{"product_id":"game-winner-deluxe-edition-vinyl-ep","title":"Game Winner: Deluxe Edition Vinyl EP","description":"\u003cp\u003eJoey Dosik didn’t set out to make a conceptual mini album about\nbasketball. It was his first love before music and some of his earliest\nmemories are of attending Lakers games but he’d never thought to\nlook to the sport for inspiration. However, when Joey blew out his\nknee during his regular pick-up game and had to undergo\nreconstructive ACL surgery, he found himself confined to the couch,\nwatching a lot of television and waiting to resume his normal life. He\ngravitated toward basketball and when he started recording again he\nfound it seeping into his writing. The result is ‘Game Winner’, a brisk,\nemotive collection of songs loosely inspired by the language and lore\nof the game.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe common thread in the six songs - as well as the four bonus\ntracks - is musicality and song craft: the two pillars of Joey’s sound.\n“The most important thing is the song,” explains Joey. “Songwriting\nwon’t go out of style.” It’s that approach, one that thinks beyond\nstyle, that gives the title track its magic. Minimal and almost languid,\n‘Game Winner’ has a confidence that’s hard to place in time, an ease\nthat meets a buzzer-beater just as well as it meets a Sunday\nmorning. Basketball may have been Joey’s first love but the sport is\nalso the perfect metaphor for where he’s ended up musically, always\nstriving to stay timely and timeless, to bring deep, foundational\nelements in sync with innovation and imagination.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Recordstore","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49975214244082,"sku":"SC363LP","price":5.4,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0850\/1621\/5794\/files\/SharedImage-78963.jpg?v=1787636233","url":"https:\/\/recordstero.shop\/products\/game-winner-deluxe-edition-vinyl-ep","provider":"recordstero","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
