Label GB

Sub Pop

Short for "Subterranean Pop" 

The label was an outgrowth of [a=Bruce Pavitt]'s Olympia, WA based (print) fanzine, which became the well respected cassettezine of the same name. 

After his move to Seattle he ran a music column in the Seattle Rocket also called Sub Pop.

After initial forays into the record label world with a [a=Green River] 7" (not officially on Sub Pop) and the Sub Pop 100 LP, the label exploded onto the indie scene with four influential colored vinyl 7"s which included [a=Mudhoney]'s "Touch Me I'm Sick" which made the year-end top 10 playlist of nearly every music journalist in the world.

Subsequent hyping of the label in the English music press put them on the map, and grunge was born.

Label-Code is 03159; rarely found printed on releases (basically only on releases manufactured/licensed by Warner/WEA Germany)

The Helio Sequence is an indie rock duo hailing from Portland, Oregon. Their music seamlessly blends electronic and psychedelic elements into a dreamy and humanist aesthetic. With their unique sound, they have carved out a distinct place in the music scene.
Similar to artists like Rogue Wave, Ambulance LTD, and French Kicks, The Helio Sequence has garnered a dedicated following. Their music resonates with fans of Say Hi, Menomena, Someone Still Loves You Boris Yeltsin, Pinback, and The American Analog Set.
Listeners who enjoy Telekinesis, Tapes 'n Tapes, Sea Wolf or The Long Winters will also find something to love in The Helio Sequence's discography. Other notable similar artists include Wolf Parade, Delta Spirit, Longwave,Broken Social Scene,and The Sea and Cake.

The self-titled sixth album by Portland, OR's The Helio Sequence is a renewed push forward for the band, depending on an effortless kinetic energy. After creating their previous album, 2012's 'Negotiations', through a long, introspective, the band wanted to try a new, open and immediate process. There's a delightful candour to The Helio Sequence, an openness that is rare for a band about to enter its third decade. The album was recorded and produced by the band in their Portland studio. LP includes MP3 coupon.
