Xfm head of marketing Charlotte Soussan said: "Xfm is committed to live music and we broadcast exclusive live sessions six days a week, as well as making them available on the Xfm website. This CD features some of the most exciting bands Xfm and NME have been supporting in the past year and offers fans exclusive versions of some of their favourite tracks."
