Entrance Theme

Junkyard Shaman - Watching The Glaciers Melt In Slow Motion

from 'Parole de Navarre' [CD|2xLP|DIGITAL] Reissue
Denovali Records · den060
available on all formats at [http://denovali.com/dalecooper]

AFTER 4 YEARS FINALLY REPRESSED - COMES WITH A NEW CD & LP ARTWORK. Formed for the improvisation nights Dynamo in Brest, France, this quartet made of musicians covering a wide variety of musical styles creates a sound that mixes electronic (samples, cuts, sound treatments) and acoustic elements (guitars, saxophone, trumpet). They’re playing moody ballads that sound as if they would come out from one of David Lynch's movies. Like in the films of Hollywood’s master of bizarre pieces, there is something like a dark and poisonous colour broken by red thunderlights and blue cigarette smoke. The music spawnes some odd characters and landscapes while the listener makes out some more friendly faces that loom up out of this nowhere place: the voice of Zalie Bellaccico, Milanese streets sounds, a lazy flute, or some distant breathing swim on the surface of this deep troubled waters. "Paroles de Navarre" is an invitation for opening the red curtain of this Dark Jazz cabaret made of shimmering and whirling walls. One of the best musical outputs from France of the last ten years and already a classic.

Here and Gone

Wordclock hunts for the myths of old European sacred sites. 

Pedro's trail led him on a long journey through Porto, London and Berlin to record acoustic instruments and field recordings within the cities. 

During months of work in the studio more people joined. 

Amund Ulvestad on Cello and Electronics, who previously helped out on Wordclock's second album Self Destruction Themes. 

Nuno Craveiro on Scandinavian instrument Nyckelharpa. 

George Shmanauri on Trumpet, from dark atonal jazz duo Phonothek. 

The resulting album Heralds breaks the fringe of the genre and re-assembles the pieces. It reveals itself as a dreamlike, spiritual and nihilistic album. Classical instruments float on a backdrop of tape loops and organic sound. Sacrificial and Touching. 

Recommended for fans of Dark Jazz and Neoclassical.

from 'Collection' [3xCD|4xLP BOX|DIGITAL]

available on all formats at http://denovali.com/dictaphone

The first 4 Dictaphone releases now available as a very limited Boxset with a wonderful new timeless design. The vinyl edition is also available as limited single LPs.

Already formed in the late nineties in Berlin, Dictaphone was born by Brussels-bred multi-instrumentalist Oliver Doerell. In 2000 Oliver Doerell found a partner in Berlin's Roger Döring, who shares Doerell's love for the Brussels-based music of the eighties. In the following years the duo and several guest musicians (e.g. Stephan Wöhrmann (SWOD) , Malka Spigel (Minimal Compact) & more) released the critically highly acclaimed "m.= addiction" (2002), the "Nacht" EP (2004) and "Vertigo II" (2006) via the City Centres Offices label of Thaddeus Herrmann and Shlom Sviri (Boomkat, Modern Love). In 2009 the violin player Alex Stolze joined the band. During their two decades of existence Dictaphone played shows in more than 20 countries with festival appearances at Mutek, Transmediale, Unsound, Benicassim & more. Their latest release "Poems from a rooftop" from 2012 came as a very limited edition through the Berlin-based boutique label Sonic Pieces. In 2017 the band released the long awaited third album "APR 70" on denovali. The label now also offers a reissue of the trio's past repertoire.

Dictaphone never make music for the sake of it, they always want to create something which was missing before. And they did.

Praise for Dictaphone:

"minimalistic and subliminal elegancy" (ARTE)

"timeless, unusual & beautiful" (Colin Newman)

"Dictaphones gives warmth to the concept, your thoughts a body and atmosphere to the music" (Spex)

"This is the music to fall in love with over many evenings, each subsequent rotation capturing another moment of time to be recalled in the future. Highly recommended" (Headphone Commute)

"When played from a rooftop, this music may be as quiet as a poem, but it carries the power of a manifesto." (A Closer Listen)

Poems From a Rooftop

Dictaphone - The Conversation

Teleology

Being Human Being

Origin of the World

This compilation is devoted exclusively to the night atmosphere, the dark side of jazz, music that goes beyond the rules, that is fatal, that is doomed. 
Expand your consciousness, relax and enjoy.

The Dale Cooper Quartet - Une Cellier

«Relax and listen to sounds of a distant and dreamy place, place which consists of the vibrations of our souls. Blend of dark ambient, jazz and down-tempo music, with a taste of mystery.»

Far Drifters

The  Orchestra Of Mirrored Reflections - Le Noir Primavera

My recreation of "Prowler" by Bohren & Der Club of Gore from their 2000 album Sunset Mission.

Une Cellier (Live)

"This album perfectly captures the multitude of feelings be it in dreams, hallucinations, passion, paranoia ,darkness, screams, smiles or glamour no matter what it may be, it remains in some way a forgotten and empty place where you the listener can find, or not, find yourself."

Someone Sang And Slowly Danced

from 'Here Be Dragons' [CD|2LP|DIGITAL]
Denovali Records · den260
available on all formats at http://denovali.com/kilimanjarodarkjazz

2020 Reissue of "Here Be Dragons" - the second album of The Kilimanjaro Darkjazz Ensemble from 2009. Not existing anymore since 2012 The Kilimanjaro Darkjazz Ensemble & The Mount Fuji Doomjazz Corporation now finally make all long-time sold out releases available again on all formats (cd | vinyl | digital).

- "Here Be Dragons is a timeless piece of music. Composed and created with total musical freedom, unrestrained by any genres or artistic restrictions, resulting in what is definitely, in my opinion, TKDE's best release." (Jason Kohnen /  TKDE / TMFDC / Mansur)

- "Here Be Dragons strikingly original. The instrumentation is constrained and subtle, and it works wonders by enveloping rather than overwhelming the listener; this is shadowy music for dark days and grey nights." (Sputnik Music)

- "Here Be Dragons is an intelligent and nuanced record, full of swells and sighs, utterly epic yet incalculably subtle, existing somewhere between keen, intuitive live improvisation and the best-laid plans of mad scientists. Experimental music is rarely this consistently captivating."  (Pop Matters)

- "Here Be Dragons offers a fantastic, weirdly frightening yet exotic journey through the Middle East that lightens up over the course of the album: the second half is by no means jolly, let alone gleeful, but illumines the timbre to include layers of wondrousness, hope and contentment." (Ambient Exotica)
