Celebrating the Dark Side of the Moon SELLING POINTS

• A new take on the Pink Floyd classic!

• Virtuoso guitarist Nguyên Lê has performed with Randy Brecker, Vince Mendoza, Carla Bley, Trilok Gurtu, and more.

• Press raves from the New York Times, JazzTimes, All About Jazz, and more.

Celebrating the Dark Side of the Moon demonstrates Nguyên Lê’s amazing imagination, enhancing Pink Floyd’s classic with the NDR Bigband and its brilliant soloists, deploying new sound-textures created by the uplifting orchestrations of Michael Gibbs. The arrangements provide choice settings for inspired improvisations, and reveal other compositions that appear as natural extensions of the original opus.

Nguyên Lê is a magician; his art reveals itself not only in his own compositions but also in his celebrations of the music of the past, where his approach to the latter resembles sculptures made of new clay. Remember Purple, his tribute to Jimi Hendrix, or his Songs of Freedom and its evocations of rock’s greatest moments. He’s a flamboyant guitarist and, while he shows courteous deference to his source material, he has always expressed the full diversity of an imaginary world engendered by his own history: that of a nomad, self-taught virtuoso.

Nguyên Lê: electric guitar, electronics Youn Sun Nah: vocals Gary Husband: drums Jürgen Attig: electric fretless bass Michael Gibbs: orchestration NDR Bigband Jörg Achim Keller: conductor Track Listing: Speak To Me • Inspire • Breathe • On the Run • Time • Magic Spells • Hear This Wispering • The Great Gig in the Sky • Gotta Go Sometime • Money • Us and Them • Purple or Blue • Any Colour You Like • Brain Damage • Eclipse Key Markets: New York, New Haven, Boston, Los Angeles, Seattle, Portland, Austin, Chicago

“A masterful, inventive player who has cultivated a wholly unique voice on the instrument, he ranks right up there with Frisell [or] John Scofield … in the post-Hendrix world of jazz guitar.”

“Few musicians embody the word ‘fusion’ more than Parisian-born guitarist Nguyên Lê. For the past 25 years he’s been mining a combination of fusion by the more conventional definition — the infusion of rock energy into the jazz sphere — with fusion in a broader sense, the seamless integration of music from cultures around the world.”

“Four bars of a Hendrix lick and you immediately want to stop whatever you’re doing. To hear him so neatly updated is an ear-opener.”

Rudresh Mahanthappa Bird Calls

SELLING POINTS

• A new album directly based on the compositions of Charlie Parker.

• Major U.S. tour scheduled for Spring 2015.

• Rudresh Mahanthappa is perennially near the top of the DownBeat Critics Poll, and has been named Alto Saxophonist of the Year by the Jazz Journalists Association.

• Previous releases have received coverage from NPR, New York Times, and The New Yorker, among others, and been named in myriad “best of” lists.

• Recipient of a 2013 Doris Duke Performing Artist Award.

Media & Marketing • Independent promoter to be hired.

• Ads with DownBeat.

In Rudresh Mahanthappa’s own words: “There are no Charlie Parker tunes on this album, but each track is directly based on a Parker composition or solo. Historically, it has always been easy to state that Bird’s work left an indelible and influential mark on modern music, but to prove that fact has been an exciting endeavor.”

“Rudresh Mahanthappa’s work always seems to be filed under jazz, but it’s hard to find a style he doesn’t touch: hip-hop, country, metal, and soul fused with traditional sounds from India, Africa and Indonesia. And he makes it rock.”

“To observe that Mahanthappa fused the incantatory phrase-making and exotic scales of Indian music with the free-wheeling improvisational spirit of American jazz would be an understatement. He’s so thoroughly immersed in both worlds that he conjured up a startlingly original merger of the two.”

Stabbing Westward was an American industrial rock band formed in 1989 by Christopher Hall (lead singer) and Walter Flakus (keyboards, programming). The band went through several different lineups during their 13-year career; Christopher and Walter are the only original members. The pair was renowned as the songwriting team behind most of Stabbing Westward’s radio hits including “Save Yourself,” “Shame,” “So Far Away Nothing,” “Lies,” and “Violent Mood Swings.” After four albums, which included two Gold records and eight years of touring with such music greats as Depeche Mode, Sex Pistols, KISS, Killing Joke, Front 242, Placebo and The Cult, Stabbing Westward formally broke up on February 9, 2002.

Now, the songwriting team is back, along with onetime Stabbing Westward drummer Johnny Haro.

