JAZZ IS DEAD & LINEAR LABS MEMBERSHIP
Membership
Jazz Is Dead has partnered with its sister label Linear Labs to launch a new membership program. Members will receive every new release from each label (averaging six albums per calendar year). Receive a myriad of merchandise, double LPs, test presses and dub plates hand-cut by Adrian Younge himself.
The Jazz Is Dead record label, co-founded by Adrian Younge and Ali Shaheed Muhammad, creates music with a unique sensibility: It aims at creating new records for crate diggers, alongside the legendary musical maestros that shaped the sound of yesterday. Linear Labs is a label where Younge’s cinematic and psychedelic soul creations have become the sample source for some of the most celebrated hip hop producers around the world.
Both record labels share a passion for top-tier hi-fi analog recordings as both exclusively record at Adrian Younge’s Linear Labs studio. Each label will release at least three albums per year, giving members access to six or more albums annually.
