PO: new BERSARIN QUARTETT / THE SAMUEL JACKSON 5

[denovalirecords]

Hey Hey.

We're back with a lot of nice new gimmicks. Those fantastic new records are available for preorder now:

::: BERSARIN QUARTETT - II Cd | 2xLP | DIGITAL

"References to Stars Of The Lid, Ulver's Perdition City, Bohren & Der Club Of Gore and Cinematic Orchestra are fully justified."

::: THE SAMUEL JACKSON 5 - s/t Cd | LP | DIGITAL

"A crazy mixture for fans of Jaga Jazzist, Arcade Fire or maybe Yes."

::: THE SAMUEL JACKSON 5 - Easily Misunderstood 2xLP | DIGITAL

The milestone of the band for the first time available on vinyl.

::: AUN - Full Circle 10'' | DIGITAL

'Full Circle' is again a different sonic adventure, but still unmistakably AUN stamped.

You can find more detailed descriptions of the releases, information concerning the vinyl colors, pictures and everything else further below in the newsletter. You can preorder your cd and lp via www.denovali.com/mailorder or you can directly download the records over here: www.denovali.com/mp3shop

Beyond ACHIM MOHNÉ (GER) the wonderful legend PHILIP JECK (UK) will present his compositions created with record players and samples. Additionally the Touch owner MIKE HARDING[/b] will showcase a lecture and will interview Philip Jeck. More news soonish.

MAILORDER UPDATE: The latest mailorder additions for example include the new album of Julia Holter, The Jim Jarmusch and Josef van Wissem Collaboration, the new Black Mountain, a couple of Einstürzende Neubauten restocks, the new Black Breath etc etc.

BERSARIN QUARTETT - II Cd | 2xLP | MP3

Finally the 2nd full length of one of the most talented ambient / electronic artists of today. "It's rare that I'm able to give an album my fullest recommendation without trepidation. (...) Bersarin Quartett is one such album. There's nary a misstep, every potential danger has been avoided and smoothed out to present the optimal audio experience for your dollar. (...) Something this good can't possibly be real." The Silent Ballet (8.5/ 10) Almost all reviews concerning Bersarin Quartett's self titled debut album chorused this paean. Four years later he's back with his long awaited 2nd album called "II". After turning Bersarin Quartett with 2 befriended guest musicians into a band project in 2011 and some successful and interesting live experiences in several countries it was time to bring the fragments of songwriting of the past years together to a new 13 tracks journey. Someone mentioned 4 years ago "This music could be written on a lonely island or onboard of a spaceship looking on our planet. Time becomes a new unit and feelings become more weight." That's exactly the feeling Bersarin Quartett still conveys in 2012. References to Stars Of The Lid, Ulver's Perdition City, Bohren & Der Club Of Gore and Cinematic Orchestra are fully justified.

THE SAMUEL JACKSON 5 - s/t Cd | LP | MP3

The long awaited fourth album by THE SAMUEL JACKSON FIVE from Norway. Having set a high standard with all previous efforts, the new album shows the band from quite a different side. Let's skip to the main new addition right away: Yes, the album has vocals! Truls Heggero (of Lukestar fame) and Pål Angelskår (Minor Majority) - both Norwegian Grammy winners - contribute on one song each on the record, the same does Thomas Bratlie from post-hardcore rockers Rumble in Rhodos, on the aptly titled "Electric Crayons". New addition to the band, Jonny "the Captain" Knutsen also does vocal chores, while the recording process has been carefully overlooked by multi-instrumentalist Thomas Meidell. While SJ5's last effort, "Goodbye Melody Mountain" (2008) was recorded in the wilderness, the brand new album was put together in the middle of Oslo, and includes urban soundtracks like "Москва́ (Moscow)" (written in the Russian capitol and features noise from Berlin at night). The band further tries to distance themselves from their post-rock roots, delivering a thoughtfully arranged set of songs - only two of them clocking in at over 5 minutes. There are more traces of JAGA JAZZIST, ARCADE FIRE, YES or even English folk, than Mogwai or GYBE!. There are even influences of the proud Scandinavian piano jazz tradition of JAN JOHANSSON or ESBJÖRN SVENSSON. The 40+ minutes will definitely give these Norwegians a bunch of new followers, while challenging the devoted fan base.

