Nightmares On Wax announces 25th anniversary edition of classic album ‘Carboot Soul’

Nightmares On Wax has announced plans to release a 25th anniversary edition of classic album Carboot Soul, which will be released on 20 April.

The limited-edition release comes with an additional 7″ featuring two tracks, Les Nuits (Hip Hop Reprise) and Keep On (Chill Mix), featuring hip hop legends De La Soul.

The release will also coincide with a live Carboot Soul tour, which will take in a number of European cities, including two shows at the Royal Festival Hall, Southbank Centre, London.

Commenting on the release, Nightmares On Wax, aka George Evelyn, said, “I’m really, really excited about this reissue of the 25th anniversary of Carboot Soul, it feels great to celebrate this album. It all comes in new packaging with a re-vamp of its original artwork which was done by Zulu Monk / Monkey Lee and it comes with a bonus 7-inch which has an unreleased hip hop version of Les Nuits as well as an unreleased track which is a version of the De La Soul Track I recorded at the same time as recording this album.

“The name Carboot Soul comes from me always going to car boot sales and flea markets digging for records. Then I would sample these records, make these tracks, and then go back to the car to see if the mixes were right. So it was like a full cycle of the music and the creation process which is why it’s called Carboot Soul. So it’s from the car boot, to the soul! Let’s celebrate!”
