The distance traveled on William Prince’s new album, Further From the Country, is generational, aspirational, and metaphysical. Expansive and declarative, Further From the Country is the work of an artist who meets the challenge of putting incisive and enduring words to this age of uncertainty. William Prince’s perspective - a songwriter who carries great legacies of family and songcraft forward - is singular and significant. Further From the Country, his fifth LP, is an extraordinary work of observation, reflection and ambition, a work that will leave its mark on listeners for its humanity and its potency.

With Classical Dance – Simply the Best, Alex Christensen and The Berlin Orchestra continue their celebrated success series, in which iconic dance and pop hits are reinterpreted in a lavish, classical guise.

Minimal and nuanced, Diary of a Candle is a consoling, melodic suite from acclaimed experimental composer, musician, and producer Faten Kanaan. On this album Faten uses counterpoint as a narrative tool to create music that is mysterious, smudgy, and deeply melodic. From the repetitive structures of modern minimalism and early music/baroque influences - to more languid textural ebbs and tides, there's a warmth in her use of synthesizers that gives her work a curiously timeless feel. Composing intuitively, her music creates its own world - one that isn't easily categorised.

Deux marks a bold evolution in the brother duo’s sound. Written between 2022 and 2024, these nine meticulously crafted tracks deepen their exploration of heavy progressive rock with greater ambition and intensity than ever before. What makes this special: Two brothers, no guitars — just vintage organ, thunderous drums, and hypnotic call-and-response vocals creating massive soundscapes. Rooted in 1970s prog, hard rock, and heavy psych, Moundrag channel icons like Deep Purple, King Crimson, Emerson Lake & Palmer, and Uriah Heep, while drawing parallels to modern acts like Motorpsycho and Hällas. Yet Deux is no nostalgia trip — it’s a fiercely contemporary manifesto, blending dystopian fantasy, sci-fi, and Celtic myth into lyrics that challenge archaic norms and imagine a freer world.

Antonio Nola was a minor figure among the Neapolitan composers who collaborated with musicians from the church of the Girolamini, which included Giovanni Maria Trabaci, Scipione Dentice (nephew of Fabrizio Dentice), Giovanni Maria Sabino, Giovanni Salvatore, master of the royal chapel Filippo Coppola and, foremost among them, Erasmo di Bartolo ("Padre Raimo") author of the monumental Mottetti per le quarant' ore. His only recorded work, in comparison with the Magnificat a 5 composed in the same year by his colleague Francesco Provenzale (1624–1704), shows a less sophisticated compositional level.
