Download Service’s 10-Year Anniversary Compilation

March 13, 2012


One of the past decade's secretly most influential labels, Service, home to impossible-to-appreciate-enough drivers of the experimental pop sea change like The Tough Alliance, The Embassy and Jens Lekman, celebrates their tenth anniversary with a free compilation, entitled Decennium. Though songs by the three aforementioned groups are featured, naturally, the greatest joy with the comp is pulling in less familiar releases, with tracks like Lake Heartbeat’s incredible "Mystery," Ikons’ new single "Free Spirit" and a fleeting glimpse at Erik De Vahl’s world, which always sounds like the most charmingly overgrown garden. My personal favorite is streaming below, The Embassy's video for "State08," featuring early-’80s test shots from Maurice Pialat's À nos amours.
