*Some “pretty mind-blowing” unreleased music from Prince is on the horizon, estate adviser Troy Carter tells Variety.
While declining to reveal any further details about the recordings, Carter said that a treasure trove of material is “coming soon.”
“He was a guy who practically lived in a recording studio, and once we started going through [the unreleased material] we really started finding some gems,” Carter, who is also Spotify’s global head of creative services, said earlier this month. “I heard some music the other night that was pretty mind-blowing and we’re getting some stuff mixed right now. We’ve got great projects in the works that I’m excited to talk about.
“So the answer is yes, there will be unreleased Prince music coming soon,” he said, although he declined to specify which label might release the recordings.
As previously reported, the contents of Prince’s storied “vault” of unreleased music were moved to a climate-controlled Los Angeles storage facility from his Paisley Park compound outside Minneapolis last year, after some of the tapes were found to have deteriorated.
Warner Bros. released a long-delayed expanded edition of Prince’s most successful album, “Purple Rain,” last June that included a full album of previously unreleased material as well as a long out-of-print 1985 concert video, although that package was finalized before the artist’s death in April 2016.
