about

When we said earlier in the year that Detroit experimental electronic artist King Shoji was prolific, we weren’t joking. We were surprised ourselves when the enigmatic noise-maker sent us a message on social media regarding a new collection of works.

We were also overjoyed, mind you.

Vortex is a nine-track “suite” of works crafted throughout a year locked-down in the United States and impresses more of the influences, both musically and pop-culturally, that King Shoji ascribes to.

80’s VHS horror and grindhouse titles, with John Carpenter a definite influence across the album as a whole and those unnerving, eerie synth stabs akin to Riz Ortolani‘s Cannibal Holocaust soundtrack.

Wholly more accessible than the harsh noise of his previous album, Vortex still retains that sense of unease you will shortly come to appreciate more from the diverse, bountiful musician.

UK based micro-label. We release things we like.

It's almost like running a record store. But less profitable.

Only just.
