September 25th 2007

Wow, an entire year to the day since the last release announcement!

String Theory is finally here.

String Theory is a two disc compilation covering as many forms of guitar music as possible, and also as many continents as possible with a few new discoveries from Hong Kong and Singapore to name a few. Over the past few years a loose community of ambient and experimental guitarists has been coalescing around the world; with many players based inMelbourne, but its connections reach across Australia and internationally. This album is an attempt to bring together a diverse group of artists who’s approaches to the instrument vary in texture, technique and composition.  Yet this wide selection of artists, from the established to the obscure, are united in their quest to reinvent perhaps the most clichéd of modern instruments; the electric guitar.

LIVE EVENTS

This year, the label has been branching more into hosting live performances. With the assistance & enthusiasm of Melbourne's bar / art space "Loop", we have managed to host & co-curate a few shows featuring the kind of music that this label is dedicated to. In the live events section you can find reviews & audio samples from each event.
