Better known as one half of 4hero and a co-founder of Reinforced Records, Marc Mac has spent decades connecting electronic production, hip-hop, jazz and soul. This album applies that experience to a distinctive form of audio documentary, combining original beats with speeches, interviews, broadcasts and historical recordings.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe project is designed to entertain and inform at the same time. Rather than using historical voices as decoration, Marc builds each beat around the source material so that rhythm, sequencing and narrative develop together. The sound is rooted in boom bap, jazz and soul, with the compact structure of a carefully assembled mixtape. Tracks such as “Reason \u0026amp; Sanity”, “Brand New Thinkin”, “Love Of Self” and “Re-Evaluate” invite further listening and further research, while maintaining a strong musical flow.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAcross twenty-two pieces, the album moves through questions of identity, resistance, self-knowledge and social change. Short transitions sit beside longer statements such as “That’s What It Is”, giving the sequence the pace of a radio documentary shaped by a producer’s ear. “Afro Pride Soldier”, “Revisionist (Walk On)”, “G.I. Resistance” and “Soul Transformation” demonstrate the series’ central idea: history is not presented as a distant subject, but as something active within the present.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eMessage From Soulville forms one part of a six-volume body of work that began with It’s Right to Be Civil and continued through Extend the Knowledge, Generation X, All Power To The People and The Invisible Soldiers. Together these records operate as a living archive told through beats and voices. This repress is housed in a weighted card sleeve, shrink-wrapped and pressed on 180g black vinyl. It is a compelling release for listeners of conscious hip-hop, sample-based production, jazz-inflected beats and independent Black historical documentation.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe pressing preserves the full twenty-one-track sequence and gives the album’s documentary flow the uninterrupted physical format it deserves, encouraging focused listening from the opening statement through the final reflection.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Omniverse Records","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":58384422404470,"sku":"OMNIVLP03RP","price":24.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0568\/6450\/6005\/files\/OMNIVLP03RP_5df3a777-9480-453f-84d1-62cc580947a6.jpg?v=1785696894","url":"https:\/\/www.stickyblacktarmac.com\/products\/marc-mac-message-from-soulville-lp-black-vinyl","provider":"Sticky Black Tarmac","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
