Paris representative Onra is proud to announce his next album release, “Chinoiseries Pt. 2″, dropping on November 15th on All City Records. For this project has been digging for Chinese and Vietnamese vinyl to create a themed instrumental hip-hip beat journey just like he did five years ago with the first volume. The second edition of this series, which features 32 instrumentals all sampled from various vinyl found during various trips to South East Asia. Enjoy a short video trailer for “Chinoiseries Pt. 2″ which captures Onra digging for vinyl on one of his recent trips, while molding the original samples into a beat that you’ll soon get to enjoy.

Ya’ll know our homie AD Bourke from his funky “Mirage” album.

So you read all about fLako‘s ‘The Mesektet’ album by now huh? As stated before it’s a collection of music previously only available digitally or not vailable at all. The album was supposed to drop in only a few days, but I just saw that HHV is expecting them around the 20th instead. Either way you can pre-order a 2 x 7″ vinyl copy with beautiful artwork by painter Dan May and listen to another sneak preview.

With Record Store Day just around the corner (this Saturday) we thought you might appreciate this brand new promotional video from our Analog friends. It is on this day that thousands of people show their love for the other black gold. Together with young videographer Noël Schoolderman, Analog has created several promotional video’s showcasing their love for vinyl. In case you’ve missed the previous video’s…don’t sweat. They can be found here and here.
Take a peak at the inside of a vinyl pressing plant and follow one of the freshly pressed records to it’s new home (by way of a record shop of course). And for those wondering when the next Analog party is going to take place. No worries. Because they will return later this year…bigger & better!
