Erased Tapes Records is home to ╙lafur Arnalds, A Winged Victory For The
Sullen, Rival Consoles, The B.E.F., Nils Frahm and Peter Broderick, amongst
others. It was February 5th, 2007 when the record company was first registered
and is now based in London and Berlin.
Erased Tapes has become a meeting point and melting pot for innovative and
imaginative musicians who knew there had to be somewhere they could call home.
As artist Nils Frahm says, the label is æa wonderful place for creating music
and I couldn't be happier in this family. And it is a family. ThereÆs a great
sense of freedom on this label.Æ Positioned deliberately outside the fleeting
trends that typify contemporary indie music, Erased Tapes has fostered
collaboration between its artists, often fusing disparate musical forms and
styles, rendering so-called genres like modern classical, post rock and
electronica redundant.
Robert Raths, founder of Erased Tapes, explains: 'I've always been most
interested in a dialogue between two opposite poles, between traditional and
contemporary, between digital and analogue. That cliff between electronic and
acoustic, the pop and the classical world. In bringing these worlds together or
at least start a conversation in how to utilise the best of both sides and make
it into something exciting, something current and something that is of our
time. In the beginning people might have found it hard to connect these dots
between each of our artists, but throughout the years I think it has become
more and more evident where the label is heading. Lots of good things have
happened that I never dared to dream of. ThatÆs what keeps it so exciting for
me. And with what lies ahead, I darenÆt even think where it might leadàÆ
