Interchange

About

Interchange was an independent record label active during the early 1980s, operating during a formative period for experimental and underground music. Based on available discography, the label focused on cassette releases as its primary format, reflecting the DIY aesthetic and accessibility that defined independent music distribution of that era. The label's catalog included both artist-specific releases and compilation projects, suggesting a curatorial approach to experimental sound. Notable releases include works associated with Cyclades, which received multiple releases through the label, alongside compilation efforts that gathered diverse experimental voices. The 1982-1985 release window positions Interchange within the broader post-punk and industrial underground movements, though specific details regarding the label's founding, philosophy, and geographic base remain limited in available documentation. The label's commitment to cassette distribution and experimental material indicates alignment with the underground music community's values of artistic freedom and accessible production methods during the early 1980s.
