Permanent Vacation present an outstanding compilation providing an overview of the label's catalogue, from modern disco music and sunny house to Balearic vibes and deeper electronic. With the support of the government of the Principality of Liechtenstein, the Munich-based music label has produced a CD with proceeds going towards supporting children involved in armed conflicts. Specifically, support is provided to the non-governmental organization Play31, which organizes soccer matches for former child soldiers. In countless armed conflicts throughout the world, the rights of children are violated in many ways on a daily basis. They are recruited as soldiers, abused as sex slaves and deployed as suicide bombers or spies. It is assumed that today more than 250,000 children are forced to serve as soldiers. Mixing label classics and exclusive brand new material, label heads Tom Bioly and Benjamin Fröhlich have strived to compile pieces of music that strike both first time listeners and long time followers of Permanent Vacation alike. They hope that they've created a unique record that is not only appealing, but also helps contribute to a better future for former child soldiers. The collaboration with the Principality of Liechtenstein came about during ceremonies celebrating the 20th anniversary of Liechtenstein's membership to the United Nations. The safeguarding of human rights, especially the safeguarding of children's rights, is one of the focal points of Liechtenstein's mission with the UNO. Artists include Antena, Nouvelle Vague, 40 Thieves, Qzen, Brennan Green, Lauer, Mock & Toof, Walter Jones, Midnight Magic, Jacques Renault, The Embassy, Tensnake, Mirror People, Lullabies In The Dark, Woolfy vs Projections, John Talabot, Azari & III, Manuel Tur, Tevo Howard, Bostro Pesopeo and Invisible Conga People.
