Since spinning off from Kemado Records in 2008, Brooklyn-based record label Mexican Summer has put out over 250 releases from "some of the most visionary and respected names in underground music, developing a hard-to-define but easy-to-appreciate aesthetic along the way," says Stereogum. To celebrate their 10-year anniversary—"a decade deeper, a decade spent tripping the light fantastic," as they put it—they're throwing a one-day festival on November 17th in Brooklyn. Available exclusively at the event is this limited edition LP, featuring unreleased music from Ariel Pink, Connan Mockasin, Tonstartssbandht, and many others.
