Sounds From The Ground Alchemy (2015)

Sounds From The Ground delve once again deep into their archives to compile a second ten track compilation of unreleased and rare tracks. Spanning a ten year period from 2004, the collection features a sumptuous choice cut featuring Taz Alexander as well as the fans favourite 'Clover'.

London duo Sounds From The Ground come back with their 13th studio album entitled 'Native Soul'. Nick & Elliot have been making music together for over 20 years, helping to shape the panorama of the UK Electronica / Dub / Trip Hop scene with a series of forward thinking albums. This latest work is another statement of their longevity and creativity, mixing what they do best with exciting new influences. 'Native Soul' includes 10 tracks, forged in the studio between Autumn 2016 and Spring 2017.

The well respected London duo Nick Woolfson and Elliot Jones return with a striking new album Binary featuring 9 brand new tracks. Binary marks the 25th anniversary of Sounds From The Ground.

Stereophonic Space Sound Unlimited have returned with their sixth Dionysus album, "Spooky Sound Sessions," a collection of 14 brand new songs recorded entirely at the legendary Spooky Sound Record Store in Zurich, Switzerland. The elusive duo consisting of Ernest Maeschi and Karen Simpson have once more worked their magic and created a series of instrumentals which will take you onto a journey into The Great Unknown. Guitars, organs, sitars, Indian banjos, Moogs, bongos, and sounds of obscure electronic equipment exclusively available to the Spooky Sound Lab have been woven into the unique Sound experience that is Stereophonic Space Sound Unlimited.

Well, it does exactly what it says on the box. The 57 tracks on this 'Magic Bus' compilation run from the late 1960s to the early 1970s, but, with remarkable perspicacity, the compiler has mixed them up very cleverly. The CDs are called 'Turn On', 'Tune In' and 'Drop Out' and the songs on each one reflect, more or less, their monikers. Thus, on CD1 Scott McKenzie rubs shoulders with Barry McGuire, CD2 is full of singer-songwriters; Dylan, Cat Stevens and the like; whilst CD3 rocks it up with Steppenwolf and Cream. What this collection is selling is nostalgia and it does it very, very well. Anyone who grew up through the years in question will remember every one of these songs and probably sing along with them too. It has to be said that there are two major omissions though, there is nothing by either The Beatles or The Rolling Stones. Down to licensing presumably. That said, this is an absolutely classic collection that has been selected with extreme care and, dare it be said, love.

Debut album from Steve Hughes, ex-drummer from Big Big Train and The Enid. After a long absence from the progressive surrounding, he returned in 2015 with an album full of light symphonic textures and ethereal arrangements, ''Tales from the Silent Ocean'', showing his talent as a composer, singer and multi-instrumentalist and receiving help from a list of fellow prog musicians, like Sean Filkins and Stuart Bell.
