KAY-DEE RECORDS, the online store and label owned and operated by Kenny Dope, takes things to the next level with the debut of its “Book Series.” Kenny’s vision for Kay-Dee’s first book was to create a premium set with a mix of well-known and never-before-seen “Wild Style” photos, in addition to liner notes detailing the stories behind the music of one of his favorite films. Teaming up with GET ON DOWN, the record label and online boutique dedicated to presenting and celebrating music with unique packaging and exclusive extras, the two have come together to release this impressive and historically-significant musical trophy item:
The Wild Style Breakbeats
The book features the following elements:
• 13 songs total, spread out over seven “big hole” 45s (each with a different label color)
• Re-EQed audio with re-edited / extended audio versions of each song, modified from original source tapes
• Extensive liner notes in a 28-page book, including dozens of images – from “Wild Style” director Charlie Ahearn, among other sources – as well as interviews with Fab 5 Freddy, Chris Stein and GrandWizzard Theodore
• The 14th side (the B-side of the seventh 45) features unique etchings with different “Wild Style” graphics
• Unique “Kay-Dee Casebook” packaging – all seven 7-inches fit into a book as self-contained pages
