Loma 2018

Loma's releases met with mixed, but mainly poor results; the majority of Loma's output not even registering in the Billboard charts. Acknowledging this, and perhaps perceiving greater shifts in musical tastes, the label tried to broaden its appeal half way through its short life by releasing 45's aimed more squarely at a young, white audience and catering for the growing demand for beat group, garage, folk-rock and psychedelic sounds.

Acrobat Presents Americas Greatest Hits 1944 album 94 original hits and the original artists genre Pop, Rock. Includes tracks by Glen Gray The Casa Loma Orch. With Eugenie Baird, Ella Mae Morse, David Rose, The Pied Pipers and more.

Blood is the much anticipated sophomore album from the romantic soul-pop group Rhye. An album about the aftermath of love which pairs a sultry, subtle, funky brand of soul music with the warm, powerful, and totally unique vocals and lyrics of Mike Milosh.

Pressed between 1943 and 1949, V Discs (or Victory Discs) boosted the morale of U.S. soldiers at the warfront and kept them up to date with the latest music from home. They were freely distributed but forbidden for sale, and the FBI would even have powers to destroy all copies in circulation at war’s end. Every great artist of the period made a patriotic gesture, and the records contained every genre: jazz, classical, pop, blues and folk. Jazz was fashionable then and took the lion’s share; it became an emblem for the liberators of Europe before spreading across the world. This 4CD set compiled by Jean-Baptiste Mersiol is a portrait in sound of American music trends during World War II, but it also reserves surprises in the form of some fantastic treasures, like the very first version of Louis Prima’s international standard, “Just A Gigolo”, and messages to the troops sent by the artists themselves.

Combine elements from Mew, Radiohead, Bon Iver, Meshuggah and guitarist Wayne Krantz, and you will come close to what Addiktio sounds like. Ranging from emotional melodic lines to weird jazz-rock riffs, from soft slide-melodies to progressive metalriffs, all played with rawk-attitude and a wide sound-palette.

The greatest mod and northern soul album is designed and signed as a reference on your choice of several exchangers file.
