We are excited to announce two new albums out on Octave Records! Audiophile Masters IX and Reason by Erik Deutsch, Theo Bleckmann & Sly5thAve are available on SACD and download today.

We were lucky enough to capture, Reason, a live show by master pianist, Erik Deutsch, avant-garde singer, Theo Bleckmann and multi-instrumentalist, Sly5thAve. These three don’t often get to play together, but when they do, magic happens. Recorded at Dazzle in Denver, this is an unforgettable performance that we are proud to share with you. The cover art for this album is also by Theo Bleckmann, so it has a uniquely accurate tie to the music.

Audiophile Maters IX is a collection of music you’ll want to put on repeat. This blend of classical guitar, jazz, bluegrass and folk is everything we love about DSD recording, it just sounds so real. With Octave artists you know and love like Bonnie & Taylor Sims and Seth Lewis and new artists that will hit home like Alexios Anest and Kyle Donovan, Volume IX is the perfect mix of new and familiar.

I hope you will go give both of these new albums a listen.
