| Lavalamp Records is the one of
the most hippest music label and total arts production.
We were based in USA in 1988 - 2005, but we removed to Canada and Japan since 2006. |
Lavalamp Records
mainly produces Dance / Trance, Techno, Electronica,
Ambient, Psychedelic and Space Rock and pop . Our artistic focus is not always
the pop music mainstream, in the progressive and experimental hinterlands
where rock meets ethnic, classical meets electronic, pop meets avant-garde,
and so on.
So we have no special limited categorization for music at all, however
we mainly treat the following genre : Space music, Techno, House, Tribal, Psychedelic, Trance, House, Progressive Rock, Underground,
Ambient, Electronica, IDM, Drum'n'Bass, Symphonic, Neo-classical, New Age, Experimental
and etc. |

Records History |
| Lavalamp Records was established
and named by two artists / musician@AQi Fzono
and Hypnotic Twin in 2001. In the late 1980s, they started an underground progressive
trance music group named Psychedelic Plants Research Laboratory. They were also involved
in a psychedelic event called Multimedia Visionquest,
featuring electronic music, tribal music, videodrug and dance. |
| They think that today's music has become too much industrialized
and commercialized. Since 1990s they have had dreamed of establishing
their own label, as a foundation of anti-commercialism where they
can simply and straightly do what they want to do. - Lavalamp Records
realizes this idea. |
| Why "Lavalamp"
? |
| "Lava
Lamp" (OK, not "Lavalamp") is originally
a famous unique psychedelic toy that was popular in the late 1960s.
They named their company / label inspired by this symbol
of psychedelic culture from the decade they were born in. |
| In the US, some people think that
the "hippie" thoughts and way of life have already vanished
and become a kind of fashion, but they do not think so.
They regard them as one of the most important thoughts for 21 Century
- grown in the hippie communes in the US. |
