    Orally Challenged, Hörbuch, Digital, 41min, (USK 18)
    This pretty, petite firecracker is known for her infectious laugh, her brash style of humor, and for fearlessly addressing topics that most female comics tend to avoid. Jen Murphy fully embraces her gender's overall insanity, and finds the funny in her traditionally male dominated, X-rated subject matter. Stand-up comedy was not Jen Murphy's first choice for a career. After graduating high school, she attended The American Academy of Dramatic Arts in Pasadena, CA, and at 21 made the trek to New York City, determined to become a dramatic Broadway actress. Jen spent years waitressing and performing in off, off Broadway stage productions, all the while ignoring countless acting teachers who couldn't help but laugh every time she tried to be dramatic. Eventually, no longer able to ignore the laughter, she gave up on drama and heeded their advice. She began honing her comedic chops with Second City Improv. While there, she formed an improv and sketch comedy group with her classmates, and began performing all over NYC. It wasn't long before she went one step further and ventured onto the stand-up comedy stage. After 13 years as a waitress, Jen permanently traded in her apron for a microphone. Now she travels the world bringing her snort-inducing giggles to the masses. Jen is at home on stage, and has headlined in clubs throughout Las Vegas and Southern California. This sharp-witted comic has also been seen on ABC's Comics Unleashed w/Byron Allen, Last Comic Standing on NBC, her own half hour special on TLC called This Is Why You're Still Single, Laughs TV on FOX, and the comedic film Dumbbells, released in January 2014. Jen has also had the honor of performing overseas for our troops in Afghanistan, Egypt, Jordan, Kuwait, and Greece with Armed Forces Entertainment. Orally Challenged is Jen Murphy's second stand-up comedy album. Her first recording size DOES matter, also on Uproar Comedy, is still played in Language: English. Narrator: Jen Murphy.

    Goodfellas , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 639min
    Headlined by New York Times best-seller Carl Weber, three authors bring listeners tales of power, greed, and ambition set in some of the country's roughest neighborhoods. "Sibling Rivalry" by Carl Weber: They say the parent's sins always fall into the children's laps. Twins Kayden and Jayden Vincent have walked in their father's kingpin shadow as two princes fighting for the same throne since they were children. Now, finally at the age where the transition is inevitable, it seems as if the twins are going head-to-head when it comes to everything around them. What they don't know is that the crown they are fighting for comes with its own burdens - like a past the kingpin forgot to tell them about. It's a past that, if not dealt with, will leave both men without an empire to inherit. "Love Seldom, Trust Never" by Ty Marshall: While attending his estranged father's funeral, East is approached by the legendary Ricardo Wheeler, who offers him the opportunity of a lifetime. Wheeler takes the young man under his wing, but when Wheeler's son and heir-in-waiting becomes jealous, his excessive ambition and quest for power lead to betrayal. A treacherous war is set in motion that will force the powerful legend to choose between his two sons. Anything built on a lie will eventually crumble. When no one and nothing are what they seem, who can you trust? "The Bag Is In" by Marlon P.S. White: Slow grinding for years, Greedy and GiGi are ready to step up their game, with a thirst to be Detroit's king and queen of the trap. The struggle is real, but the payoff will be major. After cashing out their middleman up front, the couple's hood dream tragically turns into a nightmare. The middleman is popped, and the infamous Mexican pipeline is broken. Greedy and GiGi devise a seemingly flawless plan to not only recoup their invested cash, but to link up with one of the most notorious cartels across the border. What seems like sunshine quickly turns to ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Dylan Ford. Audio sample: https://samples.audible.de/bk/reco/012249/bk_reco_012249_sample.mp3.

