V/A !!! / Out Hud - Lab Remix Series Volume 2

Description

Originally released on vinyl only in October 1999, this now-legendary split EP was the second installment in our Lab Remix Series and a co-release with Zum. Both OUTHUD and !!! have since relocated from Sacramento to Brooklyn and become virtual household names in the world of indie-rock. Recent Warp Records signees !!! contribute one long and rubbery track of their over-amped funk/punk that often draws comparisons to everything from JAMES BROWN, CHIC and ESG to LIQUID LIQUID and THE CLASH. OUTHUD, meanwhile, supply us with three alternate versions of a single classic track. Their trademark cello-heavy dub/instrumental sound is in full-effect here, given the once-over by live-sound mixer/producer Justin Vandervolgen.
