Richtaste

Richtaste, the Swiss alternative rock band led by creative mastermind and lyrical genius Stefan Frankhasuer, is now setting up to release their sophomore album Lights And Shades (Sunset) on September 23rd. The first single from the album is "Good Days Are Gone." The entire CD was produced by Pat Aeby who is the drummer for the multi platinum Geffen Recording artist Krokus. The songs on the Lights and Sounds CD recount Stefan's life experiences pursuing a career in music and growing the bands repertoire for the new CD.

Richtaste is a band made up of Stefan Frankhasuer (Vocals & Guitar), Rafael (Guitar), Roger (Bass), Marc (Drums) and Retro (Keyboard). The new album shows the growth and ripeness the band has gained by playing large stages live over the last year. And, Lights And Shades is produced by Pat Aeby (Krokus) who elevates the bands to the top of their game. The songs are done a high level with lyrics that are compelling and accessible throughout the entire CD. Coupled with the proficient musicianship, Lights And Shades is an appealing and awesome second CD.

The band's debut self titled album has received amazing amounts of critical acclaim by all sorts of media outlets around the world. The debut CD also had a great amount of radio play in the United States due to the label picking up the CD for the rest of the world outside of Switzerland and Germany. Sunset Records released the debut to help set up the Lights And Shades follow up CD. “We are working five (5) singles to radio starting this week,” says Don Lichterman, the head of Sunset. Lichterman goes on to say that he “must strategically work this album. One of the guys is going into the military service from late October until February of next year. We are doing key bookings in America before and after at industry conventions before doing a Europe tour after he is done with his service.”

The band, recently just played the main stage at the sold out The annual Open-air Etziken preparing for the Lights And Shades sophomore title. The group and producer Pat Aeby spent a lot of time with over 30 songs to choose these strong 14 tracks for the upcoming release. “This is really a considered a debut although we did use the self titled to help introduce the music to media, radio and retail,” says Lichterman about bringing the band to the US. “And then conversely with Lights And Shades we will work with Universal in Switzerland to deliver the music.”

"When I hear our songs today, I really feel we could not be better in a better place today," says singer and songwriter Stefan Fankhauser. "Our sound has more eggs (nuts) than before! Our expectations were not met," admits Fankhauser and relates to the new support the band has in place that has opened up their musical ideas and the production pieces it all together perfect.” "We were busy with the production for so much time, that we already were filled up to the top with new ideas when releasing" Frankhauser says with his enticing European accent. Unapologetically the five now dare to face also critical issues. Richtaste know that light and shadow in the real world are as close together as in the show business. "Supermen" i.e. simply states that at least a dozen blue dressed superheroes is needed to save the planet before the impending demise. And "Tom Rocket" deals with the question of what drives a man to spend the nights slaughtering anything that moves in a video game using what can be described as its pseudonym.

It is not out of the blue for bands to boast about their latest album release well before it even gets to retail stores. From the opening track, Rocket Man, you can hear the high level of confidence. The pace never slows down with the first single Good Days Are Gone, the driving dark foreboding second track, to the outrageously catchy, Superman and Night Of 1,000 Dreams, the obvious hit singles waiting in the sings if there ever were hit songs. Frankhauser couldn't let the year’s political landscape go without directing his songs right at the US government, as he does in Superman. And, then all the way down to the final few songs on the CD, the uplifting Night Of 1,000 Dreams and Duke Of WestPoint, gives Richtaste fans 14 of the strongest alternative rock and pop songs of the year.

With Lights And Shades, Richtaste will gain many new fans in the United States along with keeping their European fan base excited about the new CD

Mov Sessian Project Available From Sunset Classics this month

Clarinetist Claudine Movsessian is one of the most acclaimed classical artists that has manifested in music today - renowned for her melodic, polished, dignified, imaginative, creative clarinet work and for her broad undertaking in delivering a modern day classical tradition to broader and youthful avid listener. Over the past few years, she has recorded many musical works including some of the best clarinet repertoire of the current day. Now, Sunset Classics is proud to announce that (Claudine) Movsessian has brought together two other music aficionados (Ema Dei and Dan Handrabur) for what is the first time recording of a full length album of masterpieces on its' debut self titled CD with Sunset (Classics). On this first release at the Sunset Classics & Jazz (SC&J) company, (Claudine) Movsessian performs her glorious clarinet works, along with a never-before-released 'clarinet and orchestral' arrangements of sound recordings, on a twelve (12) song full length album. The self titled debut album, is available in stores on February 10.

“This is one of the most traditional American klezmer albums that I have ever heard” says Don Lichterman, the head of Sunset, although that applies to the klezmer component of this intriguingly melange of music in general. French clarinetist Claudine Movsessian has gathered friends and created something quite different, yet timeless. Movsessian's clarinet is driving on the first single and the first video entitled "Heyser Bulger", as the trio blends in Rom fiddling to "Oi mama, bin ich verlieb." “There is also a sense of improvisation that pushed its' music to the edges of classical styles, yet it is very accessible for any avid music listener,” (Don) Lichterman continues to say about the self titled CD. “Overall, it is indeed a tad different from typical American klezmer music but there is that international feel throughout all of the recordings on it” states (Don) Lichterman.

The middle eastern style drums help make up the rhythms on the several klezmer and Yiddish ensembles and (Claudine) she has gathered musicians from around the world, that make up the diverse group. Influences include not only klezmer styles and what be described as Yiddish, its Middle Eastern rhythms are accompanied by clarinet krechts, that make up a lively and what has been described as syncopated classical compositions. The trio that make up the Mov Sessian Project blend itself gently together which creates a powerful group and moreover, a high leveled album from the beginning to the end of it.

