Alice Coltrane - Kirtan: Turiya Sings
Released 16th July 2021.
Alice Coltrane is the undeniable godmother of spiritual jazz and an acknowledged influence on everyone from Flying Lotus and Kamasi Washington to Solange and Radiohead.
Kirtan: Turiya Sings features Alice Coltrane at peak spirituality and is presented in this arrangement for the first time in any format. Turyia Sings was originally released in 1982 on cassette as a collection of devotional songs including vocals, organ, strings, and synthesizers available only at Alice’s Sai Anantam Ashram. Kirtan: Turiya Sings features a sparser arrangement of organ and chanting, produced by Ravi Coltrane. This is intentional, devotional music created with the purpose of connecting to a higher power. The pared back arrangements on this new release are enchantingly haunting and encourage the listener to reach a meditative headspace so as to channel connectiveness to a greater spirit.
The perfect introduction to Alice Coltrane for listeners interested in music for mediation and personal wellness.
“Turiya” is short for Alice’s full Sanskrit name Turiyasangitananda. “Kirtan” means “narrating, reciting, telling, describing, of an idea of story”.

Released 7th March 2025. Vinyl released 14th March. SK says: "Blistering debut from the Newcastle act which draws as much from the 70s fusion of Weather Report and Return To Forever as it does from the bass culture influence of contemporary British jazz." Knats is the band’s much anticipated self-titled debut album. It comes on the heels of an incendiary year for the band including supporting Geordie Greep (black midi) and playing as the backing band for R&B legend Eddie Chacon on UK tour...

Released 13th September 2024 SK says: "The British saxophonist widens the lens on her sophomore album as leader, with lush string arrangements offering a distinct, London-flavoured take on the kind of expansive cosmic jazz that Kamasi Washington has embodied on the other side of the pond." Nubya Garcia isn’t an artist you can easily classify. Is it jazz? Sure, the London-born saxophonist, composer and bandleader grew up studying the genre under the noted pianist Nikki Yeoh at Camden Music. Bu...
