Be it the folk of the Appalachians, the tales of Hungarian and Transylvanian traditionals, singer-songwriter Dávid Makó, who redefined himself as THE DEVIL’S TRADE a few years ago, fuses his past of metal and his roots laying deep in the folk songs of his immediate surroundings. Very much like the Iron Peak, a mountaintop both metaphorical and literal is calling for Makó, he is calling for you to share his rituals of loves and hopes lost and found along the pilgrimage of his. It is after all, the journey itself that matters the most, and how you adapt. From basements in his hometown of Budapest, to all corners of Europe, stages small and big, THE DEVIL’S TRADE has been relentlessly walking on his path finding his voice and calling, and that is to let listeners to glimpse into himself through his heart wrenching songs.

As menacing and unhinged as ever, the pride of Staten Island is back with their fifth full-length offering, V. Raw and absent of the modern technological trappings, the Budos pick up where they left off with 2014’s Burnt Offering, and finds the Budos expanding on the brooding, fuzz-fueled riffs, whilst harkening back to the Ethiopian inspired rhythms and percussive proclivity that put Budos Band on the map.

This is the long awaited follow-up to The Devil And The Almighty Blues’ highly acclaimed self-titled debut album, and these guys have not gone astray! The album ‘II’ gives a peep through the pinhole at a band’s honest, dark and pure expression, drawing influences from the original delta blues via the electrical revolution in the late sixties/ early seventies, to the more contemporary desert scene. Formed in the rock’n’roll underground of Oslo, Norway in 2010, The Devil And The Almighty Blues have captured the attention of blues and rock enthusiasts from all corners of the globe. And with good reason: Filled with a profound love for the old heroes of the blues, for rock, metal and punk, they bring something extraordinary to the scene. In cooperation with Blues For The Red Sun, a label based in arctic Norway, DATAB are ready to unleash their second album on the world at last! Armed with vintage Gibson guitars and tube amplifiers, they recorded ‘II’ live in Ocean Sound Recording Studio on the edge of the North Sea. This was to preserve the natural and musical energy, the desperation and dark joy we know and love from their live shows. DATAB represent a new take on blues-based rock; heavy without becoming metal, dark without being doom, bluesy without being straight up and boring. The album has turned out melodic, raw and unbelievably heavy. This is far from being a possible hit on the radio, but who cares?

Detroit Emeralds – Greatest Hits (1971/2019) [Official Digital Download 24bit/44,1kHz]

Studio Masters, Official Digital Download | Front Cover | © Janus Records

This album collects all of the highlights from the Detroit Emeralds’ ’70s recordings, including the U.K. hits ‘Feel the Need in Me,’ ‘You Want It You Got It’ and ‘I Think of You,’ making it the definitive career overview of this underrated soul group. Anyone who boogied through the disco era will remember the tune ‘Feel The Need’ – it’s right up there with ‘I Will Survive’, ‘We Are Family’, and – dare I say it – ‘YMCA’, as one of just a handful of true mirror-ball anthems. What’s more it’s still played today. You can hear it in discerning clubs where the 70s feel still rules. The funky brass stabs and shimmering strings of ‘Feel The Need’ are a sure guarantee to get the punters off the wall and on their feet. But ask those self same punters to name the band responsible for this epic piece of dance floor magic and they’d probably be at a complete loss. More’s the pity ‘cos the band – The Detroit Emeralds – were more than just one hit disco wonders! This new 24 tracker is an attempt to put the record straight – it contains no less than 11 tracks which were hits in some shape or form both in the UK and in the US, some classy B-sides, a slew of sophisticated album tracks and, to complete the picture, two unreleased gems!

The Dessoff Choirs & Malcolm J. Merriweather – Margaret Bonds: The Ballad of the Brown King & Selected Songs (2019) [Official Digital Download 24bit/96kHz]

Music by African American composers has received renewed attention in the 21st century, but that of Margaret Bonds remains neglected. This is so even though her career stretched from the “Harlem Renaissance” to the years of the civil rights movements, and even though, in her day, she was probably more prominent than her contemporaries. She wrote arrangements of spirituals that were (and remain) widely sung, and the present Christmas cantata, The Ballad of the Brown King, was performed in 1960 by the Westminster Choir and broadcast on CBS television. This is the cantata’s world premiere recording, and it counts as a major event. Capsule descriptions of the work emphasize its African American elements — jazz, blues, calypso, and more — but listen here, and you’ll find that what’s distinctive about the music is that those elements, at least until the rousing final Alleluia, are muted. They’re there, but they’re elegantly integrated into neo-Romantic choral polyphony. In this, Bonds creates a perfect match for the poetry of Langston Hughes, unmistakably African American in theme, but less marked by linguistic vernaculars than that of his contemporaries. The text deals with Balthazar, the “brown king” who was one of the Three Wise Men, and asks about Jesus, “Could he have been an Ethiope?” The mood is joyous, and conductor Malcolm J. Merriweather forges lovely limpid textures from the Dessoff Choirs. Merriweather also appears as a soloist in a group of songs by Bonds, again with texts by Hughes, whom she knew well. These are more influenced by African American idioms and are also worth getting to know. However, The Ballad of the Brown King is a work ideally suited to the present day. It’s within reach for any choir. It’s transparent, yet deeply felt, and it marks an important addition, thanks to Merriweather and company, to the American choral repertory.

“Heroes On Empty Streets” is the third album of French band The Descline! The band moves somewhere between melodic punk rock, rock’n’roll and folk-punk and actually the band can not fit into any genre because you have their own sound. All in all, you will hear 12 hits, which are all hymns suspicious and go very well. This is a genuine punk-rock music with a folk and country flavour.

American vibraphonist Dave Pike gained fame from his work throughout the 60’s with popular jazz flutist Herbie Mann, recording 11 albums with Mann’s groups, also recorded with legendary pianists Bill Evans and Paul Bley. On moving to Europe, the Dave Pike Set became an instant success through the combination of Pike’s vibes play and German Volker Kriegel’s electric, acoustic, guitar and sitar play. Kriegel’s compositions helped create the quartet’s unique sound, encompassing jazz, funk, psychedelia, avant-garde, and ethno.

In 2016 The Breath, a duo with a heavily poetic writing style, impressed with their debut album Carry Your Kin. Two years later, they’re posing in front of misty scenery for their new album cover. It’s landscape reminiscent of their native Manchester from where they bring this traditional folk music, a brilliant fusion of Rioghnach Connolly’s light and airy vocals and Stuart McCallum’s genius effects. These two characters seem to be complete opposites and yet they mix like water and wine, as illustrated by their second album Let The Cards Fall. With John Ellis on the piano, Sam Vickery on the bass, and Luke Flowers on the drums, The Breath dive into a soft and personal folk style to bring out deep and intense feelings.
