Corea Chick Trio: Trilogy 3 [CD]

After an outpouring of seven acclaimed albums over a decade, accompanied by rapturously received touring all over Europe and North America, it's been nearly four years since the Hedvig Mollestad Trio released their triumphal seventh album, “Ding Dong. You're Dead”. Mollestad's pent-up delight in reconnecting with cofounders Ellen Brekken (bass) and Ivar Loe Bjornstad (drums) pervades “Bees in the Bonnet”'s thirty-seven adventurous, invigorating, beautifully baffling yet accessible minutes as they continue to blur boundaries between progressive rock and jazz and heavy psychedelia with their signature telepathic chemistry, nuanced sonority and uplifting spirit. Enjoy "Golden Griffin" while waiting for a fabulous album!

Founded in 2016 in Odesa by academic pianist and composer Andrii Pokaz, Pokaz Trio introduced a new wave of contemporary jazz in Ukraine. The trio successfully combines jazz, classical and ethnic music with electronic additions. The Voices album is a long-term work on immersion in one's own feelings. Turning to the history and experience of ancestors. A kind of journey through years and distances. On the border of genres, listening to our own nature and relying on self-confidence, we created this album.

Kuti Femi: Journey Through Life [CD]

Kneebody returns with Reach, their first studio album in six years, showcasing their singular musical vision with a reinvented lineup. Reach acts as both a rebirth for the genre-blurring quartet and a continuation of the concepts it has evolved over the past 24 years. It is also an opportunity for the band and its fans to reflect on the impact that Kneebody has had on the current musical landscape, where electric, eclectic improvised music fits comfortably on tastemaking playlists alongside indie rock, hip-hop and electronic music. Today, nearly a quarter-century after the band’s founding in Los Angeles, the members of Kneebody remain committed to the group and to each other — despite their involvement in numerous other projects and the challenges of sheer geography.
