Trúbrot was the first supergroup ever founded in Iceland. It was created in May 1969 when leading members of ‘Hljómar’ (Sounds) and ‘Flowers’ set out to create the finest Icelandic rock group of all time. Guitarist and composer Gunnar Thórgarson, bass player and singer Rúnar Júlíusson and lead vocalist Shady Owens of Hljómar had been plotting this for some months, along with organist Karl Sighvatsson and drummer Gunnar Jökull Hákonarson of Flowers, before the band’s genesis was announced publicly.

These are probably the rarest Takemitsu recordings around. Toru Takemitsu composed music for at least 70 films (I have read that it's actually around 90 but I haven't researched this) and the music can be exceptionally wide-ranging: traditional Japanese soloists and ensembles, Western classical tradition, avant-garde and everything in between (jazzy lounge and space age music, anyone?) I feel that some of his best film scores are those which have his delicate Debussian touches combined with traditional Asian music and soloists.

From the five-hundred-year old musical history of the Sufi Fakirs of Bengal to the virtuoso musicianship of Calcutta’s guitar master Debashsish Bhattacharya and Carnatic violinist Jyotsna Srikanth, this Rough Guide explores India’s spiritual connections with its ancient musical traditions.

A long-awaited new album from KENSO, the king of Japanese progressive rock, released for the first time in about 10 years since his previous album, "Nainaru Koe Ni Kaikou Seyo". This masterpiece album is full of "progressive love" and has been completed after a long production period, incorporating elements of rock, classical music, and now a "Japanese taste", telling the view of life, which can be said to be one of the elements of progressive rock, through music!! The 11 songs, created by filtering the progressive rock that has been handed down since ancient times through KENSO’s original filter, are not only original and overwhelmingly complete, but also stand out as works of art!! This is a work that is sure to strike a chord with all rock fans!
