We’re thrilled to honor the extraordinary talents of multi-instrumentalist Omar Rodríguez-López, with a breathtaking vinyl box set. Spanning over two decades, his solo works have touched the hearts of generations.

From Jazz to Prog, Latin to Alternative, Electronica to Classical, his music knows no bounds. Today, we’re excited to announce this limited edition collection of 57 albums, including two previously unreleased records, and 31 albums on vinyl for the first time. Each record is pressed on black, recycled vinyl, and the cover artworks have been lovingly recreated to preserve the essence of the original releases.

The Amor de Frances box set, comprising four high-quality boxes with stunning design, becomes a work of art when combined with The Clouds Hill Tapes Pt. 1-3. The spines form the silhouette of Omar Rodríguez-López himself.

Join us on this musical odyssey starting October 30th for pre-orders at https://gtly.to/0DC4NcNty!
