronique-Du-Niger/release/4505053

Hip-hop a sério, feito por uma das suas figuras dos anos 90, o agora “renomeado” Palaceer Lazaro, ex-Digable Planets. Arquetipal vítima de indústria discográfica pré-era digital, teve tempo para projectar e concretizar uma visão completamente aparte, radicalmente fresca, e o melhor que ouvimos no hip hop esteticamente mais progressivo desde o 2º álbum dos Clipse. ‘Black Up’, editado já este ano pela Sub Pop, é um clássico instantâneo. Letras monumentais, um dos melhores MCs do mundo (ponto), produção com a música negra dos últimos cem anos memorizada e profundamente integrada na composição, e um futurismo que nada tem de protótipo – visões do amanhã hoje, altamente vividas e humanizadas. Surgiu apenas
