Kremlin

About

Kremlin was an underground record label active during the early 1980s, operating during a pivotal period for experimental and industrial music in Europe. The label's catalog, though modest in output, reflects the aesthetic priorities of the post-punk and industrial underground, with releases spanning 1981 to 1983. Kremlin's discography demonstrates a commitment to avant-garde and experimental approaches, evidenced by both LP and cassette releases that suggest the label embraced multiple distribution formats common to the era's DIY ethos. The releases "Februari - April '81," "Af/Uit," and "The Angel Will Not Come" on vinyl, alongside cassette-based releases like "Kremlin Party" and collaborative compilation work, indicate the label's engagement with experimental composition and mixed-media approaches. Though details regarding the label's geographic base and founding philosophy remain limited in available documentation, Kremlin's release schedule and format choices position it within the broader European underground music network of the early 1980s, contributing to the period's rich experimental and industrial music landscape.
