Downtempo producer George Evelyn aka Nightmares on Wax turns 25 this year, as does Warp, the revered label that counts his 1991 debut A Word of Science: The First and Final Chapter as one of its first releases. To celebrate the anniversary, Evelyn has announced N.O.W is the Time, a compilation of standout tracks from his career, out June 16th. The full track list has yet to surface, but Evelyn has given us more to drool over in the meantime; he’s announced a five month tour, his biggest ever, taking a live band through Europe as well as stopping over for an extensive visit to the U.S. If that’s still not enough for you, the album will be exquisitely packaged as a box set, with the double album being accompanied by two vinyl LPs featuring unheard rarities and remixes.
