Kracfive

It came out of swapping tapes of homemade music which was similar to the electronic music put out by Skam, merck, and Sonig, with a playful experimental streak. Its artists forge interesting beats and nice tunes using electronic sound design and a fine ear for field and music sampling, picking apart bits of sound to create new instruments and melodies with a “peculiar technical prowess”. Exploring new sonic lands and sometimes coming across in the vein of the best soundtracks from 1980s videogames, it remains accessible to open ears. The label is somewhat mysterious and have been humbly lurking, embracing quality over quantity, not favoring much in the way of advertisements, self-promotion or explanation. Its imaginative sensibilities and idealism have created a bit of a cult following and it has been called ‘dadaist’ in reviews. It has been described as ‘unique for having a mind-foldingly specific sound; this sound, however, is indescribable.
