Label head and producer Dan Carey commented: “I’m excited to have this collection ready. There is something that sets this apart from the previous 5 volumes: I had never worked with, and in most cases never even met any of the people on this record until the sessions for these songs. There’s a variety in how these collaborations came about.
"Jane Weaver and Lewsberg are artists that I’d been wanting to work with for a long time, whereas I saw Hot Face at The Windmill one night and just said come over to mine! I have calculated that as a result of this compilation, Speedy Wunderground now has 24 new friends.”
The record label will be throwing a launch party at London’s The Social on August 29. It will feature performances from Hot Face, Morn, and surprise DJs.
Speedy Wunderground Vol. 6 can be pre-ordered here.