    Everything Dies
    (LP) Die UK Emo-Punks um Em Foster beschäftigt sich mit Gender Dysphoria und ist im März mit Milk Teeth auf Tour.When Em Foster, songwriter-in-chief for Watford-based rock band Nervus, began to write songs in her bedroom, she did so purely as a means of personal catharsis, a way to exorcise her demons through rapturous melodies. Following up on the critically acclaimed debut 'Permanant Rainbow', Everything Dies deals with exterior forces and how they play on the mind of someone dealing with gender dysphoria. Like all great sophomore albums, it expands the bands horizons without compromising on their original ideals. Far more direct than its predecessor, with a confrontational edge, Em s vulnerability turns to anger at a 21st century society still unwilling to accept that gender isn't simply defined within two restrictive parameters. In June 2017, Nervus co-headlined an 10-date DIY UK tour with Riot Grrrl fuzz rock duo Kamikaze Girls as well as garnering much coveted slots at Manchester Punk Festival and Brighton's Washed Out Festival. Most impressive of all, in October 2017, Nervus played their first show overseas at Fest in Gainesville Florida. The show was so packed, some punters were refused entry due to the venue being filled to capacity. They've also been handpicked as one of the bands to support Southampton horror-punks Creeper during their 'The Theatre of Fear' tour, which includes a date at the prestigious 2000-capacity Shepherd's Bush Empire. TRACKS: 1. Congratulations 2. Nobody Loses 3. Sick Sad World 4. Recycled Air 5. It Follows 6. Skin 7. Medicine 8. The Way Back 9. Hold Tight 10. Fall Apart

    Wishes & Dreams
    The CD The Wishes and Dreams CD by Retro-Blue features vocalist Kelly Delaveris in many different styles of music - all with a jazz flavor. Writer / Producer Don Nichols says: 'People tell me this album is very easy to listen to - that it's great music to play at cocktail parties or for romantic dinners - great background music. There was a time when I would not have considered that a compliment. Now I'm quite proud to have been a part of creating a 'very good easy listening' album.' The first track of Wishes and Dreams, 'Mary's Mambo', is a high energy Latin number. Kelly and guitarist Dean Inboden cover the melody and Chris Young and Michael Cox provide pulsating improvisations on piano and sax. Kelly weds her own personal feelings in the next track, 'Sarah's Eyes', that also features Michael on sax. Other popular songs on this CD include the title track 'Wishes and Dreams' - an up tempo jazz waltz that features Kelly along with vocalist Charlie Cesner, "Blue Saturday" - a standard blues tune reminiscent of Miles Davis featuring Tom Battenberg on trumpet, and 'Here We Go Again' - a jazz rock ballad that Kelly really brings home. The album also features solos by Jim Curlis on drums, Andy Woodson's bass, Tom Battenberg on trumpet, Chris Young's flugelhorn, Don Nichols on vibes, Dean Inboden on guitar, and Terry Douds also on bass. Recorded at Lake Hill Sound recording studio, 'Wishes and Dreams' was mastered at Magic Garden Mastering and produced by Project One Productions. The Band RETRO-BLUE is a collection of experienced central Ohio jazz vocalists and musicians. The list of their credits is extensive. As individual players they have headlined with such star performers as Sarah Vaughn, Tony Bennet, Bob Hope, Tom Scott, Joe Williams, Sonny Stitt, and the Brecker Bothers, and played with local orchestras including the Columbus Symphony Orchestra and Columbus Jazz Orchestra. Don Nichols and Jim Curlis brought together this unique collection of talent specifically for the recording 'Wishes and Dreams.' However, this ensemble of professionals took on a life of it's own and the band is now currently performing in locations in the midwest to the delight of everyone that enjoys "smooth" jazz with a twist.

    Sound of One
    Andy Garbi Debut solo album: the sound of one Label: Adventures in Sound Catalogue: AIS CD1001 "Inspirational...Garbi's extraordinary, multi-octave vocal range dazzles" Metro "Melodies turn into natural phenomena, into a foggy morning or a swelling ocean. Yet they are all pervaded by a glowing grace, a sublime beauty and dignity" Zillo Magazine "This is a remarkable album...It moves with much deeply felt sensitivity and beauty: with echoes of Samuel Barber's famous Adagio and Debussy's Des Pas sur la Neige plus Brian Eno's old school ambient" Newmusicreviews. Co.UK "Superb music" Musician Magazine "Beautiful" Hans Joachim Roedelius A deeply moving experience from the multi-award winning vocalist and composer, this haunting music embodies Garbi's experiences of extreme emotional and geographical environments. Featuring Andy's distinctive voice that spans almost four octaves and former Jazz Musician of the Year James Hesford on Cello, Violin and Viola, the sound of one is a Neo-classical work, reminiscent of the "holy minimalism" of Arvo Pärt, John Tavener and Henryk Górecki and also the crafted ambience of EG, 4AD and ECM labels. Recently featured on Radio 3's Late Junction, Classic FM's 'The Chill', '21st Century Classics' and The Chiller Cabinet playlist, Andy's dark, emotive style has been selected twice already to represent the UK for music internationally - gaining letters of commendation from the Royal Netherlands Embassy and the Arts Council of England. * WINNER * - PRS Foundation For New Music ATOM Award - (Advances Toward Original Music) - Channel 4 Ideasfactory Film Music Award - (selected by oscar winning film composer Stephen Warbeck) - Birmingham Conservatoire Masters Prize - About Andy Garbi Once Upon a Time... there was a zonally deaf boy whose ears bled. Doctors tried to convince his mother that he could not hear at all but she knew different. He was just prone to being lost in his own head - that still happens but that was then and this is now. Strange that he should choose music to fill his life - here's how it all came about... Voice Andy is no stranger to experimenting with voice. A sparsely equipped sound studio at Art College was the catalyst for him to start producing soundscapes for his films using nothing more than what he could create vocally. In the studio there was no equipment available that could produce anything remotely akin to what he wanted so instead he sang into samplers and used chants and breath to create percussion and texture. He developed these techniques whilst fronting bands and sang whatever came naturally to him. This included using unorthodox techniques and scales which enhanced this 'other-worldly' feel. Although he had no previous exposure to vocal techniques of different cultures the press started to compare him to singers such as Natasha Atlas and Lisa Gerrard. Keen to know more Andy sought out Invaders of the Heart and the 4AD label and also began to look at Bulgarian music, Hindustani classical, Mongolian throat singing and Arabic muezzine styles finding something of what he already did in all of them. This sparked off a journey to India in 2000 to explore this inherent quality in his voice. Andy spent time in Calcutta with vocal master Santanu Bandyopadhyay and even joined a band in the Himalayas comprising Tibetan and Ghurkha musicians (click here for more info). Andy's voice has been mapped out at spanning almost four octaves and not being trained in any particular genre has allowed him to experiment and develop his own idiosyncratic style. Sometimes he uses lyrics, at other times he uses phonetics, even singing invented words. Occasionally lyrics just seem to get in the way - this is when he prefers to create pure sounds because they seem somehow more raw, more direct than words. Andy has sung with the following artists/bands: Nigel Kennedy Live performances Cellorhythmics Starcatcher (Rise of the Cellorettes), Live Performances Suns of Arqa Live Tours Headhunters Lead Vocalist/Co-founder Celtarabia Lead Vocalist / Live Tours Celluloid Backing Vocalist ACE Dance & Music Vocalist/Composer Music Andy's musical world is a retinal image of film, fairy tale and cult children's TV. As well as using his voice Andy loves to use found sounds that he records binaurally in different locations from the clamour of industrial sites to the eerie stillness of remote areas of the world. He manipulates these in the studio and uses them as another instrument alongside classical and traditional instruments from several cultures together with music technology. His dark emotive style has been featured on Classic FM's Chiller Cabinet and Late Night Lisa, also garnering acclaim from the spheres of stage, screen and dance. Although he is currently exploring the ambient neo-classical world, his background in World Dance, Urban Fusion and his own Anglo-Asian heritage means that he is always seeking out new territory. It is this passion that has gained the support of leading artists in all fields of the performing arts. In just five years he has worked with the violin virtuoso Kennedy, award-winning playwright Chris O'Connell, and Birmingham Royal Ballet. He has also made headline appearances at festivals across Europe. Andy has always felt privileged to perform. As co-founder of the group Headhunters he has headlined one of the largest stages at Glastonbury Festival as well as European festivals such as Terschelling's Oerol in the Netherlands. With Headhunters, Suns of Arqa and Celtarabia he has performed at festivals such as The Big Chill and Trans Musicale in France on the same bill as The Prodigy, Jah Wobble, Roni Size, Loop Guru, Trans Global Underground, Banco de Gaia, System 7, Square Pusher, Mix Master Morris, Peat Bog Fairies, Baka Beyond, Kangaroo Moon and Roy Harper. Through his successes of working internationally with music from different cultures Andy was offered a prestigious invitation in 2003 to represent the UK for music. The commission was from a groundbreaking Anglo/Dutch performing Arts initiative and the resulting composition/performance earned him a commendation from both the Royal Netherlands Embassy and the Arts Council of England (click here for more information). Also in 2003 and despite having no formal training in music Andy was invited to study for a Masters degree in composition at Birmingham Conservatoire. He graduated with distinction in 2005 and was also awarded the Conservatoire Masters Prize. In the same twelve-month period Andy also won two other awards for composition from Channel 4 and the PRS Foundation (click here for more information). As well as his solo work Andy has always welcomed the opportunity to collaborate with other artists which has brought his style to an increasingly diverse audience. He sang at the BAC Burst festival (May '05) with physical Theatre group Gecko and progressive band Cellorhythmics and has most recently sung with guests from the City of Birmingham Symphony Orchestra. Several new projects will see Andy working with Japanese Taiko Drumming, experimental theatre and a new Suns of Arqa album (see news page for up and coming collaborations).

