Event Description
Hello Fellow Listeners,
I hope you’re doing great despite the lack of sunlight. But if you found yourself in the grips of blue I have just the medicine: a great record full of hope and good vibes. This is going to be a last one for 2013 and an awesome one indeed.
Let me introduce you to “3 years, 5 months and 2 days in the life of” by Arrested Development.
It is an alternative hip-hop record that was released by this little known band from Atlanta, U.S., in 1992. Rooted in the genre’s beginnings and with its message of peace and love, it differed greatly from the gangsta rap that came out of L.A. and New York of the time. It became a success and sparked a huge interest in southern hip-hop. Voted best album of the year in The Village Voice critics poll, till this day it has hip-hop lovers raving about it.

If you’re not a fan of hip-hop, give this one a try nevertheless – you might find yourself to be a convert.
Entry is free, but donations will be collected to cover the cost of the vinyl. With the donation you will automatically enter the raffle where the prize is the original 1992 pressing of the record.
Doors open at 20:00 and we’ll start at 21:00 sharp.
Hope to see you at multilayerladen on December 9th!
