Overview
Overview
The label has tried to present sonic phenomena that have rarely been heard and rarely if ever been released on CD, such as the wind of the Patagonia region of South America, singing sand in Japan, booming sand in Mongolia, plumbing apparatuses in southeast Asia, physics labs at Harvard University, Christmas tree lights, and electric fish. The label's roster includes Arve Henriksen, Francisco López, Maggi Payne, Andrew Deutsch, Taku Sugimoto, Steve Roden, Bernhard Günter, and Arsenije Jovanović. And/OAR has three label series as well as several sub-series of releases. And/OAR is considered the main label series. Either/OAR was started in 2009 to explore instrument-based, avant-garde, improvised music and composed music. MOAR was founded in 2008 to explore genre-blurring electronic music
