A number of artists have signed on to participate in Waxploitation's new Darfur charity album. Due out November 27, 2007, the album promises exclusive and rare tracks donated by Animal Collective, The Black Keys, Bloc Party, Bright Eyes, Cornelius, The Cure, David Sylvian, Death Cab for Cutie, (International) Noise Conspiracy, The Shins remixed by Clint Mansell, Spoon, Teargas & Plateglass, Thievery Corporation and Travis.

One hundred percent of the proceeds will go to three non–profit organizations: Doctors Without Borders, Human Rights Watch and Oxfam America. The album will be available digitally on iTunes for only 90 days beginning on November 27th. "We've made a conscious decision to create a sense of urgency – to mirror what is a dire situation in Darfur." says founder Jeff Antebi.

Although estimates of the number of people killed by the conflict in Darfur vary widely from 200,000 to 400,000, what is certain is that more than 2 million people have fled their homes because of the fighting, and 4 million are now in need of humanitarian assistance–making this one of the worst crises in the world today.
