Background
In 1993 N2Deep began recording what would eventually become Unreleased Game 1993: The Lost Album. The album was planned as a follow-up to their successful album debut, Back to the Hotel.[1] Unfortunately before the project was released or even finished, the album masters were stolen from the studio during a break-in. After losing the nearly finished album and much of the studio's recording equipment, Profile proceeded to drop N2Deep from the label. Almost a decade later, the masters were recovered by the police. In 2002 the album was finally remixed and released on 40 Ounce Records.[2][3] The finished project was subsequently titled: Unreleased Game 1993: The Lost Album. Some of the verses that appear on Unreleased Game 1993: The Lost Album were used on what became N2Deep's official second album, 24-7-365.
