It was/is my intention with NARP to not only shine a light on new music, release and re-issues/re-masters (R, R & M), but to introduce a rather eclectic mix of music to members of the New Album Releases Project (NARP).
Members have asked why I focus so much on re-issues/re-masters, and I’ve had to explain that in some cases their exposure in NARP may very well be the first time, recording artists/ensembles/groups will have come upon their respective radar.
A number of you have asked that I list those which really struck a chord with me in. both sections, and so do from now on. Fair enough, we’ll see how long it lasts.
- White Dog – White Dog
- Surfjan Stevens – The Ascension
- Jamie Barton, Jake Heggie, Matt Haimovitz – Unexpected Shadows
- Moses Boyd – Dark Matter
- Orgone – Connection
- Gareth Koch – The Guitar Player
- Snarky Puppy – Tell Your Friends
- Richard & Linda Thompson – Hard Luck Stories
- Curtis Amy – Eye to Eye
- Gewandhausorchester, Herbert Blomstedt – Brahms: Symphony No. 1 & Tragic Overture
- Jess Gillam – TIME
It was nice to see/hear some familiar faces: Joan Osborne, Steve Hackett, and Diana Krall
I have to say that the band White Dog is going to be on my radar. High marks to Rise Above Records in the UK for taking a punt and signing them to their label.
