Tony Allen & Adrian Younge -
Tony Allen -
"Ebun"
Notes: For the latest Jazz Is Dead installment, the label connected with the late great Tony Allen, best known for his foundational work as the drummer for Fela Kuti's Africa 70. Over the course of Allen's recording career, he defined the Afrobeat sound, meshing Funk & Jazz influences with Nigerian Highlife to create a cross-cultural dialogue that has gone global.
Kinan Azmeh/Brooklyn Rider -
Starlighter -
"In The Element III"
Notes: A new collaborative album by celebrated Syrian clarinetist and composer Kinan Azmeh and Grammy-nominated string quartet Brooklyn Rider. Also featuring multi-percussionist Mathias Kunzli, Starlighter celebrates long-standing friendships between a circle of musicians who represent a multiplicity of musical identities.
Tri Nguyen -
That Bicycle Ride -
"Weeping Mango Leaves"
Notes: Tri Nguyen, classical pianist and àn tranh (Vietnamese zither) master, presents 14 enchanting pieces composed in the form of a heartfelt letter to his late mother. With his bicultural upbringing, Tri showcases his mastery of the piano, at times reciting Bach, Vivaldi, Ravel as well as his profound knowledge of the ancient techniques of àn tranh playing.
Zeyn'el -
Divan & Divine -
"Ela Gozlu Pirim Geldi"
Notes: The songs of Divan & Divine are inspired by the poems of the Anatolian troubadours of the 14th to 16th centuries, yet they touch upon and translate to the prejudices suffered by many today.
Lalalar -
single -
"Hem Evimsin Hem Cehennemim"
Notes: After setting European stages on fire with the release of their first LP in 2022, the almighty Turkish band returns with En Kötü Iyi Olur! The album is fed by the mighty heritage of Anatolia, powered by the electronic burden of 80's youth, born ready to dance, produced by a trio not wanting to hold back on widening their unauthorized experiments in today's music scene in Istanbul.
Sahkopaimen -
Hamara -
"Hamynen"
Notes: Folk music from the twilight zone. Hämärä (Finnish for dusk or twilight) is a toned moment between light and shadow, new and old. Hämärä is momentary and transformative, it is a magical moment of transition and danger where anything can happen. It is apt to describe Sähköpaimen's modern folk music, where the oldest tradition meets modern technology and improvisation smashes into the beat.
Sheila Chandra -
Weaving My Ancestors' Voices -
"Speaking In Tongues II"
Notes: Sheila Savithri Elizabeth Chandra is a retired English pop singer of Indian descent. She is no longer able to perform, as the result of Burning Mouth Syndrome which she has had since 2010. These austerely beautiful records forged a new global vocal vision out of a re-imagining of myriad vocal traditions - and sound just as radical and passionate now, as they did when they were first released, 30 years ago.

Luiza Lian -
7 Estrelas -
"A Minha Musica"
Notes: Luiza Lian is back with an album composed in 2019 that speaks a lot about the moment we have been experiencing since 2020. The shock and trauma we have gone through in these years resonate deeply with the theme of the new album, which was meticulously worked on by Luiza and her producer, Charles Tixier, throughout this turbulent period we are going through.
Ivan Lins -
My Heart Speaks -
"Renata Maria"
Notes: My Heart Speaks, the new album from Brazilian legend Ivan Lins, is out September 15, 2023 via Resonance Records. The album features Lins - in intense performances of songs he hand-picked - with jazz vocal icons Dianne Reeves and Jane Monheit, rising star singer Tawanda and trumpet great Randy Brecker, along with the 91-member Tbilisi Symphony Orchestra. Lins's core band on this album features pianist Josh Nelson, guitarist Leo Amuedo and bassist Carlitos Del Puerto.
Didon -
Tunisian Tale Remixed -
"If Only Re-Imagined"
Notes: Tunisian/ American duo Didon is Carmen Rizzo & Meriem Ben Amor's new Middle Eastern/ North African electro collaboration. Meriem's mesmerizing Arabic vocals blend with the production from 2-time Grammy-nominated producer/ musician Carmen Rizzo takes you through a journey of classic Arabic Melodys and modern production.
Alejandro Brittes -
(L)este -
"Amanece"
Notes: Born of the centuries-long interaction between ritual practices of indigenous Guaraní and the Baroque music influences brought by Jesuits in the Mission period, Argentina's chamamé can be conceived of as a ritual that seeks to communicate with the Earth and the Universe and maintain harmony among humans, through music and dance that lead participants to moments of ecstatic trance.
Captain Planet -
Sounds Like Home -
"Hammock Dreams"
Notes: Taking a turn toward the more organic, retro sounds of artists who originally inspired him as a young musician, Charlie Wilder (aka Captain Planet) flexed his composer and bandleader muscles- incorporating horn sections, strings, and acoustic drums more than the big club focused electronic sounds he has often come to be known for.
Bombino -
Sahel -
"Ayo Nigla"
Notes: Guitar luminary Tuareg folk hero Omara 'Bombino' Moctar will release his new album on September 15th via Partisan Records. 'Sahel' takes its name from the vast African region spanning East-West from the Atlantic Ocean to the Red Sea, and is the highly anticipated follow-up to his 2018 album 'Deran'. which turned Bombino into the first-ever Grammy-nominated artist from Niger.
