This was the earliest incarnation of the  Solesides collective. Partially by design, and partially  out of necessity, Latyrx—and the Solesides crew as a  whole—became trailblazers.  Lyrics Born Remembers, “We really wanted to  explore. New styles, new subject matter, new textures,  new vocabulary. It came down to even wanting to do  words in the English language that you had never  heard in a rap song before. It was all about pushing.”  This double LP edition features the entire A and B side  from the original Muzappers Mixes vinyl release along  with a second LP containing material not found on the  original issue including the cuts “Storm Warning”, “The  Wreckoning”, “Watch Out” and “Ocho Puntos.” As an  extra special feature, the D side rounding things out  with an untitled and unreleased bonus cut.
