January 26 street date. With "Heroine", the German melodic indie jazz outfit Ameli In The Woods announces their profoundly emotional and slightly trippy debut album "Throw My Fears Into The River", processing the fears of a human being living through the struggles of her generation. The album is an ode to believing in yourself, and acceping and healing from traumas and doubts that kept you back. Every song is a snapshot of a feeling of Ameli Paul's life from intimately fragile to progressively exploding. Ameli allows her emotions to flow through her unique musical language one that, despite its complexity, conveys a poignant melancholy that resonates easily. Central to this enchanting soundscape is her versatile and extraordinary voice, which radiates in a myriad of colours. This mesmerizing sound is further enhanced and complemented by the exceptional band. Effortlessly, the renowned musicians create the perfect musical backdrop for each song, seamlessly weaving themselves into the intricate tapestry of the music. In fusing boldly and radically influences such as indie, progressive, jazz, electronica, psychedelic, pop and experimental music, it's a distinctive, diverse work of art; away from the mainstream, but still captivating and highly intuitive.

January 26 street date. THE FLEETWOODS, with their gentle, oft-wistful signature harmonies, took the U.S. charts by storm during 1959 with a pair of million-selling, U.S. #1 records, ‘Come Softly To Me’ and ‘Mr Blue’. They continued to register with follow-ups and by 1962 they’d clocked up sufficient chart entries to qualify for a “Greatest Hits” set, which would go on to become their biggest-selling album. Earlier in ’62 they’d released another oldies package, the rather clumsily titled “The Fleetwoods Sing The Best Goodies Of The Oldies”, a nonetheless splendid LP which was their tribute to the hit songs that they’d listened to as teenagers, back in the 50s. These two LPs, plus their 1962 singles, notably their huge hit ‘Lovers By Night, Strangers By Day’, are collated together on this collection. Several of these sides are impossible to find elsewhere on CD, making this a must-have release.
