It also includes several unreleased introductions from a January 2020 Worldwide FM broadcast at Chicago’s Co-Prosperity (also the site of the album cover photo, taken by Carolina Sanchez), where Peterson gave International Anthem “Label of the Year” honors, as part of his 2020 Worldwide Awards.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAlbum Liner Notes by Gilles Peterson:\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFrom the get go I could see it.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eI could see that International Anthem was the real deal.

It’s a community that is built on the city’s history but has, over the years, championed the spirit of creative music and pushed it forward with an outlook that reaches out to like minded souls regardless of time and space.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThroughout the 10 years of their existence we have crossed paths many times. From being in Chicago to celebrate them as label of the year in January 2020 just before the world shut down, to hanging with the crew in London, to playing so much of the label’s output on both on my radio shows and in my DJ sets.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSo it is my pleasure to honour our friendship with a selection of tracks that have soundtracked the journey, so far…\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e- Gilles Peterson, November 2024\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003ca\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003ch3 class=\"credits-label\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"tralbumData tralbum-credits\"\u003ereleased July 11, 2025\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eCompilation Produced by Gilles Peterson, Federico Bolza, and Scott McNiece.\u003cbr\u003eMastered by David Allen.\u003cbr\u003ePhotos by Carolina Sanchez.\u003cbr\u003eDesign by Aaron Lowell Denton.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003ch3 class=\"license-label\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cdiv id=\"license\" class=\"info license\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"cc-icons commercial\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003eall rights reserved\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"International Anthem","offers":[{"title":"IARC0100 Classic Black vinyl 2xLP","offer_id":52121001689362,"sku":"IARC0100LP","price":25.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"IARC0100 2xCD","offer_id":52121001722130,"sku":"IARC0100CD","price":14.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"IARC0100 Digital Download","offer_id":52121001754898,"sku":"IARC0100","price":9.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0751\/6989\/0578\/files\/a1055138236_10.jpg?v=1773718599","url":"https:\/\/shop.intlanthem.com\/products\/gilles-peterson-gilles-peterson-presents-international-anthem","provider":"International Anthem","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
