"In the years since the release of Adrian Younge's
Something About April
, he has been coined America's black genius: the evocation of analog vestige in a digital era. His majestic music has garnered him reverence, likened to Ennio Morricone's best work and the Beatles' tenacity to create new sounds. Fortuitously,
Something About April
has made an indelible impression on modern vinyl heads and producers alike, being sampled by DJ Premier, Jay-Z, Common, 50 Cent and more. The Something About April brand is an axiom to the modern 'Breakbeat' and Linear Labs is happy to announce its successor:
Something About April II
. As with
Something About April
--
Something About April II
is the sort of recording that is more than deserving of an all instrumental treatment. Recorded with Younge's collection of rare instruments,
Something About April II
advances his musical paradigm with enterprising concepts and grander compositions -- it synthesizes the boundaries between dark American soul and classic European cinema. Younge is the experimental spirit of the modernist vanguard, looking at the past to create the future. What this album extrapolates, from vinyl culture, will become further magnified by its sampling down the line.
Something About April II
will replace the former as a holy grail for producers and collectors alike."
