Thrill Jockey

Thrill Jockey is an American independent record label that was established in 1992 by Bettina Richards, a former A&R representative at Atlantic Records. Originally based in New York City, the label relocated to Chicago, Illinois in 1995.
With over two decades of experience, Thrill Jockey has become a prominent force in the music industry. Known for its diverse roster of artists and commitment to artistic integrity, the label has consistently released groundbreaking and innovative music across various genres.
Thrill Jockey's catalog includes a wide range of critically acclaimed albums from both established and emerging artists. From experimental rock to electronic music, jazz to folk, the label continues to push boundaries and support unique voices within the industry.

Wrekmeister Harmonies is a project led by Chicago sound and video artist J.R. Robinson, known for his collaborations with other talented musicians. With a unique blend of experimental sounds, Wrekmeister Harmonies has carved out their own niche in the music industry.
Inspired by a diverse range of artists such as Fvnerals, Mamiffer, Locrian, and The Body, Wrekmeister Harmonies pushes boundaries and explores new sonic territories. Their music captures the listener's attention with its haunting melodies and atmospheric compositions.
With influences from genres like drone metal, post-rock, and ambient music, Wrekmeister Harmonies creates immersive experiences that transport listeners to another realm. Their collaborations with renowned artists like Emma Ruth Rundle and Jesu further enhance their musical prowess.

Wrekmeister Harmonies’ new album, The Alone Rush, their first as the core duo of JR Robinson and Esther Shaw, is a hauntingly intense and dark meditation on death and isolation, whose concise compositions carry an emotional heft without the orchestrated bombast of their previous four albums. The Alone Rush retains Wrekmeister Harmonies’ expansive and ambitious aesthetic, blending waves of ethereal keyboards, haunting string melodies, and crescendos of dissonance, but now turns central focus towards Robinson’s deep, rich, and soothing vocals. The Alone Rush features guest performances by Thor Harris (Swans), and was recorded by acclaimed New York producer Martin Bisi (Sonic Youth, John Zorn, Lydia Lunch).
