A stream of water flows through Andreas Haddeland Trio’s third album, Estuar. Water in many forms. As the foundation for synchronized strokes, as clouds in soft and ever-shifting formations, as impenetrable fog, as tides flowing into the river mouth, creating marshy landscapes with their own unique forms of life.

As trans-Atlantic alchemists pulling from a shared dialectic that somehow encompassed both postmodern deconstructionist tendencies and a delightfully subversive sense of poptimism, it’s easy to see how David Cunningham and Peter Gordon immediately hit it off upon initially meeting each other back in the late-1970s at the height of their youthful transgressions. Having initially worked together on the second Flying Lizards’ LP fourth wall, with its ingenious fusion of dismantled rhythms and rearranged melodies juxtaposed against the slyly sultry singing of Snatch’s Patti Palladin— with Gordon adding a few sprinkles of mischievous sax in the mix— it’s no wonder the collaboration would lead to further musical adventures.

After a critically praised debut in 2023 and numerous tours across Europe, Yalla Miku returns with “2”, a new record that further asserts their unique identity. Still based in Geneva, the band moves forward with a reimagined lineup — not as a departure, but as the natural continuation of a project envisioned from the start as a space for encounters, movement, and musical reinvention.

Julia Blair was born of this world as a force to smother the disquieting agents of despair- and as a gentle soul that no-less employs her mighty voice to speak truth to power. Those who know her personally know this, and those who have heard her sing know this as well. On her second solo album, All Of My Important Things, Julia proclaims her fondness for self-expression and demonstrates her aptitude for dynamics: from the explosive nature of a pop hook to the firm, comforting grip of a lullaby. She does so at-times anecdotally, while utilizing the marriage of sophisticated arrangements and plain-spoken lyrical language.

Over the last few years, Amanda Favier and Élodie Soulard have formed an original tandem that shakes things up. Their first album together is a gem, offering a programme that is by turns sparkling and nostalgic, devoted to the brilliant Viennese composer and arranger Fritz Kreisler. The virtuoso violin and accordion create a unique alchemy of sound, both modern and timeless, inviting us to rediscover these nuggets, often played as an encore.

In "Monadology, XXXVI, 'Chopin': 12 Études", composer Bernhard Lang transforms Chopin's famous Études Op. 10 into a radical 'meta-composition'. The Austrian composer dissects the original scores and reconstructs them as new sound structures. This piece is part of Lang's monumental 'Monadology' series (more than forty compositions, 2007–2020), in which existing music, ranging from Chopin to Mozart and Ligeti, is deconstructed and rewritten as self-reflective musical texts.
