About this product

In the four years since Adrian Younge's 'Something About April' album first appeared, the Los Angeles-based producer and multi-instrumentalist has become his own musical cottage industry. Not only has he collaborated with musical legends ranging from The Delfonics to Ghostface Killah, Ali Shaheed Muhammad and The Souls of Mischief; his work has also been sampled by such rap giants as 50 Cent, Jay-Z and Common. In an equally impressive twist, DJ Premier produced an entire album with Younge's work as his only source material (including multiple samples from 'April,' of course) 2014's 'PRhyme,' with MC Royce Da 5'9'. 'Something About April' is an album that flaunts all of the trademarks that have made Younge an in-demand name as a composer and sample source-point.

Adrian Younge - Adrian Younge Presents Something About April III   - COMPACT DISCS [CD]

This highly anticipated album is the epitome of analog transcendence, a sonic world fueled by a 30-piece orchestra, analog synthesizers, breakbeats and Brazilian vocalists that carol psychedelic melodies in Portuguese. Something About April III (SAA III), Adrian Younge pushes the musical franchise forward with fearless conviction, surpassing it's predecessors as an essential piece in today's vinyl culture. InchSomething About April III is the album I wanted to make when I created the first album in 2011. However, I didn't have the musical knowhow and experience to create the sound that was buried deep in my soul. Essentially, SAA III is the album that has taken me fifteen years to uncover and fully realize. From a cratediggers' perspective, it's the album I've been diggin' for in the deepest crates of my soul. A lost album I finally found. I hope this LP resonates with you as much as it has for me.Inch Throughout the years, Younge has earned the title of America's black genius a master at reviving the lost art of analog recording in a digital world. The Emmy-award winning composer, multi-instrumentalist and orchestrator has received comparisons to the finest works of Ennio Morricone as well as The Beatles relentless pursuit for sonic innovation. The Something About April collection has stood the test of time for contemporary vinyl enthusiasts and producers, being sampled by DJ Premier, Jay-Z, Common, 50 Cent and more. With so much experimentation, SAA III is Younge's boldest journey into the unknown, drawing from the heritage of this heavily sampled collection to shape the future of his legacy.Emboldened by the success of SAA I and II, Younge closes the trilogy with grander compositions for his uniquely inspired vinyl collecting audience. As the proceeding albums synthesize the boundaries between American and European cinematic soul, part 3 does the same, but with a

Various Artists - Best of Soundgarden (Redux) (Various Artists)   - VINYL LP

Gatefold double LP (yellow transparent vinyl) in die-cut O-Card sleeve, incl. Padded inner sleeves. InchBest of Soundgarden ReduxInch is the customary companion album, which is released alongside each full-album cover editions of the Redux Series. Accompanying InchSuperunknown ReduxInch, another 15 all-time classics and deep cuts from across the rest of the grunge gods' extensive catalogue are delivered by as many exciting acts on InchBest of Soundgarden ReduxInch. Rising at the end of the 20th Century, SOUNDGARDEN were loud, heavy, genuine, and unaffected by whatever was cool. Their mix of weighty power, soaring melodies and punk sneer made them ideal standard bearers for the grunge movement, but their towering musicianship and intelligent songcraft helped them transcend the era and remain iconic far beyond their origins in the Seattle scene. Arguably their finest and most comprehensive statement, InchSuperunknownInch was the album that launched them to global mega-stardom. It contains some of the most lasting, meaningful, and heaviest songs they ever wrote. Superunknown ReduxInch presents new takes on all fifteen tracks from the seminal SOUNDGARDEN album from some of the loudest, coolest, and most eclectic bands across rock and metal today, along with a few less heavy but absolutely captivating contributions. The Magnetic Eye Redux Series and it's companion volumes feature hand-picked classic albums from across the history of rock and metal re-imagined in their entirety from start to finish. Artists we love from within and outside the heavy rock landscape choose tracks to make their own, bringing these milestone records into the new millennium with crushing heaviness and searing energy. To date, we've produced Redux editions of PINK FLOYD's InchThe WallInch, HELMET's InchMeantimeInch, BLACK SABBATH's InchVol. 4Inch, HENDRIX's InchElectric LadylandInch, ALICE IN CHAI
