The Vinyl Factory have collaborated with Theaster Gates' Black Madonna Press, Chicago Sinfonietta’s Community and Public Programs and Urban Gateway’ Street Level to present the Gimme Shelter mixtape showcasing Chicago's up and coming musical talent through narrative storytelling in hip-hop and classical music.
Gimme Shelter takes inspiration from the 1969 hit by Rolling Stones, capturing the sociopolitical climate of uprisings in the 60's amidst the Vietnam War. This mixtape explores the impact of the pandemic on notions of shelter and safety in Chicago and contemporary social conditions.
Featuring Street Level Youth Media participants DJ Aced Spade, Draii Blac, Marko Stat$, Nasa, Young Conscious, guest artist Roy Kinsey, producer Mike Jones, and Chicago Sinfonietta orchestra members Karla Galva, Seth Pae and Edith Yokley.
