Inspiration Information, Vol. 1

Product description

STRUT as the label, takes a break from its schedule of funky compilations and moves into new studio recordings for the first time. Entitled 'Inspiration Information', the series brings together current artists and producers with their musical heroes for a mouth-watering one-off collaboration. With each album centred around an intensive five-day writing and recording session, the emphasis is on spontaneity, musicianship and an open A&R brief.

Review

Inspiration Information provides both parties the chance to up their sounds a bit without going overboard, and simply put, it works. -- Big Shot

The funky drum-and-bass duo team up with Detriot native Amp Fiddler- trying their hand at his sultry, acoustic brand of neo-soul- and the ensemble effort proves undeniably groove-worthy. -- Beyond Race

Inspiration Information showcases everything we've come to expect from Fiddler (soul-drenched vocals, mood-setting keyboard riffs) while spotlighting everything we demand from Sly & Robbie (gravy-thick basslines, solidly rhythmic drums and percussion, tight arrangements). -- XLR8R
