Modern Obscure Music edit
Modern Obscure Music is an experimental electronic music independent record label based out of Barcelona, Spain, founded by Pedro Vian in 2014.
The label presents itself as a cross-cutting platform that explores the boundaries between different disciplines based on listening and music research[1]. The artistic direction for the label comes from Pedro Vian himself and graphic designer Marc Monguilod. The original logo was created by designer Alex Trochut.
Modern Obscure Music is dedicated to “niche” music that combines local artists with an international scope, marked by connections around the world mostly in Europe, USA and Japan.
The label gained worldwide attention with the release of 'PRSNT’ in 2021[2][3][4][5][6], a concept co-devised by Created by Us and Modern Obscure Music. As a unique artistic project combining the input of artists across the worlds of music, video and written word acting as a statement on how we, as consumers, engage with music in the 21st century[7]. Renowned musicians and composers that contributed include Ryuichi Sakamoto, Pascal Comelade, Laurie Spiegel, Lyra Pramuk, Chassol, Nicolas Godin and Pierre Rousseau, Pedro Vian and Pierre Bastien, Visible Cloaks, Kelman Duran, Raül Refree, Lucrecia Dalt, and Rashad Becker. Alongside the music, the compilation also included writings by contemporary thinkers like Shumon Bazar and INA GRM director François J. Bonnet, and photography from Wolfgang Tillmans, Joel Meyerowitz, Juergen Teller, Nobuyoshi Araki, Jack Davison, Alessandra Sanguinetti, Dani Pujalte, Elizaveta Porodina, Adrià Cañameras, Larissa Zaidan, Zhong Lin.
In 2018 a subsidiary of the main label was formed. Passat Continu is mainly focused on reissues and alternative projects based around the genres of folk and the avant-garde. Releases have spanned an array of artists such as Canaan Balsam, Sheila Chandra, Javier Segura, Charles Ditto and Jessica Boston.
In recent years, Modern Obscure Music has presented showcases in the festivals and venues of Barcelona, like Lapsus Festival, Mira Festival, Mutek, Sónar, Razzmatazz, Sala Apolo and Nica, but also in other cities like Amsterdam, Berlin, Tokyo, C2C in Turin or New York.
