Silber Records: drone love honesty sound
Description
History
Silber Records officially started in 1996 with the release of the Alleviation compilation, though its conceptual birth can be traced back even earlier to the fall of 1994 with the release of QRD zine #1. I started the zine with every intention of it eventually turning into a record label. The premise for the label was, and remains, simply to release music by people I like in order to sell enough of their records so they wouldn’t have to work day jobs, and to simultaneously sell directly to the consumer at a lower than usual price (ala Dischord).
Of course, I didn't understand distribution then...But, it's many years later and we continue to release innovative music that speaks a language we understand because it’s what we know how to do. Good music deserves to be heard, and we're doing our part to make sure it gets from the bedroom to your ears.
Intent
It is our responsibility to release innovative music that we feel is relevant and important to us. It is also our responsibility to be a model of morality and ethicism, in both our music and business practices. The truth is, we don’t think of Silber as a record label as much as we do a family of artists from around the world, sharing mutual respect for each other. The artists we showcase are stylistically and technically different from one another, and because of this, our audience is wonderfully varied. However, there are common threads that hold us all together, whether they be in the form of walls-of-sound or acoustic guitars.
