Kojey Radical - Don't Look Down - VINYL LP

Vinyl LP pressing. 2016 , Mr. Lif's first album in seven years. Don't Look Down is a chronicle of personal evolution, internal strength, and the ebbs and flows of life. It's the most introspective and harrowingly personal work from the ex-Def Jux legend-a record borne from successes, failures, and hard-learned lessons. The Boston prophet's first new work for Mello Music Group directly addresses the difficulties of keeping your head up amidst duress. You hear and feel the intensity of the fight, the sense of falling into despair, the helplessness of drowning, and the power of being able to save yourself. Over a 10-song cycle, Lif delivers poetic testament that avoids preachiness. These are agnostic sermons written to conceal and nurture him during a bleak period-cathartic confessionals that offered a conduit to bliss. The structure of Don't Look Down mirrors this personal descent and rebirth, a hero's journey worthy of Joseph Campbell.

This soundtrack features a extraordinary roster of modern artists including Sharon Jones, Alvin 'Youngblood' Hart, and the Carolina Chocolate Drops, performing pre-1935 blues, folk, jazz, and gospel classics.

A compilation of unreleased material from the Light Sleep and Voice Hardcore sessions alongside specially recorded new material, including a cover of InchThe VoidInch by The Raincoats. Both formats include a 20 page zine designed by Studio Tape Echo featuring photography from Masayuki Shioda and writing from both Disciples and Phew. It follows on from a limited edition cassette and digital of Phew's music on Disicples called Vertical Jamming, which compiled some of the cult Japanese artist's longform drone works. InchThis album is an unconscious sound sketch. It was recorded in Japan from 2017 to 2019, a closed and obstructive time. It is not a presentation of a worldview, but a personal documentary music of the late 2010s. The hidden message of this album is What a terrible world we live in, but let's survive.Inch - PhewSide A1 The Very Ears Of Morning2 The Void 3 Let's Dance Let's GoSide B1 The Very Ears Of Dusk2 All That Vertigo 3 Midnight Awakening4 Hearts And Flowers
