About
Hula was an experimental and industrial music project active in the 1980s underground music scene. Based on their prolific output in 1987, the group released multiple cassettes through Red Rhino Records, a label known for supporting avant-garde and post-punk adjacent acts. Their releases, including Voice, Threshold, and Cut From Inside / Murmur, showcase an approach rooted in noise, experimental sound design, and dark ambient textures characteristic of the era's more uncompromising underground movements. The project's emphasis on atmospheric and abstract sonic exploration positioned them within the broader industrial and experimental music communities of the period. While documentation of Hula remains sparse, their catalogue reflects the DIY ethos and cassette culture that defined much of 1980s experimental music distribution. The group's work on Red Rhino Records places them alongside other experimental acts engaged in pushing the boundaries of conventional song structure and production methods.
