Background
Background
Founded in 2012 by Benjamin Schurr, BLIGHT. Records has released works by artists with influences ranging from experimental pop to electronic and industrial. The label has garnered attention for its "embrace of experimentalism" and a tendency to "shift away from genre-specific releases and toward a melting pot of musical and visual ideas." Washington City Paper describes the label as "a creative collective where like-minded musicians move fluidly between each other’s projects," even as such projects retain their own distinct identities. Electronic elements are explored throughout a number of the label's releases. Examinations of identity, politics, gender and sexuality can also be found frequently across albums.
