Melting Records is pleased to snag and reissue for the second time the rare album Five Finger Discount from Budapest-based producer Nándor Kürtössy, known here as Savages.

Originally released in 2008 in a limited fashion and only on compact disc, the album has been sought after by hip hop and trip hop heads alike. Melting Records has now issued this classic album for the second time on vinyl and is ready to give these tracks the wide audience they deserve. The current press version includes full versions and track list plus 2 bonus tracks, featuring Astrid Engberd, Vono Box & DJ Globe.


Nándor Kürtössy is a prolific producer, behind many projects like Kovacs, Savages y Suefo, and Vega Ass, and is also the founder of his own Hungarian electronic music label, Mana Mana Records. Five Finger Discount was Nándor’s first release, born from the previous few years of sessions creating tracks for himself and his friends. Encouraged to collect these cuts onto an album, Savages was created and this remarkable album revealed. Its legend has grown since the initial release with some considering Five Finger Discount a classic of eastern European hip hop culture.