The band is rounded out with Deadsy/Orgy guitarist Carlton Bost and bassist Brent Ashley from Static X. The Dreaming’s previous releases include the single “Every Trace,” from their second record PUPPET, which climbed the U.S. rock charts in 2012. “Ugly” was released in 2007 and “Etched in Blood” was featured on the Electra soundtrack.

The band toured with acts such as Trust Company, Flaw, and Trapt. The new album, titled Rise Again, was Chris Hall’s choice: he wanted to deliver an album that brought back the early Stabbing Westward sound that fans have been asking for.

Although the name Stabbing Westward is now dead and buried, the founders of the band are pleased to “rise again” as The Dreaming, along with the intense and haunting music that made them a multi-platinum band.

Life Cried

If I Don’t Wake Up Selling Points • • • •

Third studio album from this amazing band.

Fantastic cover art by Davyid Pittman.

Upcoming U.S. tour (dates TBA).

RIYL: Psyclon 9, Dawn Of Ashes, Hocico.

Media & Marketing

• Promos will be sent to DJs and radio stations.

• Copies will go to print and web media.

• Facebook & MySpace campaign with 100,000 contacts.

Life Cried grabs you by the balls and never lets go! Their tour de force of brutal sonic assaults and relentless aggression is, however, tempered by an almost tender, vulnerable sensibility. The band’s new album, If I Don’t Wake Up, merges heavy electronics with alternative/metal elements and transcends the industrial genre without ending up in the NuMetal Ghetto.

Chris Reject manages to express his fear and anguish through a surprisingly undistorted voice.

His pain is real and heartfelt, and blends perfectly with the powerful tracks that give him the dramatic backdrop for his performance. This alone makes If I Don’t Wake Up a standout album, but it offers so much more. This is a deeply emotional album with a powerful message of loss and suffering. Life Cried is carving out their own path into the future, deploying every weapon in their arsenal of musical expression. They don’t shy away from exploring new territory, but they stay true to themselves: honest, in-your-face, and without regret!

This follow-up to Ghosts (2009), Born To Gun (2010), ENEMY! (2012), and the Black Hearted Killer EP (2013) was produced and mixed by The Cramps bassist Chopper Franklin. Phantom of the Black Hills is definitely one of the most innovative bands in the genre, mixing traditional country instruments with searing guitars, distorted vocals, intense sound effects, and movie dialogue. Their songs are brutal missiles that blatantly encourage all to live a life of full freedom and protest the wrongs and hypocrisies of an oppressive society.

Forming in 2011 from the ashes of Holoscene, Toronto/ Northumberland-based musicians Jim Field and Dorian Williamson came together to create Northumbria and, in turn, craft sweeping, improvised drones that combine their personal influences and individual soundscapes to create an aural journey into a dystopian wasteland. Using only guitar and bass, and recording their work completely live, Northumbria released their 2012 debut on Montreal’s TQA Records, which began their sonic expanse into the consciousness of the public.

Considered by many in underground circles to be a true masterwork of the dark ambient genre, Deterrence is often compared to works by artists such as Biosphere, Lustmord, and Deathprod. Ricardo Donoso is a composer, percussionist, and electronic musician from Rio de Janeiro who currently resides in Boston. He has participated in a slew of projects over the years, notably playing drums for avant-death metal unit Ehnahre and being one-half of the ever morphing electronic duo Perispirit. Ricardo’s musical vocabulary draws as much from contemporary composition and drone as it does from techno and noise.

Certainly Donoso’s most ambitious and challenging undertaking to date, Saravá Exu is a symphonic poem of a Brasilian Quimbanda cult ritual, and the musical accompaniment of descent into one’s own personal hell. In contrast with the continual pursuit of achievement that today’s culture teaches us, the theme of “descent,” found in many myths in the shape of the hero going underground to pass a period of solitude, is no longer represented. A cultural space existed in most traditional societies for such a period in a person’s life and it was seen as necessary in order for the initiate to re-connect with their past and concomitantly with his collective unconscious, or humanity’s primordial existence.

180-gram vinyl with download code, thick gatefold cover, and polylined inner sleeves. Carlos Cipa is a composer and multi-instrumentalist based in Munich. While his first fulllength solo album, The Monarch and the Viceroy (2012), was based on solo piano, his second publication Relive (2013) was a collaborative EP with pianist/composer Sophia Jani, and added sounds from inside the piano. On his sophomore solo record, All Your Life You Walk, he continues this idea by electronically altering these atmospheric sounds, combining them with sounds from various other instruments before adding them to his distinctive piano playing.

