Vuzh Music (pronounced to rhyme with "rouge") began operation in 1990 as a means of distributing my own musical works to the worldwide hometaping network. I'm c. reider, nice to meet you.
The first recording available was Luster's not named. Featuring spare darkwave-ish songs, it became somewhat of a cult "hit" on a small scale. Later releases explored experimental possibilities in recorded sound -- beginning with the Unseelie Court; the first postal collaboration of many. Sound sources were traded via mail with Terry Burke (a.k.a. Dr. Terrence 13) of Histatic Charge) and special additions were made to the sound soup by caerie. Since that crucial recording, the emphasis has been on experimental works, music that treads the line between ambient and noise. Originally all releases were cassette only, and widely available for trade with like-minded hometapers. Recently, the rather large project of cleaning up and remastering old releases for digital re-release has begun. This process has been polishing up some quite dusty gems. Continue to check back frequently to find out what is available, or email for an update when new releases become available. The current direction of Vuzh Music is to continue to put out new music along with occasional re-releases of some of my older work from the days of the cassette underground, and also to occasionally release some very interesting works by some of my friends and colleagues. This website will be slowly phasing out CDrs as a medium and replacing all purchasable items with pay-per-download service. Otherwise many releases will come out on a free to download basis. |
