Various - Tru Thoughts 15th Anniversary / Various

UK indie label Tru Thoughts 15th Anniversary is an essential collection, compiled by A&R and label co-owner Robert Luis. This 2014 2 X CD celebration of independent artistic talent encompasses the early leftfield electronica of Bonobo and Quantic's trailblazing world explorations, Alice Russell's powerhouse soul and New Orleans' iconic Hot 8 Brass Band; UK dons like Rodney P and Zed Bias, through to the stars of tomorrow, with Harleighblu's vocal prowess and cutting edge production from Lost Midas, Titeknots and Werkha. While the vinyl focuses on in-demand fan favorites both new and old (including the Quantic Soul Orchestra's timeless "Pushin' On", currently gracing the Radio 1 A-List in sample form on Oliver $ and Jimi Jules' hit "Pushing On"). Exclusive tracks include the Wickaman D&B remix of Wrongtom Meets Deemas J's "Jump+Move+Rock" and a new rework by Paul SG of Bonobo's classic "Terrapin".
