Airlock - Drystar


Airlock is a Belgium based Trip-hop musical group formed November 1997 notable for their ambient music on several popular TV series. The band members were Renaud Charlier, Ernst W. Meinrath and Pierre Mussche.

In 1998, Musicom, began crafting tracks of cool electronic ambience mixed with orchestral hip-hop, as soundtracks for adverts and underground films. Scottish born Esra Tasasiz joined Musicom and the four decided to work together on recording a short piece of music. It was during these sessions that it soon became obvious that their creative output worked outside the confines of cinematography and Airlock were formed. 

The production of the first album ‘Drystar’ stretched over a period of two-and-a-half-years.

The Stance Brothers - Kind Soul


The Stance Brothers represent raw garage jazz in its purest form. The band was formed by the Stance brothers Isiah and Dwayne. After enlisting their friend, a virtuoso drummer by the name of Byron Breaks, the line up was complete. The core of The Stance Brothers' sound stems from countless of hours spent jamming at their dusty garage. The trio's unfaultering will to excel in playing funk-influenced garage jazz comes second only to their passion for shooting hoops at the nearby basketball court.


Placebo - Battle for the Sun


Battle for the Sun is the sixth studio album by the alternative rock band Placebo.
the band utilize new instruments, such as trumpets and saxophones. Molko even experimented with the Springtime and It is also the first album with the new drummer, Steve Forrest.

Frontman Brian Molko said on the concept of the album: We've made a record about choosing life, about choosing to live, about stepping out of the darkness and into the light. Not necessarily turning your back on the darkness because it's there, it's essential; it's a part of who you are, but more about the choice of standing in the sunlight instead

Sigur Rós - Heima


In 2005, in the endless magic hour of the Icelandic summer, Sigur Rós played a series of concerts around their homeland. Combining both the biggest and smallest shows of their career, the entire tour was filmed, and now provides a unique insight into one of the world’s shyest and least understood bands captured live in their natural habitat.

Material from all four of the band’s albums is featured, including many rare and notable moments. Among these are a heart-stopping rendition of the previously unreleased Gitardjamm’, filmed inside a derelict herring oil tank in the far West Fjords; a windblown, one-mic recording of Vaka’, shot at a dam protest camp subsequently drowned by rising water; and first time acoustic versions of such rare live beauties as Staralfur’, Agaetis Byrjun’ and Von’.  Heima is the first chance to see Sigur Rós live on DVD.

Dave Matthews - Some Devil


Some Devil is the debut solo album by musician Dave Matthews. It was released on September 23, 2003. The album features several guest musicians, including long-time Dave Matthews Band collaborator guitarist Tim Reynolds and Phish frontman and guitarist Trey Anastasio. The album's first single, "Gravedigger", won a Grammy Award in 2004.

Of the album, Matthews said:
"I hadn't really been thinking about doing a solo album until I had a handful of songs that didn't really fit with the band, so I started with those and it just grew into a full record," Matthews said. "I kind of thought it'd be fun to put it out."
