DJ DEVASTATE - In Recollection: A Dual Label Anthology (2012-2018) (Purple/Musta

"To honour the life and art of the late DJ Devastate, Coalmine Records is proud to team up with the Swedish artist’s native label, Counterweight Records, on this very special Record Store Day 2018/Black Friday release. The Swedish-born deejay and producer passed away at the young age of 35 years old in March 2018 and left a huge hole in the hearts of his friends, his family, and his fans. If there’s any consolation, it’s that we have his incredible art left with us to remember him by, and we and Counterweight couldn’t be more excited to share this eight-track vinyl release that showcases his immense skill set. On the Coalmine side, you’ll find four of our favorite tracks featuring the talents of Devastate. They include his turntablist exhibition on the Max I Million remix of “Perfect Timing” by C.L. Smooth & Skyzoo, and his head-nodding, funky production on El Da Sensei’s straight-fire “Show Stoppa.” You’ll also find J57’s fresh remix of “Show Stoppa,” in addition to Create & Devastate’s hard-nosed “Most Confident” with Wildchild & MED. Counterweight’s side is equally as fly, boasting the Create & Devastate-featured “I Rap Black” from heavyweights Chuck D, Bishop Lamont & Mykill Miers.
