Carl Craig celebrates Twenty F@#&ing Years of Planet E

As previously announced, Carl Craig is this year celebrating the 20th anniversary of his Planet E label.

February 22 will see the release of Twenty F@#&ing Years – We Ain’t Dead Yet, a 25-track digital compilation that serves as a “best of” – including time-honoured classics like Moodymann’s ‘Dem Young Sconies’, Urban Tribe’s ‘Covert Action’ and Innerzone Orchestra’s ‘Bug In The Bassbin’ alongside more recent bangers like Tres Demented’s ‘Shez Satan’ and Martin Buttrich’s ‘Full Clip’, and a previously unreleased C2 (Craig) remix of Kenny Larkin’s ‘You Are’.

The compilation will also appear in a vinyl box set edition later this year, its tracklist decided by fans (details of how to contribute are forthcoming).

Planet E is also preparing to reissue a number of classic singles from its catalogue, each chosen by a notable artist and backed with a new remix by that artist. These include Richie Hawtin, Ricardo Villalobos, Francois K, Luciano and Mike Banks.

Check Craig’s new website for more information on all of the above, including a track-by-track breakdown of We Ain’t Dead Yet and details of the imminent Planet E world tour, which will touch down in London’s Ewer St Warehouse on March 4 with Craig, Kenny Larkin, Paul Woolford, Psycatron and Read Truth at the controls.
