Danny Scott Lane is a New York-based musician, photographer and sound artist whose work drifts between jazz, ambient, and gentle funk. Originally an actor and singer before turning to photography, Lane brings a cinematic and emotional sensibility to his recordings -- music that feels intimate, tactile, and quietly surreal. He has scored films and commercials, and his eclectic taste has taken him to DJ booths around the world. Since his first tape release in 2019, Lane has released nine albums, five of them with WRWTFWW Records, each expanding his distinct blend of warmth, rhythm, and daydream. His tenth LP, House of Alice, welcomes back three-time collaborator David Lackner and introduces Michael Gagliardi, further deepening the reflective world Lane continues to build. The album's title is derived from the Alice Austen House. Danny took an interest in the prolific "street" photography of Alice where she often captured everyday life and intimate depictions of women's lives beautifully. Inspiring images that reflect in his own photography as well.

Just. Life. is FDC's second endeavor after their 2022 debut Some Kind Of Wisdom. The A-side draws inspiration from everyday life. Things that are often overlooked. Birds whistling. Just being somewhere spending time together. Whereas the first four tracks open up a can of playful jazz the B-side explores more heavy conceptualizations. Birth and love for a child and the passing of a friend. Life and death. The cyclicity of it all. Fruit Distro Collective is a project by long-time friends Boris van der Hoff and Tristan Coco. Raised on boombap beats, schooled through jazz composition and inspired by Afro and Latin styles. Pour some reel-to-reel tape sauce over it et voilá.

Simon Herody put together a live solo performance sequencing electronic devices on stage for him to jam over with acoustic instruments. He played a lot in hotels and lobbies. The music had to be present but not too intrusive. Subtle electronics to guide his saxophone and flute playing. The setup proved successful and inspired him to compose the works that would become Hard Lounge. "At the same time, I was working at a bar/record store in Neukölln called Motif. Everything changed when I discovered the album Heisei No Oto - Japanese Left-field Pop From The CD Age. I remember this guy, Jamie, who would sometimes bring new releases to the shop. This album really changed things for me; I was constantly playing it and it inspired the creation of these works tremendously. The composition process for Hard Lounge was pretty unclear. I never really made conscious choices; I wanted to escape the conflicts that come with picking the right chords. I aimed to create music that transports your imagination to a sort of retro '80s jazz lounge, where people feel comfortable and at ease just sitting and listening. I wanted to act like a music designer, giving people a chance to listen without demanding too much of their attention."
