De La Soul "Clear Lake Audiotorium" E.P.
Available now on 12 inch vinyl in a sea green gel sleeve, CD and digitally 🌊
Originally pressed in 1994 as an exclusive promotional release for select DJs, Clear Lake Audiotorium has achieved near-mythical status among collectors. The album includes four tracks from De La Soul’s Buhloone Mindstate era, with two rare collaborations: “sh.Fe.Mc’s” featuring A Tribe Called Quest and “Stix & Stonz” with contributions from Tito of The Fearless Four, Grandmaster Caz, LA Sunshine of the Treacherous Three and Prince Whipper Whip. This limited-edition release is a chance for fans to own a piece of hip-hop history.






A real drag that all the LPs were sold out within a minute of my copy of the announcement email being sent.
This release is a gem. The fact that "sh.Fe.Mc’s" and "Stix & Stonz" are finally getting proper shine in this format is a blessing to the culture. De La has always balanced artistry with legacy, and this drop proves the timelessness of their vision. Salute to the whole Native Tongues family—still building bridges decades later.
