Volume two enlists local production duo, the Rondo Brothers, to produce some of Vinyl’s best new work. Collaborating with Tony Mindel, they blew-open seven Vinyl tracks and added the Rondo’s whiplash drumming and exaggerated electronic thump. The music swells with harmonica and horn heavy percussion foundation that Vinyl is built on. Legendary bass player and friend Les Claypool adds his funky and expressive sound to four vibrant tracks.

Vinyl
From the very beginning, Vinyl was noticeably influenced by the old school funk grooves of bands like the Meters, while still holding a certain flare for Latin, reggae, jazz and dub elements. Vinyl’s self titled album will get you dancing with its Latin percussion mixed with funky helpings of R&B and reggae.
