Trakwerx releases 2 new projects

Trakwerx releases "Above As Below" by Cult With No Name, a stunning collection of songs with several guest artist appearances: Kelli Ali (Sneaker Pimps), Luc van Lieshout and Bruce Geduldig (Tuxedomoon), John Ellis (Stranglers, Peter Gabriel, Peter Hammill), and Meg Maryatt (17 Pygmies). Packaged in a deluxe fold-out letter-pressed sleeve, designed by world-renowned graphic designer Jonathan Barnbrook (David Bowie and Damien Hirst), Above as Below not only represents the pinnacle of CWNN’s achievements, but stands alone as an innovative, addictive and enduring song-cycle.


"CIII: Even Celestina Gets The Blues (A Tale of Love and Quantum Physics)" by 17 Pygmies completes the triptych of the "Celestina" saga. Musically, CIII is reminiscent of Celestina and CII: Second Son, but is also a departure into additional genres of music and theory, including classical, progressive rock and blues, and influenced by artists such as Ennio Morricone, Kraftwerk, Greg Lake, Howlin' Wolf and Tangerine Dream. 17 Pygmies invited additional artists to join them such as Bob Mora (bass), Lea Reis (vocals), Claire Chenette (oboe), Larissa Fedoryka (cello) and Heather Lockie (viola).

Downloads will be available by January 4 on CD Baby and physical discs will be available by the third week of January.
