About
Aerosol P&P was an independent record label active in the early 1980s, operating primarily through cassette releases. The label's catalog reflects an eclectic approach to experimental and avant-garde music, releasing eight titles between 1981 and the mid-1980s. The roster and aesthetic suggest an engagement with conceptual and pedagogical approaches to sound, as evidenced by titles such as "Tapes that Teach" and "Free Music," alongside more abstract works like "Afrocalypse Now!" and "A Poet Can Cling To His Nonsense, But I Won't Stay The Night." The label's emphasis on cassette format was typical of independent underground labels of the era, allowing for low-cost production and direct distribution to niche audiences. While specific geographic details remain unclear from available documentation, Aerosol P&P represents the broader DIY ethos of early 1980s experimental music communities. The label's output suggests an interest in the intersection of music, language, and conceptual art, positioning it within the broader experimental and underground music landscape of its period.
