Lastly, New Amsterdam Records is looking forward to the highly-anticipated release of Battle Trance's Palace of Wind next Tuesday, August 26. The debut release from Travis Laplante's genre-defying tenor saxophone quartet Battle Trance (and NewAm's first co-release with the venerable NNA Tapes), the group recently released the first track from the album via The A.V. Club, which praised it as "a whole spectrum of hypnotic ethereality."

The release of their first track has received additional attention from Live Eye TV, calling it "an engulfing sonic swarm," and AdHoc, which claims it "flows from swirling ambience to bleating epiphany with the ephemeral and unquestionable logic of a dream."

Travis Laplante was also recently interviewed by Search & Restore in anticipation for the album's release. To stream the first track and watch the video trailer for the album, click here.
