Now-AgainRecords—HipHop
FOUNDED 2000 · LOS ANGELES, US
ABOUT
Egon Alapatt founded Now-Again Records in Los Angeles in 2000 with a mission to archive and reissue overlooked funk, soul, psych, and global music. The label's releases — which have documented everything from obscure Indonesian funk to unreleased Ethiopian jazz — operate at the intersection of serious archival scholarship and practical utility for sample-based producers. Now-Again's releases are consistently among the most sought-after reissues in the crate-digging community.
PRODUCER NOTES
Now-Again releases are invaluable for producers seeking deeply obscure source material — the label specialises in records that have never been reissued and are otherwise near-impossible to find. Every Now-Again release represents documented proof that there is always more to dig.
