about

Join us in celebrating 15 years of Tru Thoughts Records. To commemorate the anniversary we have put together an extremely special box set, the type of which we’ve never done before. The box will boast three 12” slabs of coloured vinyl cut to a pentadecagonal (15 sided) shape, along with two CDs and a 12” 20 page booklet of exclusive interviews and photographs. Each box comes hand-numbered and emblazoned with a custom creation by revered graffiti artist Aroe. Limited to only 500 copies worldwide, once they’re gone…. they’re gone! The Tru Thoughts Anniversary Box Set is a seriously covetable item and is exclusively available to order from PledgeMusic now (official release date 20th October).

The box features a selection of music, hand-picked by co-owner and A&R Robert Luis to celebrate the past, present and future of his thriving independent label’s eclectic and adventurous catalogue. This celebration of independent artistic talent encompasses the early leftfield electronica of Bonobo and Quantic’s trailblazing world explorations, to Alice Russell’s powerhouse soul and New Orleans’ iconic Hot 8 Brass Band; UK icons like Rodney P and Zed Bias, through to the stars of tomorrow with cutting edge production from Lost Midas, Titeknots and Werkha and the natural vocal prowess of Harleighblu.

The family spirit that has always characterised the label is reflected in the relish with which the artists have devised an array of additional treats to offer alongside the box set. Whether it is a personalised London Posse dubplate or Youngblood Brass Band’s bass drum, signed Hidden Orchestra memorabilia or a bespoke Harleighblu a cappella recording, a visit to Lost Midas’ LA studio or a Titeknots Remix, signed original Quantic test pressings or an original Nostalgia 77 album master reel – to name just a few – there is much fun to be had! On a more general theme, die-hard TT nuts can take the opportunity to visit the Brighton HQ, meet the team and listen to a stash of original archive demos and rarities from back in the early days. Each purchase on PledgeMusic gives you access to updates as we make the box set, along with exclusive content to build up the anticipation for release.

It’s time for the Tru Thoughts 15th Anniversary celebrations to get into full swing, 2014 has already seen the London label party at Koko in February at which the artists, staff and some 1500 fans welcomed the label’s 15th birthday year in explosive style. We’ve also had packed birthday tents at Glastonbury and Love Supreme, while upcoming events include festival takeovers at Bestival and Shambala and a special anniversary show in LA (home of the label’s US office) at the Skirball Cultural Center.
