Brooklyn percussion explosion Aa, spoken "big 'a' little 'a'," will release their newest album on April 24. The record, titled gAame, will come out on Gigantic Music as a CD/DVD package and on Deleted Art as an LP/DVD.

The DVD features videos by Sto, Synt.Tofs, Lev & Whitney, Christoph Steger, Michael Bell-Smith (of Professor Murder), Jon Schwartz, UMeanCompetitor, Rop "Ropstyle" Vasquez (of Semiautomatic), Billy Pavone, and members of Aa, all supplemented with plenty of live footage.
