Offered as metaphor and delivered as analogy...

The Blizzard That Birthed Her is the continuing echo of this year’s Home Normal success, Book Of The Folded Forest. Birthed as two original Orla Wren tracks ‘Five Acre Ladder’ and ‘Mountains And Wishbones’ which were recorded in the same session, Tui then worked the cello, bass and vocals of Aaron Martin into two alternative versions of each track, making up the 4 tracks on the 10” vinyl for Facture.

He then offered the same to Isnaj Dui who contributed some flute for him to then create the two versions with her as guest. To complete the companion 8 track letter pressed CD version the two "reprise" versions were created by Tui utilizing parts from the other tracks.

Mastered precisely by James Plotkin, the project is released as a limited edition run of 300 copies designed by Daniel Crossley; 4 track 10” vinyl on reverse board heavy card with printed inner sleeves with designs by Montreal designer Urban9, download code, 8 track 4-panel letter pressed CDs with wrap-around letter pressed bands, 4 prints resting inside typed/numbered glassine photo bags, 2 x double sided large prints, pressed flowers, all resting inside large tagged/scented letter pressed envelopes with beautiful artwork again by Urban9.

To accompany the album an exclusive promo film was made for the track Five Acre Ladder (re-prise) by Lumacell. And a very special exclusive bonus track The Cup Of Remembered Things is also included as a free download.

A returned honour of growth and loss, this album complements her predecessor as an expressive companion piece requiring little explanation.

Mountains And Wishbones (Orla Wren with Aaron Martin)

SoulAvenue Feat Shaheen Sheik - Lullaby For Samiyah (Buddha Bar XV)

We are delighted to welcome Alexander Gessner to the ad21 family! His first piano piece released under our label is a delicate fusion of quiet sweetness and romantic nostalgia, a neoclassical gem that invites listeners on a heartfelt and timeless journey.

Based in the mystic woods of the Eifel, Alexander is a German multi-instrumentalist and composer whose music radiates warmth, nature, and deep emotional storytelling. At the piano, he finds a world beyond duality, where melodies become stories and emotions come to life.

With nearly two decades of musical experience spanning multiple genres, his artistry reflects a rich tapestry of influences, from classical to rock. This new release under ad21 is a testament to his passion, talent, and dedication. Listen now and let yourself be carried away!

For All That I Am

Resonance of Light by Jermaine Germaine is an exclusive collection of solo classical guitar works — no accompaniment, no distraction, just the intimate voice of nylon strings. Across ten original compositions, the album explores the contrasts of brilliance and shadow: delicate tremolo studies (Moonlit Courtyard), counterpoint fugues (Fugue in Six Strings), Andalusian sketches (Granada Sketches), and meditative nocturnes (Nocturne for the Last String).

Every piece is written to let the guitar’s natural resonance linger, with sudden silences, flowing arpeggios, and luminous harmonics. The result is both timeless and personal: an album where light glimmers through wood and string, evoking reflection, solitude, and quiet beauty.

✨ For fans of: Andrés Segovia, John Williams, Heitor Villa-Lobos
🎸 Signature sound: nylon-string exclusivity, pure solo resonance

It's taking a while in the making (since my hard drive died and I lost all new music files) but here is one of the tracks from my new album, 'Star-filled Skies' featuring the very talented Chris Philpotts aka Kibeja on English Horn and Oboe. More soon!
