@jacob-pavek & @philipdanielpiano of @blommamusic have leant their playful, virtuosic and straight up boss stylings to a rework of @johnhayesmusic & Maxy Dutcher's track 'Arrival'. It's a fun and wild ride from start to finish and it closes out the brand new EP Borealis Reworked.

John Hayes & Maxy Dutcher - Arrival (BLOMMA Rework)

I honestly can’t believe that summer is already over. Well, I know that technically, it ends sometime around September 22nd in the Northern Hemisphere (sorry, Australian friends), but still, today is the end of August, and somehow it feels like the last page in a chapter before we move to the next. This one felt shorter and winter is coming. Night gathers, and now my watch begins. Er… sorry, I got carried away there for a second. It’s not nearly as dark here as in the world of ice and fire, and if need a bit of daylight I can turn to Simeon Walker and his upcoming four-track EP, from which I am happy to share a track with you today, appropriately titled “Gleam”. Elegantly executed on his upright piano (recorded in his living room), this charming transitory piece says all there is to say in its brief lifespan. The EP tastefully moves on into a slightly sentimental space, where Walker intimately shares the sound of his ache perceived in silence. And in the span of all of ten minutes of its time the music’s gone, the way the summer’s gone, and all the sunshine with it. The good news here is that I can hit “repeat”. The release has been mastered by Martyn Heyne and the beautiful album artwork drawn by Gregory Euclide. This collection of pieces is the first instalment in the new series of EPs under the name Imprints, with its initial self-released volume out on October 29th, 2021.

"Imprints offered me the opportunity to return to my first love – the felted, solo piano that means so much to me […] The pieces are shorter than I have often released – quick, fleeting moments in time, yet still, I hope, intimate enough for listeners to imagine listening to me playing them in the context of my front room, where I make most of my music and where I feel most at home." — Simeon Walker

It is an absolute delight to announce @daigohanada's new LP Satori, which we'll release in March of next year. It's hard not to overstate how special Daigo is as a person and musician ; his care and thoughtfulness shine through every interaction and every note chosen on the piano, synth or organ. He's been writing material for Satori over the last couple years and the collection of 13 pieces is an intimate invitation into his world, infused with hopeful melodies and a soulful vulnerability. We'll be telling you lots more about it over the coming months, and you can discover the album track 'Emi' now right here: https://idol.lnk.to/dh-emi

Big thanks to Andrea Diotallevi for the lovely artwork and to Martyn Heyne for the tasteful master. With such great audiovisual collaborators we've prepared beautiful pressings of the LP in vinyl & CD format - which we'll share with you early in the new year!

2nd single from Norwegian pianist and composer Ole-Bjørn Talstad's upcoming record Ferd. This is a delicate and reflective piece entitled Motbakke, but it has a deeper meaning.

"Sometimes life feels like a constant uphill struggle, never reaching the top, always new hills to climb. But that’s how we evolve... This song is an ode to the process/work/struggle/hard-times and a reminder to try and look for the joy and beauty in it."

You can listen to Motbakke on your favorite platform, right here: moderna.lnk.to/motbakke

Sebastian Plano is a composer and cellist from Argentina, currently residing in Berlin. His work for Denovali Records, collaboration with Ben Lukas Boysen for "Everything" game (which subsequently was released as a soundtrack on Erased Tapes) and the most recent solo album, "Verve" on Mercury KX, has captivated fans of cinematic, ambient, and modern classical music. For this premiere, Plano reworks a track by Tom Adams from his 2019 release, Particles, on Moderna Records, a gentle yet confident, complex yet playful, nostalgic yet hopeful, and brief yet memorable sonic piece.
