GET THE LUSCIOUS ACCOMPANYING 96-PAGE HARDBACK ARTBOOK OF ILLUSTRATIONS BY JEM HERE:
velocitypress.uk/product/kaptain-karnival-book/

Take yourself on a deep and colourful dub-funkijazzical journey through fantastical worlds and seductive beats, in the quest to discover the truth behind the galaxy's most elusive and mysterious icon, Kaptain Karnival.

Renowned artist and composer Jem 'Stone' Panufnik's sumptuous musical and visual feast takes us on a psychedelic voyage through ambient lushness, deep and throbbing electronica plus of course the kind of unique twisted funk, wonky disco and jazzy grooves the Finger Lickin' Records pioneer is famous for. 
 
Featuring some incredible guest musicians including Ben Castle (Quincy Jones, Radiohead, Hans Zimmer) and Dominic Glover (Primal Scream, Groove Armada, Incognito) it is a rich tapestry of musical styles and emotions.
 
As a visual accompaniment to the album there is an exquisite, richly-illustrated hardback art book depicting each track in the narrative. Simultaneously released by Velocity Press and available from most book stores, Jem's wild, surreal and highly original imagery adds a whole new dimension to the immersive experience.
