Ja, richtig gelesen. Für 25 Stunden kann anlässlich des 25-jährigen Jubiläums von „3 Feet High and Rising“ die gesamte Musik (alle Alben, Singles und Remixe, die gesamte Diskografie!!!) von De La Soul kostenlos heruntergeladen werden.
„It’s about allowing our fans who have been looking and trying to get a hold of our music to have access to it,“ De La Soul member Posdnuos tells Rolling Stone. „It’s been too long where our fans haven’t had access to everything. This is our way of showing them how much we love them.“ […]
The release of the group’s catalog is the first of numerous upcoming projects. In a few weeks, they’ll post new songs to their site, with You’re Welcome, their first album since 2004’s The Grind Date, expected to be released before summer. Next month will also see the release of Preemium Soul on the Rocks, a six-song EP with three beats each from DJ Premier and Pete Rock. The group is also planning a visit to Detroit to work on an unreleased beat from J Dilla, the prolific producer who passed away in 2006. „Dilla was the Tupac of producers,“ says Posdnuos. „He has so many unreleased things that no one has heard. His family knows how vital and important an ingredient his music was to our work.“
Die Aktion startet heute, am Valentinstag um 17.00 Uhr unserer Zeit und endet am Samstag, 15. Februar um 18.00 Uhr auf http://www.wearedelasoul.com/. Wie geil ist das denn bitte?
