Psicotropicodelia Music

Profile:
THE LABEL

Psicotropicodelia is the Brazilian web label founded and run by producers Harlem Pinheiro and Evando Iwaszko plus multimedia artist and designer Flavio Lazarino.

With a strong focus on diversity the label shows timelessness, variety, impact and integration with any other artistic and multimedia manifestations that come across its path.


SHORT BIO

The label emerged from a simple electronic music and soundtracks blog, this then grew to include various online presences on multimedia and networking sites; LastFm, MySpace, OnVibes to mention but a few.

Over a period of a few months in 2007 three showcase albums were released, Psicotropicodelia Music Volumes 1 and 2, and also the labels first experience with independent cinema, the soundtrack to "Era dos Mortos" (Era Of The Dead) a 40 minute typically blood splattered zombie movie. The volumes featured tracks from some of the most current electronic music genres; Breakcore, IDM, Dubstep, Electrocore, Chiptune and so on. A deliberate effort was made by the label to dedicate at least two thirds of both volumes content to the Brazilian e-music scene.

Since the three initial releases the label's output has been on a much more varied range of formats. EPs and mini-albums, mixtapes, collaborative remixes and the eagerly awaited Volume 3 compilation. This volume took a more conceptual route than the previous releases and was divided into two distinct sections each with its own vibe. The Psicotropic section featured the extreme, the heavy and the radically experimental, and in contrast the Sonicodelic section was much more atmospheric, cinematic and 'soundtrackier'.

Much more recently there has been a clear signal that the label is reaching an ever more considerable worldwide audience with its surpassing of the 85,000 downloads mark on the Internet Archive.

PSICOTROPICODELIA NOW

The label has many exciting plans and projects in the pipeline for 2010 and 2011. They will be exploring new formats and channels alongside pushing the same experimental ethos that has been the heart of the label from the start. Plans include increased instant interactivity between artists, fans and the team at the label. Viva la internets!

We can expect to see Psicotropicodelia growing and changing to encompass the new ideas, concepts, technologies and visions the label and its artists have.

O SELO

Psicotropicodelia é um selo musical virtual (netlabel), coordenado pelos produtores Harlem Pinheiro e Evandro Iwaszko, em parceria com o artista multimídia e designer Flávio Lazarino. Segue com o diferencial da música livre e gratuita, buscando qualidade crescente em seus lançamentos.

BREVE HISTÓRICO

O selo emergiu de um simples blog, dedicado a trilhas-sonoras e música eletrônica, e estendeu-se a portais multimídia como: Fiberonline, Jamendo, LastFm, MySpace, OnVibes, Trig, Virb, entre outros; que ajudaram a disseminar os lançamentos em "frontes" diversos, nacionais e internacionais.

Em sua 1ª fase - de maio a setembro de 2007 - publicamos duas coletâneas, Psicotropicodelia Music volumes 1 e 2; e a trilha-sonora do média-metragem “Era dos Mortos”. As coletâneas continham faixas em alguns dos segmentos musicais mais autorais da atualidade (Breakcore, IDM, Dubstep, Electrocore, Chiptune, etc.), com pelo menos 2/3 delas dedicadas à cena nacional. A trilha foi nossa primeira experiência com cinema independente.

A 2ª fase, em andamento desde outubro de 2007, trouxe uma maior variedade de formatos: EPs/mini-álbuns, mixtapes, remixes coletivos e a coletânea Vol. 3. Esta, mais conceitual que os volumes anteriores, dividiu-se em duas seções: Psicotropic [“extrema”, pesada e radicalmente experimental] e Sonicodelic [mais suave e “trilhesca”].

Recentemente ultrapassamos a marca de 75.000 mil downloads no site de hospedagem Internet Archive, sinal de que estamos atingindo um público considerável nesses últimos 2 anos.

PRINCÍPIOS PSICOTROPICODELIA E METAS

Começamos o ano de 2009 ampliando a gama de lançamentos e recursos, testando novos formatos e buscando sempre um senso de experimentação e intercâmbio junto aos ouvintes, artistas e colaboradores.

Nessa nova fase, a comunicação, identidade e conceito do selo estão sendo amarrados para garantir uma maior facilidade de contato e informação ao público interessado.

Seguiremos assim comemorando a união de artistas independentes de cenas transcontinentais - criando a música do século 21 - através de paisagens audiovisuais universais.
