SLOWLY ROLLING CAMERA include pianist-composer Dave Stapleton, Vocalist Dionne Bennett, drummer Elliot Bennett and producer / sound artist Deri Roberts. Rapidly building up a reputation in alternative, electronica and jazz scenes for their robust grooves, deep emotional contrasts and compelling melodic and rhythmical hooks SLOWLY ROLLING CAMERA (SRC), their album also features some of the most exciting and inspiring jazz musicians on the European scene including bassist Jasper Hoiby, guitarist Chris Montage, saxophonist Mark Lockheart and trumpeter Neil Yates. Drawing upon on a diverse range of influences the result is music that has distinct echoes of the ‘invisible soundtracks’ of UK progressives Cinematic Orchestra, Portishead as well as the polychrome textures of maverick Scandinavian artists Sigur Ros.

NEW RELEASE | ALEXI TUOMARILA Seven Hills
We’re re really happy to announce the release of the new album by Alexi Tuomarila Trio called Seven Hills with Alexi Tuomarila (piano), Mats Eilertsen (bass), Olavi Louhivuori (drums) and guest Andre Fernandes (guitar) on 2 tracks.
‘Seven Hills’ highlights his melodically and rhythmically robust compositions and the trio’s almost telepathic communication. Featuring Norwegian bassist Mats Eilertsen and Finnish drummer Olavi Louhivuori, two of Scandinavia’s most compelling musicians, this music is filled with emotional and melancholy warmth balanced with a rhythmical drive that will compel the listener to engage. Highly recommended.
