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*, ...).

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.

Double 180 Gram vinyl with download. The much anticipated Domino vinyl re-issue of 'Tragedy' - the hugely celebrated, long out-of-print and intensely coveted debut album by Los Angeles based artist Julia Holter. Originally released in two runs of five hundred copies only on Los Angeles label Leaving Records in November 2011, 'Tragedy' proved to be that year's most captivating, adventurous and inspired debut album and announced the arrival of a major new talent. Inspired by Euripides' Hippolytus, the sheer scope and scale of ambition evident in Tragedy's fifty minutes is staggering. Comprised of voice, synths, drum machines, piano, cello, saxophone, samples, vocoders, ensemble musicians and a chorus, 'Tragedy' is a transcendental amalgamation of avant garde and pop conventions and of organic and electronic compositional forms - an entire universe of a record blessed with its own beautifully peculiar logic. With last year's successor 'Ekstasis' welcoming even more adoring attention to Holter's unique vision and a new record scheduled for 2013, this timely re-issue of 'Tragedy' on the format it was conceived for is essential for the long-seeking collector and newly converted alike.
