K Records Brings All Your Friend’s Friends November 11th

K Records Releasing Hip Hop Compilation
All Your Friend’s Friends on 11/11
ft. Seminal Northwest MCs & Samples from the K Catalog

Olympia-based label K has announced the release of All Your Friend’s Friends, a hip hop compilation produced entirely off of samples pulled from the legendary label’s catalog. Featuring 30 seminal Northwest MCs, along with a host of hidden talent from Olympia, WA, the album will be available digitally & in stores on November 11th. It will be accompanied by a mini-documentary of the same name, available later this month.

Producer Smoke M2D6 deconstructs the classic lo-fi garage soul sound of the iconic label, artfully rearranging it over a thick foundation of classic breaks, 808’s, and heavy bass. For an early taste of the compilation, you can stream & share one of Xperience’s contributions, “Evolve Away,” via Soundcloud. You can also watch a brand new trailer for the All Your Friend’s Friends documentary — which takes an in-depth look at the conception and making of the album through interviews with a handful of artists, including Seattle legend Macklemore — here. This particular clip features K’s Calvin Johnson discussing the thought process behind the compilation.
