VMP ANTHOLOGY

Berättelsen om Impulse!

Introducing VMP Anthology: The Story of Impulse!, en åtta-album resa genom katalogen av ett av de mest viktiga jazzskivbolagen någonsin drömda upp av skivproducenter. Etablerat som ett sätt att utmana status quo inom jazz-LP:s, kartlade Impulse! evolutionen av jazz under 60-talet, och fångade alla dess olika strängar, såväl som dess finaste kompositörer och utövare.

This grouping of records from Impulse!’s catalog suggests its range, its center and its corners. They cross-reference each other in aims and influences. Taken together, they do not only tell a story about the label’s significance in its own time, the sort of narrative jazz critics have used for 60 years; they also tell a story about what was not deemed significant to jazz in its own time, as well as what the label came to mean for listeners long afterward.

How Was The Audio Sourced?

For the seventh, Karma, the master tapes were digitized and supplemented with high quality digital sources, and the eighth, Ptah, The El Daoud, is mastered from the highest quality digital masters.

VMP Anthology is the vinyl box set, reinvented. It aims to use music to tell a story, and gives space for lots of listening, learning, and conversation along the way.
VMP started as a record of the month club in 2013 and has expanded into an online record store and magazine.
Shipping is free in the U.S. and $30 internationally. Records will be sent in one shipment. Orders are expected to ship in Summer 2024. Timeline is subject to change due. We will notify you of any shipping updates.
We created VMP Anthology for people who recognize that every album has a deep story to tell. By breaking up the albums into 4 weeks, we give you space to truly listen and absorb each individual recording, listen to the podcast and soak it in. Of course, this is just a suggested cadence!
Nope! We built VMP Anthology as a way for all fans to experience music more deeply, and VMP membership is not required.
