London based Chess Club Records, who currently work with the likes of MØ, Swim Deep and Wolf Alice have announced that they’re releasing a compilation record. The release of Chess Club Volume 1 is the first time ever they’ve released a record, and it will feature acts that have released music through the label from 2007-2014.
