baleine 3000: the nap

A slice of international oddball rap from Baleine 3000, a group composed of Belgian producer Lawrence Le Doux, French DJ Afrojaws, and Japanese MC Illreme. The Nap features seven cuts of soft, dreamy beats, vinyl fuzz, and delicate verses that speak to hip-hop's universal appeal and ability to transcend boundaries. As Illreme puts it on The Nap, "the story is always over on the way. When does this story end?" Sleeve created on an analog typewriter in the VLEK workshop by Dimitri Runkkari. Hand-carved vinyl art by Jeff Ablezot (carved on side B of the master & duplicated).
