Matt Berry - ‘Heard Noises’. New album out 24 January, 2025. Listen to the new single ‘I Gotta Limit’ (Feat. Kitty Liv). Acid Jazz Exclusive Gatefold Colour Vinyl / Signed Test Pressing / Blue Vinyl LP / CD / Cassette - pre order now 👆. Following the huge acclaim of Matt’s 2021 album ‘The Blue Elephant’ (“A sonic odyssey” – Uncut) – as well as last year’s one-off album of library music collaboration with the KPM label (“another string to Berry’s impressive bow” – Prog magazine) – we are proud to present ‘Heard Noises’, Matt’s eighth studio album with Acid Jazz, out 24 January, 2025. Out today, lead single ‘I Gotta Limit’ finds Matt trading lines with Kitty Liv (Kitty, Daisy and Lewis) as a man after a second chance with a woman impatient with his pleading. With a song structure inspired by Sly Stone, in a little over three minutes ‘I Gotta Limit’ takes in a plethora of musical ideas. An instantly catchy song which is part-Northern Soul, part-psych. We’re hugely excited to offer a beautiful label-exclusive gatefold edition on Psychedelic Swirl colour vinyl, alongside the standard version Sky Blue LP, as well as corresponding soft-pack CD and high quality retro-styled Cassette. We are also offering 70 limited-edition Test Pressings, each signed by Matt (with print insert of the cover art included).

When we announced Matt Berry’s forthcoming 10th studio album ‘Heard Noises’, we allocated a little over 100 test pressings up for sale, each to be signed by Matt. These have now landed and Matt has taken the time to sign each and every one! These have long sold out, but we do still have the spectacular gatefold colour vinyl versions available to pre-order. This is the only LP version to feature the full artwork design, by Matt himself, is pressed on psychedelic swirl vinyl, and is exclusive to the Acid Jazz webstore.
