Afrodisiac stands as one of the most visionary and genre‑defying albums of the 1990s, blending shoegaze textures with deep R&B roots, alternative soul and atmospheric rock. Formed by twins Daniel and Danny Chavis, The Veldt carved out a sound that was years ahead of its time — a swirling fusion of shimmering guitars, velvet‑rich vocals and hypnotic rhythms. Produced by Ray Shulman, the 1994 album has since become a cult classic, praised for its bold experimentation and emotional depth.
This deluxe 2LP edition marks the album’s first appearance on vinyl, presented on 180‑gram audiophile vinyl with an insert and expanded clarity. The set includes two essential remixes of “Soul In A Jar” — one by The Jesus and Mary Chain, drenched in their signature haze, and another by Diamond D, whose rugged Guitar Mix reframes the track with a hip‑hop edge. A landmark release for fans of shoegaze, dream‑soul and alternative rock.
