Music Enjoy The Experience: Homemade Records – 2xLP

As a companion to the book of the same name, Sinecure Books has dropped this compilation of tracks drawn from the records featured in the book.

If you’re not familiar, Enjoy The Experience: Homemade Records 1958-1992 is the largest collection of American private press vinyl ever amassed and presented, and features over 1,000 reproductions of the cover art of self released titles from 1958-1992.

When putting together this compilation they obviously had a lot of material to draw from. There’s plenty of tweaked out folk, home experiments, psychedelic disco and underground funk featured here. They definitely took a liking to the stranger side of the home recording scene with picks from the likes of Gary Wilson (of Stones Throw fame) and Stephen David Heitkotter with “Cadillac Woman.” Make sure to get a taste of Cleo McNett’s “Snap” which was sampled by DJ Shadow for “Why Hip Hop Sucks In ’96.”

Enjoy The Experience is an awesome compilation that takes you on a comprehensive tour of the American home recording scene.

2LP comes with extensive liner notes.
