2econd Class Citizen – The Small Minority DJ Food Megamix

Today, we are really proud to announce a preview of 2econd Class Citizen‘s album in the form of a megamix from none other than Strictly Kev aka DJ Food of Ninja Tune Records. Taking ‘The Small Minority‘, cutting it down to size and fitting it into a 16 minute mix was no mean feat, but he managed to pull it off effortlessly and with the skill you have become accustom to if you have ever heard a DJ Food mix.
A keen supporter of 2econd Class Citizen and our label over the years. He’s always had the time to do a nice write up in his blog www.djfood.org and help us in any way he can. So without any further ado make sure you check this great 16 minute mix on Strictly Kev‘s soundcloud page or download it on our bandcamp page where you can additionally pre-order the album. The album will drop on May 25th and is distributed via Kudos (Worldwide) and Fake Four Inc. (USA, Japan).
If you want to download the mix, please go here:

David Vangel – Split Visionary – Official Video
Today, we are proud to present you the amazing new video of David Vangel’s “Split Visionary”, directed by Henry Mak & Sean Dunnigan!
Following Sandpaper Script, Split Visionary is the second video of David Vangel’s “Bradth Control” album which was released about a year ago on Equinox Records.
Enjoy & share with your friends!
——————————————————————————————————————————–
——————————————————————————————————————————–
Also,
To celebrate the airing of this video, we came up with a special offer which will be valid until Sunday, April 29th and only on our e-shop, and it goes like this:
If you purchase the Vinyl or CD version (or both) of David Vangel’s “Breadth Control” album, shipping costs will NOT apply! Yes, so that’s FREE Worldwide Shipping!
To benefit from this offer, follow the link bellow to go directly to our e-shop:
http://www.e-q-x.net/shop/david-vangel/
——————————————————————————————————————————–
About the album…
“Breadth Control“, the debut full length from David Vangel (formerly Vangel), is a mind altering affair loaded with emotive melodies, explosive dynamics, and savage gauntlets of fierce drum programming. Raising the bar, the 13-track collection is a fusion of sampling and live instrumentation, including elements of hiphop, jazz, indie rock, electronic, gentle psychedelia, and even world music. The journey of “Breadth Control” is intense; moving listeners with orchestral string arrangements and an overall cinematic quality that creates abstract visions ranging from optimism to melancholy.
On a thematic level, “Breadth Control” is an exploration of the scope of human thinking while it is engaged in sound and music. A musical experience that is the intermingling of genres, the debut LP is the future of electronic music from the brain of one of Canada’s most prominent sound pioneers.
For more info and shop links, please visit the official release page here: http://www.e-q-x.net/releases/david-vangel-breadth-control/

Also, be sure to watch Vangel‘s Sandpaper Script as well as the Breadth Control Preview video on YouTube.
