<p>In perfect synchronicity, we release our 40th compilation CD just as we approach our 40th anniversary next year. Fittingly, Counter Culture 15 covers a multitude of musical styles, reflecting the ebb and flow of the newest sounds and styles in independently-released modern music selected by the staff and customers here at Rough Trade. As has become the tradition, disc one leads with soulful and contemplative selections before a subtle increase in volume and viscosity sets you up for the digital, the hip hop and the dancefloor soundclash of the second disc. Tracks include cuts from Björk's critically acclaimed ninth album 'Vulnicura', Father John Misty's lauded concept LP 'I Love You, Honeybear', Ezra Furman's glorious pop, garage rock and doo-wop long-player 'Perpetual Motion People' and the tour-de-force of sumptuously tempered ballads and taut, fizzing electronic pop that is John Grant's 'Grey Tickles, Black Pressure', alongside tracks from Courtney Barnett's incisive and melodic 'Sometimes I Sit and Think, and Sometimes I Just Sit' album, Sleaford Mods' insistent and furious third full-length 'Key Markets' and Jamie xx's ubiquitous club set 'In Colour'. Our reputation has been forged by our instinct to pick out a good tune when we hear it, wherever it may spring from. To prove the point, sprinkled among the above are some killer tracks from Cale Tyson's 'Introducing', Mac Demarco's 'Another One', Frankie Lee's 'American Dreamer', Ultimate Painting's 'Green Lanes' and Tobias Jesso Jr's 'Goon' albums. Holly Herndon and Jenny Hval are two of the leading lights in digital composition and sound art and they are represented here by tracks from their 'Platform' and 'Apocalypse, girl' albums, before the party tunes take over with beats, bass and rhymes from Oddisee, Butcher Bear, Novelist x Mumdance and Seven Davis Jr and some sick dancefloor action from Demdike Stare, O. Xander and Lil Silva. Closing out the 37-track selection are tracks from Romare's future-thinking dancefloor collage 'Projections' and the dazzling shimmer of Floating Points' 'Elaenia', before we wind it right down with a Rough Trade exclusive track from Max Richter's eight-hour lullaby 'Sleep', designed as the antithesis to our frenetic world. Slide disc one back into the player to segue smoothly into Nils Frahm's 'Some', a track from his 'Solo' album, and you will be ready to take the sonic trip through 2015 with us all over again.Full Tracklisting:CD11.  Nils Frahm Some 2.  Father John Misty Bored In the USA3.  Seth Avett &amp; Jessica Lea Mayfield Fond Farewell4.  Sufjan Stevens Carrie &amp; Lowell5.  GWENNO Y Dydd Olaf6.  Mac Demarco Another One7.  Ultimate Painting Sweet Chris8.  Cale Tyson Long Gone Girl9.  Tobias Jesso Jr How Could You Babe10.
