"foldback and feedback..."
We are an independant label, specialising in the darker end of the spectrum for experimental, eclectic, highly individual, industrial and avant-garde music. We work closely with our artists, more a cooperative than a conventional label, and where needed we will help with mastering, feedback, and the artwork. Please do not send unsolicited demos, we are not adding new artists at this time.
When we live by the imagination, we exhaust our capacity for imagining, and especially
for imagining what's real. Mentally living off what doesn't and can never exist, we
lose our ability to ponder what can exist.
--The Book of Disquiet
We like: analog electronics | delay machines | distortion | music concrète | tape loops | warped vinyl
