Product Information
In November 2002, long before Madlib and MF DOOM had finished Madvillainy, the first demo sequence of the album leaked online. The tracks contained early vocal cuts from DOOM, recorded and quickly mixed in Los Angeles at Madlib’s Bomb Shelter studio. The leak spread quickly across the internet and into the desktop computers, mp3 libraries, and CD players of fans around the world. The tracks may have been unfinished, but it was clear that this was a hip-hop album unlike any other.
Now, to celebrate 20 years since the original release of Madvillainy, the Demos are released on vinyl for the first time. The vinyl is mastered by Dave Cooley – the original Madvillainy mastering engineer – and includes an insert with Eric Coleman’s contact sheets from the Madvillainy cover shoot.
