Chuwanaga (France), 2023. New Copy ... $27.99 32.99
A mighty nice trio, and one with a lot darker sound than you might expect from the "casual jazz" reference in the title! The group features keyboards, bass, and drums – all used in ways that draw on older fusion modes, but which have a more laidback, 21st Century vibe – an ...

(The one-time self-released debut – finally on vinyl!)
Dead Oceans, 2022. New Copy ... Just Sold Out!
A really great follow-up to the first collaboration between Khruangbin and Leon Bridges – one with a title that's similar to the first, but a sound that's nicely different too! It's almost as if the group take the "moon" in the title seriously – and go for a more laidback, ... (Deep Funk, Neo Soul) read more LP, Vinyl record album

Takuya Kuroda —
Midnight Crisp EP ... LP First Word (UK), 2022. New Copy ... Temporarily Out Of Stock
A set that furthers Takuya Kuroda's experiments in pushing farther past the jazz of his roots – still graced with plenty of strong trumpet work and bold solo lines – but amidst rhythms that have a nice complexity, and which really push the envelope at times – mostly played live, ...

LaBlue & Astronne —
Blue Phases ... LP Roche (France), 2023. New Copy ... Out Of Stock
Lean and spacey soul – a perfect blend of the vocals of Astronne and the laidback instrumentation of LaBlue – served up in the kind of hazy, sunny tracks that remind us a lot of the contemporary LA scene!

Steve Lacy —
Gemini Rights ... LP RCA, 2022. New Copy ... Out Of Stock
Steve Lacy's one of those artists who are really helping to rewrite the sound of soul music for his generation – first by stripping down his sound with some surprisingly simple and effective techniques – and here, building things back up again, but at a level that's very different than ... read more LP, Vinyl record album
Ledisi —
Ledisi Sings Nina ... LP BMG, 2021. New Copy Gatefold ... Out Of Stock
We've loved the music of soul singer Ledisi since her first self-released album back in the 90s – and since that time, she's matured even more as a vocalist – to a point where she can easily take on the music of Nina Simone with all the glory it deserves! This special set features ... read more LP, Vinyl record album

Luxxury —
Alright (red vinyl pressing) ... LP Nolita, 2023. New Copy ... Out Of Stock
Lean grooves with plenty of soul – a sweet set of tracks with a very 80s vibe – the kind of stripped-down club work from that period after disco, but at a time when the music was still influenced by the soulful sound of the late 70s – just served up with beats, basslines, and ...

Bruno Mars —
24K Magic ... LP Atlantic, 2016. New Copy (reissue)... Out Of Stock
A bristling, crackling, completely charming set from Bruno Mars – and a record that lives up to all the best promise he has to offer!

American Dreams, 2023. New Copy ... $13.99 21.99
A really nice side project from the excellent Mourning A BLKstar collective – spare sounds with a different vibe than the work of the larger group, but which comes across with an equally righteous sound overall!

A great one from Monday Michiru – sweet, soulful, and totally right on the money!