    Evolution Into the Conscious Revolution
    It is torch...the taste of bittersweet. That sassy, smoky blues which compliments Lesa's original sound and unique phrasing. Combine her sultry looks and undeniable sensuality, and she embodies the purity of a young woman who people have described as 'haunting' and 'mesmerizing.' Whether she's accompanied by piano, a standard quartet, or her band (Lesa Carlson's OFF BLUE, with upright bass, flute or sax, drums, and a turtablist), her throughline is jazz, with a heavy blues influence, and just a dash of slow funk to make the body move. Lesa brings a new perspective to a range of music, from standards like 'Summertime,' 'Night and Day,' and 'God Bless the Child,' to old Robert Johnson tunes, such as 'Come on in My Kitchen,' through originals like 'Mystery,' 'Lazy Days,' and 'Love's Voodoo Band.' 'Lesa is someone you can't help but be drawn to...' -Vera Anderson, Cinepremiere Magazine As an ingenue, Lesa is just starting on her journey, but there is an obvious wealth of knowledge that she draws from that comes out in her vocal delivery. Some of Lesa's vocal accomplishments include: * Studied and performed Opera for three years * Performed Jazz in Turkey for one year * Performed with members of the Turkey National Symphony * Won vocal awards in New York City and Los Angeles * Performed original song for 'Arranged Marriage,' a feature film * Headlined Mid-West Jazz Tour * Crowned America's Miss Idaho * Performed with Blues legend Linda Hopkins Most Recently: Lesa has been the house band at Three of Clubs, in Hollywood, CA, and performed at Woody Harrelson's new restaurant, O2, in Los Angeles, CA. She also performed for the premiere party of Steve Martin and Eddie Murphy's feature film, Bowfinger, an Imagine Entertainment/Universal Pictures production. She has also performed at The House of Blues, and at a special concert at the Hotel Niko for the LA art scene. Currently Lesa has a monthly residency with her jazz ensemble, OFF BLUE, at the Knitting Factory in Hollywood, CA. ---------------- Lesa Carlson Off Blue, Evolution into the Conscious Revolution (Strange Fruit) If you're gonna do a fully improvised jazz album, you'd better have one hell of a rhythm section or it's all gonna fall apart faster than a house of cards in a wind tunnel. Fortunately for Lesa Carlson, she does. Bassist Miles Mosley and drummer Robert Perkins jam almost telepathically throughout Evolution into the Conscious Revolution, anchoring down a record that easily could have lapsed into self-indulgent, abstract noodling, but instead bristles with hypnotic grooves and jazzy incantations that recall the post-psychedelic experiments of Sun Ra and Miles Davis. Carlson belts over this like the love child of Jim Morrison and Grace Slick, a chanteuse-turned-shaman, twisting familiar standards like 'Brother Can You Spare a Dime' into weird, beat-poet meditations and crooning hypnotic originals like 'Lessons of the Leaves' like she's summoning up some old pagan earth god for a little jam session. Add some wacky turntablist effects featuring Martin Luther King samples, a trumpet, and a flute, and you've got an album that sounds like nothing else out there. As you'd expect of an album recorded 'unrehearsed in one take with no charts or nets', not all of it works -- slow jams like 'Evolution' and 'Serenade the Sea' lurch along in search of a groove, and Carlson's vocals sometimes lurch a little too far into Morrison's bad poetry intonations for comfort -- but a surprising amount of this material is really in the pocket. Especially good are 'Nature Boy' and 'Your Face', on which Mosley and Perkins lock into taut rhythms that give Carlson and trumpeter Bryan Lipps something sweet on which to hang their expressive interplay.

