VA-Open Culture: No Borders, Vol. 2 [Pollination]

https://pollination-uk.bandcamp.com/album/open-culture-no-borders-vol-2

The Pollination label is due to release the second volume of it’s ‘Open Borders’ compilation, scheduled for release on the 9th of June. The album represents an expression of support for refugees. Here’s what the offiicial press release says:

Open Culture: No Borders is a campaign demonstrating solidarity with refugees and asylum seekers, as an ongoing response to the UK government’s ‘Hostile Environment Policy’. The policy has involved a slew of regressive legislations, intended to create a deliberately challenging environment for migrants to settle. In the process, we are seeing cruel approaches to the treatment of refugees and asylum seekers, the use of provocative language intended to create division and the adaption of laws which offer protection of human rights for all.

Proceeds go to Safe Passage International, who support unaccompanied children seeking asylum to reunite safely with their families across Europe, and campaign for more accessible, safer routes.

So far, contributors to the album include respected artists such as Al Wootton, Ekula, Law, Rawtrachs and many more. So far, the album stands at 40 tracks priced at £12. As expected, the musical range is diverse from IDM to House through to Bass, Breaks, DnB and Techno. Some of our favourite tunes include Ekula x Zak Smiff ‘Murda!’, Eusebeia ‘Renewal’ and Law ‘Snakes and Ladders.’ Pre-Order a copy here https://pollination-uk.bandcamp.com/album/open-culture-no-borders-vol-2
