- The modern house classic will get re-released via Comatonse Recordings in May.
DJ Sprinkles's Midtown 120 Blues will be reissued in May.
The album is a classic in the deep house canon, and was RA's album of the year of 2009. (Our review described it as a "meditation on the 'meaning' of house, a critique of the recent deep house revival, an exploration of one man's personal relationship with the sound.")
As FACT report, the record will receive a reissue via Sprinkles' own Comatonse Recordings (it originally came out on Japanese label Mule). It will only get reissued on CD (the Comatonse website says "there are no plans for a vinyl edition because the bass spatialization effects that give many of these recordings their sonic character are incompatible with vinyl mastering techniques.")
The album will arrive with custom packaging hand assembled by Sprinkles. The CD will be housed "in archival vinyl pouch with double-sided insert card, phonograph style anti-static inner sleeve, and 4x4 panel poster insert printed on newsprint."
