Focused Silence (Label)

Focused Silence is an independent record label, publisher and music supervisor, releasing and licensing various electronic, folio and jazz music since 2016. What began as a playful interaction between electronic music and experimental art projects has developed over the years under the tutelage of music lovers and label entrepreneur Andy B into a multi-faceted international artists’ portfolio with an astonishing output. Focused Silence’s current pool of artists encompasses Jazz and electronic music artists such as Sheffield-based multi-instrumentalist Tantric Doctors to iPad musician, David Smith (the Oxford Ambient Collective). The label’s first release was Orb In A Field. The label started so that the participants of the workshop could download the work they did upon completion – and to make it available for their loved ones. The label then grew into a field recording label before amalgamating with the deceased Artapes Productions.
