2013 saw Rough Trade open a shop onsite for the first time and now, working together, Rough Trade and Primavera Sound have produced their first CD collaboration, showcasing the music that will be heard at this year’s festival in Barcelona.
As ever, this year’s line-up is as diverse and exciting as ever. From alternative-scene history makers Pixies, The Julie Ruin (Kathleen Hannah), Neutral Milk Hotel and Lee Renaldo to the much-loved Midlake, !!!, Wolf Eyes, John Grant, Mogwai and The National. Add them to contemporary groundbreaking artists like Julia Holter, Demdike Stare and Factory Floor, the craft of Temples, Real Estate and Jagwar Ma, the raw energy of the prolific Ty Segall, the soulful Charles Bradley and Blood Orange and a selection from Primavera’s in-house label El Segell del Primavera - Joanna Serrat and Headbirds amongst others – and this collection from the curators of Primavera Sound 2014 becomes a potent document of this year’s event.
Primavera Sound:
Since 2001, Primavera Sound has concentrated all its efforts in uniting the latest music from the independent scene together with already well-established artists, while embracing any style or genre in the live line-up, fundamentally looking for quality and essentially backing pop and rock, as well as underground electronic and dance music.
