Producer and bassist Huw Marc Bennett presents ‘Tresilian Bay’, a new project that draws from artists such as Tim Maia, Augustus Pablo and Idris Muhammed as much as the jazz scene and community he has found in south-east London. The languid, sultry sound fuses both modern and vintage, travelling from South London electronica, to Brazillian groove, Nigerian Afrobeat and Ghanaian Highlife along with a streak of Welsh psychedelia.
Candy Girl is one of the more mysterious dates in Mal Waldron's discography. Recorded in 1975 at producer Pierre Jaubert's studio with Lafayette Afro Rock Band, it appeared in a tiny independent release from Calumet and was forgotten until France's Libreville Records reissued it in small print runs in 2016 and 2020.
This is not an LP that explores a neat and tidy love story. It isn't interested in the happy ending. It's interested in everything that comes before it, after it, and in spite of it, pulling inspiration from wherever it presented itself, even the most unlikely of places: "It didn't feel like we were making soul music at any point," he says. "It felt like we were making our music."
Mr Bongo reissue Bobby Williams' coveted deep funk rarity Funky Super Fly from 1974. Rich in raw, gritty, from-the-heart grooves, the influence of James Brown is strong, yet the tracks are distinctly Bobby. Oozing style and substance, the album is full of fiery horn sections, strutting guitars and infectious basslines tracked by plenty of prime breakbeats.
Now-Again has been reissuing the essential records from the Zamrock scene since 2010. This is the first commercial release of this Ngozi Family album that only ever made it to the test-press stage - it is part of an extensive campaign centered around Paul Ngozi and his band; all releases are licensed directly from the Estates of Paul Ngozi and Chrissy Zebby Tembo.
The trio of guitarist Grant Green, organist Larry Young, and drummer Elvin Jones had aspecial alchemy from the first time they got together on 1964’s Talkin’ About. Two months later they returned to the studio with the addition of Bobby Hutcherson on vibraphone for the sublime outing Street Of Dreams, a four-song set imbued with atmospheric elegance.
What Does It Take To Bloom? Is her ninth album overall and her first collection of original songs in six years. Musically, it also represents a new chapter in collaboration. During sessions in Lagos, Somi connected with Benjamin James, whose partnership would become pivotal. As one-half of the Nigerian duo The Cavemen., James brings a contemporary approach to heritage-centred sound.
The Way I See It puts Raphael Saadiq's love of 60s soul on full display, with Saadiq stating it was "the culmination of a lifetime of experiences informed by the music I grew up on." Recorded on vintage equipment, the set features Joss Stone, CJ Hilton, The Rebirth Brass Band, a remixed bonus track from Jay-Z, and a guest appearance by Stevie Wonder.
In 1979 at the age of 62, Bobby Robinson was an incongruous figure, standing at the back of a Bronx club watching a performance from GRANDMASTER FLASH and The Furious Five. The experienced record man, whose record shop, Bobby's Happy House, had been the first black-owned business on Harlem's 125th Street, was on the lookout for talent.
Glera is a genre-bending jazz record that folds in soul and reggae’s elastic low end with an open-door sense of possibility. The project began three years ago as a kind of private exercise, with Benevento writing intuitively, inspired by Italian film scores and melody. Over time, those sketches evolved into something broader and more muscular, culminating in the grand majesty heard here.
Sounds Beyond Barriers
One of the most politically charged terms of the 20th century, the Iron Curtain was a metaphor for political and cultural division. In a post-war telegram Winston Churchill referred to the fault line that ran through Europe between East and West as "an Iron Curtain is drawn down upon their front. We do not know what is going on behind".
One of Blue Note's greatest mainstream hard bop dates, Song for My Father is Horace Silver's signature LP and the peak of a discography already studded with classics. Silver was always a master at balancing jumping rhythms with complex harmonies for a unique blend of earthiness and sophistication, and Song for My Father has perhaps the most sophisticated air of all his albums
BBE Music’s celebrated J Jazz compilation series reaches its fifth and final volume in early 2026. This final volume features a selection of tracks that is as diverse as it is deep, reflecting the rich and varied Japanese jazz scene that spanned from the late 1960s to the late 1980s, a golden era of innovation and creativity.
Originally released in 1968 on the budget Saga label, The Soul of The Matter has become a genuine cult favourite of the British late-sixties soul-pop underground. Long overlooked and pressed in modest quantities, the album quietly built a reputation among collectors as one of those rare low-budget releases where the artistry far outweighed the resources behind it.
The Cabildos remain one of the most enigmatic names to emerge from the 1970s library music scene. Little is known about the group, except that their name was inspired by Johnny Cabildo, an Italian keyboardist and composer who had relocated to Florida. Their recorded legacy is strikingly concise: just three albums—Yuxtaposición (1972, released under the name Cabildo's Three), Cross Fire (1974), and the later Where Is the Cat? (1979).
In the early 1970s, Milan was a city defined by a restless, creative energy. Its recording studios hummed with activity day and night, populated by an elite circle of jazz-trained session musicians who split their time between tracking dates in the studio and jam sessions in the city’s clubs. Among them was Giancarlo Barigozzi, one of the most revered flautists and saxophonists of the scene, who was just then beginning to navigate the enigmatic world of library music.
A document of singular rarity. Issued by United Dairies in 2026 in a hand-made, heavy-gauge black vinyl edition limited to 300 copies, 1984 - A Happening recovers the second ever public performance of Nurse With Wound, captured on tape in 1984 and held in Steven Stapleton's archive across the four decades since.
Following on from their seminal Light As A Feather LP, Outubro (October) was originally released in 1980 and began Azymuth’s run of prolific output for Milestone Records throughout the decade. Typifying the consummate craftsmanship of the three members’ performances - each with such distinct personality and together so perfectly balanced - their perfectionist attitude to sound is maintained across the production on the album, beautifully colouring the expressionist fusion of samba rhythm, jazz progression, funk attitude and psychedelic electronics.

8-Tracks features eight essential classics selected from the Pink Floyd’s 1971 – 1979 era. The track list includes instantly recognisable hits alongside earlier cuts in ‘One Of These Days’ and ‘Wot’s… Uh The Deal’, as well as an exclusive full version of ‘Pigs On The Wing’, previously available only on the 1977 Animals 8-Track cartridge release
When funk music exploded onto the global pop scene in the late sixties, many of Jamaica's leading music-makers were inspired to incorporate elements of the exciting sound into their work. The result was the fascinating and compelling funky reggae style that proved immensely popular with record buyers on both sides of the Atlantic throughout the early ‘70s.
A unique and brilliant collaboration between legendary dub / reggae pioneer Lee “Scratch” Perry and German electronic production duo Mouse on Mars. ‘Spatial, No Problem.’ finds the artists breaking new ground - the one thing Lee was sure of was that this shouldn’t be just another reggae album. It covers everything from Krautrock, ambient, dub, jazz, New Orleans brass and much more.
Dexter Gordon’s second Blue Note album Dexter Calling… recorded in 1961 solidified the tenor saxophonist’s career rebirth with a joyous return to form. Dexter holds forth at the helm of a quartet with Kenny Drew, Paul Chambers, and Philly Joe Jones moving nimbly from hard-charging swing to stunning balladry.
Compiled by Argentinian Djs and producers Ric Piccolo and Ariel Harari, Danza Secreta: Lost and Hidden Grooves From Argentina (1970-1980) is an emotional archive made up of music that never belonged to a single, unified scene, but shared a common spirit: a desire to experiment, to make people dance, to break away from dominant genres
