Description

Originally released in 2002, Daylight EP was the follow-up to Aesop Rock s critically-acclaimed Labor Days album, a cult classic released only six months prior. The EP was built around it s titular opening song, Daylight, one of the standout tracks from Labor Days, and continued expanding upon the range and depth of Aesop s multi-talented gifts for writing and producing. In addition to the title track, Daylight EP also included it s counterpoint, Night Light, an alternate version in concept whose paraphrased lyrics simultaneously refer back to- and stand in stark opposition to- the original s, over darker, more menacing production. The tracklist for Daylight EP boasted seven songs, although there was a hidden track as well making a total of eight, that collectively featured production by Blockhead, El-P, and Aesop Rock himself, as well as a guest verse from Blueprint.

At the time of it s initial release, Daylight EP was only offered in CD and digital formats, while the vinyl was stripped back, available only as a three-song 12 single. Now, Rhymesayers Entertainment is pleased to present the complete EP on vinyl for the first time ever, pressed on two-color side A B effect orange & blue vinyl to complement the original artwork!
