Starship 27 Vol. 2: Take Off

VINYL FORMAT. In 2009, an album emerged out of nowhere like a UFO sighting called Starship 27. The album, curated by drummer, producer, and DJ, J-1, featured an assortment of West Coast beat producers. Shortly after the album's release, the eclectic Texas label, iNsect Records, got in contact with J-1 and struck up a conversation which eventually led to Starship 27 Vol. 2 being released via iNsect.

This time around on Vol. 2, we see the list of tracks and producers expand including music by Dam-Funk, Dibia$e, P.U.D.G.E., Devonwho, and Houseshoes to name only a few. With Starship 27 Vol. 2, J-1 becomes the curatorial captain guiding the spacecraft on its voyage.

Stay tuned ya'll..."
