Color Of Vinyl Subject To Change Without Notice / Call To Confirm Colored Copies Are Still Available

Park Hye Jin issues her highly-anticipated debut album, Before I Die on Ninja Tune. The record – entirely written, produced and performed by the South Korean-born and now LA-based producer, rapper, singer, and DJ – follows the release of her hugely successful How Can I EP and comes on the heels of a string of collaborations, working with the likes of Clams Casino & Take A Daytrip ("Y Don't U"), Blood Orange ("Call Me (Freestyle)") and Nosaj Thing ("Clouds"), plus a remix from Galcher Lustwerk ("Can You"). Lead single and opener "Let's Sing Let's Dance" is a wistful dance track that places Hye Jin's mantra-like vocals over piano keys and rumbling bass. Elsewhere on the record she continues to expand her sonic palette, drawing on a range of influences that take in electronic, rap/hip-hop and downtempo sensibilities to present the most complete vision yet of her sound. Colored vinyl LP in a matte varnished 12" sleeve with spine and paper inners.
