About This Item
In celebration of the 20th anniversary of Non Phixion's seminal LP, The Future Is Now, Uncle Howie Records is pleased to announce the of an acappella version of the album for the first time! Comprised of group members ILL BILL, Lord Goat (f/k/a Goretex), Sabac Red and DJ Eclipse, The Future Is Now remains the group's sole full length effort, garnering much acclaim among both critics and fans alike. Considered by many as an underground classic, TFIN boasts a production dream team that includes DJ Premier, Pete Rock and Large Professor, with additional production supplied by JuJu of The Beatnuts, Dave 1 of Chromeo, T-Ray and Necro. But it's the production on this that's absent from this version, as producers, remixers and deejays the world over will for the first time have access to these previously vaulted acappellas, allowing you to flex your creative ingenuity. In addition to NP vocals, the album features vocal appearances from MF DOOM, Necro, The Beatnuts, Al Tariq, Marly Metal and Moonshine. To boot, what makes this acappella all the more special, is that the LP jacket will feature an overhauled version of the right half of the never before seen 'final' mural illustrated by Mear One. Why just the right half you ask? Well Uncle Howie Records will also be releasing an instrumental version of the album which hasn't been made available on vinyl in nearly 20 years-also as a 2XLP-which will feature the left half of the mural, making this a true collector's edition to reel in the milestone!
