The Making of Adventures in Counter-Culture Book

After a five-year musical journey, critically acclaimed mc/producer and Soul Position frontman Blueprint, returned in 2011 with his highly-anticipated sophomore solo album Adventures in Counter-Culture.  While praised by critics and considered his finest release to date, the story behind Blueprint’s musical departure went largely untold until now.  The Making of Adventures in Counter-Culture sees Blueprint emerge as an author, vividly recounting the stories that inspired him to create such a unique piece of art.  His writing leaves nothing unanswered – taking the reader through the creative process behind every song on the album – and describing in rich detail the circumstances that lead to his social commentary, personal transformation, and genre-defying album, Adventures in Counter-Culture.

Blueprint also enlisted the talents of acclaimed artist Adam “ILLUS” Wallenta to provide beautiful illustrations for each chapter of the book, making The Making of Adventures in Counter Culture a necessary companion-piece for fans of the album.
