The American rap artist Nate Dogg earned the nickname of “King Of Hooks” after providing guest vocals for a multitude of hit rap songs between 1992 and 2007. He began his career as a member of 213, but recorded three successful solo albums in total, including the 2001 album Music & Me. The album was led by the single “I Got Love”, which remains one of his biggest hits to this day, alongside the title track. The album featured guest appearances by Dr. Dre, Xzibit, Kurupt, Fabolous, Ludacris, Pharoahe Monch and Snoop Dogg amongst others. It peaked at #3 on the Billboard Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums Chart. Music & Me is available as a limited edition on silver coloured vinyl. This 2LP includes an insert with lyrics.

Memorie d’inverno è il primo joint album tra Original Krash (Producer) e Casco aka Helmet (Performer) uscito sotto l’etichetta indipendente Outboard Music. Il disco è Hip Hop 100% con produzioni taglienti e curate in ogni dettaglio, dal campionamento al master ogni singola traccia è stata lavorata analogicamente per ricreare il suono tipico dei dischi più iconici degli anni ’90. L’album vanta diverse collaborazioni illustri fra cui Esa, Maury B e due remix inediti di Dj Skizo e The Next One (disponibili solo nella versione fisica) Il disco nasce dall’esigenza dei due artisti di raccontare le proprie esperienze e le canzoni sono concepite come delle foto, dei ricordi in cui l’ascoltatore può perdersi e ritornare con la mente ai propri sulla base dell’esperienza contenuta nelle tracce. L’album è stato mixato e masterizzato presso il “Nost Studio” di Vobarno (BS) Si ringraziano tutte le persone che hanno collaborato a questo progetto dall’inizio alla fine: Snake, Camilla, Maury B, Esa aka El Presidente, Suni, Benji, Dj Skizo e The Next One per il loro contributo artistico – Esa per le registrazioni delle voci - Greta “Grace” Moret per la fotografia – Matteo “Nost” Nolli per mix e master – Miran Pinarbasi “Nemezy Arts” per le grafiche – Carlos “Metallo e Cemento” e Simone Pontini per i video – DessLab per la stampa delle tape e dei vinili – Finlogic Spa per la stampa delle etichette e tutte le persone che ci hanno supportato durante la realizzazione di “Memorie D’Inverno” TRUE KNOWLEDGE IS THE FUTURE
