'Fact Finding Mission' (180gm LP + HD Download Code) Trichotomy have carved out a reputation as one of the most exicting trios in contempoary jazz combining the lyricism of EST and the energy levels of The Bad Plus while nonetheless finding their own unique voice. "an absorbingly varied menu... memorably moving" 4* The Guardian "catchy lines, strong moods and beaty rhythms" Financial Times £12.99 / €14.99 / $19.99 | |
| 'The Face Of Mount Molehill' (180gm LP + HD Download Code) Cowley creates thrilling music defined by powerful rip-roaring riffs punctuated by passages of sheer delicacy. Recorded for the first time with a string ensemble, this album of deeply engaging instrumental music conveys passion and emotion that defy the need for words. "the greatest stadium-filling anthems that Coldplay never wrote" 4* UNCUT Magazine "set audiences bopping to a smart splicing of punchy themes and chord-belting, rock-piano climaxes" 4* The Guardian £12.99 / €14.99 / $19.99 |
'Say It To My Face' (180gm LP + HD Download Code) Say It To My Face is a bold, beautiful, poignant, funny, profoundly authentic old-school rock 'n' roll blast. Ex-Fun Lovin' Criminal Huey Morgan's disarmingly candid storytelling recalls the bluesmen of old, but with a unique twist befitting the post hip-hop generation. "bold, beautiful... old-school rock 'n' roll blast" Mojo "a melting pot of blues, country and hip hop... a worthy project" Classic Rock £12.99 / €14.99 / $19.99 | |
| 'OC DC' (180gm LP + HD Download Code) With an unclassifiable sound alike the grandchild of a spaghetti western, the Canterbury scene, melancholic trip hop and krautrock, this quirky Bristolian quartet's new album marks a more mature, exploratory sound that is so much more than what the media have branded ‘punk jazz'. Features Robert Wyatt and Adrian Utley of Portishead. "mixes the spirit of Ornette Coleman with the electric thump of indie rock... OC DC is their most convincing yet" The Times "grinding, hypnotic basslines...strong melodies.. Sometimes flirting with dub and a cerebral brand of fusion that recalls Soft Machine" 4* Uncut £12.99 / €14.99 / $19.99 |
| 'The Pines' (180gm LP + HD Download Code) Produced by Marc Ford of the Black Crowes, channeling two years of relentless touring, The Pines sees country-soul sextet Phantom Limb in a space that is very much their own. "an airy west coast twang guilds the strong melodies" 4* The Telegraph "what modern pop has lacked recently... wonderful" The Guardian £12.99 / €14.99 / $19.99 |
'The Wages Of Fear' (180gm LP + HD Download Code) A bible of bruises, literary split lips and the kind of shiver-inducing depth of feeling you haven't experienced since you first heard Bruce Springsteen. TWOF is the acclaimed sophomore album of this cult alt-indie quartet. "a summery haze of sing-a-long vocals and buoyant drums...magic" Q Magazine "it took a long time but the wait is well worth it" 4* Kerrang! Magazine £12.99 / €14.99 / $19.99 | |
| 'Radio Silence' (180gm LP) Described by Cowley as music for the ‘heart and feet', Radio Silence shifts effortlessly between moments of poetic grace, rip-roaring riffs and Chaplinesque ditties that reminds us that for all his many influences, Cowley's music is as British as ‘Test Match Special', warm beer or a bacon sarnie. "Cowley gives the modern piano trio a distinctly English spin with danceable and daring results." Time Out £12.99 / €14.99 / $19.99 |
| 'Future Sons & Daughters' (180gm LP) At times sounding like Jim James of My Morning Jacket singing his way through Beck's lost album between Mutations and Midnite Vultures, Future Sons & Daughters brings together the best of musical worlds, rippling through classic roots sounds. Beautifully recorded retro-Californian pop music to brighten your day. "one of the great pop albums of the year...an album to fall in love with" 5* Sunday Express "This cerebral rumination on life from the LA songsmith channel Beach Boys-esque pop noir and Beck's genre-hopping" Q Magazine £12.99 / €14.99 / $19.99 |
| 'All The Ghosts' (180gm LP) With one foot in the jazz world and the other somewhere in the not-so-distant future, young chanteuse Gwyneth Herbert brings intelligence and whimsy to infectious original songs with a powerful yet unmistakably soothing voice. "Her singing - warm, soulful, and with a husky hint of Elkie Brooks - is classy throughout" Mojo Magazine "The airy, acoustic arrangements are imaginative, full of shifting tempos and textures." The Times £12.99 / €14.99 / $19.99 |
'Touch Wood' (180gm LP) Antonio has been hailed as "the Jimi Hendrix of the acoustic guitar". Touch Wood is inspired as much by Italian folk music and Pat Metheny as it is by Brazilian, Spanish and Cuban music. One of Forcione's finest studio albums to date. "World class is no exaggeration" The Scotsman "virtuoso... sculpting memorable pop-jazz tunes" The Sunday Times £12.99 / €14.99 / $19.99 | |
| 'Heartplay' (180gm LP) Legendary bassist and Grammy Lifetime Achievement Award winner Charlie Haden exchanges musical musings with the supremely talented Antonio Forcione.

