Love Torture Records

December 21st, 2009


Why did you start a label?

I started Love Torture Records while I was doing a 3 year stay in the very beautiful, but very boring state of Nebraska. I started the label as a way for me to release my own material and ever-growing roster of projects, as well as meet like-minded artists and lovers of sound, and help get their art out to the world. LTR started out strictly as a Net-Label, offering it’s catalogue for download, free of charge, but with the intention of one day doing very limited edition physical releases. Now we have both :) We release experimental electronic music. We especially love noise. We are very open minded.

Why do you keep doing it?

Because I have to. First and foremost, I love doing it, and I get to work with so many amazing artists, and secondly because it has become it’s own beast entirely, and being the animal right enthusiast that I am, I could never have the heart to kill it. ;)   It is truly a pleasure and a privilege though, seriously.

Name 5 bands you’d love to release?

Kawaiietly Please, White Mountains, Amon Tobin, Venetian Snares, and Thurston Moore. Oh to dream ;)

Do you accept demos, if so where?

I am always always always accepting submissions for the Net Label. Email submissions to lovetorturerecords@gmail.com.  I am currently booked solid on physical releases until sometime in mid 2010.
