Uncommon Records has now begun a 45 RPM imprint label called Uncommon Restoration. Headed by Uncommon Nasa and Short Fuze, the labels goal is to dig in the back crates of Uncommon Records (and beyond) to deliver forgotten masterpieces on a new and incredible format. There was no better place to start then Tracy Jones’ seminal Humancloud Abandonment project. Originally released on Uncommon Records in 2008, in 2021 it returns. It’s now been re-mastered including instrumentals and a new Uncommon Nasa Remix of the title track - re-introduced digitally through all streaming services including Spotify on January 22nd. 

Uncommon Restoration steps in with a limited edition 45RPM 7” single (now available for pre-order) featuring two tracks from the release, d.d.b. b/w the title track of the album, Humancloud Abandonment. At Uncommon Restoration, we believe in second chances and will be granting them to many songs and many artists as we grow this imprint over time. We’re honored to take on this role in this art form and doubly honored to have Tracy Jones to kick this off. Pre-Orders will land at your doorstep on February 12th, only 100 pieces were pressed and slid into crispy orange sleeves.
