For those of you not in the know, fabric, an indescribably important venue in London’s electronic scene, had its license revoked back in September following a series of drug-related deaths. Having hosted almost every name that one could think of in electronic music, fabric’s closure has been a huge blow to London’s cultural and artistic landscape.
In an effort to raise money for legal fees, fabric’s in-house record label, fabric records, has collaborated with Houndstooth to release this 111-track compilation that features artists from across the entire electronic spectrum. While I’m definitely too lazy to convert the 9.99GBP price tag to USD, I can guarantee you that the price is worth your support of the electronic scene. After all, London isn’t the only city—*ahem* I’m looking at you, Chicago—that has recently called into question electronic music’s artistic legitimacy.
