Edition Records Listening Party + Exhibition Launch
Join Edition Records for a listening party at Holding Patterns — powered by one of the most immersive sound systems in the city.
Experience two standout releases in full sonic detail, including an exclusive first listen to Khmer Live in Bergen by Nils Petter Molvær — a bold live reimagining of his 1997 landmark album, recorded in 2023. With trip-hop pulses, ambient swells, Nordic noir, and Molvær’s searing processed trumpet, this widescreen update blurs the lines between jazz, electronica, and cinematic soundscape.
In Conversation: Edition Records
Open to musicians, students and fans wanting a behind-the-scenes-peek at one of the UK’s foremost jazz labels — join us for an informal conversation with Edition Records, as they discuss working with some of the international jazz scene’s leading lights, and what goes into releasing Jazz nationally and internationally in 2025.
First Pressings

Ian Stone is “Looking for the Wow”
“Life can’t just be the humdrum, the mundane and the routine before the inevitable slide to disease, decay and death. Why can’t we sneak in a bit of awesome, a tad of amazing and maybe a smidge of wonderful? A forest canopy opening onto a huge vista would be enchanting for some but my ancestors wandered in the desert for forty years, I think we’ve been outdoors enough. Others get their fix from the spiritual but I’ve been harbouring a grudge against God since my mother stopped me going to Arsenal after my Barmitzvah.
