Orthlorng Musork
Josh Kit Clayton and Sue's orphanage for odd earthling's music. This started as a small label with good intentions—to put out unique and really good music that everyone else considered too different—so a bunch of us gave them good music to put out. Then it got bigger than they expected, and Sue found she couldn't really do the label and the artists justice unless she became a bigger label; and that wasn't the original plan. So it was shit or get off the pot, and they closed the label down. It did what it was supposed to do: it put out genre defying records that sure enough lots of people liked. We proved our point: people aren't as narrowminded as everybody thinks they are. We showcased at Mutek and Sonar, played a bunch of shows together and generally had a good time considering ourselves as Orthlorngs.
from hidden corners and crevices, microbes of the musical world emerge. beautiful in their sometimes intricate design, sometimes violent simplicity, they are reactions to/parasites of the strivingly antiseptic world that surrounds them. jewels of neglect, they glisten in the hands of the curious, who become unsuspecting hosts for these sounds and the prickly aesthetics they bring with them. these ideas, noises, musorks have picked us to manifest their need to be heard. we have no choice but to share them with you through orthlorng musork, a voice for the uncommon which is far too often swept aside.
Rgds!
