| | "I'll Fly To Your Open Arms" is an early 1970s soul song by George Rountree and Jack Ashford, later recorded by Ashford for his 1977 album Hotel Sheets. Before that, versions by The Magnificents and Family Brick were recorded, with the latter featuring mixed vocals and a more mainstream soul style. An alternate version from around 1971, titled "Did She Do It To You," offers different lyrics and sound, appealing especially to Detroit soul fans. | | | | | An EP with 4 sparkling popsongs written by the-king-of-garage-pop Mark ten Hoor (The Kryng) who also wrote her last album Fille Sauvage (2024). Title track Jour D'été is an uptempo breezy pop-gem about Summer and being young and in love. Je Ne Veux Pas De Toi romps and stomps with Fl telling her admirer how things stand in the bongo driven chorus. Le Temps Nous Le Dira could have easily been the title track. A super catchy melancholy song with driving 12-string guitar. The delicate, moody and dreamlike Qu'est-ce Que Je Fais de Mal is a perfect closer. | | | | | ROVR and Ace Records have launched a new label dedicated to rare 1950s and 60s underground dance music, curated by DJ Keb Darge. The debut release features two haunting 1968 tracks: The Hooterville Trolley's "No Silver Bird" and The Fog's "Grey Zone." "No Silver Bird" is a highly valuable psych-garage rarity known for its unique, experimental "string machine" sound. "Grey Zone" was a previously unreleased track that has recently become a global underground hit on the club scene. Both songs offer a dark, heavy aesthetic that aligns perfectly with modern trends in alternative dance floors. | | | | | Long admired as a great soul ballad, Rosie Lopez's 'I'll Never Grow Tired' has become more desirable ever since the lowrider scene put this type of magnificent harmony backing into the spotlight. As if that was not enough, Rosie's updated version of Betty Everett's 'Too Hot To Hold' has captured the imagination of the younger DJs on the soul dance scene, making for two very desirable sides. | | |
| | To celebrate 20 years of music, King Automatic returns to Slovenly with a 10-inch record featuring six transformed garage and 60s classics. The album masterfully reimagines tracks by artists like The Seeds and Jacques Dutronc through a lens of rocksteady, drum machines, and layered loops. By stripping down hits like "One Step Beyond" to their rhythmic roots, King Automatic delivers a fresh, intensified take on rock'n'roll for the modern scene. | | |
| | A high-energy album of raw cover songs honoring lesser-known gems from Canada's garage-rock history. Instead of mainstream hits, they reinterpret cult tracks by artists like The Devrons, David Clayton Thomas & The Shays, Les Lutins, and Neil Young. More than nostalgia, the album revives vintage sounds with a loud, modern edge, celebrating Canada's musical roots. | | | | | "Happiness Is Priceless", debut album by Jamaican reggae artist Desmond, has been released. The Kingston-bred singer and songwriter gravitated to music and theater early in life. Over the years, Desmond has become an experienced choir director and absorbed himself in every aspect of musical creativity. Now based in New York City and with his LP out in the world, the brilliant vocalist hopes to demonstrate his talents to a broader audience by moving forward as a solo artist. Desmond presents a balanced mix of reggae and contemporary R&B music with the unmistakable theme of money spending itself throughout the ten-track album. Opening track "Rise Up" is an encouragement to lifting one's self up, while the title track, "Happiness Is Priceless", emphatically reminds listeners that contentment can't be bought. Credit troubles yield to the wistful sound of the saxophone in "Hiding My Car" as does homelessness in "Make My Life". | | | | | Geometrik Records is delighted to once again play a part in the exclusive recovery of Marcelo Expósito's previously unpublished work, which had been lost since its original creation in the 1980s. Marcelo Expósito is one of Spain's most internationally renowned contemporary artists, whose work is regularly exhibited across ope and Latin America. He began his career at a very young age during the era of sound experimentation that flourished in the wake of so-called industrial culture, which found particularly fertile ground in Spain. As co-editor of legendary publications such as the fanzine Experiencias (1983) and, above all, the cassette-fanzine publisher Necronomicón (1983-1987), which operated on an international scale, Marcelo Expósito has, in recent years, been reconstructing those of his sound experiments that had been lost for decades.

In a post-world world, the soundtrack should be post-what-fucking-ever, and it needs to careen at light speed with piles upon piles of noise and tension. What remains of Sardinia and Turkey? GENTILESKY is there, and there, and HERE, bonding over a common goal of survival. "Dream" is their second album, and its ferocity was carefully designed to stop you dead in your tracks, but it's not like you have anywhere left to run anyway. The nightmare continues on Slovenly Recordings this Spring. Stick around for it... We need you more than you realize. | | | | | Bob James' 1974 debut album One became a key smooth jazz record, reaching #2 on the jazz charts and #85 on the US pop chart. It spawned three singles, with "Feel Like Making Love" being the only one to chart on the Billboard Hot 100. The album gained lasting influence as "Nautilus" became one of the most sampled tracks in hip-hop, and it is now being reissued for new audiences. | | | | | THE KILLING FLOORS are a Los Angeles-based five-piece Rock 'n' Roll band, recognized among Music Connection Magazine's Top 100 Live Performers, blending '60s Garage Rock, Psychedelia, and Garage Punk with English- and Spanish-language songs. Known for their explosive live shows, raw energy, and vintage sound, they capture that same electrifying spirit on their debut album, Los Angeles Chicano R'n'R. | | | | 4251896120297 TOPSY-TURVY | Since the early 1990s, The Krontjong Devils have blended instrumental surf music with their unique "Oetsound," earning acclaim with the sold-out Music From The Stars, Volume 1. On Volume 2, they reinterpret songs by artists such as Blondie, Patrick Hernandez, Massive Attack, and D.A.F., transforming familiar melodies into captivating guitar-driven instrumentals while reuniting their original line-up for the first time since 1998. | | |
