About
S*Core, a cornerstone of Japan's avant-garde electronic scene, began its journey in 1962. With a focus on tape manipulation and ambient textures, its sound is a dissonant landscape. Each recording a synthetic exploration. Releases like "Undersong" (Underground Organisations) and "Alter" (Afflict Records) exploit the cassette format, delivering regimented soundscapes that pulse with angular precision. S*Core's collaborations with artists such as Bogart + S·CORE punctuate its position within the underground, a propulsive force in a network that spans labels like Corrosive Tapes and Morpheus Editions. The project's club-ready, yet introspective sonic evolution is mirrored in tapes like "Gush" (Extreme) and "Deformation" (Tapes For Masses). Despite its niche listenership, S*Core's influence resonates through the corridors of experimental music, a testament to the enduring vitality of tape-based soundscapes.
