In celebration of the 20th anniversary of Non Phixion’s seminal LP, The Future Is Now, Uncle Howie Records is pleased to announce the release of an acapella version of the album for the first time! Comprised of group members ILL Bill, Lord Goat (f/k/a Goretex), Sabac Red and DJ Eclipse, The Future Is Now remains the group’s sole full length effort, garnering much acclaim among both critics and fans alike. Considered by many as an underground classic, TFIN boasts a production dream team that includes DJ Premier, Pete Rock and Large Professor, with additional production supplied by JuJu of The Beatnuts, as well as group affiliate Necro, Dave 1 of Chromeo and T-Ray. But it’s the production on this release that’s absent from this version, as producers, remixers and deejays the world over will for the first time have access to these previously vaulted acapellas, allowing you to flex your creative ingenuity. To boot, what makes this acapella release all the more special, is that the LP jacket will feature an overhauled version of the right half of the original mural illustrated by Mear One. Why just the right half you ask? Well Uncle Howie Records will also be releasing an instrumental version of the album for the first time—also as a 2XLP—which will feature the left half of the mural, making this a true collector’s edition to reel in the milestone! • First time ever that an acapella version of the album has been made available! • Will make for a desired production tool amongst deejays and remixers, alike. • When purchased with the instrumental version, both album covers will form an overhauled version of the classic Mear One designed mural, making this a true collector’s piece.
