"Shapes: Circles" is a cornerstone of the essential label compilation series from the British independent powerhouse Tru Thoughts, curated by co-owner and A&R Robert Luis. The collection showcases the diversity and evolution of the label’s current sound, seamlessly blending soul, hip hop, reggae, jazz, and electronic club music.
The first part of the compilation is tailored for eclectic listening, featuring deep soul cuts from Harleighblu and Alice Russell, spiritual jazz by Menagerie, and inspired covers like Hot 8 Brass Band’s rendition of "Ghost Town." The second part leans towards the dancefloor, focusing on club-oriented grooves, heavy bass, and jungle, showcasing works by Zed Bias, Skream, and exclusives from Titeknots. The release reinforces Tru Thoughts' reputation as one of the UK’s leading independent labels.