THE SAMUEL JACKSON 5 - Easily Misunderstood Cd | 2xLP | MP3

After previously just being part of a sold out limited Vinyl Collection Box the 2005 classic output "Easily Misunderstood" of the SAMUEL JACKSON 5 now (just in time for the new album "They should Have Kept Their Mouth Shut") sees the light of day again on vinyl. "It took a few listens to really learn to enjoy the music of the samuel jackson five. I certainly wouldn't label it immediately accessible. It's too sophisticated, too subtle, too smart for that. But give it the time and attention it deserves, and I guarantee that you will reap the rewards. For one of the few bands that doesn't throw their toys out of the pram when labelled aspost rock, The Samuel Jackson Five are changing the way people hear and look at the genre, and not just their last record Goodbye Melody Mountain is enough evidence for me to elect them as the band to lead the genre forward." For all fans of jazzy, instrumental postrock tunes.

AUN - FULL CIRCLE 10'' | MP3

The new follow up EP of AUN's 2011 masterpiece album Phantom Ghost. The title and track names of this new AUN three track EP, contain some clues as to the frame of mind, and maybe some hints of the influences of its creators. As fans have now come to expect, 'Full Circle' is again a different sonic adventure, but still unmistakably AUN stamped. On the A side we find the fittingly titled 'Return to Jupiter Jazz, a Dumais solo piece, while the B side is a more joint affair, with the slow melancholic guitar and keyboard interplay of 'Floodland' and a first track featuring AUN in trio formation, with Frédéric Arbour adding some synth and guitar work to the lush and sprawling 'Family Man', a track which also finds some subtle lead guitar work by family friend Eric Quach of THISQUIETARMY fame.

I really love your new artist pages, Timo. The layout is definitely more user friendly. Hopefully I'll be buying a few things soon.

[smailtronic]

Anybody up for another Denovali group order? Refresher for the new folks: shipping (to the US) for more than two records from these guys gets expensive quick. For example, if you order both SJ5 releases, shipping is $21. But, if a bunch of people pool their orders, the per-person shipping price goes down.

I've organized two of these before, and am ready to do another. PM me or post here if you're interested. General rule of thumb is that if you just want a single LP or 2xLP, it's cheaper to order it yourself. But if you want more than 2 records, it's cheaper to get in with a group.

Jepp. Definitely. We'll change the other ones as well soon. Thanks.

That's cool. It usually takes a week or two to get everybody in, and the order ready, any way. Just let me know what you're interested in, and we'll follow up with pricing later.

[batman]

i'd be down for SJ5 and bersarin

[davepriz]

i would be in for a group buy

[bluedeni]

I am down for another group buy

[snarfsnarf]

coughUSdistributorcough

[denovalirecords]

a group buy definitely always saves a good amount of shipping money.

we're still working on the US / canada distribution deal - we're almost ready - maybe from may / june on. thanks a lot.

[smailtronic]

We already have five folks in on a group/bulk buy, so it's definitely happening. PM me if you're interested in getting in on it.

why not experimedia?

Im usually only after the fancy pants versions, so unless a US distro is carrying those, not a big deal to me.

we're still working with experimedia directly. but we're currently working on a way wider solution - to have the chance to equip a lot of local record stores as well.

thanks again guys.

[robotnetwork]

New Bersarin Quartet sounds off-the-hook good.

Think i might grab this and the SJ5 - EM.

[smailtronic]

Bump/reminder. We're placing a group/bulk order at the end of the week. If you want to be a part of it, PM me your order no later than Thursday. Thanks!

[denovalirecords]

since we're having a lot of loyal supporters over here maybe worth to mention: the easily misunderstood colored version is down to 50 copies. since the limited pressings of the other new s/t sj5 and the bersarin were higher still enough left of those. thanks a lot!

Thanks Timo. I've been checking stock on that one every couple days, and we'll be ordering a couple copies before it gets too low.

[smailtronic]

Last chance for the group order. Get at me by tomorrow, or we order without ye.

[withengineheart]

got mine today! pick up this beauty.

great job guys!
