31songs for japan

V.A.

+jp

The events that occurred to Japan in March 2011 brought sorrow to the victims of the earthquakes and the tsunami as well as an ongoing anxiety of a nuclear catastrophe. It confronted not only the people of Japan, but also people overseas with a paralyzing helplessness facing a catastrophe of such an enormity.
This is an attempt to help the victims within our means. All the artists on this compilation openly contributed (mostly yet unreleased) music to support the relief in the affected areas of Japan. All proceeds of the sales of this compilation will be entirely donated to the Red Cross Japan.

the compilation co-produced by daniel bürkner
supported by boomkat, calango, frameworks festival

thanks to: takcom, jim collinson, sanso-xtro, emanuele errante, henning schmiedt, karin zwack and all artists involved.
