SENDELICA

The Fruits de Mer record label will be releasing "An Introduction To Sendelica", a 4 CD set. 

Sendelica are Wales’ best kept secret, a psychedelic rock band from West Wales composed of core members Pete Bingham (guitar), Glenda Pescado (bass) and Jack Jackson (drums), Lee Relfe (sax) and the inimitable Colin Consterdine (beats, keys and production). They have regularly collaborated with many musicians including Damo Suzuki, Nik Turner, Twink and The Orb.

"An Introduction To Sendelica" will include the band's version of FZ's 'Don't Eat The Yellow Snow", previously released on 7" in 2017.

This 4 CD set will be released next month.

DIJF SANDERS - TANGKOA II

With ‘Tangkoa II’, Belgian producer and multi-instrumentalist Dijf Sanders invites listeners into a vibrant and immersive sonic world shaped by travel, collaboration and instinct. Released via Unday Records, the album grew out of field recordings captured during a journey through Vietnam, later transformed into rhythmic, colourful compositions that feel both intimate and expansive.

With contributions from Vitja Pauwels (guitar), Viktor Perdieus (saxophone) and Louise van den Heuvel (bass).

Out on Unday Records.

HERMINE DEURLOO & ANTON GOUDSMIT

Hermine Deurloo & Anton Goudsmit released "Unfiltered" on the Challenge Records label.

Two of the most distinctive voices in Dutch jazz join forces: harmonica virtuoso Hermine Deurloo and guitarist Anton Goudsmit. What begins as a playful exchange between lyricism and groove unfolds into a concert full of unexpected twists, inventive improvisations, and idiosyncratic compositions—plus recognizable covers.

ADRIAN BELEW - JULIE SLICK - MARCO MINNEMANN

Eric Slick being featured on the recent Mike Keneally release had my pal Jeroen diving in his archives.

As a result, I'm listening to a recording of the Adrian Belew Power Trio, in concert on October 27, 2010, broadcast on the Dutch VPRO JazzLive radio show on March 3, 2011.

The Adrian Belew Trio. Not with Eric, but with Eric's sister Julie. And with Marco Minnemann on the drums.
Thank you, Jeroen.

Here's a YouTube clip from that very same concert:

TONNEN VON HALL

• Tonnen von Hall: Donnermesser
      (2026, download / streaming, --, bandcamp)
      (2026, cd ep, --, --)

Tonnen von Hall features Markus Reuter and Alexander Dowerk on Touch Guitars, and Asaf Sirkis on drums.

The trio released the "Antlitz" EP in November 2024, followed by their "Ein Abdruck Vom Messer Im Herzen" album in January 2025.

And now, they're back.
They're back with a mini album, presenting alternate versions of previously released compositions.
Cherry on the cake are the guest appearances by Jan Zehrfeld (Panzerballett), Sally Gates (Titan To Tachyons), and Jørgen Munkeby (Shining, Jaga Jazzist).

Listening to the album (headphones!), it feels as though my senses are stretched to their limit.

Prepare to be obliterated by their twin guitar pyrotechnics and mesmerising polyrhythms. Tonnen von Hall's discordant guitar riffs and twisted rhythms push the envelope of tech metal, blending cerebral chromatic harmonies with intuitive solos that soar above the organic machinery below. The thunderous drumming and razor-sharp riffs drive the sound forward, creating a rave-like ecstasy that is both exhilarating and hypnotic.

Math rock, and it this particular case: the perfect mixture of jazz, prog and metal.

I love it !!

The album has been released through Bandcamp for download and streaming but it's also available on CD !

ALEC K. REDFEARN AND THE EYESORES

The Cuneiform Record label added a 15' bonus live track to ALEC K. REDFEARN AND THE EYESORES' "The Smother Party".

The live bonus track (#10) was appended in May, 2026 with Alec's full endorsement. This is a rare, good quality recording of the large scale Eyesores in full, LOUD concert flight!

 
It's not perfect, but it captures something aggressive and noisy, with Frank Difficult conjuring up hell as a full member of the ensemble!

 
If you already own this album, this track is now yours for no charge and you can stream it download it and enjoy it evermore.

If you don't already own this album or know this band, head on over and listen to the last track!