"a beautifully recorded album" The Guardian "an exquisite meeting of two highly compatible musical minds" The Scotsman £12.99 / €14.99 / $19.99 |
| 'Remember The River' (180gm LP) Remember The River sees Chicagoan contemporary composer and pianist Fred Simon in a trio setting once again, this time accompanied by the musical alchemists Paul McCandless (of Oregon) on reeds and the award winning musician/producer Steve Rodby on double bass (also of Pat Metheny Group). "it's hard not to be impressed by the lyricism" Jazzwise "Melodic and beautifully played" Hi Fi Plus £12.99 / €14.99 / $19.99 |
| 'None But The Lonely Heart' (180gm LP) New Yorker pianist Chris Anderson was top of Charlie Haden's list to collaborate with on a recording for Naim, in this rare spotlight on two instrumental greats. Due to an unfortunate rare disease that left Anderson blind and predominantly house bound, Anderson, though credited with teaching Herbie Hancock to play piano, never received the broad recognition he deserved for his unique idiosyncratic style. A True Stereo analogue recording. "full of everything that's good about a much-devalued genre" 4* Downbeat "Understated grace is everywhere in evidence on this recording" Jazzwise £12.99 / €14.99 / $19.99 |
| 'Dedicato' (180gm LP) Forcione's Naim debut, Dedicato is the perfect showcase for Forcione's unmistakable yet somehow broad style of guitar playing. Varying from nylon to steel string, Forcione also demonstrates his ability to arrange for other instruments, and his skill as a percussionist. "Imagine Django Rheinhardt with 20 fingers" The Independent "A brilliant Latin-fusion fretsman" Time Out £12.99 / €14.99 / $19.99 |
'Meet Me In London' (180gm LP) Combining Forcione's undisputed talent with the outstanding ability of Sabina, this recording is breathtaking in sound and performance quality. A stunning album of jazz standards, beautiful original compositions and rearranged pop classics. "vocal and instrumental instrumental timbres to die for...stunning" What Hi Fi "a highly impressive duo debut" Jazz Rag £12.99 / €14.99 / $19.99 | |

Recorded in front of a lucky invited audience at Trinity Centre in Tunbridge Wells. "dynamic interplay and ceaseless invention to perfection" Jazzwize "as forceful a workout as you'll hear from any heavyweight jazz-rockers" The Sunday Times £14.99 / €19.99 / $24.99 |

The Naim Label re-issued this beautiful triple album to celebrate Charlie Haden's 70th birthday. "Haden at his majestically deliberate best" 4* The Guardian "thoughtful, spacious, rhythmically subtle and inventive improvisation" 4* Downbeat £19.99 / €24.99 / $29.99 |
