El Michels Affair - Enter The 37th Chamber - Crimson Strike - VINYL LP

Dance and electronic

Originally released in 2009 on Fat Beats Records, Enter the 37th Chamber transformed iconic Wu-Tang Clan songs into gritty, fully live instrumentals inspired by the cinematic production style of RZA. What began as an experimental tribute quickly became a worldwide cult classic embraced by DJs, record collectors, hip-hop fans, and members of Wu-Tang themselves. After hearing the project, RZA famously said InchThis is American music right here.Inch Led by saxophonist/organist Leon Michels and producer/engineer Jeff Silverman, El Michels Affair blends vintage soundtrack music, early reggae, and raw analog soul into what the group calls InchCinematic Soul.Inch Over the years, the album has taken on a life of it's own, heard everywhere from independent record shops and radio stations to restaurants, film sets, and even theme parks across multiple continents. Nearly two decades later, Enter the 37th Chamber remains one of the defining releases in the Fat Beats catalog and a landmark recording in instrumental hip-hop and cinematic soul. This pressing is presented on the Crimson Strike color vinyl, channeling the energy of a karate chop through a combination of color-in-color effects and vivid splatter in yellow, red, and black. Housed in a heavyweight jacket featuring the album's iconic Chinese opera mask artwork, embossed and finished with spot gloss highlights. Includes an exclusive OBI strip and a 12Inchx24Inch full-color band photo poster. Album Tracks 1. Duel of the Iron Mics 2. C.R.E.A.M 3. Mystery of Chessboxin' 4. Can It All Be So Simple 5.
