Omar - Brighter the Days - the Remixes (2lp) [LP]

Double vinyl LP pressing. Impressive Collective and BBE Music present Brighter The Days - The Remixes, a new collection built around Omar's epic 9th studio album. The past year has seen Omar on particularly strong form, including two sold-out US tours, standout appearances on NPR's 'Tiny Desk', BBC TV's 'Later with Jools Holland' and Channel 4's 'Sunday Brunch', whilst his guest appearances with various social media stars including DJ AG Online and collaboration with Donae'O on the viral hit 'Nights Like This' resulting in a growing younger audience. This collection draws together extraordinary reinterpretations from the Brighter The Days album, from a dream ticket of legendary and forward-thinking producers; namely Kenny Dope, Joe Claussell, DJ Spinna, Illa J and Super D & Maestro. Of Kenny Dope's remix of "Lovey Dovey" (with Raheem DeVaughn and Eric Roberson), Omar says that "you can definitely see people locking and popping to that one!", while he describes Joe Claussell's two versions of "There's Much Love In The World" as "simply epic".
