Blockhead’s classic LP Uncle Tony’s Coloring Book has received a limited edition red and blue 2LP pressing on Detroit-based label Young Heavy Souls. The original release in 2007 was on CD formats only, updated with a digital rendition in 2015 and a first-time standard black vinyl in 2017. 

The release, Blockhead’s third full-length, fuses dynamic concoctions of hip-hop, electronic, and the abstract, and features DJ Signify on turntables, Damien Paris on guitars, electronics, synthesizer, and co-productions, and Andrew Totolos on the drums. The entire album was recorded and mixed at Ape Sauce Studios in Brooklyn, New York, with original artwork across the cover, inner gatefold, and jackets by Owen Brozman. 

Also released this year is Blockhead’s new hip-hop focused album Free Sweatpants, featuring Open Mike Eagle, Armand Hammer, Homeboy Sandman, Aesop Rock, and more. 

The new colored vinyl print of Uncle Tony’s Coloring Book can be ordered directly from Young Heavy Souls.
