Ltd edition half speed masterA seminal, incredibly influential hip hop release (also regarded as pretty much the last word in instrumental 'trip hop', a term used a lot at the time ), Endtroducing is simply one of the defining albums of the 90s. It is famously also the first record ever made entirely from samples of other people's records - with a particularly broad array of sources used, many mined from the catacomb-like basement under the artist's favourite record store in Sacramento, which has long since closed its doors. This is the store pictured by photographer B+ on the album cover and in many other shots included in the package.To celebrate the 25th anniversary of the album UMC are proud to present this Abbey Road Half Speed Mastered edition. 'Half-Speed Mastering' is an elaborate process whereby the source is played back at half its' normal speed and the turntable on the disc cutting lathe is running at 16 2/3 R.P.M. Because both the source and the cut were running at half their "normal" speeds everything plays back at the right speed when the record is played at home.24/09https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=InFbBlpDTfQ Show more
