Favorite Recordings is proud to announce the release of Endless – Universal Cosmic Sounds, a visionary compilation celebrating a decade of musical archaeology and a special milestone: the thirteenth release curated by Charles Maurice since his debut in 2015. Endless is an immersive journey through cosmic soundscapes, where jazz-funk, pioneering electronics, and ambient experimentation merge into a unique listening experience. The collection features 10 rare recordings, meticulously selected from Charles Maurice's personal collection, spanning from 1969 to 1985 — an era of fearless creativity and bold sonic exploration.
Each track opens a window into a different musical galaxy: from the pioneering Moog experiments of Beaver & Krause to the lush electronic symphonies of Jean-Claude Petit, from the dreamy synth work of Ector Davis to the cinematic beauty of Bernard Larquet. Highlights include "Bagnols" by Patrick Marcel, a privately pressed 1985 recording that fuses ambient textures with ECM-inspired jazz, and the Scandinavian jazz-funk masterpiece by Wlodek Gulgowski, which elegantly bridges groove and cosmic atmospheres.
Unearthed from obscurity, these forgotten gems testify to a timeless vision of music without boundaries — a rediscovery of the rare, the beautiful, and the endlessly imaginative. LP with tip-on packaging and detailed liner notes, a treasured object for collectors and lovers of visionary music.