180-gram vinyl with free download and thick matte gatefold covers. To escape the rigidity of the piano in this 68-minute single piece, dark ambient pioneer Thomas Köner uses his distinctive ansatz to understand music as something filling the space of the temporal dimension rather than as a succession of multi-layered sounds. Over his long, celebrated career, he has worked between audiovisual installation works, sound art, minimal soundscapes, and as one half of Porter Ricks. Among others, he has composed film soundtracks and music to accompany historic silent films for the Louvre Museum and the Musée d’Orsay, Paris, who have called him “a major innovator in the contemporary music scene.”

180-gram vinyl with free download and thick matte gatefold covers. An exciting collaboration of two French experimental/avant-garde/dark jazz acts! In mutual respect and appreciation, both the Dale Cooper Quartet and Witxes selected a track of their split companion’s and created a fundamental and independent rework around 20 minutes in length. Based upon parts of Witxes’ “The Apparel,” the Dale Cooper Quartet’s “Le Strategie Saint-Frusquin” contains the Quartet’s classic sounds: ambient soundscapes, lazy jazzy rhythms, drone & distortion guitar, and a deep saxophone breath. “Pisces Analogue” is a new Witxes piece based on “Nourrain Quinquet,” a track from Quatorze pièces de menaces by Dale Cooper Quartet & The Dictaphones. In five movements, the track explores the interstices and cracks of the dark, minimalist, lurking, cycle-evolving original piece.

“This influential, politically-conscious U.K. post-punk band formed in the late ’70s, known for its pounding drums, wryly defiant vocals, and stuttering guitars.”

More than a band, Gang of Four is an idea for a band.

Created amid the political and intellectual foment of Leeds in 1977, Gang of Four was an argument, a manifesto, a dare: What would happen if you dismantled assumptions and worked from first principles? What might a rock band sound like if it took nothing for granted?

On the album, as on the band’s rejuvenating 2013 tour dates, founding guitarist and songwriter Andy Gill has constructed a new Gang of Four: John “Gaoler” Sterry on vocals, Thomas McNiece on bass, and Jonny Finnegan on drums. What Happens Next is a work that is aware of Gang of Four’s past but not beholden to it, and finds a band empowered to explore new tones and narratives.

“Post-punk masterminds.”

International in scope as well as personnel, What Happens Next grapples with ideas of identity, religion, and capitalism, and how individuals are led astray by ideology and received wisdom. It does so with music that is heavy, dynamic, and often moving in ways that Gang of Four haven’t explored before. The consistent thread is Gill’s unmistakable guitarplaying, as restless and probing as his lyrics.

With a tough, radical new sound, Andy Gill has constructed a new entity for exploring enduring fascinations, which makes What Happens Next Gang of Four’s boldest, most selfinterrogating album since Entertainment! As ever, Gang of Four takes nothing for granted.

“Politically charged and pumped full of extremist theories and punk rock vehemence.”

STREET DATE FEBRUARY 24, 2015

What Happens Next, the title of Gang of Four’s thrilling and unsettling ninth album, refers both to the world outside and the band itself: an emphatic commitment to the future.

Gaoler is a shape-shifting, charismatic singer able to slide under the skin of Gill’s narrators; sometimes cruel, sometimes vulnerable, sometimes a neutral observer of how society operates. He is joined by Alison Mosshart (The Kills, Dead Weather), Robbie Furze (Big Pink), Gail Ann Dorsey, Japanese guitarist Tomayasu Hotei (known for his work on the Kill Bill soundtrack), and German musician and actor Herbert Grönemeyer. What Happens Next contains the intellectual muscle you would expect, but this plenitude of voices also makes it Gang of Four’s most richly emotional album yet.

The seventh album from NZ experimental guitarist Andrew Moon (RST), and his first collaboration with Lenz, the lead singer of Shanghai band Goushen! Interspersed with instrumental interludes, the mood of the record constantly shifts. Familiar drone signatures appear but are re-contextualized by the human voice, as heavy spacestomping glam-doom riffs buoy soaring spoken word love-verses. Sung and spoken predominantly in her native tongue, Lenz’s songs offer a gorgeous counterpoint to Moon’s pulsing guitar modality. A potent meeting of musical minds that has reset the course for both artists as progenitors of the new transcendental music of the Pacific Rim! “Even at its heaviest, the sounds are still imbued with some mysterious beauty and otherworldly magic.” — AQUARIUS RECORDS Track Listing: Illusions From Bone • Verna • Little Shaking • Lotus • They Told Me I was Dead • Kings Revenge • Illusions & Inventions • Magnolia • Love • Stimulation • Fade In Out Key Markets: New York, Chicago, Los Angeles, San Francisco, Portland, Detroit, Philadelphia, Seattle