    Evolve or Die
    Los Angeles-based chanteuse Tawny Ellis: nomadic by design, an angelic and kick-ass songstress, inspired by Michelangelo and David Bowie by way of Ernest Hemingway. A potent brew of Patsy Cline, The Pretenders and Neil Young, Ellis has accrued a legion of fans, all seduced by the dynamic live show and that irresistibly gorgeous voice. Born in Savannah, Georgia, the captivating singer-songwriter now divides her time between Los Angeles and New Orleans - a split reflected in her music, which has always blended a blast of west coast freshness with some soulful bayou depth. Ellis's forthcoming album "Evolve or Die", a departure from her last album "Shelter", calls up her Americana roots and even leans a bit country. Ellis's voice is a perfect fit for this sound, and is reminiscent of artists like Pasty Cline and Peggy Lee. It's a pure, pitch-perfect voice that can quiver and twang, soaring to delicate heights, swooping to a rich, guttural fullness: what holds it all together is always Ellis's heart-wrenching presence at the emotional center of the song. Both in live performance and on the album, Ellis works with her long-time writing partner, musical director and multi-instrumentalist, the respected musician's musician and craftsman Giovanni Loria. While Ellis moulds the lyrics and melodies, Loria masterfully pulls everything together, co-writing and producing. Many of their songs have been placed on T.V. and Film soundtracks. This will be their third Independent release. Loria has worked, among others, with Jack Johnson, The Black Eyed Peas and Everlast. The much-anticipated album "Evolve or Die" will be released the Fall of 2008. Ellis will be touring the U.S in August and September and Europe in the Fall. Current News: New Album "Evolve or Die" to be officially released Fall 2008. Currently on tour in the Southern U.S. through mid October. Tawny will be touring California, New Mexico, Texas, Louisiana, Arkansas & Tennessee. Current Singles: "Baby You're the One", "Evolve or Die" and "Endless Black Ribbon". "Evolve or Die" has been added to several radio play lists already in it's pre release status in Texas, Arkansas and several stations in France, the UK, Germany and Belgium. Tawny will be performing a few select dates in Europe in the Fall of 2008. Locations include: France and Belgium. Extensive touring is being planned in support of the "Evolve or Die" album in America and Europe for spring and summer of 2009. The title track "Evolve or Die" has been placed in a new film entitled "A Woman In The West" which reunites the main cast of HBO's classic series "Deadwood". The song is not only used over the end credit sequence, but was also re arranged and re recorded as original theme music throughout the film. Much of Ellis' music has been place in Film and T.V. Tawny has performed at some of L.A.'s best venues including the Hotel Café, The Viper Room, House of Blues, and The Mint. Tawny has also played various events and festivals including: Sunset Junction with Ben Harper & Autolux (average crowd of approx. 25k people), The Downtown L.A. Detour Fest with Beck and Queens of the Stone Age,(30k people Annual event). Tawny headlined the Labor Union's "Hollywood to the Docks", a rally for fair wages, in 2008 to a crowd of nearly 10,000 people.

    Broken Glass
    Starting out in 2001 as the brainchild of front man Scott Lathwood, Ordain moved to Melbourne, Australia, where Aussies Matt Olthof and Andy Esposito joined up. Since that time, rock band Ordain has been feeding ideas and emotions into quality songs designed to excite, sadden and give hope to a broad listening audience, saluting the musical legends that once traveled a similar journey. With a unique brand of progressive rock, Ordain's music displays their passion for creativity and high standard of musicianship. The band strives for optimal musical originality while injecting a raw passion and powerful dynamic range into their songs. Ordain enjoyed success in their home base of Australia, where they placed three top five songs in the Australian JJJ Unearthed competition songs. During this time Ordain was invited to play in front of crowds in excess of 25,000 at the New Zealand Parachute Rock Festival. Now based in Toronto, Ontario, Canada, Ordain has begun to make their mark on North America. The band has recently completed it's third U.S. tour, which included appearances on Good Day Austin in Austin, TX, WGN 9 in Chicago, IL, and KLTD 101.7 The Eagle in Temple, TX. The band also headlined rock night at the 5th Annual Bloomin' Temple Festival, which has resulted in a significant increase in the band's fan base in that area. From generating airplay to playing some great gigs, Ordain has made it's presence known to North America. Partnering with Big Noise, an independent A&R firm that works with several noted artists, including Christina Aguilera, Katharine McPhee, Chicago, and the Red Hot Chili Peppers, Ordain is prepared to take the music industry by storm. Keep your eyes peeled - this band is taking no prisoners! 'Success for any hard rock band is often dependent on how strong of a singer they have, and in this regard Ordain has succeeded. Vocalist Scott Lathwood has a melodic and powerful singing voice that is reminiscent of a number of American hard rock/alternative metal singers. However, while a lot of modern day hard rock acts seem to be going for attitude driven aggressive singing, Ordain's style is a bit more laid back and reminiscent of older, more introspective hard rock that cared more about heartfelt messages and singing from the heart rather than attitude or flashiness. This is great to see in a newer group, and is an element that this band will hopefully stick with'. *Chris Dahlberg- Cosmosgaming 'The lead vocalist offers a voice that is both different and familiar at the same time' Losillë- CFM Music 'Undeniably ballsy throat scrapings of vocalist Scott Lathwood - harking back to the early days of a far more baritone Eddie Vedder, Tread's smouldering frontman gorges himself on the throbbing foundations below and spits the final syllable on par with a youthful James Hetfield'. *Toby McCasker- Metal Forge* 'Ordain have played at FUSE a number of times now however this was the first time in a while they have played a rock set apposed to acoustic and they made us proud, Scott (the front man) has a magnificent voice and Friday night was a fine example of him showing that off' *Blair David- Phonex Records* Lathwood (The singer) commands the stage, endlessly prowling *Neil Webb- Indie Initiative*.
