Music News: Anjunadeep Explorations, the brand new label to showcase new talents presents an exceptional vinyl sampler


 

Approaching its 20th year, Anjunadeep has become "one of dance music's ultimate tastemaker labels" (Billboard). Known for breaking global artists like Ben Böhmer, Lane 8, Tinlicker and Dusky, the label has a reputation as "an A&R hotbed" (Resident Advisor).

Now, the label launches its new imprint titled 'Anjunadeep Explorations' this July. The 'Explorations' imprint is an evolution of the much-loved Various Artist EP series of the same name, which spanned 25 editions between 2016-2023 on Anjunadeep. Responsible for bringing through now-mainstay acts to the label such as Ben Böhmer, CRi, Luttrell, Rezident and Simon Doty, the series has also featured underground talents like Theo Kottis, Sam Goku and Gacha Bakradze. The label will focus on unearthing the next generation of electronic music talent, as well as introducing established acts to the Anjuna roster.

"The Explorations EP series has been such an important breeding ground for new Anjunadeep talent over the past eight years. Over 25 EPs it has given us a platform to introduce acts like Ben Böhmer, Marsh, Luttrell and many more who have gone on to become integral members of our label family. With the series now evolving into a dedicated label, I’m excited to keep uncovering new talent and welcoming the future stars of Anjunadeep. James Grant (Anjunadeep Label Founder)
"Each week we’ll be presenting music from the next generation of Anjunadeep artists, continuing to develop the sound of the label, and throwing in the odd curveball. We’ve got some amazing music in the pipeline from almost 20 artists, and can’t wait to start sharing it. Dom Donnelly (Anjunadeep Label Director)
