A few weeks ago, we shared news of Detroit band Will Sessions‘ plans of releasing a new album, The ELmatic Instrumentals. But before you go out and cop that on the 27th (the most diesel release date in recent memory), they’re giving out a free album to give you some background on the crew. Will Sessions have previously produced live shows for fellow Motowners Guilty Simpson, Phat Kat, and Black Milk. With this free LP, Real Sessions, you get 10 selected live recordings from those shows featuring the 8-piece band recreating beats from Madlib, J Dilla, Black Milk, Mr. Porter, and Nick Speed (w/ DJ Dez on the cuts). The download also comes with an 18 page booklet – that’s a lot of gems for free, get it after the jump.

Will Sessions have established themselves as one of Detroit’s must-see live bands, with a varied musical output that reflects their city’s roots.

After cutting their teeth as the house band at the infamous Motor City Funk Night parties, the band went on to release a series of singles on the FNR label, as well as LPs like the instant-classic Elmatic, Kindred, and Mixtakes video/album series.

In addition to their own work, the group is known for collaborations with the likes of Amp Fiddler, Mayer Hawthorne, Slum Village, Elzhi, Black Milk, Phat Kat, Guilty Simpson, Eminem and Slaughter House, KRS-One, Danny Brown, DJ Dez/Andrez, Jeremy Ellis, Wendell Harrison, Toots & the Maytals, and Griz.
