In keeping with a promise and an ideal set at the launch of the label in 2006, Decibel NYC Recordings is proud to release the second biennial retrospective compilation from our catalog, showcasing tracks released between 2008 and 2010. These last 2 years have been marked by a deliberate focus on growth of the assets of the label, primarily our artists, producers and remixers, specially in developing their skills, crafting their unique sounds and talent, and refining their label identity. While we've only added 4 or 5 new artists to our roster, our core group saw a marked increase in the level and quality that was demanded of them as well as an individual push for them to hone their sounds, work on bigger projects, expand their fan base, solidify their web presence, broaden their avenues for publication and ultimately begin conceptualizing and working on individual full-length albums.
All this work - done by our tireless A&R department - is evident in the tracks featured on this second compilation, appropriately named "We Are Decibel NYC - vol II", which showcases the growth, the maturity and the strength of our chosen musical geniuses: from the opening track (You Can Do Better) which symbolically refers back to our launch in '06 to the unbelievable growth of our Portugal jewel Noxxer, to the introduction of Lou Peoples, Don Davenport, Digable7, DBell, to the resounding drumming of our Canadian pride Super Agent 33 to the ever-present and ground-breaking Undah-Dub. This compilation is a tribute to the effort and dedication of our entire staff, a gift to our fans and listeners, a road map to what's ahead for us in the near future.
