The Resonance Project - S/T & AD ASTRA BOTH LOSSLESS

 "Progressive metal is an open minded platform, solid enough that we can build up on it freely, and broad enough to carry a vast dimension of expression and musicality. So when a spark of idea appears, all techniques, skills and available styles of music become tools that we can use to carefully grow the spark into something beyond expectation. We are musicians, and our job is to create the best music at the moment we can.

I am lucky and grateful to be in this wonderful team with Yas and Ziyin. Together we made this project into reality.

I want to thank my parents, family and friends for their endless love and support, and Rob Carson and Matt Garstka for the inspiration, motivation and their mentoring over all these years."

- Lang Zhao

"Lang and I have been trying to put a project together for several years, and now it’s finally here.

We had many guest musicians that are also our good friends. I’m very grateful to be able to create music with these outstanding musicians.

I’d like to say thank you to Lang, Ziyin, my parents, family, friends and all the people that have supported me over the years.

Hope you enjoy the album."

-Yas Nomura

The Folie Phantom -EDEN [2021] EP LOSSLESS

 

The Folie Phantom is a brass-rock/jazz-rock instrumental band formed in 2019.

With an energetic and dynamic sound that fuses jazz and rock, mainly wind instruments, he is developing live activities all over the country, mainly in Tokyo.

This work is a nostalgic and rhythmic song inspired by the dance step "popcorn" of the 70s.

It is characterized by a catchy melody line played by euphonium and saxophone, and has a charm that naturally shakes the listener's body to the rhythm.

This song, which will also be included in their 4th album "Legacy" to be released on 5/6, is one song that allows you to feel the band's playfulness and sophisticated sound making at the same time.

Billy Cobham's Glassmenagerie* – Stratus [1981::2006] LOSSLESS

 

Limited Compact Disc Reference Edition

 Fusion, Contemporary Jazz, Jazz-Rock

This is the companion disc to Flight Time, which was also recorded for the Inakustik label. While not quite as original as its predecessor, it is still highly recommended. A young Mike Stern had not completely developed his sound yet, but he's still unmistakable. Violinist Michal Urbaniak's presence gives Cobham classics like "Stratus," "AC/DC," and "Total Eclipse" a fresh sound. Here again, Cobham is more than willing to let his colleagues step to the forefront and offer up their unique ideas, some better than other (Gil Goldstein's "Wrapped in a Cloud" is enchanting while Landers' reggae offering, "All Hallows Eve," falls flat). The biggest disappointment here are the short song lengths, especially the early fadeout on "Brooze," but hearing Cobham and Stern together make this an essential recording for jazz-rock fans.
