ANOMALOUS RECORDS
|
Anomalous Records was founded in February 1991 by Eric Lanzillotta as a wholesale distributor for experimental records. The distribution was closed down in August 2003 for a much needed break from the business. At the end of 2004, the label closed down as well. In August of 2005, long time head of the mail order department, Rachael Jackson, started selling some of the numerous great titles that were left in storage when Anomalous closed its distribution operation. You can find a list of what is now available for sale here. There are also a handful of rare and used items for sale here. Both lists are updated every time the stock changes whether something sells out or is added. Some times this means every day, other times longer periods may pass. Either way, you can be assured this list is up to date. In 2007 a posthumous release was done to fill in the missing catalog number NOM28. "Three Aural Interpretations of a Drawing by Eric Lanzillotta" is exactly that, and features specially commissioned recordings by Jeph Jerman, Leif Elggren and Ralf Wehowsky. This 7" record was pressed on clear vinyl in an edition of 250 copies and was mastered at 33 RPM to hold the 12 minutes of sound. This is all packaged in a poster sleeve that opens up to reveal the original drawing that inspired the sounds. This was a one off release, and no further releases on Anomalous Records are planned. At this time less than 30 copies of this 7" remain. Eric's primary activity right now is the new label Ri Be Xibalba, which has a different focus than Anomalous Records did. Distributors wishing to purchase titles on the Anomalous Records label should contact Pogus Productions. Trade is occasionally possible, please your send list. |
