{"product_id":"larry-heard-alien-vinyl-2lp","title":"Larry Heard: Alien Vinyl 2LP","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eRare transmissions from Chicago house pioneer Larry Heard repressed!\u003c\/i\u003e As the creator of such influential and timeless house anthems such as \"Can U Feel It,\" \"Mystery Of Love,\" and countless others, \u003ca href=\"http:\/\/turntablelab.mom\/search?q=larry+heard\" target=\"_blank\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eLarry Heard\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e (aka \u003cb\u003eMr. Fingers, Fingers Inc., The It, Gherkin Jerks\u003c\/b\u003e, etc.) hardly needs any introduction. His work is the stuff of legend, and though I consider myself pretty well-versed in his output, this reissue came along and I realized the man has a plethora of material I haven't even gotten to yet! \u003ci\u003eAlien\u003c\/i\u003e takes its title from the classic \u003cb\u003eRidley Scott\u003c\/b\u003e film of the same name. It appears Heard was so into the film that in 1996, he decided to do his own soundtrack of sorts as his 3rd solo full length. As expected, the results are incredible - a master work of spaced out ambience and deep space house from the furthest corners of the galaxy (though far and away from the original \u003ci\u003eAlien\u003c\/i\u003e OST by light years). It's not exactly as dark as one would think for something inspired by \u003cb\u003eAlien\u003c\/b\u003e. In fact, listening to chilled out tracks like \"Two Journeys\" or \"Cosmology Myth,\" you can almost imagine Ripley making peace with the alien or playing friendly with a face hugger. None the less, a awesome listen all the way through from one of the greatest to ever do it.
