		From its beginnings in downtown Manhattan, Gramavision has looked for what is new in jazz, funk, and 20th Century composition, aiming into uncharted waters well beyond the mainstream.

		With a track record of platinum and gold albums and a truckload of street credibility Penalty’s president and CEO Neil Levine is going boldly into the future with a new explosive roster of talented artists.

	Rykodisc - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Claiming to be the first CD-only independent record label in the United States, Rykodisc was founded in 1983 or 1984[1] in Salem, Massachusetts, by Arthur Mann, Rob Simonds, Doug Lexa and Don Rose.
		The word "ryko" means approximately "sound from a flash of light" in Japanese, a reference to their intention to concentrate on the then-new compact disc technology.
		In 1999, Chris Blackwell left Island Records and bought Rykodisc for a reported $35 million as a means of acquiring music marketing and distribution expertise for his new venture, a media company called Palm Pictures.

		Rangell's 1987 debut album was released on Gaia/Gramavision Records, but soon thereafter he was signed by Larry Rosen and Dave Grusin at GRP Records.
		He has recorded with The Rippingtons, Chuck Loeb, Patti Austin, Tom Browne, and The GRP All Star Big Band and is featured on Don Grusin's Grammy-nominated CD The Hang.
		Though Rangell has recorded mostly in the contemporary/pop and smooth jazz formats, The Times of London notes that "heard live a much more robust and idiosyncratic player emerges." In the late '90s, Rangell continued his career with Shanachie Records and has now released fourteen CDs nationally and internationally.

		Most interesting, is the fact that any given live rendition of a particular song sounds completely different than any recording or previous performance of that same song.
		The group's first album, "Notes from the Underground," was released in 1991 on the independent label, Accurate Records.
		Although currently signed to the premier jazz label, Blue Note Records, MMW plays a style of jazz that is certainly not in the vein of what most would consider traditional.

		The record was mixed by NEVERWAS (aka Chris Cunningham)- known for his work with James Chance, Gavin Friday, Hal Willner, Anton Fier, and many others.
		However, percussionist Daniel Sadownick supplements the overall proceeding via his shrewd employment of worldbeat and loosely structured accents while drummer Gene Lake and bassist Fima Ephron prove to be near perfect foils for the guitarist's emphatic lines, rippling harmonics, and enticingly unorthodox phraseology.
		And while the Headless Torsos are not for the faint of heart, this recording dutifully highlights David Fiuczynski's distinct artistry.

		Maybe because of that brewing identity crisis, the band aimed at something different on this album.
		"Recording in New York gave us more time and space to experiment with fine tuning the details instead of relying exclusively on capturing what we do live.
		In fact, while in the studio recording their latest album, the band improvised many of the songs from scratch or from skeletal ideas.

	PETE LEVIN: Party In The Basement
		Pete's debut solo album for Gramavision, sparked by an assortment of soloists and sidemen who, like Pete, are all alumni of the Gil Evans Orchestra during the 70s and 80s.
		It's refreshing to hear an instrumentalist who is schooled in jazz harmony and orchestration, because he knows so many more ways to solve the common compositional problems than the average bozo with a stack of synthesizers and a new-age record deal.
		Pete released 3 solo albums for Gramavision Records: PARTY IN THE BASEMENT, A SOLITARY MAN, and the original release of MASTERS IN THIS HALL, while leading his own band, "Don't Ask", featuring reedman Alex Foster and bassist Jeff Berlin.

		Pianist Pete Levin "speaks" with a singularly compelling voice in A Solitary Man (Gramavision, R2 79457;62;45), a grip-ping affair whose vigor and virtuosity transcend the perfumed flaccidities of the typical con-fusion date.

	Medeski Martin and Wood: It's a Jungle in Here (Gramavision Records, 1993.10.19)
		This Gramavision debut reveals a subtle sense of orchestration, as several tracks are enhanced by the presence of the Groove Collective horn section and guitarist Mark Ribot.
		Their second CD as a unit and debut for Gramavision grabs the groove, shaking and twisting and wringing out interesting, organic variations.
		The true measure of any acid-jazz band (actually, few are bands, per se) is its ability to replicate its recorded sound live, on-stage before an audience, and this threesome has proved its mettle on the unforgiving Boston and Gotham scenes.
