A Love Supreme
Black Vinyl. John Coltrane saw the album-length suite A Love Supreme as his gift to God.

To the Mesosphere and Beyond

The Complete Live in Paris 1960, Vol. 1
This is the first time this concert has been published in its entirety. The adventure began in 2022 with a visit to a tape recorder enthusiast in Brittany.

We are proud and happy to present this first volume.
In October, on the stage of the Olympia - a legendary Parisian venue th…
Kind of Blue
*Listed as one of the four most influential Jazz albums that happened to be released in 1959 (Dave Brubeck -Time Out & Charles Mingus -Ah Um among them), so much has been said and written about Miles Davis'Kind Of Blue, it's virtually impossible to summarize all the necessary info to the length of this page. We could simply list some facts (best sold Jazz album ever worldwide). We could try to explain why it's the best Jazz album ever made, but the music itself will do that to you.
As Bill Evans…

Union
*2024 stock* "Muriel Grossmann's music had an immediate impact on me from the moment I first heard it. It was music with dedication, speaking from the heart.

Formative Stages
*2024 stock* Organic Pulse Ensemble approaches adventures in fields of sound as a one-man band. It is music recorded, composed and mixed by Gustav Horneij.

Intellectually unpretentious ‘Formative Stages’ takes the listener on a voyage into an organic a…
