Compilation d’Orwell:
La sélection des quinze titres, issus des albums d’Orwell mais également de différentes productions parallèles, a été réalisée par Alex Mélis, fondateur du label Les Disques Mange-tout (John Cunnigham, Matt Ward, Melon Galia…) dans les 90’s et aujourd’hui secrétaire général de la salle de spectacles L’Aéronef (Lille).
