Dion Mckenzie, better known as TYGAPAW, will release his debut album on vinyl.

The Brooklyn-based artist originally released GET FREE in November 2020 on Mexican label N.A.A.F.I., delivering an 11-track collection of hard-hitting, cathartic energy exploring Black joy, the active dismantling of imagined limitations, and the eradication of self-doubt using techno landscapes.

During the pandemic, Brooklyn label Mister Saturday Night Records became absorbed by the record.

Upon learning that there was no plan to release the record on vinyl, they started a conversation about making that happen. Two years later, and after numerous pressing delays, it’s now on its way: expect two slabs of orange vinyl with updated artwork and a limited edition hand-printed poster for Bandcamp orders.