(Claudine) Movessian's clarinet playing is second to none and the percussion work is a great blend for fans of world music and of klezmer styled music. The approach to building the songs on this debit album with Sunset (Classics) has been continuously evolving for many years. It just happened to culminate on what became this self titled album. “What fascinates me is how the beauty of the music shines through each song in such a lively way” says (Don) Lichterman, and is “performed in such a 'romantic' way too which is hard to accomplish this day and age.” (Claudine) Movsession has had the ability to now collaborate with two amazing crossover music artists, Ema Dei and Dan Handrabur, two music 'specialists' that have helped revolutionize the way that world music and electronic styled music is looked at today. They have all incorporated their own musical philosophies to create this very unique movement if you will, in this international style of music.

In its approach to making a 'modern' yet rooted group of songs on the CD, the hope is to fuse the old with the new, which is key to being a viable classical music artist in this modern day. Claudine Movsessian and her Mov Sessian project has only been an exclusive Sunset Classical artist for less than year, and they have already captured the attention of classical music listeners in no time at all, and in essence is alluring its audiences worldwide with her breathtaking playing and with the overall tones that are just wonderful to hear.

DJ Zevzek

DJ Zevzek is set to release the “Dis Duzzit CD!
Europe’s famous Disc Jockey (DJ) spinner known as DJ Zevzek has released his very own full length album, “Dis Duzzit.” The full-length album is filled with fourteen (14) original sound recordings and musical works of almost an hour and a half worth of constant grooves, making for a extensive mix of electronic and house material. It is being released with the Sunset Jazz (Recordings) Record label, at Sunset Classics & Jazz (SC&J). The album is entitled, “Dis Duzzit” and the album name is also a song named on the jazzy and groovy full length CD, and it is representative of one of the better types of traditional beats on a long form CD that has been released in a very long time.
DJ Zevzek is a European who's parents had fled the one time communist ruled Romania and he was eventually allowed to follow them which is where he learned to spin, mix and DJ. Referred to as a so called perfectionist DJ and 'spinner' “DJ Zevzek,” has been a quintessential house-music DJ since the very inception of the overall sound ad genre. “I, myself, have been influenced by some of the most innovative DJs from all over the world,” he (DJ Zevzek) says, his “influences are” wide and obscure calling on the likes of “Couleur 3 and Dr.Silk Sal, ” to help build on his grooving and colorful style.
This overall style was also built while using SL1200 turntables, a Korg Polisix and a TR606 drum box on the four track recorder he had used since he started spinning professionally in his career. But today, he is considered to be a modern styled DJ during live performances. His brand new CD (Dis Duzzit) is a high-quality and driving album that is pristine sounding from the first song to last song ('Hyperdiamonds') that is also the first single being released around the world. This collection is a work of art that is perfect for fans of DJ work and house music.
The new release, “Dis Duzzit,” showcases the DJ's influences bringing the beats and sounds together from albums and songs he grew up playing and listening to for a long time. On the new CD being released at Sunset (Jazz), is a touch of the old school coupled with the new and modern day sounds that are seamlessly blended. The brand new CD is a fresh batch of songs influenced by an old tradition, by mixing in his own influences making up this brand-new, 2015 release. His career as a DJ began while listening to 'pirate radio' on the French border and he (DJ Zevzek) says that the those sounds were “very funky electronic cuts” such as songs like 'Back to Mono' and while listening to the Dr. Silk Sal's radio program on pirate radio, led him showing up to visit him (Dr. Silk Sal) at the station and at his Petit Saconnex penthouse apartment which is where he discovered the SL1200 turntables that he says had “custom arms and styluses.” Dr. Silk Sal allowed the young DJ to scratch, mix, cut, drop tracks which soon gave him (DJ Zevzek) this musical and rhythm sound and in no time at all, the new DJ started making remixes of popular club songs using a capella, dub and instrumental versions. Soon after that, he (DJ Zevzek) started playing out live at places like Club 58 becoming their resident DJ. He then toured around the world playing everywhere in Europe and in major cities like Vancouver doing raves and after hours clubs while also producing and mixing original dance tracks for all out Roland jams along with live scratching and dubbing at the jam sessions and all nighters.
The popular DJ was also doing work for EA (Entertainment Arts) with songs now on the Quake 3 and NHL 98 production and games and the DJ has done work for the Frontline Assembly, a popular industrial group. “His album is a real, angelic sound of dance music that is a grooving, funky jazzy and wide opened free style set of music,” says Don Lichterman, the head of Sunset (Sunset Jazz Recordings) about this new LP set to hit stores on March 31, 2015. “It shows the world a great vibe on the entire CD and honestly, it takes me back to when I was doing the club scene in San Francisco, Philly (Philadelphia) and in New York City back in the mid ’90s. The DJ Zevzek then says about his new and debut CD with the Sunset label that this “new collection of dance tracks touches upon soul, funk, gospel and disco while remaining minimal, trippy and spacey.”
(Don) Lichterman also says about DJ Zevzek that he is “a customarily hard working man that believes that the sound of his (DJ Zevzek) music laid down on this full length fourteen (14) song CD will be a staple in this format and style which is very niche, yet also very popular with music fans from all around the world” and that “he considers the consistent and positive reaction of his fan base, this as DJ that will be around forever.”
“Dis Duzzit” by DJ Zevzek is available to stream online worldwide today, and the downloads and physical CD is available in stores that sell music on March 31st. Anyone can listen now and all fans of beats and dance music will be able to get the full length CD soon.
The songs on the CD are as follows:

2. A Place For Us
3. Concentrix
4. No Juicebar
5. Kinetiq [Reborn]
