Richard Russell's - Everything Is Recorded Release New Album
Richard Russell's collaborative music project Everything Is Recorded today announce and release Solstice Equinox - a new album comprising forty pieces recorded in four days between 2023 and 2024 at The Copper House, Russell's West London studio. Solstice Equinox is the fourth Everything Is Recorded album and comes four months after the third, Temporary.
Each session took place on a solstice or equinox — the Summer and Winter Solstices, and the Spring and Autumn Equinoxes. Across these four days, a revolving cast of musicians, peers, and longtime collaborators gathered for fully improvised sessions. Words about the seasons were written on the studio walls; otherwise Russell gave the players no instructions. After the sessions, he edited and mixed the recordings into the four distinct selections of ten tracks each that collectively form Solstice Equinox. The lineup blends longtime collaborators with fresh voices, including Alabaster DePlume, Jah Wobble, Ibeyi, Samantha Morton, Laura Groves, Jack Peñate, Roses Gabor, Mary In The Junkyard, Georgia,, Sampha, Florence Welch, Yazz Ahmed, CASISDEAD and more. Each session was uploaded to Bandcamp and SoundCloud as soon as it was completed.
The Solstice Equinox album further edits and compiles the four groups of ten tracks into one coherent album consisting of the forty songs, at a running time of one hour forty minutes. Solstice Equinox will be released digitally, and on limited edition vinyl. Each LP comes in a bespoke, screen-printed sleeve, hand-crafted at XL Recordings' west London headquarters. They are available to buy straight away via Everything Is Recorded's Bandcamp and the XL Recordings store.
The Solstice Equinox sessions came towards the end of a prolific five-year period for Russell, capped by the release of Everything Is Recorded's critically acclaimed third album Temporary in February 2025. The album features an extraordinary roster of collaborators including Sampha, Florence Welch, Bill Callahan, Noah Cyrus, Maddy Prior, Berwyn, Kamasi Washington, Rickey Washington, and many of the artists involved in Solstice Equinox.

Adam Hattaway & The Haunters Release New Single + Video 'Tommy Sees Ghosts'
Just months since the release of their Marlon Williams produced album High Horse, Christchurch's own Adam Hattaway & The Haunters are back with a new single and video, " Tommy Sees Ghosts," accompanied by b-side " Roadside Incident." Recorded to 2' 16-track tape in an old wool-shed deep in the south of Aotearoa, Tommy Sees Ghosts features a haunting and hypnotic groove reminiscent of the band's earlier music, with one foot in the '70s Stones disco ditch, and a refined focus on vocals akin to their recent album. The band rolls along in a late-night, inebriated haze, threatening to go off the rails at all times but sticking together like glue. Inspired by true ghost stories, Adam delves into the tale of Tommy who lives close to the wind, getting up in the middle of the night to wave buenas noches to friends or lovers, dead and alive. In the liminal space between waking and sleeping, he communes with the dead and does whatever he damn well pleases. What does he want? Everything. Accompanying the new track is an eerie music video by Hēmi Baker. We follow Hattaway portrayed as a noctule familiar and inspired by Miley Cyrus' ' Flowers ', as he dances through Melbourne's Abbotsford Convent. Tommy Sees Ghosts/ Roadside incident are available on all major streaming platforms and BandCamp For more information and a listen, visit

Fans can access ' Letters' now on Nadia Reid's Bandcamp page, possibly for a limited time, as Reid states "Felt sentimental. Might delete later."
