Gilles Peterson Presents: International Anthem

Curated by renowned DJ and broadcaster Gilles Peterson, Gilles Peterson Presents International Anthem is a wide-reaching, deeply personal compilation that celebrates the vibrant and genre-defying output of Chicago’s International Anthem label. Spanning jazz, ambient, soul, and experimental sounds, the collection blends studio recordings, rare cuts, live performances, and intimate spoken-word interludes into a rich sonic tapestry. With contributions from key label artists like Makaya McCraven, Angel Bat Dawid, Jeff Parker, and Jaimie Branch, the release reflects a shared ethos of improvisation, community, and sonic exploration. Warm, spiritual, and boundary-pushing, this compilation is both a tribute and a portal into one of the most forward-thinking musical movements of the last decade.
