Shabaka - Of the Earth (Vinyl)
Multi-instrumentalist, producer, and artist Shabaka (a.k.a Shabaka Hutchings) announces his third solo album Of The Earth, his first solo album to be released via his own label 'Shabaka Records’, and an album entirely written and produced by Hutchings himself.
Of The Earth sees Shabaka return to his signature saxophone sound, alongside accomplished electronics and production, as well as traditional woodwind and percussion instruments from around the world, a combination indicative of Hutchings’ diverse talents and the overall sound on Of The Earth.
Hutchings is highly regarded for his work with The Comet Is Coming, Sons of Kemet, Shabaka and the Ancestors, and from his two most recent solo projects 'Perceive its Beauty, Acknowledge its Grace', and 'Afrikan Culture’. As a musician he has also worked with a wealth of prestigious artists such as Andre 3000, Floating Points, Mulatu Astatke, The Sun Ra Arkestra, Lianne La Havas, Saul Williams, and more.
Of The Earth is released on limited edition cornflower blue vinyl with an insert featuring Hutchings’ own artwork.

PRE-ORDERS
Flying Nun only debits your account for a pre-order when it has actually landed in our store. We believe this is fair because supply can often be unreliable - availability and release dates frequently change without notice. Pre-order with Flying Nun and you can cancel any time prior to the product arriving at our store.
OUT OF STOCK ITEMS
Flying Nun only make products available to purchase on our website when they are actually physically held at the store (except pre-orders). Vinyl availability from all local and international suppliers changes on a daily/hourly basis. Therefore, it is not possible to guarantee an online order for many items not currently held in stock.
SHIPPING
Flying Nun offers free shipping in Aotearoa New Zealand on orders over $80. We have record stores in both Auckland and Wellington and will ship your record from whichever store is nearest. We aim to pack send your order next business day. Pick ups are also available from both stores.
