The pan flutes (also known as panpipes or syrinx) are a group of musical instruments based on the principle of the closed tube, consisting of multiple pipes of gradually increasing length (and occasionally girth). Multiple varieties of pan flutes have long been popular as folk instruments. The pipes are typically made from bamboo, giant cane, or local reeds. Other materials include wood, plastic, metal and ivory.

The best-known alter ego of the Harry Vanda/George Young songwriting team (the creative force behind the Easybeats), Flash and the Pan began simply as a between-production project in 1976. By 1979, the project had turned out a novelty hit with the single "Hey St. Peter." A second single, "Down Among the Dead," also became a hit throughout Australia and Europe, inspiring the release of the album Flash and the Pan. American radio began playing import copies which led to a deal with Epic Records. The album would soon reach the Top 100 in the U.S. despite the lack of a supporting tour.

És un projecte que neix de les ganes de Miguel Royo de trobar nous horitzons en el llenguatge saxofonístic. Així, el 2014 decideix endinsar-se de ple en el món del flamenc, convertint-se en el primer saxofonista del món en completar un màster com a intèrpret de flamenc prenent com a referències el cant i la guitarra, el saxo i la flauta ens porten per un repertori de jazz-flamenc on es podem escoltar influències de Paco de Lucia o Camarón, passant per Charlie Parker.
Presented in a stylish 4-CD box set, here is a comprehensive recording of one of the most enigmatic manuscripts in the history of European music, preserved in the museum at the Château de Chantilly, France. ‘Anything that can be sung, can be written in music notation,’ claimed an anonymous treatise on notation in the late fourteenth century. The harmonies thus ‘captured’ on parchment represent an apex in Western music, associated with the wealthiest courts in Christendom, called ‘decadent’ by some.
Originally released in March 1996, Second Toughest In The Infants is Underworld’s masterpiece. Following 1994’s ground breaking predecessor dubnobasswithmyheadman (the record that cemented the band’s reputation as one of the UK’s most important dance acts), Second Toughest… was the point they forged out alone, in turn creating some of the most forward thinking electronic music this country has ever produced. This new release sees the album remastered for the first time and collects together rare singles, remixes and unreleased studio and live tracks.
