Don't Sleep Records are back with a new instrumental project which will be available on Limited Edition 12" LP in April 2023. 

"We're thrilled to present our first-ever compilation "Don't Sleep Records: The Instrumentals Volume One". This collection features a blend of our most popular records and personal favorites, including some slept-on beats that deserve a second chance to shine. 

These tracks represent the diverse range of sounds and styles that have shaped the unique sonic fingerprint of Don't Sleep Records over our ten-year history. From jazzy, soulful tunes to hard-hitting boom bap and soulful bangers, this compilation offers something for every discerning listener. 

We're excited to share this collection with our fans and we hope you'll enjoy it as much as we've enjoyed putting it together." - courtesy of Don't Sleep Records

Don't Sleep Records - Original Demos & Unreleased Tracks

"Every emcee I've worked with will tell you there's a 50/50 chance I try to change the beat on any track we record together. Here's a collection of 20 tracks with their original beats that ultimately got cut from the album and swapped for something else. Also included are a few unreleased joints that got scrapped altogether. Some of them I'm not sure why. Give it a listen and hear the original flows as they were intended before I went in and tampered with them. 

This was a dope trip down memory to go back and listen to the OG versions of some of our best records. It was a fun mixtape to put together and it features every member of the Don't Sleep Records roster. Hope you enjoy. " - Love, Phoniks
