As an independent label, Alter prides itself on pushing boundaries and challenging traditional notions of sound. The label's diverse range of artists includes both established musicians and emerging talents, all united by their commitment to artistic exploration.

Distributed in the UK by Cargo Records, Alter continues to make waves in the music industry with its thought-provoking releases. Whether you're a seasoned fan or new to the world of experimental music, Alter offers a captivating listening experience that will leave you inspired and wanting more.

Microcorps is the new project by artist and musician Alex Tucker (Grumbling Fur, Alexander Tucker, Imbogodom) exploring electronics, cello and voice. The debut release Xmit, an eight-track album featuring collaborations with Gazelle Twin, Nik Void, Simon Fisher Turner and Astrud Steehouder.

Tucker’s ever-evolving soundworld continues to unfold with this collection of harsh realms centred around processed electronic systems, strings and vocal manipulations. On the new album, Microcorps employs altered voices, sound synthesis and atomised beat constructions. In a move away from previous projects Xmit investigates erasing the self, removing obvious traits of the hand and voice, and allowing a focus on the humanoid rather than the human. Instead of recognisable lyrics and coherent imagery, Microcorps evolved synthesised voices to generate alternate characters.
