Captain Planet is releasing the classic mixtape-style Mystery Trip Vol. 1 — a cassette tape crafted out of a batch of vinyl samples from around the globe and inspired by Madlib's "Medice Show" series. For Mystery Trip Vol. 1, obscure vinyl rips were injected with a heavy dose of original production from Captain Planet, creating an entirely new piece of work that touches on sounds from Senegal, Jamaica, Ghana, Puerto Rico, Peru, Brazil, Italy, Korea, Guadeloupe, and Zimbabwe.

The limited-edition cassettes come with a free digital download of the separate tracks/edits, along with the full digi-mix — you can even grab an exclusive hand-painted Walkman for a few more bucks. Stream Captain Planet's excellent 45-minute digital mixtape below. Buy Mystery Trip Vol. 1 out now from Bastard Jazz Recordings.
