Adrian Younge is known for his unique tasteful and classic production on acclaimed releases from The Delfonics, Ghostface Killah and Kendrick Lamar along with various film scores. Younge has spent the last 20 years creating a museum quality production house; a studio created for the purpose of revitalizing his golden era without cutting corners: Linear Labs studios. It's an analog fortress, with no computers, and is touted as one of the best production houses in the world.
Adrian teamed up with The Drum Broker to capture his phenomenal use of vintage instrumentation, analog hardware and discrete recording equipment in a new pack called “Psych, Dark Soul, & Electronic Impressions”. This library is rare access into the audio stems of his bespoke world of meticulously crafted productions, curated for the sole purpose of sampling featuring Harpsichords, Rhodes, Glockenspiels, and more.
