Renowned UK label Anjunadeep will be releasing the tenth installment of their chart-topping annual compilation series on February 22, 2019, Anjunadeep 10. The album will be mixed by label co-founder and A&R James Grant and globe-trotting Bristolian DJ Jody Wisternoff. Watch and listen to the official trailer below:
2018 was a landmark year for the label. Popular releases from Yotto and Cubicolor flooded festival sets and headphones (with a highly anticipated album from Luttrell out next month). A string of sold-out Anjunadeep Open Air shows cemented the label’s dominance in a very saturated party scene (and I can confirm, Open Air at the Brooklyn Mirage was DOPE).
The label carries this momentum into 2019, with Grant and Wisternoff presenting the carefully crafted ‘Anjunadeep 10.’ An eclectic mix of exclusive electronic cuts ranging from the dreamlike melodies of Tokyo’s Lycoriscoris and Stockholm’s boerd, to peak-time dancefloor gems from Yotto, Lane 8 and Luttrell, ‘Anjunadeep 10’ captures the full range of the label sound. Alongside an abundance of edits and remixes from James & Jody themselves, the compilation also features a hand-picked selection of new names and emerging talent to the label. This year’s installation sees label debuts from the likes of BAILE, Ocula and GRAZZE, as well as familiar names Virtual Self and Tomas Barfod, via a pair of exclusive remixes from Lane 8 and James & Jody.
Of the release, James & Jody say:
“It’s hard to believe we’ve reached the 10th volume in the Anjunadeep compilation series. Despite Anjunadeep 10 being a bit of a milestone, we’ve resisted any temptation to go down a nostalgic route. Instead we’ve tried to keep the mix as forward-looking as possible – our amazing family of artists have been creating far too much exciting new music for us to contemplate any other approach. We’ve also spent a few months politely swerving questions about when Deep 10 might be released, not least as we’re never sure ourselves when it might finally feel finished. This one took a little longer than anticipated so thank you for your patience – we hope Anjunadeep 10 is worth the wait.”
‘Anjunadeep 10’ is available to pre-order now via Anjunadeep, digitally and on CD.
