Michael Bass Maryland
Like Waldo, PD Pop has been hiding in plain sight for the last 45 years. With the help of Michael Bass, he comes out of the basement and on to Bandcamp, skipping several generations of recording technology in the process.

Falling Through Time: Music from the 1300s
by Joe Gore
Joe is clearly trying to do what I am also doing, that is taking a fresh approach to very old music. And. he’s an amazing guitar player to boot!

I feel like the COVID pandemic allowed/forced Dave to really think through and seriously polish his ideas. The songs here all feel so complete, sophisticated, and fully realized--moreso than the previous Manna / Mirage releases. While I've been loving these releases since 2015s Blue Dogs, this is the one I will be listening to the most ten years down the road. GREAT collaborations from all guests and great compositions/ideas from the playful brain of Dave Newhouse. Well done!

This elegantly composed chamber album from Ellen Tsai has a playful feel, almost like the soundtrack to a storybook.

A stirring set of chamber music from this composer from Berlin, which seem to capture hope & sadness at once.
