Orpheus was the child of Apollo, the god of music, and Calliope, the eldest of the muses. With his playing, he was able to enchant people and to tame wild animals. The story of Orpheus and Eurydice is one of the most beautiful mythological stories about the power of love. No wonder Claudio Monteverdi, the father of early opera, chose this story as the theme of his legendary work. During this musical journey, we are led by the muses, and following in Orpheus’s footsteps, we reach the goal of the music marked out by Monteverdi: to touch the soul of listeners, to awaken their feelings, and to speak to the heart.

The music of Gabriel Fauré is at once unclassifiable and inexpressibly beautiful. One must yield to its seductions, savour in it the charm of the unexpected. The cello is the voice of the Fauré mélodie without the words. Its mellowness conceals passion. When Xavier Phillips and Cédric Tiberghien take possession of it, it becomes sensual, incandescent, a bouquet of refined, evergreen harmonies. The Élégie and the Berceuse will never fade, nor will the two late cello sonatas, whose surging vitality is that of a young man of more than seventy!

“The starting point of this record is a quote from the film director Orson Welles, which evokes the notion of accident in the creative process. I always thought that accidents were an integral part of creation and the job of a film or music director is also to know how to capture them in order to make the accident an artistic intention. I decided not to follow a well established concept but this more instinctive guideline and to go fishing for accidents”.

Trauffer, eigentlich Marc A. Trauffer (*1979 in Brienz), ist ein Schweizer Mundart-Popsänger aus dem Berner Oberland. Bekannt wurde Trauffer als Sänger der Berner Band Airbäg, die zwischen 1997 und 2005 vier Chartalben vorweisen konnte. Die Band fiel auseinander und nach einem privaten Rückschlag durch das Scheitern seiner Ehe dauerte es bis 2008, bis er mit seinem Debütalbum Pallanza seine Solokarriere startete. Benannt ist es nach dem Ort Pallanza im italienischen Piemont, wohin er sich während seiner privaten Krise zurückgezogen hatte.
Mit den Nachfolger-Alben Dr Heimat z’lieb (2010) und Fischer & Jäger (2013) konnte er an die früheren Banderfolge anknüpfen. Das Abum Fischer&Jäger erreichte Goldstatus. 2014 folgte dann Alpentainer, welches mit Platin ausgezeichnet wurde.
2009 übernimmt Marc Trauffer zudem die Holzspielwarenfabrik Trauffer seiner Eltern und führt sie seither als Inhaber. Gleichzeitig engagierte er sich bis Mitte 2014 im Gemeinderat seiner Heimatgemeinde Hofstetten und bis Anfang 2015 als Vizepräsident vom Freilichtmuseum Ballenberg.

With “Nectar Of The Gods” The Spacelords take their unmistakable sound to new, astral heights.
The Spacelords – the galactic grooving space rockers in the stoner space-time continuum – grace our solar sound system with their latest album.
“Nectar Of The Gods” is the 6th studio album on the Tonzonen Records label of the exceptional formation founded in 2008, which has been thrilling an ever-growing fan base worldwide since May 2014 with the perfect line-up.
After exuberant reactions to the previous studio albums, the Spacelords open another outrageous chapter in their original, magical all-atlas.
The constantly reinventing, deeply interwoven interplay of the trio captivates the stoner, space and kraut rock community with its devoted joy of playing, as only true friends can muster.
In one of the four epic new tracks, the gigantic attraction of the massive space lord Sterns has once again attracted a sympathetic messenger from the neighboring keyboard universe: “Lost Sound of Lemuria” is refined by the friendly guest Lord Jens Eberhard (Jewelled Moon) with brilliant Fender Rhodes and Organ sounds.
Thus, four impressive new songs were created in the home studio, which are highly recognizable as well as atmospherically convincing.

Tyrone Davis – I Can’t Go On This Way (1978/2016)
FLAC (tracks) 24 bit/96 kHz | Time – 39:59 minutes | 816 MB | Genre: R&B
Studio Masters, Official Digital Download | Front Cover | © Legacy Recordings
A late 70s gem from Tyrone’s years on Columbia Records – one that shows both sides of his talents for the label! The set starts out with an extended clubby groover called ‘Get On Up (Disco)’ – a bumping sort of number that’s clearly trying to push him into Johnnie Taylor territory, and which comes off surprisingly well. But even better are the rest of the tracks on the set – which update Tyrone’s older Brunswick sound with a smoother, more sophisticated sort of style – still recorded in Chicago, and with some southern soul traces – but usually done in a warmer midtempo groove, with excellent lead vocals and great backing from The Haywood Sisters. Titles include ‘It’s You It’s You’, ‘Bunky’, ‘All I Ever Need’, ‘I Can’t Go On This Way’, and ‘Can’t Help But Say’.
