Influential British producer and DJ Carl Cox has announced a new label which will focus on live techno acts.
The first release of Awesome Soundwave (ASW) will be a conceptual album from fellow label-head Christoper Coe, aka Digital Primate. Titled ‘MNTNS of SLNC‘, the LP will drop in May, with two remix EPs also on the cards.
Speaking of ASW, Cox said: “The idea is to bring together a whole plethora of amazing producers and would-be live acts in the realms of electronic music and bring them to the forefront of where we are to take the music into the future.”
He then added: “My idea was to create a label where artists who actually can make their music live, and perform their music live, have a stable where they can be themselves, be able to create the music without any boundaries and to feel free in the sense of releasing music without prejudice in any way, shape or form.”
