Anjunadeep has today released the ninth installment of their infamous compilation series, Anjunadeep 09. The highly anticipated project includes tracks from some of the best talent the label has to offer, including unreleased cuts from Dusky, Yotto, Luttrell, Compuphonic and plenty of others. As with all of the compilations released by the label, Anjunadeep 09 was mixed by James Grant (label founder and A&R) and Jody Wisternoff (one half of Way Out West), who has selected tracks and helped James mix the compilations since Anjunadeep 05.
James and Jody have spent the better part of a year sourcing and curating this year’s compilation, creating 6 of their own exclusive remixes, edits and collaborations in the process. The result is one of the most adventurous Anjunadeep compilations to date – ranging from the esoteric electronica of Tokyo’s Lycoriscoris and Stockholm’s Boerd, through to peak-time dancefloor Gems from label stars Yotto and Luttrell, weaved together effortlessly by Jody and James alongside a number of exclusives from Anjunadeep veterans Martin Roth, Dusky, Tom Middleton, 16 Bit Lolitas and Croquet Club.
As always however, James and Jody look to the future, introducing a raft of young new artists on this year’s compilation. Emerging acts Fluida, Antic, Kieran Apter and Gallago make up a strong UK contingent, alongside US talents Fairchild and David Hohme, Canada’s Kora and Australia’s Planète to name a few.
Label co-founder and A&R James Grant has built a cult following in recent years, with his compilations, live sets and radio shows a constant highlight in the label’s output. Bristol’s Jody Wisternoff has a reputation as a globe-trotting party starter, with an energetic DJing style and renowned production flair. Now mixing their fifth Anjunadeep compilation together and having played extended sets together around the world, the collaborative chemistry between the pair is obvious and reaches new heights on Anjunadeep 09. Dive in and enjoy.
