LCD Soundsystem is the brainchild of James Murphy, a key figure in the NYC collective/label/production house DFA. The band has been active since 2001 and has gained a devoted following for their unique blend of electronic and indie rock music.

Over the years, LCD Soundsystem's live performances have featured talented musicians such as Patrick Mahoney, Nancy Whang, Tyler Pope, Gavilán Rayna Russom, Phillip Mossman, Al Doyle, Phillip Scaritch, J.D. Mark, Matthew Thornley, Andrew Raposo, Justin Chearno, and Gerhardt Fuchs.

With their energetic and infectious sound, LCD Soundsystem continues to captivate audiences worldwide with their dynamic live shows and critically acclaimed albums.

'london sessions' is an unique john peel session style 9 track encapsulation of one of today's most acclaimed acts in perhaps their rawest and most original recordings to date. the session itself was recorded in one day at the pool / miloco studios in south london on june 29th 2010; the week following their triumphant glastonbury 2010 performance. fans of lcd soundsystem will know that radio sessions are something that have never been a staple of the band's career thus far because of the belief in the necessity to maintain the highest quality of all sonic recordings released into the ether. the set, which spans the breadth of their career to date, perfectly captures the intuitive live evolvement of lcd as a band. notably, nothing is replicated with computers. instead, everything is recreated in real time; creating a tougher, looser and less clinical performance. these sessions feature tracks from all of their studio albums to date, as well as long lost b-side classic 'yr city's a sucker'; a must for any fan of the band. the tracks were subsequently mixed by james murphy in nyc at dfa's plantain studio and mastered by his longtime cohort bob weston in chicago.
