Premium Commemorative Box
Designed by Errol F. Richardson, this box captures the original spirit and style of these albums’ original, DIY cassette releases with its distinctive use of type and texture. Each artist involved in this Anthology contributed thoughts to the packaging and art direction.

How Was The Audio Sourced?

The masters for this lo-fi, cassette-based movement were often just that: cassettes themselves. In many, if not all, instances, the original masters have been lost, but Now-Again Records searched far and wide for the best iterations of the music within The Story of Memphis Rap. Restored and remastered by Jason Bitner, and with lacquers cut by Cicely Balston at AIR Mastering, these albums are presented at their trunk-rattling best.

Our accompanying podcast features interviews with some of the artists on the box, telling their own story of Memphis rap. Find it on streaming services when your Anthology ships, and listen to each corresponding episode as you make your way through the records in your box.

FAQs

Bir sorunuz mu var?

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 March 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.
Yes, shipping is available in 16 countries in addition to the U.S. (view all FAQs for more details). For international customers, customs and duties will be due upon receipt.
Afterpay is an interest-free financing option that allows you to make four bi-weekly (every two weeks) installment payments rather than one upfront payment. If you choose Afterpay at checkout, you will be redirected to the Afterpay site to create an account and to complete your payment. You won’t be charged any interest or fees, as long as your payments are made on time. At this time, Afterpay is only available for customers in the United States.
To get the Member Price, you must be an active VMP Member for our monthly record subscription (and make sure you are logged in).
