LAST COPIES! Here's the way out of print double LP from Scott Herren featuring Diplo and Blu Jemz from the shelves of Lab HQ. The full length Piano Overlord project from Scott Herren aka Prefuse, and we did it up deluxe for you with a vinyl run pressed on 150g LPs and housed in a heavy matte gatefold sleeve. If you haven't been following the singles we've released (both of which are now out of print), this is another guise for the prolific Herren, where he played all instruments- primarily Rhodes, busted Wurlitzer, and drums- for all the songs, and rearranged them in his studio in Spain. We think it's some of his best work, landing favorably between the Prefuse and Savath & Savalas styles. Lush and live sounding but with a slight production edge- check tracks like "Springs Arrival, Agoraphobia, Walk Home" and "Stay Home" for the goods. Bonus features on the LP include the instrumental to Blu Jemz' Keyboard King remix, and the unreleased alternate take of Diplo's remix, neither of which appeared on the previous PO vinyl.
