THEO PARRISH - First Floor Part 1 (Reissue) - 2LP - 'Smokey' Colour Vinyl [JAN 23]

2LP - Limited Edition 'Smokey' Colour Vinyl with OBI strip (Part 1 - 2025 Reissue). 

Originally released in 1998 "First Floor” is Detroit/Chicago auteur Theo Parrish’s debut album. Released on vinyl in two parts for maximum playability; the raw bluesy, soulful offbeat grooves have long since buried themselves deep under the skin of the house community.

Showcasing Theo’s innovative use of drum programming and effects its uniquely loose but taut knit of minimalist elements worked to maximal, hypnotic effect have solidified its reputation as a contemporary classic and served as a corner stone for Theo’s truly legendary status.

"First Floor” is one of those albums that has transcended generic borders to influence heads of all stripes with its unmistakable soul-nuzzling texture and groove. Essential.
