News Update

Hey folks! It's a big day here in Ipecac land. A great day for a doubleheader. Twice the pleasure!

First up we introduce you to Australian musical maestro Julian Curwin and his TANGO SALOON. This is a fun, adventurous record that puts quite a twist on tango. Julian mixes in elements of jazz/morricone/classical/improv and electronic music to create something that is completely unique and deserves a genre of it's own. Hey and guess what? A guy named Danny Heifetz, late of Mr Bungle is part of the posse of eclectic musicians responsible for this effort. Good on ya Julian!!!!!

The perfect record to release at the same time is our genre defying favorite , Mugison! Our Icelandic compadre follows up his critically acclaimed MUGIMAMA CD ( CNN and Paste both named it one of 2005s best) with the stunning LITTLE TRIP. Part score, part soundtrack LITTLE TRIP accompanies heralded Icelandic director Baltasar Kormakur's film of the same name starring Forest Whitaker and Julia Stiles. Recorded at Sigur Ros' Reykjavik recording studio Sundlaughin (swimming pool), Little Trip features 17-songs/pieces including rockers like Pétur Grétarsson, a swooning cover of Tom Waits classic song Little Trip To Heaven and a live version of Mugimama's Murr Murr. A warm and twangy soundtrack and another beautiful gem from our Mugi. If you have not discovered him yet, now is the time.

Let's play 2!!
