​This is a reissue of a live registration by acid jazz band The Brand Heavies out of 1992 in Shibuya, Tokyo. They bring their biggest hits and shake the audience with super funky instrumental tunes and sung tunes. Highly recommended!

​Let's be clear for once ……. This series is not intended for softies! The rebellion associated with the genre, especially in the early days of rock and roll, is also in the 30 formidable instrumental tracks that fill volume 2 of the ‘Whip Masters Instrumentals’ series. Fire-breathing guitars, all searing saxophones that hit you relentlessly in the face and the vocal primal screams, certainly contribute to this. Features that can all be found on this album.
With the creation of the Whip Masters Instrumentals, composer Mark Armstrong has tapped an area that offers an abundance of fantastic rock and roll, rockabilly, surf and western swing. Just like the previously published volume 1, this edition is also worth having in your collection. Curious what will follow!

The twelve songs are written by Tiano and in the tracks he is often accompanied by a whole series of guest musicians. The project "Creétisvan" includes twelve creative melodic songs that provide a timeless framework for Mike Tiano’s artistic and artful musical brain.
For the enthusiasts…!

​European americana shows more punch and emotion.  The Secret Combination take their time to compose decent songs that touch your heart.  Strong album!

​It is also moving very fast in the series ‘The Mojo Man Special’. The large number of high quality danceable rhythm & blues songs from the last century beg to be featured on a compilation. In this case, these are 24 ‘dance floor killers’ from the archives of labels like Sue, RCA Victor, Deluxe, King, Excello, Federal, Columbia, Okeh, Specialty and Chess. A great mix of rhythm & blues, blues, rock and roll and instrumental songs.
In other words, volume 4 has something for everyone too. The series may be billed as ‘dance floor killers’, but these songs are also extremely enjoyable when sitting in your chair, with a glass of wine or a cool beer.

​The Covid 19 pandemic, unfortunately we still cannot get out of it. And also Popa Chubby, like so many of us, is almost completely bored. Although a musician is always inspired to write a lot of songs. Popa used his time useful, wrote many songs together and recorded eleven unadulterated blues rock tracks. The result is the release "Tinfoil Hat",  an album that he dedicates in memory of all of Covid’s victims. The songs where recorded at his Chubbyland studio in Hudson Valley. As a multi-instrumentalist, Popa plays all the instruments by himself. He immediately denounces the policy that Trump pursued during the lockdown in the title track.
The tone has been set, the musical path has been paved. Popa Chubby is diverging like never before. Superb release...!

​This second compilation of the International Composition Contest in 2017 brings 16 tracks of minimalistic jazz from unknown artists. Ideal for those who love that genre, and want to discover new musicians!

Prog from the Netherlands, always interesting.  The band convinces with their debut ‘No Air’, a dynamic and melodious album with great guitar riffs,  a driving rythm and velvet voices.  Try it!

​This album will certainly appeal to fans of solo guitar music. It brings an elegant and intimate atmosphere.

​Produced by Chris Burns, the album was recorded by Kid Andersen at his Greaseland Studios in San Jose. Big Georges once again surrounded himself with many top talents. The late Little Charlie Baty, Kid Andersen with the bass lines, drummer June Corr, Chris Burns and D'Mar (keyboard) are, in addition to a lot of backing vocals and that wind section, just a few of the guest musicians. Big George Harp redefined in the past, as it were, the role of chromatic harmonica in blues, just as William Clark ever did in the 90s. Still, the sound is now slightly diverging from his release "Uptown Cool". A lot of swinging blues, soul, some jazz and blues ballads and a Caribbean tone make from  'Living In The City' a great album. The multi-talented Big Harp George is a great band leader.

​This first compilation of the International Composition Contest in 2017 brings 14 tracks of minimalistic jazz from unknown artists. Ideal for those who love that genre, and want to discover new musicians!

​With the mention ‘tuning the guitar for new adventures’ you know what to expect. 28 tracks in which the guitar is in the spotlight and which sometimes also provided a fresh and innovative sound when they were created. In other words rhythm & blues and blues at the highest level.
It goes without saying that quality reigns supreme on this album as well. Again, there is not a single inferior song to be found. So you really do get value for your hard-earned money. Recommended!

​This album by the jazz quartet of the Italian saxophonist Carla Marciano is a homage to the great film composer Bernard Herrmann. Seven tracks were arranged, revised and adapted with lots of room for improvisations. In addition you get a homage to maestro John Williams. Perhaps for film lovers who also like a bit of jazz?

​The third album by singer-songwriter & multi-instrumentalist Judith Hill is a varied package that certainly will appeal to fans raised on a diet of funk, soul and R&B. She brings piano ballades as well as real soul songs and psychedelic funk/rock. 

Four songs, two different genres. That is exactly what makes this audio piece a pleasant introduction to that differentiated sound of the band Black River Bluesman & Big Alligator and the blues duo Andres Roots & Red Mouth

​Great compilation with a lot of unknown bands with their magnificent creations.  21 bands show that the Krautrock style is alive and kicking your head away.

In a short time the KokoMojo label released four volumes in the ‘Rock and Roll Vixens’ series. If we go through the track list of these albums for a moment, you will inevitably come to the following conclusion. While many African American singers made fantastic rhythm & blues recordings, only a few could taste the fame. Not that their names sound completely unknown, but the successes they deserved more or less failed to materialize. However, it is never too late to discover these artists and their songs. That is why a series like ‘Rock and Roll Vixens’ is extremely welcome. Volume 4 also bundles 25 rhythm & blues songs that you must have heard.
In short, volume 4 of ‘Rock and Roll Vixens’ is another album to cherish.

​Dark and deep songs, but honest and sincere.  One of the best albums of 2020. Just love it!

​A perfect collection of pop songs, infused with electronica. Farrah has a nice voice, and Richard is a sought after producer and session musician, while he is also a member of the band Treshold. This album generates a good feeling, and that is what need right now.
