The opening bars of Darkest Light are instantly recognisable to funk and hip-hop heads. Originally released on the Lafayette Afro-Rock Band’s Malik album, the track went on to become a defining hip hop motif, sampled by Jay-Z, Public Enemy, Wreckx-N-Effect and many more.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOn the flip, Hihache emerged as a firm favourite as hip-hop culture exploded in the 1980s. Taken from the group’s iconic Soul Makossa album, its larger-than-life drum break became a foundational sample, most famously appearing in Biz Markie’s Nobody Beats The Biz, among countless others. Two essential cuts from a hugely influential group, now pressed in a strictly limited run of just 1000 copies on black 7” vinyl for Record Store Day Black Friday 2026.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eTRACKLIST:\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/b\u003eA.
