Ann Arbor’s Ghostly imprint has teamed up with the Adult Swim crew for not just any old release, but a free one. The 19-track, digital-only Ghostly Swim compilation will feature the label’s usual suspects, like Matthew Dear, Aeroc, Kill Memory Crash, and Osborne, along with Flying Lotus, Samiyam, Dark Party (Eliot Lipp and Leo 123), and other friends. BoyCatBird, Ghostly’s new mascot, also makes its animated debut here, in the form of a music video. We’ve been instructed to check out the new BoyCatBird website, for avatars, wallpapers, comics, and other items.
