First, we’d like announce a new release by our long-time friend and label’s artist, David Vangel!
The album is entitled “BNAPTH” and it is an astonishing 4 track – jazz fused – instrumental hip-hop release which follows the successes of his moodier releases with Equinox Records.
This new release comes as a Digital Download as well as a limited edition floppy-like CD version and is Out Now on Toronto based 5&1/4 records.
More info can be found on the official release page/post on Vangel’s website, here:

Released on both, limited Vinyl and limited CD, this 5-track album release brings forth the “electric” side of one of our label’s most characteristic and unique producers. The release also includes a new version of “Jaw Breaker” which was the title track of Geste‘s first release on Equinox Records.
