Just curious if anyone else is excited to finally get a chance to listen to this.
I recall Thes sharing an Instagram story not too long ago with a folder titled as such? Kind of makes you wonder about some of the other announced PL70 releases that never materialized. Perhaps someday we will get to actually listen to "International Breaks".

To say I'm excited for/been eagerly awaiting this album would be a bit of an understatement.
I believe Thes mentioned this was going to be his Axelrod record at one point, making it a bit of a magnum opus (and the teasers certainly deliver on that front IMO). That being said I think he may have pushed the envelope as far as he could, most likely recording some AMAZING stuff, but possibly not quite being able to finish it or get it to the point he'd envisioned. I have absolute faith that if and when he (eventually) completes it it will have been worth the wait however and those last few % in particular will take it to a whole 'nother level. True art can't be rushed + perfection takes time.

Think it as some years ago now I mentioned the International Breaks thing on here. That's a project of mine - rare drum breaks from around the globe. Back when I was working with Thes, and helping out with PL70 releases 2012-2015, we were going to take my existing series and push it through PL70, along with some other ideas. At that time I had done 3 volumes, and the 4th included a bunch of breaks curated from Thes' collection.
I've now done 15 volumes - more info here - International Breaks
First 6 volumes on Vinyl also available here Redef Records
