Papillon de Nuit: The Night Butterfly

Repress of God’s Prescriptions, Camille Doughty’s sole solo effort - a rare soul/gospel album that was originally released in 1978.A beautiful, supreme quality remaster of the original album, first released by the Gospel Roots label. It features her famous rendition of the traditional spiritual ‘Elijah Rock’ and several other standards, including ‘I Trust in God’, ‘It Don’t Cost Very Much’ and ‘I Asked the Lord’. Our third release is a wake-up call to those who have been touched by Doughty’s voice back in the day, as well as a beautiful introduction to new fans.

Mndsgn, pronounced ‘mind design’, is the stage name of experimental hip-hop artist Ringgo Ancheta. Gaining notoriety after his collaboration with Danny Brown on ‘Sweeney Song’, Mndsgn released his first solo album, entitled Breatharian, on the Fresh Selects imprint back in 2013. He has released a subsequent three follow up albums on Stones Throw Records (one of the labels affiliated with J Dilla before his death in 2006). His latest album, SNAX, makes for easy and laid-back listening, a soulful blend of muted jazz and hip hop inspired beats played out under positive refrains like ‘I got da vibe’.

First release of promising new label - heavy Nigerian boogie LP with that raw characteristic lo-fi feel - Nkono Teles on keys and Odion Iruoje on the production. Dope!!Some words from the label: Dig this way records is proud to present its first official reissue: a marvelous Nigerian disco boogie album by Peter Abdul - Get Down With Me. Impossible to find on the original EMI press is now finally back into the market for everybody to enjoy it and make the hips move! Originally released in 1984 it’s an outstanding experimentation of Nigerian disco boogie - heavily influenced by western artists - played by talented musician that follows with their monster cosmic sounds the tiny and strong voice of Peter Abdul in his only officially released LP. The luck of this work came from the collaboration with Nkono Teles at keyboards ; Sole at bass guitar; Ganiyu Bello , Emmanuel Akoko Jr. and Tolu Gayas as backup vocalists - arranged and produced by Odion Iruoje and assisted by some good engineers like Bayo Aro, Monday Oki and Edward Jatto. All together they created this insane disco- boogie LP. For the 2018 reissue, the audio was carefully restored by Colin Young - Liner notes that come with a interview and some unseen and raw original pictures of Peter Abdul back in the days- these photos are printed separately on tick quality paper insert (from a small studio of Milano called Legno). As Peter Abdul said: “Music to me it's a pure natural instinct, a natural gift which i grew to love so much” - I was lucky and pleased to collaborate with great artists like Nkono Teles, a Cameroon born mutli-instrumentalist and producer based in Nigeria; Ganiyu Bello, who came for a visit from London and joined me as a backup vocalist along with Emmanuel Akoko Jr.; and Tolu Gay – the woman vocalist and romantic flavor on “Baby I Love You”. Some great musicians played on the tracks, interested in making music with a talented teenager with a tiny voice – but one that sang to the beat and with a good sense of tonality. It was like a great adventure, and from that symbiosis, “Get Down With Me” was born. And fun: people started calling me the Michael Jackson of Nigeria at live shows, especially at the University of Ibadan, the Alfa Club and others. So many pretty girls wanting to win my heart.
