The musicians of Manchester have come together to create a huge compilation with all proceeds going to the We Love Manchester Emergency Fund for the families of the victims of the terror attack.
Manchester With Love features tracks donated by over 200 brilliant Manchester musicians and includes post-punk funk from A Certain Ratio, electronic soundscapes from 808 State, soulful hip hop from The Bluntskins, trash punk from John Peel favourites Inca Babies, atmospheric drum & bass from Dub Phizix, moody jazz from Matthew Halsall and a whole lot more.
This smorgasbord of genres and individual tracks will not be available to buy separately, so by buying the compilation you will get some unique material from a range of Manchester artists, including previously unheard and unreleased material.
Manchester With Love will be available for download from 21 June through Bandcamp and Boomkat.
Boomkat will take absolutely nothing for itself – meaning that 100% of the purchase price goes to the fund. Bandcamp will reduce the percentage they take from sales, as is standard for charity releases.
