Yellowbird

Yellowbird is a renowned German jazz label based in Munich (München). Owned and operated by Werner Aldinger, this label has established itself as a prominent force in the jazz music industry. With its authoritative presence, Yellowbird showcases exceptional talent and releases captivating jazz albums that resonate with music enthusiasts worldwide.

As an esteemed label, Yellowbird carries the prestigious Label Code LC 18386. This code serves as a unique identifier for the label, ensuring authenticity and credibility. With a commitment to excellence, Yellowbird consistently delivers high-quality jazz recordings that captivate listeners.

It is worth noting that Yellowbird shares the same postal address with both the main label enja and also enja's founder Horst Weber's other label. This close association highlights the interconnectedness of these influential entities within the music industry.

The album Ysla by Yumi Ito has become a true tidal current of personal stories, impressive improvisations, and the unique voice of the SwissPolish-Japanese singer, composer, and improviser. 

Musically, the work moves between art-pop, jazz, and neoclassical; thematically, it deals with loneliness &amp; separation, the world ending, and rebirth. In deep selfrefections, Ito has developed her vocal improvisation into a kind of universal language that can be understood anywhere. In addition, for the first time she recorded all piano parts herself, complemented by Kuba Dworak on double bass and Iago Fernández on drums. In addition, there are illustrious guests like Chris Hyson (synths; Jordan Rakei, The Magic Lantern, Snowpoet) and Szymon Mika (g), with whom Yumi Ito also plays in a duo. Mixing &amp; mastering of the seven original compositions was done by sound engineer Daniel Dettwiler at Studio Idee und Klang, using the same mixing console that Queen and Supertramp already used. For all these reasons, Ysla isn't simply Yumi Ito's fifth album under her own name, but marks a new peak in her opus.
