London’s 4AD must have one of the strongest rosters of any indie label currently in existence. Over the last few years they’ve started getting in their acts to perform well recorded and filmed sessions for them. Now that they’ve collected up enough of these sessions they have decided to put out (what they believe are) the 10 best tracks on a vinyl release that will be limited to 1000 copies. 4AD Sessions 2008-2011 features many of their fantastic artists and will be released tomorrow. Get on it quickly because there will be no repress once it’s sold out, you can order it here.
The track list is below. You may notice that some of 4AD’s finest artsits (The National, St. Vincent) haven’t yet been in to record a session, so hopefully we’ll get another one of these in a little while.
4AD Sessions 2008-2011 features:
ARIEL PINK’S HAUNTED GRAFFITI – Menopause Man
BLONDE REDHEAD – Here Sometimes
TWIN SHADOW – Forget
