Tom Jobim by Fábio Caramuru is the real expression of two of my greatest passions: playing the piano and the masterpieces of one of the most important Brazilian composers. As I planned my approach of the 28 tracks (double CD) based on Jobim’s work, I felt a huge pleasure in exploring this universe in a very particular way: the pianistic one. The two CDs were conceived with a ten year interval between them. The first one, released in 1997, originally named “Tom Jobim Piano Solo”, reminds me of a period when I was strongly nostalgic about the recent departure (1994) of this great composer. It reflects my desire of making a personal, contained and reverential tribute. On the other hand, in the second CD, recorded almost ten years later, the melancholy gave place to a happy sensation of reunion. Throughout the musical elaboration process I really had the feeling of having the composer close to me, guiding my soul. At that time, I dared mixing with more freedom my pianistic poetic and Jobim’s music. – Fabio Caramuru

The End Isnt the End in which the tapestry woven by the arpeggio of the guitar spreads in the space like a constellation, this song was commissioned by The New York Times and was made for the documentary film (directed by Leslye Davis) below.

Motohiro Nakashima hails from Fukuyama, a city near Hiroshima. Noted for his fingerstyle guitar, and an experimental, ambient approach to making music, Nakashima debuted from Lo Recordings (Thurston Moore, Susumu Yokota, Luke Vibert) and has three albums from several labels.
Gathering The Light is his most personal work to date. Combining fingerstyle guitar and ambient instrumentation for emotive minimalist soundscapes, the album illustrates the universal search for light in the darkness, beauty in melancholy.

Artwork by TAKCOM
Sivutie, which is a Finnish word – means “back road”, is conceived based on an unique concept – a girl’s mysterious world in a night dream. In this 15-tracks debut full-length, Noah gently blended in the musical influences she carefully absorbed – the piano pieces she listened during childhood, the choir harmony from churches, soundtrack of French animation films, 90’s trip-hop, R&B music, the exchange of ideas with SELA. (whom she released a split with), and she transformed all these into some cinematic and yet tantalizing sounds with full imagination. With her delicate singing, the mysterious drone noises, the fluffy melodies that float like the night air, Sivutie, a breath-taking ambient album, shines like the light shimmers on the water surface of a pool.
Noah’s Sivutie is like the ghost of Aaliyah, with Jessie Ware’s aesthetic, dipped into the mellow moment of Lapalux, on the background of Burial’s loneliness.
