Astralwerks "Music In 20/20" Box Set
To celebrate their 20th anniversary as a record label, Astralwerks released a limited edition box set for Record Store Day back in April. After searching numerous record stores, I unfortunately couldn't manage to find a single one of the 1,250 sets for myself. But the musical Gods believe in second chances. Twenty years after the exact date of Astralwerks formation, the label collaborated with Insound to offer the remaining few copies to the public. I jumped on that opportunity like you wouldn't believe. My copy just arrived in the mail a few days ago (#465!!!) and it's an amazing anthology of Astralwerks massive catalog.
There are twenty flexi discs printed on a rainbow of colors. Each one is a song by a different artist and includes the original artwork. Some are hit singles, while others are unreleased rarities. The artists range from veterans such as The Chemical Brothers to the recent big names like Diamond Rings and David Guetta.
Hopefully some of you were able to snatch a copy, either on RSD or through Insound. As far as box sets go, Music In 20/20 is visually and sonically fantastic. Check out some more pics of the box set below.
