You love it. We love it. So why not celebrate it? Nowhere on the planet has been such a hotbed for creativity and sonic exploration over the past several years …as Brooklyn, NY.

To commemorate the occasion, we put together this free compilation album, showcasing many of the artists playing Celebrate Brooklyn! this summer.
