Description
In the midst of the UK house raveolution of the early 1990s, London’s V4 Visions imprint documented the confluence of street soul, deep house, swingbeat and jungle sounds emanating from the clubs and pirate radio signals.
Over the course of half a decade, V4’sunparalleled 12” output referenced every significant Black British music scene; from lovers rock to jazz-funk, sound system reggae to hip-hop, new jack swing to garage, from artists Ashaye, Julie Stapleton, Maureen Mason, Rohan Delano, The Wades, and Endangered Species.
This 18-track double LP is the first critical overview of the label, with extensive notes by Simon Reynolds, era-defining photographs, and fresh remasters, all housed in a glorious foil-stamped gatefold tip-on sleeve.
Pressed on clear smoke double vinyl for National Album Day.
