Label GB

Domino

Domino is an independent label founded in Putney, South West London by *a694357* and his partner Jacqui Rice in 1993. The label initially focused on American acts such as *Sebadoh*, *Pavement* or *Royal Trux* before signing British acts in the late '90s.

The label operates a US division, located in Brooklyn, which output was initially identified by its own catalogue number schemes, DOMUS then DNO (used until 2013), when the releases handled by the UK headquarters are identified by WIG (albums) and RUG (singles and EPs) catalogue numbers.

The company operating the label, *Warp Records*, diversified, establishing a publishing arm and a series of labels (*Double Six Recordings*, *Weird World Record Co.*, *Rephlex*, ...).

Julia Holter is an American singer, songwriter, and multi-instrumentalist. Born on December 18, 1984 in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, she has gained recognition for her unique blend of experimental pop and art music.
Inspired by a diverse range of artists such as Laurel Halo, Julianna Barwick, Oneohtrix Point Never, Jenny Hval, Tim Hecker, Women and Cate Le Bon among others. Julia's music defies genre boundaries and captivates listeners with its ethereal melodies and thought-provoking lyrics.
With her mesmerizing vocals and intricate compositions, *Julia Holter* has established herself as a prominent figure in the contemporary music scene. Her albums have received critical acclaim worldwide and continue to push the boundaries of what is considered conventional music.

Aviary is an epic journey through what Julia Holter describes as “the cacophony of the mind in a melting world.” and it’s the Los Angeles composer’s most breathtakingly expansive album yet, full of startling turns and dazzling instrumental arrangements. The follow-up to her critically acclaimed 2015 record, Have You in My Wilderness, it takes as its starting point a line from a 2009 short story by writer Etel Adnan: "I found myself in an aviary full of shrieking birds." It’s a scenario that sounds straight out of a horror movie, but it’s also a pretty good metaphor for life in 2018, with its endless onslaught of political scandals, freakish natural disasters, and voices shouting their desires and resentments into the void. Aviary combines Holter’s slyly theatrical vocals and Blade Runner-inspired synth work with an enveloping palette of strings and percussion that reveals itself, and the boundless scope of her vision, over the course of fifteen songs.
