New from On-U




SHERWOOD AT THE CONTROLS VOLUME 2 1985 - 1990

From On U Sound: "Sequel to the acclaimed first anthology we released last year, the At The Controls series documents the production skills of Adrian Sherwood, taking in both On-U Sound material and commissions for other labels. As Test Pressing put it so eloquently in their recent review, you can expect “crushing machine beats, multiplied by delay, melodies that teleport in and out, vocals treated stretched and disembodied from song”!

Beautiful double vinyl edition with printed inners, or CD with 20 page booklet. Both versions come with extensive sleevenotes and photos, and have been mastered by o.g. On-U Sound final touch magician Kevin Metcalfe. Buy it here

Adrian welcomed Boiler Room into his studio last week to give a rundown of the records that informed his signature sound. It was filmed for their 'Collections' video series and you can watch it back here.
